Well, for starters. Are you looking for an R33 GTS or an R33 GTS-T?

No, one is naturally aspirated and the other is turbocharged. Seeing as you want a turbocharged Skyline, I would assume you have an unrestricted license. But my advice to you is to learn about the different models of Skyline before you actually go out and buy one. Make sure you have a read of that thread I copied and pasted in my previous post as it will show you what to look for in particular when buying a Skyline. This forum has a lot of information, you just have to find it.

Lurk moar! :P

Ok yer I want the gtst at this stage and yer I get my full lisence in 2 months so looking round to get one for then... But yes I have learnt a fair bit from just reading afew forums and that.. Everyone seems to know so much it's great..

And just wondering how the maintenance is with them and parts if something does go wrong... Is it expensive?

yer the gts25t is the one i was looking at... and they good cars by your experiance? like for an older car?

and isnt the gtr more expensive??

they are way better than any GTS and yes the GTR is more expensive.

just have to choose carefully as skylines tend to have many many owners in this country.

give them premium oil and premium fuel.

service regularly and if there is any problems check AFM,CAS,Coilpacks,ignitor(only if series 1 as series 2 engine has separate ignitors in the coilpacks) and 02 sensor.

    • After @Kinkstaah debacle, I'd never want to try and get it right 😛
    • The hood lines up with the fenders. The front bar doesn't perfectly line up with the fenders where the wheel arch is. You have to 'squeeze' the front bar 'in' as it wants to naturally flare out and be longer on the sides. There's a few threads where people notice this when they only swap a GTR style bumper and front bar. Unless you have genuine OEM items - you may be better served getting conversion kits. There are GTT bumpers to fit GTR hoods. There are GTR hoods (non genuine) to fit the GTT bracketry. MAY  
    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
