Maybe try autoshop

www.autoshop.net.au

but it depends on what mods you want? engine mods? or wheels, paint and bodykits?

Umm well can I ask why you are looking to buy from a car yard/importer? did you buy your car from one of these establishments? I am not a fan of car yards the only good thing about them is the fact that they give you a warranty. And besides if you are looking for a decently modified, (engine mods: cooler, bigger turbo, fuel pump, clutch) car then from what I have seen there are not too many good examples in car yards, most have been thrashed, or just have general mods like wheels and paint/kit. I believe that if you are serious about buying a quality skyline you should check out the trading post. www.tradingpost.com.au At least then you will have a decent range to choose from and also have more of a chance of securing something that you want in terms of mods/condition/klms etc and probably save a few grand while you go.

My thoughts anyway.

Yeah i too would be looking at the trading post / internet forums, like 09ONE_32 said, most yards will only have cosmetic mods done to the cars or basic exhaust/filter mods....

Street machines is located just south of brisbane (about 5-10mins out of town along Ipswich Rd.) Not far from the Gabba.

Cameron,

I just picked up my R33 GTST not more than two weeks ago. I bought from Autoforce at Underwood, the service was excellent adn the price was really good. Not only that, but they also have a great network of suppliers and mechanics for all your future needs. Give them a call - the owner is Kevin Lee and they are online at www.autoforce.com.au

woops its 27000, man thats a tad bit much for a R33 with a kit + chromies + zorst...

"BryanB"

Just cause i showed you doesnt mean you have to buy it... hehe

shes my baby :)

looks nice i reckon ;) going to test drive it tomorrow..

an look around at some other places,

"chfowler" i've looked their but they seem expensive, as they still have factory air box and so on (talking about the silver 1995 mdl) i dont want anything to early im after a 1995 + mainly silver but the one from brisbane streetmachines is an excepton :)

i also need to know were i can get parts from ?

You're not going to find many modified ones at dealers, and in fact they're becoming rarer because of the new import laws.

Southport on the Gold Coast seems to have a stack of import dealers (Ferry Road). So if you wanna take the 50min drive down the Pacific Highway, its probably not a bad place to look.

    • Dear folks My family members have 4 different cars : Triton 2015 and Corolla 2011 and Mazda3 2012 and Hyundai Elantra 2014 Looking to buy engine oil funnel spill free What I found are are below  https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0BBTTJNKX?ref=ppx_pt2_mob_b_prod_image&th=1 https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/145553221359?srsltid=AfmBOoqYBU6Ptw0LU_bAp_k67U3qkF97HHvePkA7iHZw8vUmiwoIRaRr https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09X23TCS5?th=1 Is there a funnel with attachment that fits most cars ? Don't mind to spend for a decent quality  Thx  
    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
