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.

http://www.aussiecarcompliance.com.au/cars4sale.htm

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.

      The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.

      Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.

      Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks

      M35 VQ25DET starter motor

      By iain_ST44GA · Posted

      Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..

      I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.
