RB25DET. I would if I could.

Depends on how much the car is gonna cost me.

I gotta pay insurance, etc for my Camry too.

The way I see it, is Turbo = $$ insurance for 18 y/o

Save money from the insurance, add nice

sound system, bodykit and possibly turbo conversion in

a few more years.

I'd get a r32 gtr. r32 are cheap and fun, I got a r33, and its nice, but the series 2 is what i'd go for, mainly for the extras. and they going to be mainstream shortly.

 

also welcome.

First of all welcome Eug.. If you are looking for a r33, get a series 2 like Zoix said coz the series 2 looks much better stock than the series one stock. ;)

I only recently got me car.. so check out www.carsales.com.au, www.carpoint.com.au and also www.tradingpost.com.au. There was quite a few 33s, when I was looking for a skyline as well.

On top of the mentioned sites.. do a search for import car yards in yellowpages.com.au most of them also have websites that is slightly out of date...

If your 18.. the insurance for a GTST will cost you an arm and a leg.. but some people can still afford it... :|

Last but not least.. Colors is not a major factor (it can be changed relatively easy), probably better off looking for one that you can afford that is in good/reasonable nick with good engine and things.. :D

Just my 2c worth. Good luck to your car hunting dude and once again welcome.. :wavey:

As always I use my trademark welcome line:

"Welcome to your new addiction!"

Yeah they are coming out of the woodwork, must be all those l337 looking fliers I have been littering all makes and models of skylines with :)

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • 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.
