I was offered $3k for my NA R33 on trade in. I then sold it for 7.5k (without RWC) within 24hrs of it going on carsales. I could have probably milked another grand out of it but I wanted a quick sale.

This, they'd put it up for sale for 8k a week later and some chump would snap it up (thinking they got a good deal because it's a skyline from a dealer) and the dealer would be laughing all the way to the bank

well considering they are in the business of selling cars for profit, what do you expect?

I know it might not be relevant today but i traded my 97 s2 NA r33 for my s15 back in 2005 for 12k - today? who knows but NA skylines are still in demand for p platers so u might get lucky.

like the others say, go private; check current skylines for sale in similar nick and put that price. If no bites, reduce price by 500bux a week until it sells

Thank-you, for pointing out the obvious. But I was referring PARTICULARLY to dealers getting N/A R32-34's traded. Because they're garanteed to make a quick profit, when some idiot P-Plater runs in and buys it, as opposed to a less desirable car that would have the tendancy to sit in the yard.

    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
