Nothing says "prestige" like a 17 year old used Nissan GTS-T.

At that sort of age, all sorts of things on the car will be up for fixing soon. Turbo repairs certainly add to the repair bill, as in it's another thing to be fixed that isn't present on normally aspirated engines.
Honestly, if you don't need the power, why are you even looking at this sort of boganmobile!

*got to many rbs, they are fun but very costly, few simple ways to tell with 25dets, 1 rocket covers, two injectors " purple" 3 oil feed line "should not be ted off near oil filter" 4 usually they are tight in coin hence +t so they usually use a 20det turbo witch says 16v ,but this isn't a + t unless excessive work has been done, mind you for top end performance some +ts go harder than the dets

i had a 96' 2nd gen R33 GTS25T M Spec, always well maintained and never failed me. always done my maintenance to the schedule. If it been treated well it will go well. of course it chewed gas like a mofo so sadly had to part with it. it was fun and i would have bought another well treated one back for the enjoyment. how's the R34 going Horsepower!

It depends on how you drive and maintain it, and how it was driven and maintained before you as to how long shelf life would be. In which case, how expensive to fix can only be asked when you know the type of car you're dealing with and what's wrong with it! And if you don't know someone who's a "handy mechanic" and paying shop fees, then it'll be even more pricey.
What I don't understand though is you saying you don't need the power. What's the attraction in getting a turbo then!

Noone else seems to have any problems with his spelling. It's not like it's unreadable. To be honest, I think someone needs to get off his high horse.
