no idea to be honest... i personally would have paid up to $13-14k for it.

there's not much of a market for them really, it's flooded with $8-11K garbage. not to mention the fact that every other wannabe would rather/can get a 200rwkw for next to nothing.

the clean, straight, low km, stock examples are far and few between.

Hey just recently sold my R33 gts25 for $10.2k to the gf had it advertised for 11.5k but was getting next to no response. 1994, full 2.5 inch zorst, pod, steering wheel, 18s body kit and 92xxx genuine kms.

When selling mine found there was not much of a market for non turbo's so u should be able to pick one up quite cheap-cheap i say!

i payd $11,500 for a 97 series 2 r33 non turbo AUTO. very very clean, from a car dealer, shitty 4 month warranty but anything is better then nothing and im the first owner in australia.

the reason i got an auto was because it was alot cheaper then the manual and for a first car i really couldnt be botherd getting a manual license,il drive manual when its worth driving (turbo)

anyway all in all mine is in very good condition and is perfect for what i need it for. a daily driver, something that looks good and has a little more power then most and is very easy to drive with decent fuel consumption.

for what its worth dont get an r32 they are very old (almost 20 years old!!!) and becomming very outdated. especially if your dealing with non turbo/non performance skylines then newer is better.

sold my n/a about 4 months ago.

it was a black 1993 r33 gts4 automatic.

had a full kit.

87,000Ks

excellent condition all round, interior was closest thing to brand new.

dual airbags (driver/passenger)

sold it for $8000 with rwc and 3months rego.

personally i'd never pay more than that for an n/a skyline.

pod filter, exhaust, extractors is alot more grunt then a r33

somehow i doubt that that would give you a 26kw gain. if it did it would only make it similar in power to a 33. then do the same mods to a 33 and it will have much more power than the 32.

stock NA 33 = 104kw/ton

stock NA 32 = 94kw/ton

stock vx commodore = approx 98kw/ton

I bought my 33 from a dealership on the gold coast, MJR Motorsports, They are excellent for importing stock clean low k's cars.

Mine is a 1997 R33 GTS25 Series 2, It had 40,xxx KLMS when i bought it, ive done 4000 so far, it was 100% stock when i bought it, So far ive only put a cat back exhaust on it.

It dynoed in at 160HP/116KW At the wheels with the cat back exhaust only.

I paid $16,500 for it, A bit pricey yes, But if you see my car you would understand, Exterior, Interior and engine bay is next to showroom condition.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
