Moving To Sydney Soon - Lookin For A R33gts-t Steal Deal.......


Recommended Posts

Hello guys, just new to this forum, lookin to move to Sydney from NZ and have a 95-98 Series 2 R33 GTS-t in mind, where can I get the best deals - could anyone please give me a list of 'repossessed car / auction companies' in Sydney which are likely to have this car at steal deals - their web addresses?? Have been lookin in carsales.com.au, tradingpost.com.au, motorpoint.com.au, drive.com.au - which is the best one?? They all seem more or less the same, ie which one would you guys recommend??

I'm 30yrs old, lookin to grab a clean, preferrably lowered 95-98 car with mild or no mods for under 10k. Prefer white, no spoiler or stupid kit, and 17' or 18' deep dish Work Meister rims...ahhh..where can I pick up a 2nd hand set of deep dish rims/tyres and costs and or costs of lowering with king springs etc, what do u guys mostly use??

It will be a normal and sexy daily driver that I can park at the train station so nothing flash - and any ideas on insurance for a 30yr ol fart??

Please provide feedback if you can, your help will be much appreciated -- cheers n thanks!! RON laugh.gif

no matter how stock the car was.. I wouldnt be parking it at any train station for a long period of time.

check out the for sale section on this forum for good examples of cars for sale. Also the trader section can help you get parts/rims etc

brother from NZ wWOOOT!!

under 10k would net you a 95 model probably. Just gotta be patient, I've seen a couple for sale at that price.

I still think carsales is the best one so far, drive.com.au has way too many dealer ads, so don't even bother looking there.

I agree with Sammmmberteh, I wouldnt be leaving an r32/33/34 at any railway station car park in sydney!!!!

insurance? just cars would be the best. 13 13 26

or justcarinsurance.com.au

Personaly I wouldn't recommend Just Car insurance, as they are extremely expensive, and DO NOT give you choice of your own repairer (their really just for young hoons).

Being 30 yrs old you should be able to find a much better deal els where.

I know you really can't compare as it depends on age, driving record, suburb, colour of your underwhere etc.

I'd recomend GIO special vehicles or Lumley Special Vehicles (LSV). Ph:1300 88 56 16.

My R34 is insured with LSV full comprehensive for $31,398 with an annual premium of $1,227.

I had an accident last year (not at fault) and LSV approved repair with my usual panel beater who is extrememly expensive.

I don't know about you but I like to have that choice, have a serious accident with Just Car Insurance and your likely to have problems with the quality of repair.

Just my opinion.

Thanx mate for ur advice - I will consider that - do any of you use a R33 GTS-t as a daily driver to work, ie park in city or train station etc ??? From the looks of things, I suppose these cars are highly likely to get stolen from Sydney train stations...??

And I also been looking at the R32GT-R as a second option, which seems so cheap in Oz, are any of you owners of this super car who also use it as a daily car ??--- and is this car VERY likely to get stolen - whats the insurance and running costs like for this car??

cheers n thanx again guys....................

50% of 32GTR owners seems to forever have their car in the garage, in pieces, waiting for rebuild. Don't ever leave your car at train stations, it's unsafe. Grab a $200 shitbox and use that as a dialy driver. Where will you be living?

R34 sedan, Im pretty sure LSV wouldnt cover a skyline at a railway station all day. Just cars would prob be this guys best bet. Im sure LSV would want a bit more history. Justcars dont care if you leave your car at redfern station unlocked at night!

Oh, and Im not insured with JC anyway and yes, Id like to have my choice also but being new here...how likely is he going to know a good repairer? :D Im just saying they are most likely the company that would be the most able to insure him in HIS situation :)

For sure JC may be his best bet, but I'm suggesting a few other options he should look in to (as their may be better out there).

Don't know if LSV would cover him at a train station all day, would need to check.

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
