i dun know if u wanna compare, but....

i just got my r33 gts-25t 4-5 weeks ago. $17k, the seller also covered all the costs like roadworthy, check for finances owing, and stamp duty!!!!

since then, i've spent another $1.5k on a stereo, dyno + major service, nismo clear indicators, strut brace. Rims to come soon...and maybe a 400R sideskirt with read bar and pods....

the only downside was that it was auto...however, i wanted an auto, i got a 2003 subaru impreza RS 2.5L manual (company car), and i hate the daily grind to work in peak hour traffic via clutch work....stopping and starting all the time...i'm getting old, need to preserve my leg joints! LOL...

i think $16k for the non turbo gts is a bit expensive. But that's just my thoughts. You should maybe allow another $1k to $2k up your sleeve for the extra's.

at the end of the day, it's your dosh, not mine!

youll probably find full comp for an N/A r33 is around 2500 ish and full comp for a gtst is 3000

thats avergage for a p-plater of course, should you wish to make a claim depending on insurance company you may not be able to as its illegal for a p plater in vic to drive this car (r33 gtst) as it is over the power to weight ratio (r33 gts is fine)

something to consider

the main insurance cost is cos its an import, the turbo bit is an extra $300-$500 usually

again thats average, could depend on application

theres a thread in the N/A area of this forum dedicated to insurance for non turbo vs turbo

Nice car, but the only advice i can make to you.

Test drive this N/A skyline and then just go test drive a Turbo Skyline. Once you drive a turbo, you don't want to drive anything else. Then if you still really want the N/A then go for it, its a nice car anywayz.

Insurance is going to be expensive whether you buy a N/A or Turbo Skyline. Because of the fact that it's a Skyline, and an import + p platers, its gonna kill you. But you mite as well buy a turbo skyline for that extra few grand of insurance!

But then again its your choice.

Gud luck mate.

yea i got quoted an insane ammount on full comp by just cars and 3rd party fire and theft sounds fine, just gotta drive carefully for a few years. But im drivin it tonight so ill make a decision then and if i dont like ill go the 200sx or a turbo skyline cos im checkin sum of them out on the weekend too............and insurance difference is only a few hundred bucks from and NA and a turbo skyline.

ummm.. why is it illegal for P plater to drive a r33 gtst in victoria? I'm currently a P plater driving a 96 r33 gtst with full comprehensive insurance.. the insurance company never told me anything about it being illegal... :slap:
