* Grammar fixed - but QFT :thumbsup:

Hahah best.quote.edit.ever!

Stoppped by Japlink today to get my 33 looked at, they mentioned how hard it is to sell those things now though surely you got 15k for yours Zebra? not 1.5k like your post implies..the guys at Edward lees offered me 6k for mine but would prefer it without all the mods..guess i will be returning it to stock if i ever get around to trading up. Anyway Japlink told me that if i am prepared to jump up to the 34 (so want!) then i better be ready for servicing and mod costs that triple or more those of the GT-St....:unsure:

oh well..in for a penny..

Nope 1500 bucks. After many attempts to sell at like 5 or 6 k and not even a look (this was when there were still worth over 10k)

Lol at terry btw

6k is good money for a stockish 33 these days. I wouldn't pay anymore for one

I laff at guys trying to sell gtst skylines for 15k and wonder why no one comes to look at them

It's kinda sad that vn v8 commodores are worth more these days

I love my GTR...it makes me smile just looking at it in the garage :)

If you're going to track it or mod the crap out of it I'd say go for an R33 and save the money for mods.

I haven't modded my GTR and probably never will and I think that's the way I want it now because it is just enjoyable for me to drive it on normal roads. In saying that it does attract a lot of attention...

Yeah was looking last night and I think if I do upgrade it'll be an evo. Could probably get a decent one for 30k.

Or possibley an rx7 02 model could get one of those for around 25-30 too.

Maybe I can build a gtr when there a classic haha.

You won't buy a GT-R based on logic/sense, you will buy it based purely on emotions/desire.

You know you bought the right car when you park it and look back, or walk into your garage and look at it.

This happened to me two weeks after I bought my R32 GT-R. Haven't looked back since. I'll try everything to keep it.

If I sell it, next car will be R34 GT-R.

It's not worth selling a 32 GTR... Just save a touch longer and buy a 34 and have both... Win win...

but a seal + bearing kit for a 13b is under $1000, then you just need 1/4 of a brain to put it together.

will see how i go when i get my rotary. :pirate:

just watch it when their head gaskets go, can get pretty messy apparently...

      All 3 I guess. The car came with the JASI Aero 4 door Type R Full Kit unpainted so this was one thing at the top of my list to complete then I noticed there were body panels parts for this kit so i picked them up along with some black mesh to fill in the front bumper and front side air vents. car is at a paint and body shop atm completing this work. Next I will be addressing the internal bells and whistles, great summer project I can do with the kids.  full interior removal - ,boys car sound deadening - pads and spray ,boys stereo, sound, lighting - Big 3, GTT or bigger alternator ,kids head lining - dye black add star lighting mod ,daughter. That's it for the next 5-6 months. I have some motor maintenance  work i have to plan out. oil filter relocation, gaskets, mounts. beyond that, mind is starting to turn over if i can use a DET intake plenum, block off turbo ports & pipe in a air intake.

      roller coaster of a ride. Alarm system was removed & main harness was repaired where possible. still no fix just random successful starts. moved on to the replacing the ignition switch and relay. well all this troubleshooting & repair has been going on, the car is at a paint and body shop being pushed around. Ive been going down there on odd days after work to get it sorted.

      I think he was only proposing to use the wire, not the sender. Simply because it runs from the right place to the right place. Personally, I wouldn't hack up the factory wiring like that. I'd just lay in the Defi loom.
