1: Check the buyers guide for plenty of info on what to look out for when buying a stagea found here: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...showtopic=92065

2: I would be getting a mutual mechanic to do a compression test, ie: One that you choose, not the dealer!

3: The auto gearboxes in these stags and a very strong bit of gear, i and a quite a few other people here in melbourne have over 150kw at wheels in our stags and have not had a drama with our boxes, providing like others have said you maintain them ie: bigger auto cooler (very cheap and inxspensive upgrade, keep the auto fluid topped up etc.)

4: Check for rust, inside the door where the mirror is mounted just near the door trim at the (mine has a little bit of rust there, but lucky for me no where else that i can see. In the buyers guide it also explains where else you might find rust.

5: There really is not much else to say, they are a great car and i am extremely happy with it, i have had mine for around 5 months now and have not had a drama, i service mine every 5000 kms and my mechanic reakons its in as new condition. Parts are very easy to find if its mechanical or steering and suspension components as majority of it is skyline gear: Radiator, motor, brakes, suspension and there are so many parts from skylines that can be upgraded on the stags if you find it hard to find parts for them.

Panels: Will be your only problem if an unexpected accident occurs, but if you are fully insured then you really wont have much to worry about.

Personally for a Series 2 i think that it is a reasonable price especially considering its in australia already.

Yeah that one looks pretty good, honest kms on it, get an inspection done and if it's been looked after go for it. 133k ain't "high" kms, the engine should still be perfect if it's been serviced properly.
