Alright guys, I've got a '94 Series 1 M-Spec R33 GTST Manual 4 door sedan. Its only got very basic mods which include:

Jasma 3inch cat back exhaust

KNN Pod Filter

Cusco Strut Brace

Tein Super Street Coilvers

17 inch Volks TE 37

Navan Spoiler

Reclinable Race Seats

Everything else is pretty much stock and mechanically A1. I heard from some guys that the 4door turbo/manual is pretty rare nowadays. I don't know how true that is, but I seldom see R33 sedans on the road. Yea I know that now is a pretty shit time to sell a car with all the prices going down compared to a few years back.

Anyway, I was wondering how much I would be able to get if I were to sell my car now. So I hope you guys out there can give me an estimate.

i sometimes think that its better and less time consuming to just trade the car in.

My old car I could've probably sold for $9k if I could be bothered waiting for the right buyer.

Trade in value was $3k.

I sold it within 24hrs of it going on carsales for 7.5k (without RWC).

If you really want to sell your car, dump the price and get rid of it. You'll still get far more than you would from a dealer.

To the original poster: IF you find the right buyer, you could probably get $10k, but like someone else mentioned, no one wants 4 door Skylines. Even if they did want one, 4 door 33's may be rare, but 4 door 34's are nearly as common as the Coupe's, and still only $12,000-14,000.

    • 12+ months passed so they have no obligation to do a warranty claim. It leaked from the rear circuit. Front circuit was fine, but I tried many times to bench-bleed and in-car bleed (wasted 1L of Penrite racing brake fluid) to no avail. Threw my old BM50 or whatever the standard R32 GT-R BMC is, brakes went back to normal. So from my very limited anecdotal experience, I cannot recommend HFM, even though a lot of their products looks good. Just my experience (I have a genuine Nissan BM57 in a box waiting to be installed now).
    • How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.
    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
