that is seriously whacked....I know of 94 R33 with Rb20e but Series 2? I thought all series two came with the Rb25de or Rb25det

8 GTS type S Coupe 2320 FR AT G 2.0 RB20E E-HR33

yip. BADR33 over in NZ had one of these before he threw in an RB30DE. i'd say its pretty much exactly the same as his was, series II, 96, silver ECR33.

well - seems like you got yourself a fairly clean car with some nice wheels and audio. doesnt make ur loss as bad as it could have been. just learn from it and do your research before jumping into the deep end next time.

get it fully serviced, oils, filter, brake pads, check rotors, gearbox fluid, diff fluid, etc. and you should be set for another 10 000km.

If you are happy with the car then keep it.

if not, sell it. You might make a loss, but next time you will know for sure!!

Or sell the audio system and the rims and return it back to stock. Make some money that way, and sell the car..

Then go out n buy a r33 s2 rb25de or det for turbo!!

well i stand corrected

Well it looks like my old engine :D

R32 was a GTE (rb20e)

In the end I converted to RB25de all up it cost me $800 to convert it, you also don’t have to change the brakes that way, but don’t expect your RB20e auto gearbox to last long, I lost third gear within a month.

How can it be just cost you $800 to convert to Rb25de? You sold ur rb20e? I wanna get more detail about this. thanks

With your english skills I see how you got fooled into buying a "new" car with an ancient engine...

Im sorry but a VL has probably a newer engine that of yours... and my 96 skyline came with a RB25DET...

Heres what its meant to look like:

I suggest you go back and ask for your money back seeing as the guy sold you something other than what you wanted... its like hooking up with a chick who has a dick for pussy... totally wrong!!

Do you think that i still can take my money back since i bought the car in a long time already?

When did u get it? Any clauses if its from car yard? If u specifically asked for Rb25DE or DET engine then you got sold something else... id call department of fair trading and explain ur situation... cos seriously that sucks.

I think it was my mistake that i have to suffer by myself. By the way, any one can tell me that will be how much different from the price i get?

Yeah but if im buying a commodore SS from I expect it to have a big V8 or at least a supercharged V6... not a puny NA v6...

12 K is wont get u a great turbo R33 S2 but it will at least get u decent NA.

hai "hern ker see". Good lesson learnt there. Presuming you are a international student just from china? gotta to be so so careful! Ok honestly speaking u would be lucky to get more then 10500 from that car. Your only winning arguement is that it is a newish skyline. But that engine and a auto box doesnt do it any favours!. However depending how much u can find a RB25de, u might be able to sell the car for about 12000 with a rb25de.

Good luck! and next time "Xiao Xing"!!

"xie xie" Does the car with rb25de selling $12000 is with RWC ? and you mean that the car is just worth $10500? is that the price will be with RWC?

i get that car almost a month. i don't have any clauses. And i think i can't win with my situation. Really thanks to you. If the car with rb20e is worth 10,500 in the market. i think i just suffer $500.

    • It's also worth noting that I am heavily and unconditionally biased. I've had a lot of cars including some GTRs a fair while ago. I love my BMW's now a lot. They make no sense a lot of the time and the guys on here remind me regularly that I could get something else that does what I want better and cheaper. If you're going to take on an older BMW it's definitely a commitment. If you bail on it early you'll lose money and also the ability for it to put a smile on your face. Stick with it and it just gets better.  f**k I should get into advertising.  
    • Careful with posts like that around here without the flame suit on @cobo_11! 😂😂 My 330i journal is on here too. That car was so good and super reliable. We still have a 130i in the family which is almost identical to the 330i and easier to find in manual. It has also been almost faultless over the 6 or so years in the family.  I used to want an M car a lot more than I do now but if I'm honest and without trying to sound like a wanker, I can get such good performance and handling out of my 335 without needing to worry about all the crap that goes along with M car ownership. I don't need to worry about my bearings or subframe issues or the cost of replacing brakes or suspension or whether it has been impeccably maintained. And I can leave it places and not get upset when it's always filthy.
    • A pretty cool little feature discovered while restoring my seats.     
    • Great write ups / details / photos. I'm sort of on the road to E90 ownership (325i or 330i), haven't hit the fork in the road yet "Yes" | "No", and some of the issues you've faced have me nervous for the age these are getting to nowadays (that wiring, jesus), but I'm guessing the pro's of ownership are still outweighing the con's? Of course, if the bloody tattslotto ROI actually went my way...E90 M3. And I'd have the cash to do all the extra lovely maintenance THOSE require. 😄
    • They sure do, great for when you need to chuck a sickie 😅   You should definitely give the beast a squirt on the track, great to enjoy the car
