Hi Guys,

So of late I've started thinking of selling the skyline as I'm looking for a ute.

Wondering what sort of money I could be chasing?

Car has been serviced religiously and mods have all been done professionally done.

It runs perfectly and the only reason for the sale is I want a ute

Car is:

R33 S2 skyline Silver body in perfect condition

30x xxx kms

5 spoke 18inch mags

GCG Hi Flow Turbo

TRUST turbo back exhaust

Coilovers

Heavy Duty clutch

Running safely on 11psi and dyno'd at 226rkw (turbo can handle a lot more)

Any thoughts on what I should be asking for would be appreciated.

I'll work on finding some pictures!

haha yep!!! I was wondering whether to leave that off.

even when I had the hi-flow done the guys didn't believe it had that many k's and went how it does!

The k's are mostly mine as its my daily driver - always serviced every 5000 and has had its timing belts, etc.

I bought my clean one for just under 9k that was with a roadworthy and extensive major service done 6months proir to purchase. Bought @ 108,00ks

I reckon maybe 8k on car sales if you provided a compresison test for the engine and drivetrain is reasonable.

Also has the 300,000k service been done?

thanks for the feedback guys :)

I'll see what the trade in offers are like - its a shame about the km's as it looks like it will impact the price big time.

I've got my heart set on a ute now!

Yep all services done.

I've always made sure that when something wore out (shocks, clutch, turbo, etc) that I tried to do things right.

GCG turbo is 12 months old (over 2 grand), clutch is 18 months old (2 grand) coilovers about 24 months (2 grand) etc, etc

Happy to hear any more comments - ill have a look at what else is out there and what they are going for see if I can price it accordingly. It drives great but I do understand about the kms!

Thanks!

Chuck up some pics and get a rough idea on what you could trade it in for, then add a bit onto that and see what bites :) if it was a bit more average condition with those kms, I'd consider snapping it up to thrash it lol...but that's just me :P

most caryards willnt trade it (import). including mine! i have a a 2006 vz thunder ute with 130km imaculate inside and out AT (v6) white hardcover if you sell your car. one owner got 15990 on it you can have it for 14,000

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
