WANTED: Skyline for $8000 fully complied and with RWC


Recommended Posts

Hey i am looking at buying a car in june. ill have 8k max too spend on the car itself with a furthur 2k for insurance and rego. Any suggestions on where to look? p.s. im not interested in importing, its to risky with such a low bank, and by the time its totally onroad and rego'd and insured it will be more than 10k. R32 or R33 prefered. MUST BE SKYLINE not pulsar or silvia or 180sx or anything. Thanx in advance for any help given :rofl:

You will probably get a few guys on here replying mate

That isnt huge money for one of these cars, I got rid of my uncomplied import for that kind of money and it needed a bit of work plus I needed to get rid of it.

Have a look on carsales.com.au and carpoint.com.au and tradingpost.com.au for some ballpark figures.

Another tip though, whatever your budget for insurance and the car, remember these cars need maintaining and things do go wrong with them so build that in too.

HTH

i have a

1989 Nissan skyline R32 GTS type S four door sedan

Only 90,000 klms

5 speed Manual

complianced and registered and in good condition.

you can have it for 9k if your interested

theres an automatic skyline, 1994, wine, with sunroof, exhaust and wheels. Very low km's and in good nick. A mate is importing it down, and will be here around 1st-2nd week of march.

He wants 14K for it, but he might go down to 12,500. Complianced.

$8k? you wont get much for that! you want a decent skyline for 8k i'd also say get a modded r31! or you could always go and get a non turbo r32........but even then, it would probably be clapped out!

If you really want a skyline for 8K. You can fly upto Japan and buy one for around 5K. What you wanna do with it after that is upto you. But you save yourself 3K on the car anyway :rofl:

yeh but mate getting it complied costs like 1200...then theres import costs.....and stamp duty..watever that is...plus numerous other costs...u are looking at 11k by the time its on road and rgo'd and everything....11k could get u a better R33.

baby skyline where do u live....why are u selling....and im sorry all i have is 8k

ohh and whoever made the diecast model car call..LMAo...LOL hAhaHAhah. nice one :rofl:

you can get them close to that cheap.

if you will take an auto you will get it that cheap.

I got mine (well will be) for under $10,000 and it was a grade 4.....so if you take a grade 3 or sumpin you would have to go *close* to your mark.....if u take a grade 3 and auto u will make it

I went thru http://www.allinoneimports.com.au not sure if they have gone up since the rule change, but check it out.

Mate, if you think you can get a R33 for 11K, then go for it. Also let us know where we can get them for that price. I will start a car yard if i got R33's for that price:)

Unless they are 4 door, Automatic, Non Turbo and have 250,000km's on the dash:)

i would like to start by saying allblitz you must be the biggest retard in the world if you dont think you can get an r33 into the country and registered for under 11k, i have imported 3 r33 gtr's for under 14 and i think that is still too much for a 33 (worst looking and performing skyline ever) anyway i have a hr31 gt passage for sale in that price range also i may have a couple of 32's for that price. once again allblitz learn about skylines before you try talking it up you sound like a dumbass you have obviously never seen how cheap they are overseas

    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
