WTB - NA R33 Skyline around or under $13000

[SXY R33]

Comon ppl sale me a car, i really need a skyline so i can pick up all the young chicks in my area that love good looking cars, my ***** level has gone down.......

hey sky r33, i'm looking at getting a na 300zx, 168 kw stock, and with a powerchip 180 kw

not bad for a na car, and cheap also

[SXY R33]

If your dont mind me asking , where from and how much for the 300zx?

[naiwiboo]

don't get a 300zx! hold our for the r33 - they are far superior! the 300zx's are cops of cars - heavy, weak engines, hard to work on (have u seen the engine bay??) not to mention lack of seating in the rear (even in the 2+2) i know they're cheaper and more power, but you'll have way more mechanical problems with it and the power only makes up for the weight.

seriously the 33 is a great car i haven't had a problem with mine in a year and a half - but if u really want a 300zx, wait til 1st jan next yr and get an '89 for like $7.5k - check out www.prestigemotorsport.com.au and go to stock. (not affiliated)

[Baileylsd]

well, i'm not gonna mod a na car anyway

and i was gonna buy a 2 seater only, and they do 6.9 0-100

[Baileylsd]

well i don't think i can get a r33 anyway, i only got 13k and it ain't gonna get any higher as i'm back at uni now

[naiwiboo]

fair nuff thats pretty quick - the r33 na does 7.3 (manual) stock. Tho with a small amount of mods (exhaust & pod filter mainly (bout $400), extractors ($350), hi flo cat ($300) & super afc II ($550) - if ur keen) u'd easily break that time and have what i consider to be a nicer/more practical car -

but that's just my 2 c

did i mention that in a stock locking r33 i've never been pulled over by the cops in 1.5 years with p plates up? dunno how many 300s wouldnt get pulled over ?

[naiwiboo]

the main thing i guess is age - ud get a newer r33 than u would a 300 for the same $$ i reckon

[Baileylsd]

actually thats a good point, i didn't even think of that

but still its all about the $$$$

time for a student loan

[naiwiboo]

heheh go the student loan!

hey that's given me an idea... hehehe

cheers mate!

[Baileylsd]

best loans ever, no intrest and u pay like .5% a year after u finish uni

best way to get mod money

[naiwiboo]

hey i just realised i know a guy selling a r33 na 5spd gunmetal grey type m (front bar & skirts) - other than that stock i think - maybe exhaust - i don't know him that well tho... he hasn't advertised his car but he's got a sticker up - he might want slightly higher tho like 14k... i'll check it out

actually i heard he might wanna keep it cos he got a call from a some hot chick who saw him in his car and called the for sale number and now hes r&%ting her!!! hahahaha

[SXY R33]

C thats why i want a skyline chicks love it

plz some body find a r33 GTS for me.

I need Chicks

i have a $1000 dollars less $12000 to spend (keep dreaming i think)

[Baileylsd]

lol, dude cars don't get u chicks, they may brake the ice, but u gotta work em after that.

hey, if u sell your holden won't u have like 20k?

[SXY R33]

yeap sell my holden for approx 11g i have 7 in bank = 18g on my skyline

[SXY R33]

Ok u can now import n/a for aprrox 12000 + tyres and on road costs, through any importer. did my research.

i have 2 quotes atm through prestege motors and through another company.

heres what the cars look like.

[MXT Imports]

naiwiboo is right, next year you can get a sweet '89 model twin-turbo 300 (which is the same shape as the '90, '91, '92 model etc.) for sweet f.a. And n/a's for even less. If you're serious about a 300, you might as well wait another 6 months and import an '89 model and get in under the 15 year rule. Believe me, you'll appreciate the savings and so will your wallet!

[MXT Imports]

Hey sxy R33, I know ya did your homework, and you are right that's about the right price, but at the moment there is no compliance so if u import now, the car won't be going on the road any time soon cos the good people in our government are too busy walking around with their thumbs jammed firmly up their as...

[SXY R33]

na their is now complence places doing complience under the new scheme.

[MXT Imports]

where? In melbourne? If so, can you give me some names cos my guy in Melbourne said they he couldn't get any plates for me or get any cars complied there and then brought here. I'd really appreciate dude, cos if he's lying to me, I wanna know + means I can finally get the Supra we've had sitting in da mechanics for the last 3 months finally on the road!

cheers
