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.

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
