You should be looking around the $10k bracket anyway...

The cost of insurance will bump you up to around $15,000 if you're wanting to insure an import on P's.

Here's a list of Car sales and Importers

B)

I have an R33 Gtst Automatic, Turbo, Silver as seen here: http://www.allblitz.com.au/cars/japcars/94gtstm3.html

All mods except Exhaust have been removed. Vehicle has been complianced. I can let go of this one for $13,900 With 12 Months REG.

It is due to come to Melbourne mid next week.

went to carizma today had a good deal R33 GTS-4II manual for 19900 is this a good deal?? only had 60000kms

So you are looking for a non-turbo? Both the GTS and the GTS4 are non-turbo i hope you know.

hehe, u cant tell dezz is always looking around constantly, but its wot u have todo to get a good car. it used to annoy the hell outta me looking for spevefic things in a car and finding the same cars still on there week in week out

im looking to sell my car, to buy a ute or a 4wd, havent advertised it yet though

now pushing 220rwkw without injectors, will let it go for pretty cheap, can drop u the specs

I was gonna strip most of the stuff off but i cbf, if i can get around the 17-18 mark for it ill be happy

Buy private, not a dealer. Non turbo GTS i'd look for a series2 if you can find one, should be able to get one for 13-15k?

Don't pay any attention to km's on the clock, 99% of imports are wound back, pat attention to the condition of the car, seats, steering wheel, gearstick/handbrake leather, pedals etc.. and how well it has been maintained.

hey mate... i know you said no to a turbo, but maybe if your dad saw that u can pick 1 up for $12k, series 1 33 GTS-T with a shit load of mods, he may re-consider?

there's 1 for sale at the moment for that price...in the for sale section

o would most people agree better to go private eventho some dealers have warranty and cheap spare parts??

Dealer warrentys aren't worth much. Since it is thier own money they have to fork out they try to get out of paying for anything. Factory warrenties are different - they are worth it, but only come on a new car.

Besides dealers are good at hiding things. The more they hide about the car the better the price they can get.

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
