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.

    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
    • Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, i will do abit more digging. I am missing a blue relay near the ECU connector... so i will chase that up in the next few days as well  
    • https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
