Bike riders budget more than that.....for a push bike...with all the modes

Get a loan from your mother,brother,sister,aunt...whoever.....

Lift it to 13+K and then you can get what your looking for....and it won't be out of the bargain basement bin...or look like it.

bikes are out of teh question.

and NO i'm not saying r32's are overpriced just because they're too expensive for me.

like i said i've seen and know of decent examples of r32s and r33s that have gone for that much.

thanks mate will ring up about this rs.

i've owned turbo 4's and have an idea of what kind of petrol turbo 6's drink. nowhere near as bad as rotors....

Strongly disagree. I don't think there's a decent well sorted R33 out there for $12k. If you do believe that, then good luck with any of the cars you buy :laugh:

Get a bike man... that ticks all your boxes

Its fast, cheap, $20 petrol a week (if that), running costs are a fraction of a car and you can park the damn thing anywhere. Not to mention a lot of chicks get a tiny little wet when they hear the word 'motorbike'. Your need for a $8000 weapon of a ride problems are solved

yeah why is that....couple of chics i was talking to, they asked me what do i drive - so i said skyline, their faces didnt change, and then i added "and i ride a motorbike to work" and their eyes just lit up....i dont understand it lol....

so this is why the skyline was sold...... :laugh:

chicks like to ride things...

Save your self some more money and buy a decent R32/R33.

I bought mine for $13k and it had its fair share of problems in the first couple of months. I'd hate to see what an $8k r32 problems are...

Every R32/R33/import car needs some work done on it, so unless you have any emergency money ontop of the $8k you might end up in trouble.

Pulsar SSS with a GTI-R conversion? :)

guys, i think i might have found something. although its damaged but end product should/would be sweet as. we'll see how it goes...

s13 either the 1.8 or 2.0 turbos will be around 8k right?

yeah i've looked at some 180sx's but i dunno i don't think they're worth spending any money on at all :happy:

lololol i just sold my auto r33 gts4 hence the shit budget :)

yeh i got a bit of cash saved so ill be using that to upgrade when i sell mine good luck with the searching mate

thanks dude. yeah thats the thing i sold my gts with the intentions of buying a series2 gtst, but yeah didn't work out as i planned :D

my tx5 take a look..there good cars.. do a search for them..

only thing its missing is gtir drivetrain :/

am i asking for too much here? i mean all i want is a yellow topless ferrari 355 for 8grand.... :sleep:

Like everyone else has stated, you will be pretty hard pressed trying to find a good Jap turbo car for 8k, particularly ones that are 1989 or newer. The only thing that will probably come close is a CA18DET Silvia, or a f**ked 180sx, but they will need a bucketload of work. Same with the R32.

You best stretch your budget a little. When I bought my 180sx, I was originally looking at spending around $16-17k, but all the 180's I looked at needed a slight amount of work, whereas the one I bought, was for $19.5k, and haven't had ANY major troubles yet, and it's still going strong.

Good luck with whatever you buy though :)

Here you go...what a beast for $8k...

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=155069

just ignore the 170,000kms, and the overall condition of the car itself and its a bargain.....thats what all R33's should sell for...

What a pig! Actually could probably be cleaned up and be pretty good...

What's the deal with this... -Wheels & Tyres: 19" mag wheels on frount, 16"mags on rear, do have both sets if required

No thanks, I like the look of 19's and 16s together... haha!

    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
    • There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU. 
    • Any idea where I can get genuine MAF apart from used ones? I can't find any only for GTRs and unfortunately that price is not in my budget 🤣 I might gap my plugs down and put my splitfires in, they were only in for a year or so before I started the rebuild
