Is My Skyline Rare?


Recommended Posts

OK, for starters your car was made in October 1993. Its came out of the factory as a dark blue. I haven't decoded all the R33 options yet (should do it one of these days), but what's interesting is that yours is a GTS25TML, which is a rare R33 GTSt.

According to paulr33 (off his old website which is now defunct):

There was a limited run of R33 GTS25TML specification, which is a Type M with Active LSD. The diff is a skyline GTR vspec diff, electronically controller LSD instead of a normal R33 diff. It features the same finned cover and A-LSD function as the Skyline GTR.

Cool thanks mate, was wondering why my car seemed different to other 33's i've been in, even just the interior is slightly different.

This makes me a happy camper, now I can say I dont just own an R33 GTST-T, but a gtstml!

Yay.

So apart from the Active lsd, the slip light on the dash, ABS, driving lights, and dual air-bags, I guess my car is the same as a GTSTM?

Thanks again mate.

BTW: Do you have any idea as to how many Gtstml's were produced? Cheers.

I'll assume that you meant to have a question mark at the end of your sentence.

The next thing to say is.....do you know how to use the internet?  Because you could search for for sale ads of R33s to find out what people are asking for them.

The more direct answer is, they are not worth much.  Although that depends on what you mean by "much".  For some people, $8k is a lot of money.

Mate, if you're just after a pricing estimate you can go to Redbook or look up similar cars on Carsales etc. To be frank, your car is not uncommon and accordingly to the RACV (my brother has one) is probably valued at around $7,000 - $15,000 based on mileage and the condition of the car etc.

Thank you I'll send more pic 

No need to send pics... we all know what a 33 looks like..

Step 1 - Go onto carsales

Step 2 - Search for R33 gtst

Step 3 - Look at prices???

Still don't know what you are trying to achieve though. Did you you buy the car just to resell it?

Now, let’s us ponder for one minute.

Are R33 GTST’s a rare bread? Not so much. But how about a R33 with a RB26 or a RB30 or hell a V12 engine or the like that looks like crap but is a 8 second sleeper?

Is the car now rare? Holy f**k-a-ronnie, rare as tits on a bull! ?

    • Oof, glad that it seems have gone much better than it could have. I have seen some pretty terrible tow truck handling just as a bystander. Zero fvcks given and no regard for the cars at all. Also broke down with fuel pump issues the other week as the wiring was on its way out. Roadside assistance guy used to have a Skyline and was looking at Stageas on the market. The tow truck driver also used to own a high powered Skyline and was telling stories about that. Apparently too fast to have any issues with being pulled over... Makes all the difference dealing with people who actually know their cars and care.
    • I had quite the scare last night. I was on the highway just toying around with an Audi. Right after an extended WOT pull, I lost all power. I cruised to a stop on the side of the highway and realized I had no fuel pressure. I keyed on/off a few times and could hear both pumps priming but pressure was still non existent. When you need a towing on a highway in Quebec, it's an automatic call to the provincial police. They don't mess around, they'll gladly destroy your car to get it off the highway asap. I pulled my bumper off as quickly as I could as to not have it destroyed getting it onto the truck. I got lucky as the tow driver was a car guy. He entertained the police while I finished up popping my bumper off and sticking it in my window. As we started taking off, the police drove by the tow driver to tell him we couldn't leave with the bumper sticking out the window. He pulled off on the first exit he saw, did a u turn and got right back on the highway in the direction of home lol.  With no leak insight, the only thing I could think of was a torn FPR diaphragm or a popped hose inside my fuel tank. This morning on removal of my Radium twin pump hanger, one pump hose was completely shredded and the other was on the verge of the same fate. Both hoses had swelled to double their size... I have no idea how I ended up not using submersible hose but clearly that's what happened. To make things even worst, Radium supplies submersible hose with the hanger... So either they supplied the wrong hose or I had the wrong hose laying around when I assembled it.  Looking over logs, my fuel pressure dropped to 0 roughly 10 seconds after a WOT pull. I was cruising and I'm confident the motors fine. Had that happened 10 seconds earlier, I'd more then likely be pulling the motor out. New hose arrives tomorrow, I'll put it back together then. 
    • Post 2 in this thread is my C34 with a R34 manual console, you can see it is a tiny bit different but not noticeable, and clips straight in. Only issue is you have to move the g sensor a little with the manual console.
