i was look'n through cars guide and others on the net and came across a fair few n/a r32,r33s for as low as 8grand.lots of them say very good cond and low ks.so would there be anything wrong with these or is it about the right price?

at the moment i've got an n13 pulsar and just purchased a cannon for it.i'm only gunna do the cannon cos it's a waste do'n other mods 2 it cos i will hopefully b get'n a 32 or 33 n/a.

will the cannon give an ok sound on the stock exhaust of my n13 cos thats all i am look'n for sound.

what engine is in ur n13?

u can buy a turbo upgrade motor, as one of my friends thought about this, getting a u12 or u13 engine, and whacking it in, about 1800 for engine, ecu turbo, everything minus the intercooler. If its a sr20 powered n13, do some mods to it, and being a lighter car should whip those n/a's a good view of ur ass ...

my n13 only has the small 1.6 so i'm not sure about mod'n it to much cos all the money that would be put into it i could use get'n something bigger like an r32,33 maybe.

But the cannon i got put on it sounds pretty sweet cos it sounds like i had a cat back exh done.

well get the engine swap done, 2 litre turbo, zoom zoom, oh hang on thats mazda hehehe.

depends on the condition of the car tho, and all that stuff, a skyline may just be the next stepping stone. Any reason your looking around at a n/a line ?

yep the r32 and 33 prices seem to be coming down . so many probably thousands been imported . i figure supply is getting greater than demand . also some have been here a while and have had the bejesus flogged out of them by now ( nanas dont buy em ) .

your too right mate. Definatley a buyers market out there. Alot of people buy the NA 'lines and then move on to bigger and better things. But you would be hard pressed to find a NA skyline that hasnt been flogged BUT thats not to say that there is anything wrong with them. Damn RB's are nearly bulletproof.

Not all the 32's and 33's in this price range are bad. I bought this cheapo skyline at the start of the year and it has been pretty well problem free (touch wood), other than a flat battery when it was delivered and the A/F Ratio being a bit out of wack (fixed with a quick tune up). With prices so low how can you afford NOT to buy yourself a skyline?!?!?! Good luck to you whichever path you choose.

Cheers all

    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
