Hey guys, not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I'm heading onto my black license soon and I was just wondering what kind of manual 33's and 34's (turbo) were out there around that $11,000 - $12,000 mark. I'm looking for something as close to stock as possible because I won't be taking this car to a track, it will be a daily. If anyone was thinking about selling their car in a couple of months or has something that fits the bill I would love to see what is out there. It is also preferable that it has low kms. Thanks in advance!

12000... rule 34s out.

itll be a piece of shit, may as well buy an excel with a turbo on it, will cost you less to fix

Hmm that's what I was thinking, would you have a rough estimate of what a decent 34 will set me back?

i spent 17500 a year ago, stock as, nothing touched not even the sound system

first thing i did was service everything, 100k service, plus every fluid, plugs, brakes, gave it a good detail and its one of the best, since then added wheels and a few other little mods and you can see the pic below :)

so yeah id say 17k, if you want a less popular colour like white maybe 15?

just dont buy off someone dodgy, someone straight up that will tell you everything about it.

and dont buy the first one you look at, look at heaps then you can tell whats good and what has had the clocks wound back, for example seats and steering wheels will be in worse condition then others and engine bays will look worse then others.

hey mate, check out my 33

in great condition, good kms for a 96 model and you'll save yourself some money

cheers, Angus

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
