Iam currently looking at buying a car, ive a look at a few websites for prices n stuff.

Just wondering what peoples thoughts in here are on what they think are ok prices for r33 gts25t either 97 or 96 manual coupes, either stockers or with minimal mods in sa both private and dealer.

Cheers

Brad

Yeh as Howie said.........and then a S1 is pretty cheap these days also. Just remember when buying a car to check the service history and to get a check done on the car to make sure it's mech A1!

Yeah ruffly the price i was thinking for a dealer one for the s2.

Was going to come down to boostworks the other week and have a watch of peoples cars on the dyno, work nights though :P so never got up in time.

Was gonna get inpecta car to do a check when i find a car i like, does boostworx do that sort of stuff as well ?

Yeh you should have come down for a look, we were still there after lunch also!

You might wanna give Shaun a call about that, I'm sure he could, but he is quite busy these days and i don't know what he would charge for that sorta thing!

Boostworx do it, its ~$95 but theres usually a 2 week waiting list as hes a busy guy. I got mine checked at tillbrooks for $100 with a days notice. Wasn't the most thorough check but they did a compression test which was the main thing I wanted.

Had a look around the car yards today was interesting lol , couple of nice ones in redline and sinergy. Weird that redline seems to paint the back part and wheel arches of nearly all the cars they have there, worries me a bit :) Is this a major prob or in the end if mechs look at it and its ok, dont stress about it ?

Sinergy had a nice white s2, had a clear plastic skyline badge on the boot thought they were all ment to be colour coded on the s2's ?

i wouldnt worry about the painted wheel arches and stuff mine came like that from a dealer... also 2 secconds arround the corner from tilbrooks is a little import yard hes got a couple of nice lines go say hello to him hes a very nice chap too

Vince is the proprietor... younger guy with looooong dreads.

Very honest and courteous.

yes very courteous he pointed me in the direction of import spares cause he couldnt help we had a yarn over a few skylines :(

I have a series 2, white in colour. Although my intentions are to keep it, everything is for sale at the right price. ;)

likewise...offer me the right price and ill put new tyres, breaks, and tune it for u :D

    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.
