Theres a dark purple R33 1995 skyline on my road it's been sitting there for months since it got damaged in an accident. Just noticed it had a for sale sign on it so i called the chick up who owned it and she said it's a GTR but she only wants around 6500 for it but it's got 200,000 on it. It's got all the GTR bits on it but no GTR badge.

She didn't seem to know a whole lot about it. I asked if it's a twin turbo she just said "it's a turbo man it's an import". I asked her if it was an actual GTR and she's like "yeh it's an import man". So i dunno how do you tell if it's an actual GTR or not? I was looking on car sales and didn see another model called a BCNr33 that didnt seem anywhere as expensive as the typical one.

Does this sound right? I thought a GTR would be worth more than that even if it was damaged and had 200,000 on it.

If it cost 1500 to fix the damage would the car still be worth more than 8 grand?

Or would it be worth fixing for that much and then reconditioning the engine?

She did sound derro.

I said 1.5k to fix the car. The rear quarter panel is fuxed and the left side bottom part of the rear is pushed in a bit.

I just sat down man ill get it next time i go past.

stand behind it an check if the rear guards are flared or if there flush with the rest of the car. GTR's have flared rear guards and its very noticeable. It's possible that a GTS could have flared rear guards as well but I haven't seen any.

Get underneath bro, look for the transfer case and front diff, it's one thing that's rather hard to fake.

spend $30 on vicroads on the number plate and get a history check.

That won't answer all your questions, but at least if it's been through insurance, you can see what accidents it's been through.

Also may tell you if it's stolen or not.

Get the VIN, call up Nissan spare parts at your local dealer, and ask the nice man to run the VIN through their Nissan FAST software. It will tell you how it came out of the factory, ie engine,rwd/awd, color, transmission etc. If it has an RB26DETT engine and AWD, then it's a GTR. :P

Get the VIN number, check the dashboard, pop the bonnet and check that it has an RB26, look under the car for a transfer case (for the 4wd system), look the triple-gauges in the centre of the dash, the seats, flared gaurds at the front and rear, front guards + bonnet are aluminium.

Theres a farking shitload of different ways to tell if it's a gtr.

FAST the VIN and you'll have the best chance to find out exactly what it is

Thats the one, its a GTS-T. It is completely f**ked, that is not fixable damage. I went past and had a quick look, was gonna offer $1500 for it, its only worth it for the motor and box. Its got a fake fibreglass 400R front bar thats also beat up beyond use.

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf

      Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.

      Does the scanner do all the CUs in the car, or only the ECU?

      @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man

      Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
