I don't think I'd buy through an import business anyway...most of them seem a bit dodgy, as do the vehicles they have on offer...esp the ones that you think have reasonable price tags. If and when I get an R33, I'd prefer not to spend huge amounts of cash getting it roadworthy and/or respectable looking.

Hey thanks for the info Ydawak! much appreciated...sounds like I should stear clear if the dude is thrashing the shite out of his car.

hay most of us thrash cars, but it depends how you do it. Some people are just plain rough.

YEAH make sure you check out any car before you buy it.

Thats right and it also comes down to services and maintanence of the vehicle as well.

You can drive a car hard and have fun but still look after it :dry:

But i'll give one word of advice, dont by a bike from me :O:O:O:O

gotta agree with grandmasterb :dry:

R32's in that price range you will find a nice car.

R33's ??? That'd be an auto 93 model in TAS.

I even thouut getting back into an R32, if it wasn't for the 2ltr!!! lol

Hey all I'm a new forum user, I recently purchused my first R33 after spending a few years with rotarys, namly Rx7's but am happy I have made the big switch! I'm located here in Devonport. I just wanted to "wade" into the war of the 13k R33. I recently bought my R33 for a little under 13K it is immac inside better than reasonable outside, low Ks, great mags and new tyres, mostly stock and hasnt been thrashed, so as someone was saying if you look hard enough.... but the thing is you have to be patient!. I am looking forward to chatting with you guys in tassie/echanging info as i am relitvly new to skylines, but not a complete dumbass!

used to be "Rotar On"-- now " Keen, Willing & Eager 2 DRIFT" by the way I have lots of immac R33 parts I scored of a bloke who wrote his off! dont know if i did this properly but hers a pic of my old bus that i decided not to put a S6 13B TT and spent the money on my new R33, I am glad i did it! will post some pics of R33 when get orginised, cheers Damo

Good find!

Ok guys...(maybe) upping the ante here! What would $15k get me in the way of an R33?

Also, I saw an ad for a 1994 Silver SZ Supra for sale in Launceston for $15k (130,000kms, 3inch ex., Pod, 17inch rims & a body kit of some description), wondering if anyone knows about the car in question.

Cheers!

Ok! I've upped to ante $2k from $13k.

I'm now willing to spend up to $15k on the right R33 or R32. Anyone know of some potential cars??

If you put a little more to it you would be able to look at somthing along the lines as Toffs r33 4door (think he still has it for sale) or the one thats forsale in the tas section.

There is plenty around cobber you just have to do the research.

Like Leigh said there is Toff's 4 door (one very shmick car) and Nathan's open to offer on his.

I can think of 3 32's for sale off the top of my head that are very clean/quick cars and i can also think of about 4 33's.

Have you spoken to any importers at all to see whats around???

Check out Aussie Car Complance. I got my car from them.

If you do not wish to have warranty and 12 months region, take $1000 off. so that means there are a few there to look at. EXCEPT THE wine red R33 S1.5, that is sold, to me.

    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
