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.

    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
    • Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, i will do abit more digging. I am missing a blue relay near the ECU connector... so i will chase that up in the next few days as well  
    • https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
