hey looking to sell my R33 GTST M spec 195 kms aprox on the clock at least it hasn't been turn back like some of the skyline I've seen in the past,for the age of the car and K's it's sound more relistic.I've only done about 6000 kms on it myself ,goes well.Let us know if you interested.

If you wait about 3 weeks my car will be up for sale. Having the 100,000km service completed, new clutch, belts, fluids filters etc before putting it up for sale.

Completly stock (except exhaust, 3" HKS Super Silent and 3" dump) 1996 Series 2 R33 with 98,000km. I'm the first Australian owner, bought at 76,000km Sept 06 from a private importer in Melbourne, flew down and drove it back myself.

Only thing i can think of that may not pass rego would be the tyres, were brand new when i bought the car for compliance but are 1.5 years old now so unsure.

Was hoping for $15,500 when it came to selling it but would not walk away from $15k

how many stock skylines are there?

SFA...........you wana know why, because its so easy to ramp 'em up and make life just that bit more exciting.

Why would you want to own a Skyline and not modify it, thats what Toyota Camry's are for. Sometimes being different is not being different, just boring.

Need tyres huh? :P

lol at Mick.

Good luck with it all though. I dont think its possible to be unique with a skyline sadly. I love em, but they are no longer a different sight, just a good one.

Why not import one yourself? I have seen online R33 SIIs going for $12k'ish and they were complied and a grade 3/4 rating. Or you could go through a small import house. Somehwere like Skyline's Performance in Belco'... I was talking to them the other day and they said they could get a grade 4 R32 GTS-T for $9-10K and that was complied!

heres some pics aswell, dont worry about the p-plates, im too much of a wimp to try anything 'p-platerish' after crashing my previous car...

Free sausage sandwich at Shannons Wheels this weekend to the first person who can name all 7 of the cars in the pics i posted above :laugh: (To be fair, the black car in the background of Pic #2 is a Toyota C***** and the two cars in Pic #3 are the same make but different models)

star got 15,500 for his stocker without 100,000km service :)

stock is apparently more sought after then modded which is stupid when you think about the money you could save but at the same time theres peace of mind in getting a stock car

The skyline market has drowned my uncle sold his 33 for 16k to my brother but he payed 24k 3-4 years ago. lol Australia has become japans place to offload skylines. the trick is to find a good one not a cheap one.

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
