I reckon most people here would wish you the best of luck in finding a cheap R33 'gem'. We all like a success story around here, if the comments seem a little negative then it's only because we don't want you getting stung.

good luck mate.

Personally I reckon you'd be doing well to find a manual 95 or newer under $18,500 that was worth paying money for.

even if you import them through a broker you wont do much better than that. just remember - there's about a three thousand dollar premium on the manual box.

so for a 93 - you might find one for $17 ?

btw - I had a listen to Rev210s car the other night, and it sounded pretty healthy. that flywheel makes it so much more free-revving!

yeh dude 17grand is cheap for a good skyline maybe u should save a little more and then get a nice one, u'll be really pushing it to find one for that money. and of course u'd be offended if your selling your car for 19 and someone tries to get it for 16 - wheres the logic?

Your Silvia was a complete loss because it's auto, N/A, what did u expect? ..if you're after a decent 33 with a straight body, no panel damage, immaculate interior and a well kept engine, you won't be paying budget prices. There is a shortage of good ones around. $25k+

Personally I doubt most private sales will get anywhere near their original asking prices. People are shying away from the import market due to insurance and finance hassles, this is bad for sellers.

People want imports, but sometimes, the hassles involved do not justify paying big $$$ for.

Silvia1992, keep looking dude, when you have one you like, take it to a workshop that works on these cars day-in-day-out and get them to test it. RAC are useless. Best of luck!

i baught mine recently for 19500 haggled down from 22 as payed in cash and offered various sexual favors 1995 Type m skyline White stock as a rock , but spotless in and out , engine runs well no problems! . i was once looking at ones in M Motors justl ike you for like 16000 17K! i was like yeah cheap skyline

I'm about to buy a 1994 R33 GTS25 (Non-Turbo) for $13,000. Its very stock, no mods wats so ever, just a JVC stacker. And done about 90,000km with new tyres with the stock rims. Its got all the usual features, air con, HICAS etc, but no ABS. How is this for value? Wat do u guyz think, any advise would b appreciated.

Thanx...:P
