$17k cash - what will it get me in an r33?

Patience is the key..........you can go out and buy one now, but the best thing is to wait for a real bargin. if you keep your eyes open, something will pop up when somone needs a really quick sale and if you can give cash you'll get a great buy.......might take a while though, but in the end. better car for less $

Thanks for the input guys - the budget may be a little low for a series II but I'm sure that we will get one eventually.

We aren't interested in huge mods so a pretty stock car would do. It's got to be a series II because I want him to have dual airbags and abs + the interior and front end are just so much better in a series II.

Although we don't have a huge amount of time and therefore importing is not an option, we do have a small amount of time to wait and see if the right car at the right price turns up.

One thing that I have noticed is that there are plenty of r33 Skylines around for sale and not many of them are selling. It's just a matter of time until someone gets desperate

If, in a month or so, nothing turns up - I might just have to lend him some more money I guess.

The interior on the Series 2 is actually worse if you think about it:

- Tacky looking gauge cluster with individual holes for each warning lamp - WTF were they thinking

- Cloth seats vs. Velour seats

- Cloth trim vs. Velour trim

The only other interior differences in the Series 2 is:

- Different plastic on the dash, a bit more hard wearing as the S1 plastic was scratched easily

- Airbags

- Different "lights on" "key in" bing noise (yes strange that one but true, go try it!)

and the series 2 bonnet is ugly lol

I think...dark trim, airbag, ABS is the bomb, doesnt matter if its series 1 or 2

The stock type m front bar you see on most Series 2 is pretty ugly

Thats my opinion anyway
