  1. Hi guys, I've had my Skyline since 2005, and I was always a Skyline lover, but never a car enthusiast. In my younger years I kept thinking about all the things I was going to do with it, but it ended up just being a car to be driven from point A to point B. Eventually I got a company car for about 5 years, so it just sat in the garage, and by the end of that period, I definitely had no more desire to do anything with it. It is now getting older and needs more love than I am willing or capable of offering it, and it has quite a few issues, so I thought I'd come and list those here and see if anybody could let me know what they believe would be a fair price if I were to sell it privately, to someone who is into tinkering with cars as it's currently just sitting in my garage, and has for about 4 months, and I don't have any plans of turning it into anything more than it currently is. Here we go: Details: Nissan, Skyline R33, GTS-T, Manual, 1994, 201,000km, imported in 2005 at 103,000km The good: Absolutely stock standard, never even had an exhaust installed. Never trashed (lost license for speeding 5 months into getting my license, never had it in me to lose it again and haven't) No drags/events Never been in an accident Racing timing belt kit installed 5 months ago Never been smoked in The not so good: Back shocks are gone AC pulley is gone Power-steering pump has been replaced but leaks pretty badly (I think it's just the seal) Clutch has been feeling a bit soft in recent times. Haven't run into issues with it though. Probs just needs a bleed. Some asshole tried to steal it and damaged the driver-side lock (looks fine, doesn't turn) Paint needs a touch-up (nothing major, the underside of the front bodykit has some larger scrape marks and some isolated spots on the car, nothing bigger than 2-3cm) Head gasket needs to be replaced That's about it. I'm interested in what you guys think I could sell it for to an enthusiast, or what you think would be worth my time having fixed to avoid being low-balled too hard. Please keep in mind, I'm not looking to sell it here, so please try to give me advice if you can as opposed to low-balling me some offers. Thank you in advance!
  2. I think you should just go look around your car, and find the footprints.
  3. Lol, ah yes. I must press the on and off alarm buttons 27 times or the world is going to end! I also flutter 9 times at each traffic light or Commodores will become better than Lines
  4. For turning a love into an obsession . Its like... The more time I spend on these forums the more time I find myself spending around the car even if its not necessary. It started with reading the "You know you drive a Skyline" thread, which pushed me into cleaning the interior of my car, which lead to me scrubbing the engine too, then washing it thoroughly, and last night, I went out with some mates, and it was pouring, and when I got back home, I found myself in the garage with the chamois cloth drying my car up, even though I had to leave my house in another 2 hours which meant it would get wet again. And it did... And there I was at 12 30 am last night, in the garage, with the chamois... So what can I say? I blame all of you guys, but then again... 'She' deserves the attention.
  5. ... you come on here, read all these posts and feel like you're not paying enough attention to your baby, so you jump into some trackies and a hoodie, go outside at 9 PM and enter the house for the first time at 11:15 PM, satisfied that you have scrubbed/vacuumed/dusted your interior to the last inch, and have opened the bonnet to rub down every freaking part that you could reach with a dry cloth to ensure 'she' feels appreciated. Haha. Its happened to me too. I was parked while my mate went in to buy some drinks for a party, I was laughing cos my mate looks like he's 15 even though he's 20 and cops were driving right by him, and the cop parked next to me... signed me to put the window down and said: "Just take it easy son". I'm like: "Um... Always" and he goes: "I know what young kids like you do in them powerful cars and it never ends up pretty, so just take it easy." And then he reversed and took off.
