hmmm.. i think its reasonable with going on what is available in Melbourne, and the prices considering imports have slowed to a trickle presently.

As long as its A1 condition throughout and you have a bit of a history for it (is it private sale or other?), I think it would be worth it.. At best I'd say you'd find a good n/a is for $12k. Don't forget P-platers in Melb aren't allowed to drive the turbo versions legally (and they're starting to crack down on it), so there is still a demand for n/a's on their own.

If any of you can point him towards an actual one for sale in Melb which is heaps lower than that price and forsale this second then i'm sure he'd be happy to hear. What is the sound of silence? ;)

I paid a few grand more for my GTS-T than the going rate to get a good one a while back - never been worried about that decision... its saved me money

so? i just had a quick look at carpoint and the trading post sites then - what u'd look for if u lived in melb and looking for cars.. not too much R33 GTS under 14k at the moment..sure maybe $13k but like i said, not hundreds of them forsale atm.

Each state is different in terms of prices for each type and things like that. If he wants it cheap as possible, do the import thing, he'll get it for maybe 10k - but not everybody can do that for misc reasons.

Looking for a car shouldn't be a one week thing. It takes time to find a great car at a great price.

And btw, even though I'm in Adelaide, I was looking to buy my car in Melb. coz at the time there were better deals there than here in Adel. Wasn't too much difference in price between states, melb was slightly cheaper, coz theres more skylines there than here.

YEAh atm i cant find any r33 n/a for less than $14000. i have been looking for a long time now and it seems to my disbeilf that N/A have gone up in price in melbourne. I dont want a turbo for a number of reasons. I also spoke to a company callend STRIKE PERFORMANCE in melbourne that is looking for a n/a already in melbounre and complied for around 12g-14g he said.

The car pitured at the my first tread is still in japan, but yeah i think it is a bit to much for a n/a.

But if anyone is selling one in melbourne plz let me know.

thanks for all the feedback too.

cheers..

    • Excuse me, but 2) does apply 1) Would also apply if you consider how much is spent in the alternatives. Also there's the option of 3), buy one pre-built that you can put your family in (it's me, it's my car)   That said, I went on a ~500km drive the other day. I didn't use anything more adventurous than 3rd/4th gear at about ~3000RPM and 50% throttle and I was going as fast as anyone has any sense doing on a public road, with enough grip to the point where I didn't want to go any faster. I was obviously under the limit of the current car etc etc. MX5 with 2.5 N/A to achieve the same speed would be more fun for any road scenario. Maybe consider cams. I wouldn't boost it. The use case is just not there and it won't actually make the car more enjoyable unless you really do plan on wringing gears from 1st to 3rd (at least) at 100% WOT on a public road to 150+kmh.
    • Great if: 1. You had all of the money for everything else that is required  2. Lived in a country where you could actually do this and drive it legally on the road Sadly, neither applies to me As for the turbo, I am having second thoughts, mainly for engineering/registration legality reasons and insurance  Not saying I've finished doing stupid things that I probably should do to the MX5, but boost, and V8 engine swaps isn't on the cards Strange, but true 
    • I like this page, better than that silly turbo kit   https://v8roadsters.com/product-category/engine-conversions/engine-conversion-lsx/engine-conversion-lsx-nc/  
    • That would be my Shoei helmet
    • Yes shipping here can be a pain, was about to purchase timing belt replacement kit, but it tends to get expensive due to shipping (and customs if importing from non-EU which the UK now falls under).
