  1. I sat in this car back when it was showed at the Melbourne motorshow back when the 350Z's were released, I was exciting thinking they'd be releasing the Nismo version here :).....but no :rofl:

    wicked ride!! I'd own one in a heartbeat. Just sitting in it an walking round it was great!

  2. go to a toyota forum an they'll say....who cares :rofl:

    im a skyline driver, stock to stock the Z's the go. but still, if there was a fresh P plate hero behing the wheel of the Z an Jim Richards peddling the gts-t....theres too many things that can account to what would "actually" win at the time it 'actually' happened

  3. 350Z claimed power output of 206kw (there are higher spec ones than that)

    gts-t clamied power of 187kw

    are they auto or manual? both have new tyres or old? male or female drivers? expierienced or average drivers? is it raining or dry? is one driver 150kg an the other 60kg? how much luggage do they have on the boot? how much fuel is each car carrying? are they both aware there racing? or is one tearing off thinking their winning an the others just driving off normally & unware?

    so many different factors that really either one could beat either one

  4. as someone thats in the market for a skyline right now and that happens to be the first car off my p's, i have some very specific tastes. Two of them are black/silver with a sunroof, in a 96/97 series II. I can't speak for everyone that would be looking at your car, but I assume theres others there like me who would not bother even looking at your car because of it being white. Personally I would spend more on a stock car with these features, than a modded white one without them.

    what if i paint it silver, install a sunroof, put series2 headlights/bonnet/front bar on it.....then would you buy it for $20K....:D it even has series 2 seats in it

  5. so far its in:

    the classifieds section of Ebay

    Carpoint.com

    Carsales.com

    Tradingpost.com

    The Melbourne trading post paper

    The local Geelong newpaper classifieds

    skylinesaustralia.com

    boostcruising.com

    calaisturbo.com

    treamloose.com

    think ive covered a fair few area's?

    ABO_BOB: yeah i've never really been a big fan of my rims either, but there top quality & light weight so ive never managed to change em

    SNO33: I could get rid of the rear bar, i still have the stock one in the shed, just buy some neat pods an slap em on maybe?

    RB26....back to throwing good money at bad....

    guess the right buyer will come along eventually an it'll be exactly what he/she is looking for. But do can i be bothered waiting for that person? I'm not in any real rush

  6. lol....no offence taken. Whats wrong with black BBS wheels? Whats wrong with stock mirrors? and the Veilside rear bar isnt everyones taste, but you dont like 400R sides an a genuine GTR front bar?

    i think it looks neat simple & nice.....but maybe im wrong (or maybe you think it still looks the same as my signature picture an havent looked at my for sale thread?)

    :D

  7. Im only really selling as I am bored of it, 33's are great cars to drive & modify, but ive had it for over 6 years and want something new, something a bit more hi-tech, something newer, something really different to a 33gts-t. So im in a loose loose situation really. Either drop the price to some stupidly low figure just to get rid of it.......or throw more good money at bad to keep me interested in the car. Either way it'll be loosing money.

    Guess it may not be worth re-spaying it a custom colour, as mentioned that would really only attract younger buyers tending to be more interested in street attention then quality of car. Which unfortunatly now.....is illegal for them to drive on P's anyway. Might just add a Nismo/Mines stripe or something?

    keep the feeback / opinions coming, makes for an interesting read, some very valid points being made thats for sure!

  8. its very hard to get the money these cars are worth these days, I was wondering that if it was a custom colour, would you be more likely to sell it & get a decent price for it??

    whats your opinion?

    my 33 is just white, its an awsome quality car that ive spent heaps of time & money in getting all the right top quality bang for buck mods, yet i've had such little interest. If I gave it a good quality low budget re-spray (lots of friends that are spray painters), think it'd get more interest?

    have you recently sold a Skyline? what colour was it an how long did it take to sell? did you get what you were after for it?

    look forward to seeing people feeback

    cheers
