R32 = Hotcakes

R33 = Rolling tumbleweed

Probably due to the fact r33s are so common and now you can get compliance for $1200 the market is flooded.

We don’t like to touch 33s for this reason unless it’s a nice colour, manual and overall in very good condition

On the other hand the 32s looks like people can’t get enough. We still get calls for 32s that we sold a month prior.

And it is this reason you can buy a 33gtst for 14k and cheaper and 32 gtst for about the same price.

$1200 compliance? wtf?

Yep, there is something like 80+ workshops doing 33s at the moment. So add another $300 for tyres and you have a full compliance.

Sorry I don’t know all my 33 info off by heart, we don’t do that many of them (we do mainly euro stuff).

But the $1200 price is a definate.

True but I think you may need a separate certificate to comply them.

You nee a separate certificate for 2 door, 4 door, gtr etc except for non turbos which can be brought it.

roflafagus... $1200 for R33 compliance... $1200 for a 15 year old R32 maybe. And wtf different price for S1 and S2... that's a new one. You don't do many of them, yet you charge half the going price anywhere in Australia? That dosen't add up.

I'd like some concrete evidence of this to believe it, and if its true then this compliancer will be getting a shit load of work.

OK,

Well I got some more info; compliance doesn’t matter if it’s S1 or S2.

We can DEFINATLY get it done for $2200 + tires so even in this case it can be done cheaper.

And I have been told from a VERY reliable sources that it can now be done for $1250 (not $1200 like I previously said) + tires, but I guess this price is not 100% confirmed as we have not had the chance to bring in a 33 and get it complied there.

Either way if someone was to import a 33 through us we would defiantly follow this $1250 price up. Worst case scenario you can get it done for $2200.

Still a saving.

So how much would it cost to get a 1998 R33 Series 2 GTS25t though you guys from start to finish?

lol, im not offended, i just think its stupid to say that they are the least desireable, and everyone has them, in the same sentence no less..

Maybe he means less desireable in terms of looks?

Most people don't necessarily buy R33s because they think they look better, you'll find most people like the look of R32s and R34s. But when talking about the GTST/GT-T market, its hard to go past the R33. Unlike the R32, its RB25 equiped, more spacious also its almost as good as an R34 and much cheaper. So the most pracitcal/cost efficient choice becomes the R33, hence their popularity.

Also compliance for $2200 is cheap. I had my old 33 done for $2500 w/o tyres, about a year ago.....the workshop wouldn't do R34s by any chance Mecha? I'm thinking about importing one soon....

Also $1250? wow. that would be cheap, but i don't think it can be done, 15yo compliance is at least 1000 bux these days.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
