hey guys,

i'm new to the site and new to skylines in general. i posted this thread in another section of the site but i only found out about the NA section now.

i've had my Ps for a couple of months now and am looking for a first car.

a family friend of ours is selling a 93 model R33 GTS4 auto non turbo RB25DE. its black, immaculate condition inside and out, not a single scratch on the body. all stock except for the full body kit. its done 80,000 Ks. i know i should be going for a manual but i'm in Vic and have an auto license so i can't drive manual till i'm off my Ps.

he's askin $7,500 for it. does the price sound about right for this car? i have no idea what these cars go for

so any help is greatly appreciated

cheers

Sounds like a good deal to me, sucks with your laws how you need to wait till you're off your P's to drive a manual... I did both tests :rofl:

Yea so if you're keen on it get it, your only other option really is to get an even cheaper run about auto until you can get something nicer in a manual.. although for that price it could be considered a run about anyway.

Get it! :rofl:

save your money and buy GTR when you have money and skill to drive it.

he's not planing on getting a GTR now, he didnt even mention it? :thumbsup:

For that money you will not find a better car. period. get it before someone else does! cheap motoring. at that price there will be bugger all depreciation. RB25DE is pretty good on fuel too. I average around 9L/100km (manual). Just confirm that he has serviced it and not thrashed it too much!

If you've got your auto license but want a manual car, then do your manual test and then look for a manual car. Don't get an auto if you like driving a manual or you will regret it.

    • I'm pretty much healed up post surgery so I spent another almost full day out in the shed re-arranging everything to make room for all of the shit that I've taken off the car.  I need to get everything off the floor and away from the car for when I start making a massive mess stripping off the remaining body deadener and then for the the painting process.  Almost got the shed to a point now where I feel I can actually start working on the car again (clean shed clean mind or something!).  Almost 11 years of accumulated car parts, building supplies, tools, junk, etc have taken a long time to get in some sort of order again!  Most stuff is now boxed up and in the back shed if it's not car related.  Most people would still be horrified walking into my shed but it's significantly better than it was before!   For those that saw my separate post the other day, yeah I ordered one.... This version- I convinced myself to stop being a clown, wake up to yourself and realise it will take you 5 weeks to make one by which stage you're over working on the car again...  Maybe I am getting on top of my "mental ailments" and making smarter choices.... $1450 delivered which will take my miserable half-dutch arse a few days to get over having spent that much!  If I don't have a use for it straight away after my car is off it I might even see if there is a "rental market" for them.  See if anyone wants to hire it for a period of time.  $25 a week or something like that.  I'll worry about that when my car is actually ready to come off it though as that might be a while away!! There's now no excuses now for not ending up with an underside you could eat off! Away for kids sport the next few weekends so hopefully can get the rotisserie assembled ready to go for the car to go straight on it the next available weekend.    
    • I always use my Karcher, but it's only a little one that I picked up from Supercheap  The only issue I ever had with a pressure washer was when I was a kid cleaning coaches, they had a hi-po industrial sized petrol jobbie that would strip paint if you got to close I saying this, we have a fairly high power washer at work with a diesel powered heater that sprays water at about 60°c, it works great for removing old wax and road grime on the underbody after some foam cannon action, albeit from a "stand off" distance of a few feet
    • Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!
    • Did the noise appear after your sand trap adventure? Could be something got dislodged and is playing rub rub. Even a rock wedged somewhere.
    • Is there a shroud around the tailshaft spline into the back of the box? They can rub and make a horrible noise if they are not on straight/damaged. The heat might have caused it to grow too much in one direction and rub.
