Yer car is good quality 176xxx kms on the clock but only 50,000kms on the motor

94 so series 1

Extractors, Exedy clutch few basic mods relatively quick car

Good for P plater

All good selling points

But im more interested in an average price

Ive seen some selling for $6000 and others selling for $15000 so it makes it hard to say the actual value

Are non-turbos worth more than turbos now?

Yeah, Series II's go for about 13 - 16K, Series I's unfortunately go for about 7 - 12K max.

I was looking into getting a R33 before, thats why i got a fresh idea of the prices, but then stumbled on the R34.

I'd pay 9 - 11k Max for your ride, truly because as Shane said, the KM's are a turn off.

But good luck with the sale anyways if you go ahead with it.

I picked mine up at Christmas for $8500

White 1993 R33 Series 1 GTS with factory sunroof. 104,000km on the clock, no mods beyond 17" rims, pod and exhaust.

Add on an extra $1000 for new head unit (was stock Jap one, with Japanese frequencies and a cassette player), alarm, immobilizer and rego.

However, my mechanic looked it over and said it was worth at least $10,000. I just got lucky.

What about mine?

96 Series 2, 65,000km, silver, no mods, sideskirts, genuine gtr spoiler and 17's?

Because I'm thinking of selling mine too

I'd be skeptical of your k's. I was told the clock on almost all imports is wound back somewhere between here and Japan, and numbers that low tell me that its almost a guarantee.

I remember looking at a GTS4 R33 that claimed it had 60,000kms on it. Just looking at the interior alone it looked like it had done 300,000. When looking at cars now I don't tend to worry so much about the k's, and just look at how clean the interior and engine bay is. I don't know enough to look beyond that even if I wanted to anyway.

Frankly that comment just goes to show how ignorant you are about cars. as long as you have the import papers showing the km's on it, you should be pretty right. the average australian does about 15k a year, and it depends if its a daily or just a weekend'er.

in Japan when the cars get serviced the km's get entered into a DB, and when the car gets dereged to get exported they compare whats on the car with the DB to make sure they match up and if it doesnt look right they mark it on the papers.

Importing your self you shouldnt have too much worry, but buying from an import dealer, you should always ask for the import papers, and if they arent willing to show them to you, dont buy the car.

Oh, forgot to mention..I have all the service records when the car was brand new in Japan to it leaving the docks of Japan with 59,000km's on the clock. All the service records has the dates on it from Nissan, so I'd think it is pretty genuine....

Anyway, back to my question, how much is it worth?

I'd personally say (this is just my guess - I have little experience to back it up) at least $14,000, if not more. Late model and low k's all help a lot. The colour and wing tickle my personal fancy as well.

It's so weird how everyone tells me the price of an NA skyline has gone up, due to the new P plate law.

But is that actually true? has it actually gone up in value?

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
