As it say want one of these 10k MAX preferably under and in MUST BE IN NSW with NSW RWC at least, preferably with redgo

Would like 180sx, same deal 10k max prefferably under. I want either of these two vehicles, not picky what ever comes up first. Silvia K would also be considered.

I don't get it ... you want a NA, but a Silvia K would be considered???

Also I think you should reconsider your options with that budget.

If you manage to find a NA R33 for under $10K it will be an absolute POS. Even then you may not have much luck...

A NA 180Sx will be even harder, as these were built from 1996 on and had better interior and round tail lights etc...

Heres a link to a R33 under 10k - http://carpoint.ninemsn.com.au/marketplace...o=1&chkRows=500

I got nothing against turbos i just know that a turbo skyline under 10k.......i would be dreaming..as for a POS under 10k...the link to that one says other wise i think it looks like quite a nice car. I am looking at a r32 tommorrow that fits my order perfectly.....will let you know how i go on that one. Reason for the criteria is basicly i have had alot of problems finding the car i want the most, a 180sx, so i opening up my options as i am partial to the looks of the skyline . So my budget is 10k and i stress the NSW part because i have come across many probs in my painful search for a Nissan import......which basicly is the basis of what i am looking for...some thing that is a nissan and looks sweet. With that said i dont want a N/A silvia. Will add another to the list.....a N/A 300zx. And yeah i have seen them close to my budget for that price aswell......but wrong state...that hopefully clears things up.

Ahhh that car is $9,990 PLUS compliance costs, which for R33's at present is not cheap at all! So there you have it!

Anyway, that place is very close to me, and I have personally seen many of his cars at the panel beater prior to being ready for sale. Yep, they all look good in the yard, but you have no idea of how they once were. This unfortunately is the case with many of the cheap imports on the market...

my 2c:

180's look sh1t compared to skylines and silvia's look even worse so you should narrow it down to a 'line...hehe

i actually looked at that skyline you linked to above about 2-3 months ago when i was looking for my car but the salesman was a d1ck and basically i didn't want a bar of him or his cars. It was about 14k by the time rego and compliance was added on.

i ended up with an r32gtst for 11k after extensive looking. it has genuine 95,000k's and engine+trans in good nick. interior is also v.good. The reason it was cheap was it has no spoiler, side skirts, stereo, and was key'd (about 30cm long) on drivers side.

Basically my point is that with the really bad used car market a car in mehanically good condition is available but you have to take your time and don't go for a 4cyl...

Have you considered a soarer? can get ok cond one for 12k thesedays...

awesome man :D if you ever take it to the drags be sure to post up times because it would be interesting to see the difference between the r32 with its lighter weight compared to the r33 with the same engine.

I expect to see you posting in the NA forums now :)

cheers mate enjoy your car

      MAJOR FUEL ISSUES 25det neo r32

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Strange your posting about this being an issue. Move the harness or change your wheels or run more camber etc. Have the thing not touch the thing so it doesn't destroy the thing.  Short answer, no. Slightly longer answer, the factory fuel gauge is measuring resistance. You need to wire in the FPG fuel level sender into the original factory fuel level sender wiring.  I drew you a picture to explain this one The factory strainer is quite long, reaching down into the bottom of the tank. Safe bet your aftermarket fuel pump has a little baby sized strainer that probably doesn't even point down towards the bottom of the thank.  Solution, move the pump lower down in the tank, or fit a longer strainer, or do both. I did both, I've run my tank down to 5L remaining and the car still drove fine.

      Is r33 gtr steering wheel the same as the gtst?

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      S2/3 GT-R is the same as S2 GTS-t The SRS airbags module in under the centre console. The S1/S1.5 GTS-t and S1 GT-R had the module built into the steering wheel. FWIW, I have a S3 GT-R wheel in my S2 GTS-t shit box. Same airbag plug, airbag light goes on then off, meaning all systems are go. S3 GT-R has red stitching, that's about it.

      Dumb question, but why would it matter if the wheel came off a car with hicas or not?

      MAJOR FUEL ISSUES 25det neo r32

      By 25debt · Posted

      Hey to anyone that reads this, long time lurker first time posting, sorry if it’s been answered before but I’ve been looking for nearly a year now for answers. ive got a 25det neo in an r32 that works awesome when it works (made 500whp on 21psi) but works 45% of the time, 1st issue there’s a harness that runs under the passengers side front fender that my tire keeps rubbing through and one wire seems to power the fuel pump even though I’ve done the relay “mod” some people like to call it, and when it does rub through it kills the car, yes next time I’m with the car I want to take the fender off and try tuck the harness well out of the way but I’d also like to try and by pass this mysterious wire as well lol, also wouldn’t mind getting power from the alternator as I’ve read it supplies the pump with 13v ? But no idea where to run the power wire too. 2nd issue, when replacing my fuel pump and fuel hanger I managed to break the factory fuel level sender leaving me with no fuel gauge, I’d like to buy the fpg fuel level sender for r32/s13 but the plug it comes with confuses me, I’ve got a detschwerks x1 fuel hanger which has light + pump - level + pump + and a ground, I’m no auto sparky but I’m wondering if I can cut the plug off the fuel level sender and wire the negative to the pump negative and wire the positive to the level positive to get a fuel gauge back ?🥴 3rd and final issue, the reason I want a fuel gauge is because whenever it’s below half a tank, it fuel starves like crazy and runs like a bag of shit even without doing a pull or sloshing the fuel round in the tank, I’d also like to fix this but have no idea what’s causing it, I’ve got a dw420 and a dead head fuel setup meaning the fuel is regulated before it gets to the engine, my only theory is that the return line is to close to the pickup on the pump and when it’s at half a tank the return line is causing the pump to cavitate enough to cause fuel pressure issues, that or the pump isn’t low enough in the tank which I would find strange considering I can’t find a single thing online about it, also if ya wondering how I figured out it happens at half a tank without a fuel gauge, I waited until it started happening and went and filled up and the car took exactly 30 litres every time I tested it, if ya managed to read through this mess I appreciate that and any recommendations , cheers

      ChatGPT is trash and lies about things I would not expect it to lie about considering many things it's wrong about are very easily verified with google. The S3 R33 GTR shares its steering wheel with R33 GTSTs of the same production year. Part number is 48430-26U17. I'm guessing you have to get it from a car that came with HICAS though, the ER33 is 48430-26U18, but the HR33 diagrams note that part number is still leather vs 48430-26U13 which is not leather-wrapped. They all use the same airbags, so if you need another one you can get it off basically any same year R33 or Stagea.
