Am i asking too much? i paid $15k for it a over year ago and have only added 15000kms since then even tho its a daily. i also had a new HD clutch put in that wasnt cheap and new speakers, headunit etc.

why is it that the highest offer that i have gotten is $11500? sure i may need it sold soon but with me still owing a bit less than $5k on it, it would only leave me with about $5k for a another car and to get out of this shithole of a town. im gunna get pissed if i keep getting these stupid offers compared to what im asking.

Would have thought it was a reasonable price. I would say your hard points of sale would be the front bar, side stickers and the dodgy photo quality. Try to get some better quality photos. Take your p plate off and I think remove the stickers. Then get some good photos. Good luck with it

Too right, shopping lists on the side of cars is a major deterrant for most people. I never look at cars with "performance stickers" on the side, it means there is a better chance that the driver thrashes the car and feels the need to race everyone he lines up against at the lights.

you will eventually get a resonable price. just got to be a little patient and be prepared to negotiate. i was luck enough to pick my 1.5 95 line with 88,oooks for only 11. then i see some people selling stock 32s for 12.. so it all depends on the right buyer for your price.. some people are desparate, others arent. luck of the draw when it comes to a few thousand either side of the general market value. good luck with it anyway.!

theres a 10 sec gts-t here some where i saw for $17/18 k with over $20k of mods! i think $14k is a great price for a series 1 . spare a thought for us poor buggers that have paid $25k for series 1 6 to 7 years ago and spent $20 plus k. theres always people being bent over harder than you ! i could have bought a 95 gtr for $65k back in 2000 but instead i bought my series 1 gts -t for $25k. now 95 gtr are gong for $25 plus k!!!

Stand your ground & be patient as others have mentioned .... besides if the car yard near my house can try and sell a rough as 93 S1 with hectik chromies for $19,990 ;) (which has a deposit taken sign on it!) I don't see why you won't get $14k or close to it............

Unfortunately all the people that are desparate to sell are pushing the price down to $11-12k for an R33 with a few mods. So really, not much you can do.. There will always be somebody willing to let the car go for a stack less than you are, simply because there are so many around, and lots of others desperate to sell.

Being 'in the country' doesn't help either, as it's a couple of hours drive from melb if people want to look at it.

we all should not let this happen, no one should sell cheap. if all skyline owners didnt let them sell cheap, they could keep the market steady.

buyers cant buy a skyliner33gtst for 11k if no one will sell them one for 11k. if u catch my drift.

    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.
