The skyline has 2 rather large snails backing it up and super short gears, its not such a shock lol

Like when my friend dusted me with his supra on low boost i didnt really think "how did this happen? i have TWICE the displacement of that bitch and TWO more cylinders!!!!" lol

As Killemall said, its all PERSPECTIVE.

I thought you were done street racing.

Good runs either way. I laughed when you started screamin about how you beat him on that first "run".

30k or less is rare, what suprises me is the prices crashed ones go for, its ridiculously high, and im quite sure body parts and etc. are not super cheap to make up for it lol

And there are A LOT of crashed ones too, all always go for crazy prices, i dont get it.

Yea thats all true.

But still at those prices i dont see how buying a crashed one and fixing it up, i mean rebuilt titles would sell for less obviously which just puzzles me unless fenders and other parts can be had for $10 lol

Random rant but that suprises me to no end lol

They only blow up if you launch them. From a roll they do fine with even way more power.

my bad I didnt clairfy..I have that job plus also own a buisness..I could not afford that car off of what I make just from my job. The car plus insurance plus gas is 35% of what I take home a month from my job..

But you are right a 2003 srt10 only sells for 37-42K nowadays..Ive seen a few on ebay/craigs list as low as 36K

This car has made so much money!!!!!

-origional owner bought it for 90K in 2003
-sold it to me for 55K in 2006
-I wrecked it and didnt want to fix it and sold it to a friend for 25K in 2008
-Friend turned it into a show car and sold it back to me for 35K in 2010
-I may be putting her in the paper and I wont sell for a dime under 40K (clean title)

So the car made $205,000.00 from 2003-2010

Or should I say..wow how much did the banks make in interest off this one car in the past 7 years.....

enough of this rant....look forward to the alternate view videos that should be surfaceing very soon

A handful of them blew the trannies when they were first released because people would do 15-20 assisted launches in a row just cuz they could, and the stock launch control program was overly aggressive. They re-tuned it the next year to be slightly less aggressive, and it actually ended up making them quicker IIRC.
