superspit, try and find how many cars where imported TOTALLY in a year and then see how many commodores are sold each year.

I read somewhere in 2002 when i imported my car there was something like 27k cars or so.  say 15% of that are 33's then thats about 4000 in one year.  holden sell in excess of 27,000 commodores a year.. eaaaasy!

ah Radium....your figures sound 'safe'. I'd be prepared to use your 'formula' on this one!! Thankyou.

As far as 'bits'n'pieces' of R32 and other 'halfamongrels' mentioned in previous threads.....I wonder if these are "registered vehicles. :wassup:

In a typical run of small cars... eg. Accent, Corolla etc. - they can expect 40,000-50,000 per year.

Now how many do Skylines do you see?

My point is that for a cheap performance car (ie. I expect R34 GTt to be under $40,000) - is it surprising you don't see more!

How many Honda Preludes, Toyota Celicas or locally sold coupes do you see?

I will prove to you how common r33s are..

carsales, a popular commonly searched car site, has a listing of the top 5 cars that are searched for on their website.

The Skyline ranks just below the Holden Commodore, and just above the Ford Falcon.

The proof is in the pudding.

dosent that mean more people are tryin 2 get rid of their skyline instead of having one registered?

and besides, if I had an R33 I'd be gettin rid of it too :) :flame:

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
