Pretty much what they're worth on average at a private sale divided by 2 in my opinion.

So thats around 15 K, meaning 7.5 K? lol bollocks that!

If I wanted to get a Corolla that is worth around 15 K also, Id have to pay another 7.5 K to purchase it? I rather keep my Skylina thank you.

I remember going into a dealer to ask what they'd pay for it and before even checking it out, they gave me a price which was about half of what they're going for.

This was at an Japanese import dealer, could be much different at a Toyota, Holden, etc dealer though.

it's funny how in the second hand market, Auto cars fetch about $2K less than manual, when they cost about $1500 more when new.

$15K gets a decent condition series2 manual in a private sale.

I'd assume you MIGHT be able to sell the auto series 2 for about $12K - maybe.. if someone wanted an auto.

don't even bother with trade in.

Actually, go and get a dealership quote on trade in.

then I'll give you $500 more.

I've got $10K to spend on a car so that should easily outbid the dealer and buy your car and insurance, and possibly a few mods.. ;)

Are you looking for a Skyline?

i'm note sure what people expect from a trade-in?

the dealer has to maek money, if they buy your car for 15k when you can't even sell it for that much privately, what's in it for them?

the point of a trade-in is that its a car you either can't sell or can't be bothered selling, thus they take it off your hands immediately.

the price you pay is that it costs you

if you desperately want to sell your R33 and have your mind set on 15k, why not advertise it for 13k, bite the bullet, and sell it within a week or 2

a mate bought a r33 s2 very clean, standard everything apart from jap catback. it had a nice set of 18s and lowering springs. Went into Mackay Toyota and they offered him $2500 ..... this was right after he bought it for $14k

    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
