WTB - N/A R33,180sx

[geordie]

As it say want one of these 10k MAX preferably under and in MUST BE IN NSW with NSW RWC at least, preferably with redgo

Would like 180sx, same deal 10k max prefferably under. I want either of these two vehicles, not picky what ever comes up first. Silvia K would also be considered.

[NuGGeT]

thats a fair ask for the r33

[nisman]

I don't get it ... you want a NA, but a Silvia K would be considered???

Also I think you should reconsider your options with that budget.

If you manage to find a NA R33 for under $10K it will be an absolute POS. Even then you may not have much luck...

A NA 180Sx will be even harder, as these were built from 1996 on and had better interior and round tail lights etc...

Heres a link to a R33 under 10k - http://carpoint.ninemsn.com.au/marketplace...o=1&chkRows=500

I got nothing against turbos i just know that a turbo skyline under 10k.......i would be dreaming..as for a POS under 10k...the link to that one says other wise i think it looks like quite a nice car. I am looking at a r32 tommorrow that fits my order perfectly.....will let you know how i go on that one. Reason for the criteria is basicly i have had alot of problems finding the car i want the most, a 180sx, so i opening up my options as i am partial to the looks of the skyline . So my budget is 10k and i stress the NSW part because i have come across many probs in my painful search for a Nissan import......which basicly is the basis of what i am looking for...some thing that is a nissan and looks sweet. With that said i dont want a N/A silvia. Will add another to the list.....a N/A 300zx. And yeah i have seen them close to my budget for that price aswell......but wrong state...that hopefully clears things up.

Ahhh that car is $9,990 PLUS compliance costs, which for R33's at present is not cheap at all! So there you have it!

Anyway, that place is very close to me, and I have personally seen many of his cars at the panel beater prior to being ready for sale. Yep, they all look good in the yard, but you have no idea of how they once were. This unfortunately is the case with many of the cheap imports on the market...

my 2c:

180's look sh1t compared to skylines and silvia's look even worse so you should narrow it down to a 'line...hehe

i actually looked at that skyline you linked to above about 2-3 months ago when i was looking for my car but the salesman was a d1ck and basically i didn't want a bar of him or his cars. It was about 14k by the time rego and compliance was added on.

i ended up with an r32gtst for 11k after extensive looking. it has genuine 95,000k's and engine+trans in good nick. interior is also v.good. The reason it was cheap was it has no spoiler, side skirts, stereo, and was key'd (about 30cm long) on drivers side.

Basically my point is that with the really bad used car market a car in mehanically good condition is available but you have to take your time and don't go for a 4cyl...

Have you considered a soarer? can get ok cond one for 12k thesedays...

[geordie]

Not complied! isnt it illegal to advertise a non complied vehicle........oh well, like i said i have found a nice sounding r32 gts and i am looking at it tonight. Soarers arent bad but i real keen on nissans, dont know why but they are just great cars. Will get back to on how i go with this line.

[geordie]

Ah disregard this post i now am the proud owner off a r32 gts25 in absolute imaculate condition

[nisman]

congrats man ...

is it auto or man?

manage to pick it up at a good price?

and is it a 4 door? I haven't seen many GTS25 coupes...

[Greg]

awesome man if you ever take it to the drags be sure to post up times because it would be interesting to see the difference between the r32 with its lighter weight compared to the r33 with the same engine.

I expect to see you posting in the NA forums now

cheers mate enjoy your car

[geordie]

Ok heres what i got.......R32GTS25, its a 2 door, auto(i'm lazy), um i hit 70000kms on the way home from picking it up, it came with 12months redgo(NSW) which is what i wanted. It is absolutely imaculate it has one scratch on the body, but no panel damage, the scratch is from a car park, 17" silver mags (nice ones) i got it for $9400.....it is absolutely perfect, the interior is faultless..i'm very pleased.

[geordie]

[geordie]
