Hey guys,

Have an auto N/A R33, it's in pretty good condition. Regualrly serviced etc. It's done about 90000kms and im thinking of selling it. It has some cosmetic mods like 17" and stuff, don't it factors much in selling price tho. What do you think I can get for it? Its fully P-plate legal, if thats a factor. I live in melb(hence this is in the vic thread), and was wondering if theres such a thing as "local price".

+1 to be lucky to get 10k if it's series 2.

I sold my manual NA R33 series 2 with 85,000km 8 months ago for 12.7k.

EDIT: Actually, ignore the series 2 bits, I saw the info under your name, it's a 1993 GTS, so it's series 1. So you'd be aiming at 7-8k.... Even though the K's are low.

fark u got good money 12.7k for a n/a i rkn you'd be lucky to pull 7-8k regardless since you can get turbos for 8k upwards .. i know they are illegal but comeon as if youd pay the same money for half the car.

Yeah, I got lucky lol. Within 2 weeks of putting the car up, this guy came and checked the car, had a few mates with him, checked the engine bay, poked a few things here and there, spent a couple of mins looking at the pod and he just decided to buy it lol. He didn't even take it for a test drive, but I offered :)

Also, he didn't even try to bargain LOL

But in all fairness, it was in an awesome condition haha

I got mine about a year or 2 ago for 11500, manual. Was the best one on carsales at the time and has been good to me.

I would be trying to get around the same price when I sell it, some P plater should snatch it up.

Yeah, I reckon if it's genuinely nice and neat, you shouldn't have a problem selling it at all.

I've realised that a lot of kids these days spends a fair bit of money on their first car, whether it's their parents or their own money lol.

It just seems like 10-12k for a first car is nothing

mrs just got a auto sII turbo for 8k with logbooks.. so you will be very lucky to even get close champ..

You've gotta understand that NA's have held their prices pretty well, due to the turbo law.

Just because they can buy a turbo for the same price doesn't they will/can.

I could have easily bought a turbo for my first car, but my parents wouldn't let me lol, so I imported an NA 33 for about 13k on the road, despite the money spent, I was totally happy with the car :bunny:

Yeh thats true, well the way I see it a P plater will look at my car, its clean, goes well, manual, has 4.5k sound system (previous owner), cat back exhaust, some alright rims i guess 17", body kit and will be like zomg mummy i want that one :bunny:

Yup, expect to have many little kiddies calling you up to question about your car lol.

As I realised when I was selling my car, most of them are just talks.

    • Not yet, might end up being easter now, didn't end up getting time off over xmas.    I've been seeing some concerning things online now too. Lots of people with issues, could all be setup issues but the consequences in some cases are significant.    All of the below are other peoples stories, not mine and are unverified.  Seen 2 x broken adapter ring that destroyed the gearbox as it failed.   They still do seem to have twin plate rattle despite claims of silent. Several issues with it not holding power but some evidence of constant pressure on plate. Setup issues with bite point.   Lot of people after 2-4 weeks swapping back to another brand.    On the positive side, I've seen a barra put down near 1000hp at the wheels and its held it.  Also everyone seems to confirm the pedal is light.    Does have me a little cautious and looking at ATS carbon clutches again .......        
    • I'm late to the party on this one but good to see common sense has prevailed and the turbo kit is coming. 
    • She's looking good Greg. Colour suits it perfectly 👍
    • I had a look at the FAB9 EFR kit, around $8500 AU before delivery, so add in shipping, installation, consumables and tuning, I believe the price difference would be negligible  And whilst I am paying top dollar at MX5 Mania, if I have any issues with the kit they are local for support,  and from my experience, will happily go out of their way to help, hell, I've purchased parts from them and asked "how do I install or remove parts" and they have fitted a few of them for free, this means more to me than saving a few thousand dollars And yes, 99% of the time I just plod around in the car, that may change once I start hearing turbo whooshy noises, but, as I have 3 family members is the constabulary, even when I'm up it, it is only up to the speed limit, or occasionally, but rarely, overtaking on the Hwy (I just plod in the left lane typically and enjoy the drive) Plus the kids would never let it go if I got booked speeding, Jackie is constantly getting critiqued by the kids about her driving, which I think is hilarious, and tell them that she is "bringing shame to our family", so heaven forbid if I ever got done speeding, after all my mouthing off about her driving, I would never live it down, and it would be another thing she would bring up any chance she got Like the time I got drunk about 15 years ago and fell out of a cab, which gets brought up at least a few times every year since it happened Good times
