Hi.

Just wondering who use to own this car .....

You may know just by looking at the picture, located here.

It is at preferred autos (www.preferredautos.com.au) On Brisbane Rd, just off the Gold coast hwy.

I am looking at buying a skyline, noticed this car in the dealership today as I drove past and went in and had a look. I noticed it has a SAU sticker on the car.

Has anyone bought from these guys? If i was to purchase it I would take out the extra warranty cover although I want to get my hands on the warranty terms and conditions first and read through them, anyone had any experiences regarding this? The guy i talked to seemed genuine though, so he is either really good at his job or really is, there are some nice cars in there.

Anybodies input would be appreciated.

Would you really buy a R33? its a boat though.. only respect is for R33 GTR.

best off getting a R32 or R34.. but up too you..

I'm not looking at buying one for speed. R32 is too old, and I only like 2dr R34s and there doesn't seem to be too many of them within my area in my price range.

I have an R33 GTST and love it. I love the wifes stocko as well.....If you have the money I would get an R34 GTT. Go for unmodded or basic exhaust and filter.... as it reduces the chance of getting one thats been flogged off its T!ts(doesnt really but gotta have a better chance).

Shop around and get them checked right out......

BUT I WANT AN R34 GTR :) BUT WIFE SAYS NO(Divorce coming I think lol)

Thanks mate. ha, yeh a GTT is a little out of my price range. So GTST looks more appealing. I am from NSW, so that is why I was looking at them in dealerships in QLD as I would ask for rego to be transferred or the blue slip or whatever I will need to be done before I even consider buying one from QLD.

That particular dealership the GTS-T is at above, offers extended warranty also - although I would want to thoroughly read the terms and conditions (the guy mentioned it would cover the turbo, aircon compressor etc to what extent though? if the part is found faulty? would it cover wear/age?). It looked nice with minor mods i.e. exhaust, bov and a cannon (the cannon would be getting thrown in the bin, dont like them), it had the original filterbox (whether or not it had just been put back on?) I don't want anything with a pod or any defectable crap.

I would love to get a NSW mechanic in there and fully go over it.

yeah his a member on here just cant remember his username :) , as i remember he posted in the spotted thread when i seen him.

haha. thanks mate.

Did it happen to be related to this post .....

"spotted some dickhead in a white r33 last night, trying to race a blue wrx in the rain just after airport drive in brissy. Of course this dumb f*kker lost and stalls. Then decides to try and catch him while reving the shit out of every gear because he dosnt have traction.

Then the idiot decides to clutch kick in the middle of the road with cars behind him, and nearly lose's it into the ditch. You my friend are a absolute f**khead, you put my girls life at risk. Your lucky you turned off, after nearly losing it because at the next set of lights i was going to give you a hiding."

Going to send him a message/email about the car, he doesn't seem like someone who would thrash the car judging by his posts. Thanks for everyones help.

More input would be great.

That white R33 in the first post looks a lot like Konrad's old car. He bought a Mazda 6 MPS IIRC, and I'm not sure he browses here any more, but you could try sending him a PM and it should send him an email notification.

Oh and just for the hell of it...

Thanks. Yeh i sent him a PM. I was under the impression insurance may be $2k~2.5K I was prepared to pay but NRMA just quoted me on the phone $3,500 and they wouldn't insure it for any more than $10K I would never own a car without comprehensive insurance so I will shop round but if ~$3K is the norm then I think I may just buy a ba xr6 or xr6 turbo. Got quoted $1,200 to insure a 2003 xr6 turbo.

oh an btw, mad blings on your R32 mate. love it. You would have great air conditioning on that.

haha, i just ignored the above boat post. The guy is obviously still a teenager or not far from it, Paul Walker is probably still his hero.

I'm also in the market for a 33 and have looked at this one a few times. I'm thinking it may have some front end repairs as well cause the grill is body coloured. Aren't they supposed to be black ?

      S15 Spec R

      By RP1421 · Posted

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
