fisch automotive are making RB conversion bellhousings for CD boxes at the moment, im very interested

keep me in the loop, maybe when it's ready I would have moved into a bigger place with more room to play with the boat

Wow, R33s on Facebook groups are selling like hot cakes.

A R33 S1, basic built motor, simple parts listed up for $18k and sold within an hour.

Can't imagine what my dim sum special R33 S2 would sell for.

I'm a bit motivated now and might considering cutting out the rust in the poorly rolled guards and doing a proper open door respray.

I was thinking that the other day, not for me/the Silvia (though those are going north fast too, my car is too far gone though).

Now might be the time you can sell out and get your 335.

At this rate might as well aim for a M3 F80 LCI lol

This ISO bullshit has a lot to answer for!!  The price of EVERYTHING has gone up.  Crazy how expensive R33 and R34's have become the last few months!  Used motorbikes have gone through the roof too.  Everyone is spending more time at home on the couch bored shitless buying crap they can't even use....

Good if you're selling anything, not so good for buyers...

@Dose Pipe Sutututu your car is now a highly valuable collectors item.

So is yours @Shoota_77!!!

Just crazy, imagine one day this happens and someone just walks up and goes to me "I'll trade you my low km F80 LCI M3 for your unfinished R33"

Oh boy haha

Mate you need to get over this BMW thing!  I can't stand the bloody things!  I'd rather the Skyline all day!  Yeah they're expensive to own but nothing compared to a BMW that has conveniently just run out of warranty!  There is pretty much not one BMW I would choose over a Skyline (dollar for dollar).  A $100K Skyline makes a $100K BMW cry in shame! :)   As a track car they're possibly able to be lived with but I just find them so hard to find enjoyable as a road car.  They handle like a junkies eyeballs after a 3 day dry spell...

It won't have anything to do with Covid. Prices have been on the rise for the last couple of years. 

 

Having just pulled the Skyline off the road to go full race car - I try not to pay any attention to what clean 34's are selling for ?

Yeah they've been rising steadily but 100% Covid has had an effect on pricing.  I've been keeping a pretty close eye on R34 coupes for the last 6 months dreaming that I'd get one as a daily and I've noticed that they've jumped massively the last 5-6 months.  Good luck finding a turbo R34 Coupe under $25K now.  Even non turbos are gone from the market that were there earlier in the year.

Just stupid, a few years ago you could get these for sub $10k (auto ones)

Last car is the best though, all speculative power:

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
