hey guys. i was wanting to know what you thought an r33 gtst that has been hit in the drivers side would be worth. the car is a write off and would be only good for parts. the engine is still in going condition although it has been flogged and lacks alot of power compared to other stock r33 gtst's. the rear of the car is still good. the front bumper is broken. the drivers seat and fuse box area is all broken up but the rest of the car looks to be in reasonable condition.

just wanting to know what you think this would be worth to buy for ugrades and spares as i have a r33 gts. wont be fitting engine just things like brakes and stuff.

thanks

doesnt sound like there is much value left in it if motor is shagged just gearbox + brakes etc if they are ok everything else is minor bits and bobs could get a bit parting it but for someone to buy it as is probably 1-1.5k

So you're not selling one then? Kinda the wrong section riiiight?

As alr33x wrote, ~$1k especially if the engine is crap.

Get a compression test and leak down test to see how bad the engine is

you could get about $900 for gearbox if the motor is flogged but include everything thats needed to run it you probs could get 1k, then for hubs, rotors and calipers you could get a good $700 thats if its 5 stud also interior about $400-$500, left side door about $100-$200, spoiler and boot about $200, if bonnet is still good thats another $200, wheels you could sell those as well if there stockies you can get $200 for them, if its got a exhaust like a 3" cat back thats another $250, or stock exhaust about $50, if you got a sound system you can sell that, also you could sell engine loom or include it with engine sale. Also you can sell the tailshaft for about $100, then you can sell rear tail lights that will get you $100, r33 interior floor mats about $50, then you can take the diff out thats another $200, fuel pump another $50

Theres a few parts you can sell as the skyline does come with a lot of parts.

If you have the time and dont mind storing it and give it a month or 2 worth of storage you could have all those parts gone and get back about 4k maybe a bit more.

Might seem high but trust me ive stripped a whole r33 down to the bare metal and sold off every part and got most of the cash back.

    • Drilled the rubber out on a slow speed and it didn't catch much at all. Probably only half a dozen holes was enough to shred the rubber and it dropped off easily leaving the inner sleeve behind. Will tackle that later
    • I havent bought a manual cover for the dash yet and no cluster change, won't bother me too much, I just need to get that auto box gone, manual in! I miss my manual. 🤪. We started last weekend and managed to get the box out. Planning to start putting it in this weekend and then order a single piece tail. We were super careful to take time and not damage anything. It's my first time working under the car.  With my S15 mainly worked in the bay. This time, it was a headache because of three or four bolts only. They simply didnt want to leave thei homr and the one securing the tailshaft, another above the GB, and the one securing the lipstick was a shit. Mates mate, Davo caught fire 🤣, nearly opened his chest up with a grinder 🤦🏽‍♂️ and both mates nearly had a plate from the box land and slit their head open. Fun times. We all survived. Not the easiest working with limited access on jackstands. As I'm sure we can agree these are the memories which make us love our car. For all three of us, was an awesome weekend and Sunday 3.30am before tools down was a fantastic effort. I need to upload pics, but looks like it needs to be via Url now. We used to be able to just upload pics back in the day. It's been that long! 🤪 Im currently spraying rustoleum under body, not because it's rusted. It's super clean, but just so it's protected for the next 10 years. There was a few surface rust spots. Which pretty much wiped off with a 3M scourer.  Really impressed with how well the previous owner maintained it. Bank account went down so quick! Service, then GB - managed to get a spanking new 34 genuine box from Nissan. All the rest of the conversion parts from Kudos.  Went with a Nismo short shifter. New pedals and Exedy Clutch and FW. Ordered the Prp Rear Main Retainer kit which should arrive Friday and my first engine mod part just like I did with my S15 will be the Tomei Expreme Turbo Outlet. Already on order. It'll likely sleep next to me on a pillow during the coming months. 🥰 Last build was on my JET200GT profile and on SAU and Hardtuned I had documented the build. Planning to try to do that again. Brands feel scarce now. Wish we still had ARC and Apexi parts readily available. Exhaust - need some advice on this. I had an Apexi exhaust on the S15 and loved the tone. My mate had a HKS HP Silent on his 33 and suggested I go with that to avoid drone. I can't remember hearing an RB25DET running that so will likely need to wait for a meet or something to hear it.  Not after big power, just enjoy building it, and drivability with minimal negative attention.
    • Have a chat with Ben at Moore Performance or Jesse at JS Performance.
    • Thanks both. All good advice. Reminds me of drilling through stone wall for drainage pipe 😬 I'll let you know how I get on if I still have use of my hands afterwards 😅
    • Finally got shipping number for the intake and throttle body, shipped by UPS, so "should" be in my hands sometime next week, fingers fracking crossed
