yer manual with 86500 on the clock...

mate there is people selling them for $20k+ as well

a car is what someone is willing to pay for it. redbook is a disgrace, i would never use that, it under values cars by massive amounts....

the insurance companies use that as market value, so they can screw you when it comes to claim time

I paid $10900 for my '94 R33 4 door with 68000klms on the clock, no scratches, no dents perfect engine, just complianced. Came with a touch screen head deck too!!  :(

yeah, but its a 4 door....

*hides from 4 door owner flaming

Whats wrong with a 4 door?? :P

Could have bought the 2 door he had for the same price with less klms :)

Four door was what i wanted, rare.

And 4door_Sleeper where did you get that kit and how many $$$$????

I don't why they balked at $13k.. thats perfectly possible these days with the price falling so much on them.

True.

R33s are undervalued while R32s are holding their value well.

I don't know why you have problems with the RTA.

Back in 2002 I stated mine at $12k??? Something ridiculous and they thought it was fine.

Must have been thinking about old R31s that day!

T.

4door_Sleeper where did you get that kit and how many $$$$????

Thanks GTS-TBoy

The kit is a mix of bits form Australia and New Zealand (I had lots of trouble finding anything I liked for a 4 door, and the Impul kits gave me nothing but grief) All up, fitted it probably cost my $3000

Heres another pic from a different angle

You need to pay stamp duty when you first register it.

Can you prove you paid $13k for it? Or have you imported it?  When I did my GTR recently they accepted the FOB $5K! rofl

ahh...for that . yeah i know bout that...but yeah, when i got my car the seller agreed to put $2k on the papers instead of $6500 so yeah...never got asked a question

also heard from someone on here, who i wont name, that they did it with their skyline for $5k for an R33....

so do they check into this shit? or is it safe to "alter" these figures. lol

From memory the tax is on the the GREATER of the "Purchase Price" or "Market Value", and there are penalties for declaring under the correct figure. That said I dont know if they do check, and I think most people drop the private sale rice by a few thousand.

Be reasonable (especially if then question you) and you should be OK, its not worth the hassel for a saving of under $100 (one tank of fuel)

yeah but cant u argue that you bought it off a mate etc, and he wasnt going to give it to you free, but was extremely generous and sold it to you ridiculously cheap...shit like that!

    • Good tips, will get on those tomorrow. When doing the maintenance I did move a few of those connectors around, and things that are old tend to not like moving around. (Like me).
    • Don't try it. It will be shit. Better chance of damaging the engine than gaining any knowledge about the old one. Maybe, but unlikely, especially if the O2 sensor is working. You can use NissDataScan to look at the stock ECU.   Cleaning the AFM is seldom necessary and seldom helps. The R35 coil & loom conversion should eliminate dud coils or plugs. But as you still have misses - look to the plug where the coil loom connects to the engine loom, and the CAS plug. Need quality connections there. Also look to injector plugs. And the AFM plug while you're at it. Also look to whether your injectors are clean and flowing evenly. Get them out and onto a testbench.

    • Hey folks. I've been lurking and browsing the forum for a while, since I got into my head that I wanted a skyline. Having purchased an overpriced completely stock GTT, (only "mods" it has is HKS pod filter and catback) now that it became legal in the US, it was all glorious and sututu noises here and there. But then I wanted to do things right and went to do basic maintenance. After all the fluids, filters done, I did the spark plugs, that's when the problems started.. First the car started spluttering at around 4.5k RPM. Which I gapped down the new plugs and that solved the sputter there, but the car now always misfires at idle with pops when lifting off and shifting 2nd to 3rd. Similar to the issues in this recent thread. I've been banging my head against the wall, reading the threads here and trying suggestions for a couple months now, so decided to start this one to explain exactly what I tried and what is going on. The symptoms of the issue: Idle and low revs misfiring intermittently. You can hear the exhaust tone change and the shakes on the shifter knob. It happens frequently, but doesn't seem to have a rhythm to it. Pops when backing off throttle. It pops and or burbles almost feels like it spits fire when it pops. (Happens mostly in 3rd gear at around 2k RPM). When under load and after 6k RPM, it also pops when shifting from 2nd to 3rd. There's a ticking noise at around 2k RPM in 2nd gear going downhill, seems unrelated though but I am out of educated and downright dumb guesses. Not noticeable lack of power when putting the car into load. The attempted diagnosis and solutions: Unplugging coils when the car is running This did nothing to change the idling and tone shift for every cylinder. Checking the exhaust headers with thermometer They all are within what I'd say it is margin of error of the laser thermometer New spark plugs Tossed two new sets, copper, iridium and using the old ones, still misfiring, even re gapped to 0.8mm, still same thing. MAF cleaned with the "specific" spray cleaner No changes in the issues what so ever. Brand new loom and r35 coil conversion (was going to add the r35 coils anyway) car runs arguably better, still misfires, but seems like does less frequently. Placebo? Code 21 now being thrown, thanks nissan gods. Removed the CAS to check the shaft for play or anything. CAS seems all fine, nothing that indicates any issue, visually speaking. Things to attempted next: Ordered a new MAF (chinesium from Amazon, to be able to return regardless of result). Fuel with proper gas, maybe it is this California water that they sell as gas that is to blame? Plugin the link ECU and check the info using the built in base map. Go back to BMW and eat my rob bearing breakfast without milky oil mixture.   Do any of you have experienced anything like this or have any suggestion?
