hmmm, so, say i was thinking of selling my car?

1996 R33 GTSt Series 2, Black 60,000 k's

how much should i ask for it - i dont wanna ask too much, but, on the other hand, i dont wanna ask too little? im thinking of advertising in the next few weeks - trading post etc...

It's as my signature says, with an Apex'i Timer, and thats about it - oh yeah, and aussie spec head unit

I know that this brings the subjective element into play, but, it is in immaculate condition - ie interior, paint etc... he he but then again, i no everyone says that...

so, opinions?...

Thanks everyone

MrR33: First peice of advice I can give you is ignore the critics that think your price is to high. There are many critics out there that think they can buy it from some other guy or direct from japan at a fraction of the cost.

As a guide, GOOD quality low km' series 2's (there arent many in the good category) sell for up to $29,000 at a dealer - bear in mind they provide warranty and some peace of mind as opposed to buying private.

If your car contains minimal mods, I would advertise for $25,000

You know what condition your car is in and therefore how much you should get.

I recently sold my 1996 model and was fortunate enough to find a buyer that appreciated the car and loved it and got the price I wanted. (> $30K). The car had 60,000kms on the clock, recaros, 18 inch wheels, carbon bonnet etc.

Hopefully you arent in a rush to sell, the market isnt easy at the moment either

Best of luck with the sale

Hey there

I bought my line in december (94 ser 1) I searched high and low to get a good deal for an r33 and paid 22, although this was from a dealer with 3 yr warranty. It came with new blowoff, dual boost and air pod, an exhaust, sunroof, kit, mags and 66k. it was a good price at the time, and i guess it still is good value. however this is a series 1, and Im not sure on series 2 prices, but just thought I would post to give you an idea.

Wow, its hot on your planet BAO2ME.

Varies between 147,093,676 and 151,921,696.00 between Jan and July.

So PranK was right for a change....price of an r33 gtst varies depending on whether its summer or winter too!

    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
