Gday

Thank you for your inquire.

I'm selling my 1995 Nissan Skyline R33 GTR 2.6 manual 117000Kms (RWC available). If you still want it, I'm selling for only $7,000. The vehicle has been well kept, no rust and been recently serviced. Engine starts right up, sounds great and there are no strange noises. I am looking for a quick sale because I am deploying to Afghanistan in 3 weeks. I'm serving in the army and I've just been sent to Northern Territory for training. The vehicle is here with me but transportation is included in the price.

I took great care of the car.

More photos attached.

Cheers.

Probably a scam...

but then again...

I once had a client in the 80s - a family court lawyer > we finished up a session talking about cars > he giggled...

He told me about his female client - a jilted wife...

Her husband took off overseas with his secretary and left his accountancy firm too...

He instructed his wife to sell up his SL500 Roadster and send him half the money...

So she sold the car and sent him $50...

Perplexed, he asked when she'd send the balance after having received the deposit...

She said, "No that's your 50%"!

Hell knoweth no fury than a woman scorned!

Lol could be the case....

I missed out on ebay a few years ago with a subaru impreza sti, at the time it was worth around 7000gbp, it was put on as a buy it now for for 3000gbp. I was sooo tempted and thought it was dodgy... So I left it, then found out one of the guys off the scooby club had bought it instead and it was all legit :( They were going thru a divorce settlement it was her car and he wanted it, she didnt want him to have it.

And he certainly rubbed it in saying i should of bought it when i had the chance!!

So i for one know there is some bargains out there.....

i managed to pick up a R33 for just above the RRP, and when i mean just i'm talking like $50, the car is in mint condition and have had no problems at all, the guy had it originally for about $8,500, and just kept dropping it, managed to pick it up for $7250, i was going to try for lower but when i saw the car and how she went, i thought na, this guy can have what he is asking for, no all i need to do is wait till i get my license back next month

Why did you feel the need to add this?

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.

      I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Rezz · Posted

      Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.

      Noobie Stagea owner..

      Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
