Buy a BF auto, then get $5,000 and go to your local mafia associate and pay them 5K to whak someone with a 10 second car and steal thier fast partsIf there is another way I'd like to hear it..............

You can make anything fast but the question is how much will it cost.A late 06 BF auto will see you in the mid 11's for about 4-5K, just to compare a mate of mine bought an R34 GTR few months ago and after spending 8K on the turbos alone plus all the other things (another 5-6K) is hoping to get in to the 11's with a 7K rpm launch control. And that's a GTR a GTS would need a fortune to see 11's.Skylines are just hyped up, GTR is a GREAT car but it's not a drag car, is a very quick all round car though but people have a wrong idea about them.Another mate of mine has done a 12.7 in a 33 GTS after going for a full rebuild and bigger turbo, although it wasn't running 100% on the night he will see mid 12's at best when it's running perfectly.Skylines are good cars but not quick in straight line as your Asian neighbor would led you to believe.

There rare but there are goods ones out there. And those in bf t's running low times generally have spent there fair share to get there to. Trust me!!!On the other hand they do attract the di(k head factor of the population as well but im sure there would be more than there fair share in T's. But not me though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
