Friend Just Brought A Series 1.5/2? Mspec

[zorb_rules]

Sorry I just had to share a friend of a friend of mine just brought a Series 1.5 or 2 Im not sure of the difference white mspec for like 10k unregistered and without roadworthy.

To me 10k is extremely cheap the thing has been looked over and all that was found was a leaking strut apparently (according to my friend another skyline owner) its clean has the full mspec kit and is untouched..except for rims

Is it just me or is 10k extremely cheap.

I will post up some pics tonight as my brother is a mechanic and is taking it for roadworthy.

Ill also try get her to join the forums.

1.5 come with one air bag, series2 engine from memory, ABS.

Pretty easy to tell the difference, the bonnet, head lights, front bar and interior are all different.

I'm guessing you mean "Type M"

ABS was still optional for 1.5

unregistered R33 with no rwc for 10,000 isn't really "cheap"....

its a 97 model guys whatever that is fro m my looking 97 is very cheap my 94 was 10k

[jake33]

if its 97 then it will be a S2 yeah thats cheap! depending on K's. i got mine series 1 95 (1.5), for 11k in feb with rego and roady and i thoiught i did considerably well. "according" to the odometer it had 88k on it (all numbers are pefectly inline) . im happy with it.

sounds like your mate scored a bargin too. post pics

consider it cheap when the car is roadworthy and registered

fark...the de-preciation on skylines is doin my head in. My series 2 cost me 18 grand when i bought it from a dealer! We need to ship some back to japan to have less for sale...!

[cheez]

i paid 13,500 for mine in june last year, did reasonably well but yeh since these new laws, the price has come down for 33 and up for 32 as p-platers can still drive 32's. ship some back or start burning them lol.

it's ok more and more dickheads are binning them and wrecking for parts.

i definitely see less R32GTRs on the road than 2 years ago

But what i dont understand is wasn't the r33 always illegal to drive on p's?

32's have held there price way too well for my liking...

Yes you're right, either ship em back or keep writing em off! whatever helps to slow the depreciation...;

Not for long,

Ill post up some pics a bit later I just got home from work now and its sitting in the driveway just a bit too dark for soem good pics. Its bloody clean though has 17" advan tri spoke wheels on it and other than that looks stock as a rock.. Ill check the odometer reading etc a lil later and update you all a bit more.

[zorb_rules]

Alright so I just went out and had a look its an 97 has green neons *lol* has JVC head unit as well as stock tape deck,turbo timer, some sort of GPS unit, is definately a series 2 with 89,000km on the clock, has a rear strut brace (do all series 2's have this), and hks super filter air intake setup...

but heres the downer and what I wasnt told....its an auto....so is that still a good price...

[zorb_rules]

OKay I know this sounds really dumb but series 2's still need to be compliance yeah?? I cant see a compliance plate anywhere under the hood of this thing there normally green and sat somewhere either on the strut top or firewall yeah? Could be why it was so cheap...

yeah all imports need compliance man. check for a pink compliance plate too...(but i think thats only if its less than 10 years old - im sure though)

[zorb_rules]

its not my car so to be honest im not too concerned but I am worried for her a 97 auto with mods for 10k is cheap as it is could be due to no compliance..

i did the old look for a rego sticker mark on the window couldnt see that either.

[zorb_rules]

Just to add the car still talks to me in japanse has like a japanes rego sticker on the windscreen and has what looks liek an aussie vin number printed next to the strut tower but theres not compliance plate??
