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

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
