I thought I would make a thread about how much people really pay for there skylines and performance cars as opposed to "My car is worth X amount".

There seem to be a huge number of people with hands firmly planted on there dicks about how much there car is worth.

I recently got back into a skyline after selling my VE V8 (at a realistic price) and it was a pain in the ass sifting through all the crap that is overpriced. A good example is a guy with an R33 S1 with bolt ons who wants 18K.

I'll start with mine.

1996 R33 GTS-T 4 Door.

Manual

172000kms

Full Xforce Exhaust, K and N filter

Nice but not perfect condition. Airbags.

$4900 with Rego

Had just under 30,000km when I bought it 2.5 years ago, 49,000km on it now

Dealer wanted $38,000 paid $33,500 with 5 year warranty. Is now in the For Sale section for $28,000 ono. Will let you know what it actually goes for sometime in the future.

"Nobody wants 4 door 33s".

That is why you got your car for the price you did. but yes the retarded prices for the Coupes and Sedans(Considering what i just wrote about them) as well(11K for a turbo 4 door 33 with rims and a few normal mods lol).

A mate of mine swapped a iron block V8 ford that was worth about 3.5K for a series 1 R33 GTST with bolt ons.

The skyline however needed a new clutch, coilpacks and its paint is rough as.

Tax is good at bending you over without lube ensuring that you bleed.

'95 R33 GTR vspec

Midnight purple

Freshly imported

86,000 genuine km's (log books to prove)

Completely standard bar EVC, Mines cat back and tinted windows

$20,500 on the road.

Where!?!?!?!?!

Bought my r31 for $2000, spent about 20k on parts for my heavily worked n/a 26/30, computer, suspension, wheels, brakes, body kit, etc.

with the every dollar you pay for parts, you will add 30 cents to the value

so my 31 would be valued at about 8k but would prob sell for around 6k if i was to ever sell it (never would, rather auction it off to charity first)

So what you're saying is that your car is illegal and not insured. :sleep:

    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
