hey guys,

i'm new to the site and new to skylines in general.

i've had my Ps for a couple of months now and am looking for a first car.

i'm going to have a look at a 93 model R33 GTS4 NA automatic in a couple of days. the guy didn't give me a price he said come have a look at it then we'll talk.

the car is black, stock standard except for the full body kit. it has 80,000Ks and from what he said it's in immaculate condition not a single scrach on the body.

what i wanna know is how much should i be paying for it.

since i have no idea what these cars cost i thought it might be a good idea to ask on a skyline website.

any help is greatly appreciated

cheers

id say leave it and look for a manual one. unless you want and auto and you only have an auto licence.

IMO it isnt a skyline unless its a turbo and manual :P

i would say being black and in 'immac' condition, and also where you are located will also affect the price. $10k-$11k anything more and hes dreaming.

hey thanks for the replies guys.

i went and had a look at it this morning. i can tell you that i've never seen a 13 year old car in such good condition. as hard as i looked i just couldn't find a single scratch on it. the inside is just as good.

i don't really want an auto but yes i have an auto license and would probably keep this until i get off my Ps.

the guy is my cousin's cousin and he's asking $7,500 for it.

what do you guys think?

G'day...

I'm in the same situation.. Yet i'd be onto my second car... FRIGGIN COROLLAS! anywayz.. If i were u i'd buy it, thats a fair bargain for a GTS-4. I'm looking at a 1995 GTS-4 and the guy is asking $12500 for it..

If you don't want it i'll be happy to take it off his hands haha..

give it one of the mechanical checks. racv do it and so do a few others. although it may cost up to $200 its better than needing to spend a few k when something goes horribly wrong.

go right over it too as the imac exterior could of been an el cheapo respray. check the inside of the doors etc just in case.

Or it could be the best buy ever and you gotta jump on the chance :) do a mech check tho. important when buying any second hand car.

    • That looks good, but I think you're going to need much beefier side skirts now.
    • They are daft and there's a reason it never caught on. Steering feel? We don't need no stinking steering feel!
    • I gotta pull you up on this. It's driving me crazy. A shutter is something that closes, like over a window or in a cmera. The word you want is shudder. That LSD is clearly f**ked. Take it to a diff shop and get it disassembled and examined by an expert. YOu might have plates welded together or something equally crazy.
    • Define "starting to fail". Wy not just rebuild them?
    • Check the Nistune doco. There are a few assumptions being made here that might not be valid. I will list the things that occur to me: Base map. Base map for what? Base map for Z32? Then the cranking pulse width is probably wrong for an RB25. The extra 500cc of capacity might well be enough to prevent it from catching. Base map for RB25? I don't think you can load one of those into a Z32. You have to just make the settings correct for an RB25 in the Z32 base map. That is either K or the TIM to get the pulsewidth right. Loom. You bought a loom for an RB. And you plugged it into a Z32 ECU. Did you make sure that any iwre differences were swapped. From memory, there's at least a couple. And as per the others, I would suggest making sure that the fuel pressure is correct while cranking and that the injectors are actually flowing as expected. They really must come out and go on the bench, unless you do find that you have messed up as per above points. I would also suggest watching in Nistune to make sure that everything is reading correctly. That the correct binary flags are raised at the right time (like the crank signal), that there's no stupid values in K or TIM. That you have not got mismatched firmware for the ECU and/or a wrong image loaded.
