They will not be the genuine Kms , they all come over like that ! never over 90,000kms , check what mods have been done and where they done ie: Which shop did the work , you could then ring them and ask about it .

Take it to a shop yourself and get them to look at it !

then all the usual used car junk that you do.

or you could just buy mine !!!!! Skylines Australia car of the month for October !

$25k is abit on the rich side especially since it is stock although it is from an importer/dealer so you may be able to talk them down afew $k.

For $25k i'd want something in absolutely mint condition, not a single mark or scratch making over 220rwkw before i'd even open both eyes at it but then again you may want a totally stock car.

Save your money and buy a '94-'96 for around $16-20k that already has a sound system, exhaust and maybe wheels etc. For example my '95 has 100,000km on it and is slightly modified and I want $19k. To take your '97 from stock form to where my '95 is (mods) would cost you a solid $8k ($25k + $8k = $33k for an R33 GTS-t = *ouch*) and it's still only pushing 190rwkw.

If I had $25k to play with i'd be looking at a '91-'93 R32 GTR or a heavily modified R33 GTS-t with all the work already done.

:P

thats fine, but its gonna be the missus car, i really dont want it doing 190kw, and i like that year body shape without going for a 99 model, and i do prefer a stock car and even if it costs more to do the little things that make a car, at least i know whats there, like if i was to get a car with 250kw at the wheels, you dont know whats inside of it and weather they took the cheap way out and used budget internals or decient stuff.

so i am the kind of person who likes to preform my own mods at my trusted mechanic, the main point is i am after a reliable car...

and in comments with the price, the window price was 29990, which i reall thought was high!!! and he has come down to 25,000, now i put this down to the fact that it is a 1997 model, they are going to put 19" Drift R wheels on it, and its only 66,000 kms, but like i said i am only new to imports and the last skyline i own'd was an 89 which i had no drama's what so ever, i only hope the new car will do the same.

But in regards to the power, i currently have a 2003 BA FPV GT-P with 257rwkw, but trouble is the car is really heavy 1.9ton to give a figure, but we are looking to sell it and then i will be purchasing a car for myself, just havint decided between TwinTurbo Supra or Skyline, mainly i am looking towards Autosalon and competing in the sound comp, and looking to beat the australian record of 163Db, a hatch is really good for this purpose, but i lub the look of the skyline, Damn why must there be so many nice cars around!!!!!

In that case being for the missus you could save even more money. Quite easily get a stock car (maybe air filter and exhaust at the most) for $16-18k (94-96 model). A $30k window price for a '97 (last year model of the R33 GTS-t's) is absolutely outrageous.

I'd suggest spending an hour in the 'For Sale' section and your eyes might open slightly wider.

lol, this car is from a dealer/importer, no work done, stock, except it had a remote start, but no remotes lol just antena.

can you e-mail or msn me some details...

just click on the link in my sig to see the mods , and click on the pic link on the side in my profile to see the pics , I would send you out the info , but it takes forever for me to type it out to each person seperately,

it's making 160rwkw on low boost , and at the push of a button it is around 180rwkw, it's very streetable as it has the standard turbo.

Just to put things in perspective, I bought my 97 GTST just over 6 months ago for $20k. It's in mint condition, was basically stock when I bought it (other than exhaust, air filter, Mines ECU and 17" wheels) and had been owned by a mature age owner. Had service records and receipts for timing belt change etc as well. He initially advertised the car for $23k, but I bargained him down to $20k. I looked at a lot of Series II GTST's over a few months and this one was by far the neatest example I had seen. I was prepared to pay up $23k, but by searching for a while and bargaining a little, I think I got myself a fantastic buy. My advise - be patient, look at as many cars as you can and be prepared to bargain a little. You should be able to score yourself something very tidy for around $20k... $25k is way overpriced for a stocker.

$25,000 is way over priced.

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
