I bought my 33 from them about 4 years ago. Was happy with them to deal with and would happily go back again if there was a next time.

Only issues that ever come up with the car were related to the modifications I have added.

Luke

at least get a manual, geez it takes like what.. a few hours to pick up manual? and a few more days to perfect it?

You'll be a much happier mann.........

The amount of times i've heard ppl say........

"is that car non turbo?" thennn 'is that car auto' *drives off*

Actually got two cars off them so far. r33 which i got in december 2008, took me half an hour to cut them $200 off the advertised price. got my current car from them half a year ago. paid exact price as they advertised, but got immoboliser put in for free. From my exp. you will be lucky to take a few hundred dollars off the price they ask for. As Kezr33 stated, they are a businnes after all.

Paid cash for both cars by the way, which didnt really make any difference on the price.

Also bought my 33 s2 off them... If buying from a dealer would recommend.. Let me test drive a few different cars.. Couldn't get them down much on price, but jeff i think his name was threw in as much as he could, got r34 rims, japanese snow chains, new front suspension, even sprayed my calipers for me when changing the rims lol... also had to wait 1-2 weeks to have it registered so the boss lent me his stagea untill the 33 was registered... all up was very happy with the service etc.

In hindsight though would have been better off buying private off someone who's already done the standard bolt ons.. don't think the condition would be much different.. Dealer Stock r33 @ $12-13 vs Private Lightly modified (zorst, pod, cooler, suspension, wheels) r33 for about 12-13... do the math.. and then can get straight to the fun stuff like bigger turbos injectors etc. Just my 2 cents anyway ..

Yeah thanks guys. Some guys say that they've managed to get $1k+ off the price and others struggle to even just get a few hundred off the advertised price.... seems really hard on how I would cope trying to bargain them with the Carsales R34 Link I posted in the topic ... damnn it! That car has been on sale for a couple months now so I would assume it is a bit overpriced at $15k really.... there are turbos for say $13k so!

They're simply just taking advantage of the demand for N/A lines.

Yeahh thats a valid point - but I don't get why GT-T's are even cheaper than what this N/A is priced at seriously... although it is a dealer but yeah. You reckon I have a chance for bidding 13-13.5k?

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • 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!
