Hey guys,

I have come to a deliberation with my pride and joy. It only has basic bolt on mods & wheels. (pic below).

My question to you is... do you think I would get more for the car overall if I sold off the mods, and then sold the car stock? Or just sell it as it stands. More attractive to buyers with or without mods do you think?

I was in the same boat as you not long ago (get it? Cos the R33 is considered a boat? Get it? Get it?) and in the end, I sold it complete.

You would probably get more $$$ out of it if you were to part it out (and being basic bolt-ons, could be easy enough to do in your spare time) and sell it near enough to stock. I didn't have that option as the car would've required ALOT of stock parts and I just didn't have the time to do so.

I guess if you've got time (and don't mind delaying the sale), then part it out till it's almost stock. If you're after a quick sale, just sell it as it is :)

If they're just "basic" like exhaust, FMIC, pod filter, bleed valve etc it's probably best to leave it as-is, but if you have an aftermarket turbo, injectors, ECU, coilovers etc you should probably get more $$ selling it stock

Not trying to sound smug.

It's an R33 sedan - The interest on them is quite low - they are the most un-desired 4 door skyline IMHO.

If you want to move it fast, sell it with everything, but if you are happy to wait and have the stock parts - I'd sell the good bits separate.

I agree... It all depends on how motivated you are to sell quickly or not.

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that

      Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

      What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
