i am shocked i wake up to

scott come here scott my mum Yelling at me its like 11

she was outside with a white Gts-t Skyline r33 outside i am like wtf is going on

I go out she shows me the car and says she found it at a dealer down the road i am Shocked for a Dealer in my shit town to have a import next i look at the price on the window thinking it will be heaps

$16999 i am shocked

Look over the car looks clean nice white body kit mags's 17's

120000ks

inside is a little worn hand brake and gear boot

it was imported in 2002

i get him to pop the hood

I find a

Big pod

Brand name front month intercooler

Turbosmart Bov

look at the exhaust and under the car

has 3" turbo back exhaust that isn't too loud which is just what i wanted

i see aftermarket Shocks and springs

Look at it i think its a M spec with bigger front brakes and LSD due to the wing caust its a 1994 with a big wing

anyway bak to my story i go inside and mum goes back to the dealer

i thing about it and go y not have a go i ring her tell him i will give him $15000

i wanting for a nah thats not right off him

he takes my offer of 15k and tells me it is off the market till i pay up gave me a week

I get 3 months warranty

i went to the bank later that day and i am buying it he has taken it off the lot i am still shocked

what r ya thoughts did i get a deal or what

from a dealer yes that is cheap, althouugh you are mistaken about a few things,

all 33 gtsts have the same brakes and LSD not just mspec.

just make sure its in good nick body and mechanically get a compression test done get someone that knows skylines to check it out it might be a rough car and u might not see it unless u know what to look for.

i know a bit about skyline and it looks fine to me

yes the day i get it i am taking to my Import mod shop that only works on Imports and they will check it over

Body is pretty good only thing is the seals on the windows and shit r going but my silvia was the same

What what All r33 have LSD do they i thought it was only M specs

yeah windscreen and rear window seals are often shit

probably best to take it to your import shop for inspection before u buy it rather than finding out any bad news (if there is any) after u get it.

all r33 gtsts have LSDs and the same brakes for sure, i have inspected about a million of them for friends buying and have had 2 myself :D

nice find man, atleast your mum knows what a skyline is, she mistook my GTR for my bro's 180sx driving down the st.

mark

:D Thats gotta hurt.

I reckon 15k from a dealer is an awesome price... gotta wonder how much he paid... :headspin:

just a question like 2 or 3  ppl said get a compression test done is this a thing thats notorious for all skylines or just the 33?? how can u tell if it needs a compression test done or if it has a lack of compression?

compression testing will show if there is something wrong with the engine, like damage or excessive wear, if a compression test comes out bad its best to do a leakdown test which will show exactly where the problem is.

any car you buy should have a compression test done for peace of mind. especially if its a turbo or hi performance car.

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
