hey, welcome to the forum.

There are alot of things to consider. best bet is to call just car and ask them for a quote, say you are considering buying one and they will let you know what you should expect to pay. You can also do online quotes at any of the insurance websites.

cheers

I'm 22 and have been insured since 17 with no accidents or liscence suspensions and it costs me 1600 for a stock one with rims and a decent stereo. I also got a quote for when I've done all the stuff I want and it is 1800. (Turbo back exhaust, FMIC, Aftermarket computer, suspension, sway bar, strut brace) That was through Just Car.

Less than I expected. Suprising thing was, it would have cost me 2200 for a GTIR pulsar.

its hard to find a standerd r33 ay?? most of them have had things done to them, il start looking in a couple weeks, :rolleyes:

Yeah, there was less of a selection of stock ones, and heaps of the modified ones were sweet, but I have to meet clients a lot and generally arrive and leave in my car, so a really loud car with a crazy bodykit can give a bad impression to the people I have to deal with. So a sleeper is the only option for doing it up.

If you want some the modifications, it's generally heaps cheaper to get one with them already done (the purchase price wouldn't be cheaper, but in the long run it ends up cheaper) Obviously make sure to get an inspection done to check that it isn't stuffed.

A lot of dealers offer a 3 year warranty (for a price)

Goodluck

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!

      From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.

      That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.

      I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.

      If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
