Selling the skyline, where have YOU had good results?


Recommended Posts

Thanks for the replies,

I am selling because I have bought a SIL80 and cant afford to keep both. I am after around 22k, and will be loosing a fair bit on it, as is usual when selling a car, especially when you buy a stocky and start modding :P

sunday times sux big time, not one phone call, autotrader all the way, it came out on a friday and mine was sold on the saturday, so no compaints there, its a little pricey but worth it if u want it sold.... and i think as long as you price it right it should go :(;)

i found the sunday times was good, and the quokka and autotrader were ok.I think every situation is different.

Be prepared for many time wasters on the forums, the majority of them already own cars and want to ask you 100 questions even though they have no intention to purchase...or want to say "if only you were selling this in a couple of months.." or "if only you lived in Vic/NSW/AnywherebutPerth

i found the autotrader jerked me around when it came to selling 300ZX ..... they double charged me for the ad then refused to refund me :rant: wouldnt use them if last person on earth.

Carpoint i found was one of the best for stirring up interest.

Im in the same position. I'm trying to offload an R32 GTR, advertised in the Sunday Times, Autotrader etc and not one phone call. Going to lower the price now because its rather urgent that the car goes SOON!

New car is on the way!!!

Avram - car is now off the market so I can come and take you for a spin some time if you like :)

I had no luck what so ever with the Sunday Times or Autotrader. Lots of dipshits calling but that was about it. In the end I've decided to keep it and buy a second car as a run about.

GTRs are magnets for WuckFits!

Yeah basically to cut a long story short, it fell through. Car was never "on the way" as such, a little bit of money was put down just to reserve a spot. Contract was subject to me selling my car as well as finance etc. Salary packaging bunch sorted it all out for me :rofl:

Instead I've decided to keep it, and buy another car.

    • Starter motors used to use the weight of metal (magnets) to provide torque. Now they use (more) current instead. This. It's completely normal.
    • So thing that had me stumped, but I think is OK....is that when it was up in the air, in neutral I had it running to bleed to coolant while I put the wheels back on. I noticed the rears were turning (slowly) which I'd never seen before 20250928_163512.mp4     Because there had been an issue with clutch slip due to pedal adjustment on the dyno, I assumed there was still and issue so spent some quality time upside down under the dash adjusting the pedal....but no matter what I did the wheels still turned in neutral. Even disconnected the master cylinder to pedal rod and same. In despair, I even removed the clutch slave so there was no chance of any preload causing it.....still happened. So either: 1. Something is not right in the bellhousing, or 2. Its a thing sometimes with cold, thick gearbox oil Internet says it might be 2, I hope so!
    • OK, few more things sorted and it is ready for a shakedown on 10-Oct, with one weird thing. Changed the run in oil and filter for the good stuff. 8l came out, about 8.5 went in with filter so that looks all good. Changed the starter (again), this time for a brand new one, works good. Interesting that the Taaaarks one is shorter than factory but spins harder, I guess electronics have moved on a little in the last 30 years. Will be nice to have a bit of extra space under there. Put the timing cover back on, and noted where the cam gears were set as a record.  Will need to double check the timing but it is pretty close. Also put the coil pack cover and intake snorkel back on. Exhaust Inlet Changed the water out for coolant, bled up nicely. Removed the rear brake pads (well worn factory sumitomo ones!), gave the hardware a good clean and reassembled. I've put bendix XP on the back again because the price is excellent at $150 a set and they worked well on the V37. Front pads have plenty so no issue there
