I am selling a 1994, Wine, Auto, Turbo with under 65,000kms.

Extras it has:

Sunroof, Exhaust, Alloys Wheels, Nice Double Din CD/CASS Player.

Price: $14,300 with R.W.C and 12Months REG.

I guess you paid a bit too much for yours

don't listen to them, Habib. that will buff right out... good as new.

If you don't have the right polishing equipment my cousin can do it no problem.

i agree with allbitz it's gonna cost at least 10k to fix u;ll get about 4g for the wrcked parts.

you'll pbly have to get a new front cut to fix dat..

you'll get more than $4K for the parts. The engine should be ok I reckon...

not another wreck.. too many r33 out there already.. they're all in melb and sydney too :)

Well.. Looks like about at least 2000-3000 worth of parts, depending on where you get them from.. radiator, bonnet, lhs guard, grill, intercooler, headlights, aircon piping, etc. Then there is fixing up the chasis, then there is whatever other work that needs to be done of that nature.. maybe a couple of grand there. Then you need a full front respray.. another $1-2000 there.. It's not a complete write-off I wouldn't say, but quite close to it. I've seen skylines like that get fixed. Often it looks worse than it is.

. but yeah, not cheap.. you snooze.. you lose..

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
