Not sure, But I saw an Evo 4 for I think 26K..

Theres a nice VII on ebay right now.. Teh bids like 17k or something..

Evo 3's and 2's and 1's are Bleh IMO. They look like old junky sentras.. I like the V's and VI's a lot.. then the VII's, the VIII's, and IX's

Thats the stock kit that the EvoIII comes with, only thing changed is the rims.
I dunno I guess different people have different tastes, I honestly dislike all skylines until the GTR 34, I hate looking at a skyline without the kit, but I guess that's just my opinion.

I am in the process of talking to someone about bring some GT-R's over and making Fed legal..

Hoping to get some loans out or something. I am registered as a worker for my fatheer's dealership though, so I probably could.

Anyways, How much would a R33 Gt-R.. nice condition.. or a R34 GT-R cost in your area?
If i can settle this, maybe you could perhaps help me out and get some and send them over.. Would make some money off of this too..

I see..
Well we only have like 1 or 2 R34 GTRs here so I dunno how much they go for.
I know someone was willing to sell a R33 GTR nice condition for 10,000KYD over here though, this car had a GT35R set-up installed also.
Thats about $11,900 USD.

Well I got a call from the guy a few minutes ago, and he wants me to come down today..because he doesnt have time.

What should I offer him? I kinda think 30K is steep for the car, being bone stock, and just a GTS-T.. if it was a GT-R then deffinetly, or if it had sa few mods and of course a LOT better interior... the inside looks like a 91 240SX does inside.

Anyone know where I could get cheap racing seats for the car too? I found some for the front for like 300 on ebay with shipping.. Cheap no name brand, but idc.. as long as it looks nicer, and hols me in better..
Know where I could get rears though?

So how much should I offer him up for it?

Ummm, is this the same car???

If so, 30K is alittle steep considering he's asking 15K or trade for a Honda Element....

Well, im going to have a talk with him..hahahah
He emailed me those pics... I knew I saw it somewhere before though.

Well then its a hell of a deal at 15k, and im getting right on it. I can easily flip this and make a good 10-15 Geez..

But why did he tell me around 30 for it? O_o
