"thats like buying a VR vs a VT" not at all...VR & VT have a completly different floorplan.

"Thats a good $14000. " yeah if you were buying all the parts new, you got em 2nd hand so make that $4000.

"Why pay $20 for a stocky" so you know it hasn't been flogged maybe? Anyway you can get a stocky in QLD for 15K and a series 2 R33 for 20K

So no offence but I wouldn't have paid more than twenty for yours either regardless of how many scratches its got.

Fair enough.

Gordo, keep your car and we can become the dynamic skyline duo :bahaha:

I paid more than that for my R33, but remember R33 went from 1993 to 1997 and thats like buying a VR vs a VT, lots of models and lots of years!  My 96 has additional features std over the earlier 33 including Variable Cam Timing, Dual Airbags, ABS, larger spoiler, different front end styling, not to mention allot less Km's.

Yeah that was abit vague, I meant like 93/94 models.

Cool, with the VR-VT, let me back it up to VS S2 then, that will be valid enough.

If you can find all that stuff for $4k, hook me up because thats damm cheap, maybe 7 or 8k 2nd hand but 4k, thats a good deal dude.

Also now, cost of complying a car has virtually doubled now since this new system in May 03. So that should be pushing the value of all our skylines up, especially the modified ones.

Also, that price I said included compliance and registration, drive away.

Are the prices your talking about for uncomplied cars?

    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
    • I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.
    • If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
