I don't know. It sort of just dropped off. Probably in storage lol

Probably or it has been bastardised too much to the point it isn't recognisable.

It's good to understand that we can only have a conversation like this because all GTRs up to BNR34s are appreciating right now (as auctions are a driving force).

This particular thread would have been useless a year ago.

Canada appears to be after the BCNR33s at present.

Whilst auction results don't reveal this, SAU Member "roy8532" is having to buy parts for the Canuks in sizeable quantities.

Talking of this GTR, I wonder what happened to one that Autostyle used to own?

Its still alive. Now up in QLD.

I owned it for a while & only just sold it a few weeks ago.

the top secret r33 gtr actually got sent to the UK after its stint in Japan...

this is the one which did the famous 330km/h Wangan run....

it's since been refreshed with further headwork & different turbo setup...

the one in Australia, well - it was passed off as the famous version but it was not. the real top secret gtr has never been in Aus

Guys looking for someone stock or easy enough to revert back to stock, prices seem reasonable at the moment and can't see them increasing in price anytime soon for r33, would definitely not pay more than it's worth. 

 

Anyone have any info on this GTR r33 in Vic ? https://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Nissan-Skyline-1995/SSE-AD-3735120

 

or these two in QLD?

Lol. The "worth" as you say will be dictated by the masses.

As long as the 32 and 34 increase, the 33 will also increase. Will very likely be no where near that of the 34 but they will go up if the rest of the market increases

That car has a Nismo cluster, meaning it almost certainly doesn't have the 51,000km shown. Glad to be proven wrong, however I wouldn't pay near 30k for that particular car.

It's all relative to availability. As time goes on and the number of good clean cars decreases, the price will go up. Supply and demand. Fact of life.

Realisically how much can they appreciate supply and demands one thing, is everyone going to have to pay 100k+ for a GTR? bs. If prices rise to much who the hell will buy them, when you can get a brand new WRX's,clubsports ect.

Not me but someone hell bent on owning a gtr and just has to have it, probably will. Prices have already started going up, they're not going to start coming down because we don't like it. LOL.

I agree with Hadouken.

I bought my 33 GTR in nov 2014 for 20k. Back then there weren't many advertised at 35k+....those that were usually had rebuilds with serious money spent .
There were definitely more advertised from 18-24k mark. Now those cars would probably be advertised anywhere from 24 to 30 grand I believe.

Agreed with above - they'll never be as expensive as 32's & 34's - I bought mine at $24k - stock Vspec example earlier this year. But nothing drives like a GTR - if I move it on in 5 years for $35k I'll be even on rego, insurance, servicing & consumables - cheap for the same drive train as the others

    • Just don't use ChatGPT or any other artificial stupidity for the equivalent of googling. Their demonstrated inability to discriminate reality from hallucination should be enough to make them totally untrusted. LLMs don't know anything and cannot think to even the smallest extent. They are just predictors of the next word, and that should never be confused with capability.
    • I think, given the usage model described in the OP, I'd never ever experience the wonders of the 400kW upgrade. What I really need is boost from 2000rpm and probably no more than 260-270rwkW. But I suspect that the highflow is not actually the turbo for that purpose, so I may in fact need to get a G25 or 30 or something right sized and very spooly. We shall see after it is tuned. I've had to back the boost and boost ramp off to stop the thing from pinging since the highflow went on, so I've been almost living the NA life for 9 months now! Injectors are recently in hand. AFM is in hand. Dyno is fixed. Just need to clear a queue of f**king Supras out of the way (and probably fit my new gearbox). So....some time this year? Lol.
    • For what I gather is a Sunday/summer car....braided is fine. You're not going to be left without a vehicle and you have plenty of time for inspection/maintenance. Oof. I wouldn't use them that way. They can probably handle the temperature** but the internal corrugations means that their flow characteristics are a bit shit. Lots of extra friction and pressure loss. Makes them flow like the next pipe size down. ** They are stainless, and the stainless can usually be at least something like 304L, which is pretty good at higher temperatures (unlike 316L, which I would use for a wrt/corrosive environment, but not a particularly hot environment). But the welding needs to be top notch. And even then, because you usually need at least one cone-seat end on them (because you can twist the hose and do up both ends at the same time unless one of them is a union) they can be prone to coming loose with heat cycles.
    • I don't have the OEM oil feed lines though and the turbo-wraparound line is torn, only has water. My plan is to get replacements for these and just connect a braided line to there. And make sure it's leak free. Hoses like these are also sometimes used to connect external wastegates, so for an EGR I think you're good using them.
    • Alright I understand. The most likely case is probably gonna be that I just keep the OEM unit in the car as long as it works.
