Good price for a rebuilt R33.

who rebuilt it?

and what brand parts were used for pistons, rods, bolts/studs, bearings etc?

any receipts and details of the rebuild?

Was the new stock turbo direct from Nissan?

what did they charge for that?

lol... I was just asking questions.

was I rude in any way?

I don't think I ruined your thread at all.

I don't see why you can't say.

Yes. I have receipts from Nissan Parts department for new pistons, rings, rods, bearings, gaskets, turbo, water pump, oil pump, tensioner, timing belt all totaling $xxxx

and

Yes, I have a receipt from workshop xyz for the assembly of the engine and puting it back in the car all for $xxxx

all this work was done at xxxxxx kms and the car now has yyyyyy kms.

I was simply asking for details of what you had already stated.

why would you not openly state the workshop that did the work if you are recommending that the next owner goes to this shop.

obviously you are happy with them.

If you think that I have said something wrong on this thread, then please PM Blitz. he is a moderator on these forums and will remove my post if he believes that I have broken the rules.

krzysiu - I agree.. I start shit. but show me where I've done that on this thread.

I only asked simple questions like saying "got any pics"

I reckon GTST had a fair enough question. Might have been interested myself if rich flavour was willing to be open about where the work was done. :thumbsup:

Oh well, good luck with the sale ;)

    • Noted. Have noticed BMW are more 'high maintenance' for sure. They've attracted my attention as I think the used car prices seem reasonable vs other options, and the extra quality overall vs a commodore / camry / corolla or similar of the same vintage is appealing, especially the interior, and they are more on the sporty side whereas the others mentioned can be more cruising or economical A-to-B only.
    • Haha yeah I know, this is SAU after all, why are we talking about BMW's of all things!? I hear you on the 'don't have to worry about it' side of things. Having been fortunate enough to be have been able to buy a brand new motorbike or two...never really enjoyed them as much as I'd have liked as you worry so much about where you park it, will it get scratched, stolen, attempted theft, knocked over, etc...and yes dirty. Older less valuable bikes you can just go where you want and park it wherever and not really worry that much in comparison. And who cares if it gets dirty! Never owned a V8, and have had my eyes on VE / VF commodores for years but with their prices climbing so high, the M3 has come into focus more as prices are much closer than I've ever seen...is it a potential contender now?...of course need to factor in the S65 'maintenance' especially and like you said general M car 'tax'. One can dream anyway. But more on the reality front - did read the whole 330i thread as well and was a great read too, both threads enlightening as I've never even driven one of these cars! I do recall 330i didn't seem to have the same amount of issues for almost the same car (turbos and related differences notwithstanding)...perhaps down to getting it earlier in it's life so looked after better than the 335i? Perhaps so as your 130i has been good and quite similar, so finding a car that's been looked after well is the especially-crucial-BMW-first-step.
    • Nice. Dont worry about the time of not running. My current skyline hasn't run since I bought it. About 8 years ago.
    • 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.
