Just Bought A 1997 R33 Skyline Gts-4

[Gw2]

It happened all so quick, but i officially became a skyline owner for the first time today. Its a 97 r33 gts-4 manual. When i bought it, it had like no fuel in it, decided to put $50 worth of 98 octane fuel in it, im shocked it got it around 85% full! Very excellent for a 6cyl. So i took it today for my first drive, it was AMAZING, the handling was incredible, i dont think ive ever drove a car with such incredible handling. It has power, i was in 4th gear doing around 40kph, it didnt take very much to get to 80, this thing has torque! One thing i do dislike about it though is the short 1st gear, to move off at lights and change to second you pretty much have to take the car to around 4000rpm then change gear, which does make the car drink abit more.

Ok so i dont want to say how much i paid for it, its too dark at the moment to take any pics, but the car is a very nice silver colour, no scratches or dints or anything on it, the paint is in better condition then my mums 2011 honda accord euro! It has 158xxkm the way it drives i honestly think the km are legit. came with roadworthy and few months rego!

Sorry i dont have any pics, again its dark, ill upload some tomorrow.

How much do you think i paid for it

how much could i probably get for it if i were to sell it going off the details ive given (not selling it, i love this car to death honestly)

I am so happy to have this car, i love it to death! Pics coming soon.

Sorry pics took soo long, i was waiting to wash and polish the car first but its been raining for the past 2 days where i live =[

So this is how the car looks, it was washed around 2-3 days ago, its been raining ever since then so it could look sooo much better with a nice polish, but still looks awesome as it is right now =D

Ok so what i intend to do to the car, firstly i intend to service it just incase lol. Next i intend to lower it, it is so high up it really needs lowering, i got quoted $690 to lower it to the legal height, is that a good deal? I intend to put in my sound system that i have in my other car. Also might change the rims, not a big fan of the ones currently on it lol. Thats all im planning on doing short term, but im pretty sure ill want to do other stuff to it, as we all do lol.

Ill take more pics when i wash and polish the car, hopefully that is soon!

Also, try and guess what car is parked next to it =p

[luke gtr]

Dam your good.

it was either that or an is200 (think that's the lexus variant)

[Gw2]

Lets see if you can guess which soarer! Is it the v8? Is it the n/a or is it the turbo version?

Car looks great! Welcome to SAU. What's with the game to guess the car next to it? Thought you were here for that Nissan not Toyota. Otherwise great job on the buy! How is the interior? There's two major things I look for when purchasing a car that makes or breaks the deal. Interior and body. Couldn't care less if the engine ran. It could be rebuilt. Trying to find a small screw cover for a grab handle for a car almost 20 years old.... good luck. Engine bay clean?
