Gday all, I am looking to buy my first skyline :) and though I've been doing my homework on the subject I'm not too sure about pricing. The specs for the car I'm looking at are below.

1995 Nissan Skyline ECR33 GTS-4

Black

4x4

5sp Man

2.5L RB25DE

Driver airbag only

CD Player

ABS braking

Power Steering

Brand new 17" Mags with low profiles

3" Exhaust

Full matched & meshed GTR body kit

65,000kms on the clock

Ran well when I went to see it

Asking price : $15000

From what I have researched around various places this seems to be a good deal, The seller is not keen on a mechanical check which is sus but hopefully that can be resolved. Insurance is sorted already.

What offer do you think I should make him/what should be the max to pay for it?

Cheers,

Tyson. (Perth)

[edit] btw, no photos unfortunately :) but if I had to give an indication of paintwork etc i would say somewhere between grade 3.5 and 4.

14k tops man. 15k is pushing it...

you can get a turbo for about 16k these days....  

and any pimple-faced gopher can get a 15k unsecured loan it seems...

:)

funniest shit ive heard in ages , top stuff

get it checked, maybe he doesnt like the car going out of his site which is fair enough, get the basic rac check done at ur house or a mob mechanic then at his place??

if he still says no id say **** him, if he wont let u check it , thats a bit suss

yeah definately..anyone that refuses to have the car inspected has something to hide.

If he complains that he doesnt have the time tell him the inspection can go to this workplace or whatever. When you sell a car, and someone wants an inspection, you do it - its never easy selling a car, so if you have nothing to hide then an inspection is a blessing ...not a burden.

And like Strich said, you can find 15k 1993-4 turbo R33's, plus 4X4 N/A will be a slow ride. If you go N/A you may want to consider a lighter RWD.

    • Thanks mate, couldn't find in VIC, ended up ordering one from NSW, getting rwc to get new plates and registration done.
    • Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.
    • People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
    • Decided for the first time ever I would tow my car TO the track day on the same working theory as bringing tools and spares "if I have it I wont need it, but if I leave it behind i will 100% need it" all setup and ready to go out and try these A050 for the first time First session showed I needed to stiffen up the dampers a touch but still managed a few 1:21's without much effort. things were looking good. Came in a dropped the tyres down  to 26/28 as they had gotten to 35/33C from 22C cold The first lap of session two I managed to drop into 1:20's. Then in the second lap into the second session. Coming into T3 and I suddenly lost brake pedal followed by some huge rear end vibrations and scraping sounds. Got it back into the pits after session ended and found this. in the attached video, all of the wobble is in the hub its self, wheel is mint, and bearing feels tight. lKXLqpd - Imgur.mp4   Deciding it was a bent spindle I tried to find bearing/hub assembly locally but was unsuccessful so it was loaded back onto the trailer i luckily brought it on to drag it back home
