How much was the car?

well i got it from a car import yard so it cost abit more than private importing, and i had it checked to see if it was wound back by them no scratches not any thing wrong at all with it either, it was at $21,500 but got it down to $19,000 on roads and all, surprisingly the skyline is cheaper to insure with justcar insurance than a Honda civic... with justcar,. wat the hell is the go there, the civic was $1600 a year and this is $1200

Hi mate

really nice mate . . rims look cool - is it definately a 98 because i think all the 98's were 40th anniversary models?

yeah it is, last batch of the R33 series 2's, 1998 there are also R34's made in 1998 like my bosses 1 or maybe the 4 doors were 40th anniversary but my grill is allot diffrent. dident get any pix from strait on soz

Congrats on the new car matey...I'm sure you'll get many years driving pleasure from it.

All you need now is a body kit... I suggest you get a TRUST GT-R front bar, Nismo Side Skirts, GT-R pods for the back (no need for new bar) and chuck a Jun R33 Wing on... fork out like another $3,500 and all of the above plus some extra goodies will be on your way.

Good luck... looks very clean.

Yeah JustCar's the best, I got only 3rd Party for $400.

I think the only other insurance company to insure skylines are either commbank or NRMA.

I got quoted like $2500 by one of them for comprehensive.

I was like yeah, I'm going to pay that ... cya later.

and this was for my 96 S2 which I bought for $10,500 :D

yeah justcar was good about mine because i was with amy first off and thats there sister company. and i fully own mine no bank loan or any thing they put me to rating 2, so 1200 no mods. 1370 with exhaust and havent told them about the other mods yet ^^ but i will soon

ha same I haven't told them about the exhaust, FMIC, wheels or bodykit I put onto it :yes:

Your car looks wicked mate, i agree with Spunky Monkey with the Body kit. but still, it looks good :blush:

Thats an awesomely clean series 2 you have their mate. I disagree with the other guys and recommend that you leave the factory kit as is. All it needs is to be lowered a little with coilovers or the Sydneykid Bilstein group buy and it will look tops and handle better too.

Aftermarket bodykits look rice and attract cops. Enjoy the car mate, they are great fun, just need to do the obligatory bolt on mods and you will have a car that will put a continuing smile on your dial :)

but my grill is allot diffrent. dident get any pix from strait on soz

You've got a Nismo factory option grille :thumbs:

I agree with swink, leave the factory kit.... lower it perhaps, see Sydneykids R33 Bilstein groupbuy in the for sale section.

and Maybe tint the windows cos it's summer you'll wanna save that nice interior :)

    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG is has not responded to my emails so far after purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋
