It's your choice at the end of the day!

Good luck with the sale or break!

Why not get a Type S and transfer the best bit over and sell the original car on. You will make a loss but will save you money in the long run.

id look for a jdm one as they are 255bhp standard over the uk 239 but easy to squeeze power out of ether

Cool idea but don't have the cash for two cars. Would get a complete arse kicking if I bought another car, supposed to be buying a house in a couple months.

I could probably break and borrow my dads spare car for a month or two but that's reliant on all the parts selling quickly which realistically isn't going to happen.

Argh! Confused!

£3000 also gets you a 300zx twin turbo or a gto twin turbo these days.

then why do it now! the lude is at an all time low and bits just are not selling that strongly wait for the market to improve a bit right after xmas isnt a great time to get shut its a buyers market. What would happen if you were forced to sell at rock bottom and didnt have enough to buy the replacement ?
