Wow, R33s on Facebook groups are selling like hot cakes.

A R33 S1, basic built motor, simple parts listed up for $18k and sold within an hour.

Can't imagine what my dim sum special R33 S2 would sell for.

I'm a bit motivated now and might considering cutting out the rust in the poorly rolled guards and doing a proper open door respray.

I was thinking that the other day, not for me/the Silvia (though those are going north fast too, my car is too far gone though).

Now might be the time you can sell out and get your 335.

At this rate might as well aim for a M3 F80 LCI lol

This ISO bullshit has a lot to answer for!!  The price of EVERYTHING has gone up.  Crazy how expensive R33 and R34's have become the last few months!  Used motorbikes have gone through the roof too.  Everyone is spending more time at home on the couch bored shitless buying crap they can't even use....

Good if you're selling anything, not so good for buyers...

@Dose Pipe Sutututu your car is now a highly valuable collectors item.

So is yours @Shoota_77!!!

Just crazy, imagine one day this happens and someone just walks up and goes to me "I'll trade you my low km F80 LCI M3 for your unfinished R33"

Oh boy haha

Mate you need to get over this BMW thing!  I can't stand the bloody things!  I'd rather the Skyline all day!  Yeah they're expensive to own but nothing compared to a BMW that has conveniently just run out of warranty!  There is pretty much not one BMW I would choose over a Skyline (dollar for dollar).  A $100K Skyline makes a $100K BMW cry in shame! :)   As a track car they're possibly able to be lived with but I just find them so hard to find enjoyable as a road car.  They handle like a junkies eyeballs after a 3 day dry spell...

It won't have anything to do with Covid. Prices have been on the rise for the last couple of years. 

 

Having just pulled the Skyline off the road to go full race car - I try not to pay any attention to what clean 34's are selling for ?

Yeah they've been rising steadily but 100% Covid has had an effect on pricing.  I've been keeping a pretty close eye on R34 coupes for the last 6 months dreaming that I'd get one as a daily and I've noticed that they've jumped massively the last 5-6 months.  Good luck finding a turbo R34 Coupe under $25K now.  Even non turbos are gone from the market that were there earlier in the year.

Just stupid, a few years ago you could get these for sub $10k (auto ones)

Last car is the best though, all speculative power:

    • See my post here If you put the Haltech in, you won't have to worry about any of that. And, in case you're worrying about my lack of credentials in doing your exact swap, I put a Neo in an R32. There has never been a stock boost solenoid near my car and the Neo's ECU has never cared. Nor should it, because it is electronically impossible for it to care.
    • That's 100% wrong. Did you wire in the boost sensor? If you did not, then that is 101% your answer. Neo ECUs do suck a bit.
    • Hello, I'm trying to make this thread basically the thread with all the answers to common questions regarding specifically the RB20 DE NEO + T engine, that comes in the R34. Answers will and only should be provided by those who have done this conversion or actually have some relevant real life experience please. Please feel free to ask questions in the comments if you have any so other members can answer. I feel like this thread is really needed, especially with more Americans buying (unknowingly going to regret it too) rb20 neo r34s. My first question being - What do you guys use for tuning? I have purchased a haltech elite 2500 Plug and play kit for the rb25det NEO because the ecu plug is the same, but I am unsure if any of the pins would need to be repined to match. Second question that I see asked very often - After this conversion, did you install the boost solenoid/ actuator? I see many people doing a + T setup on their rb20 NEOs while running stock RB25DET NEO ECUs with no tune. I am wondering how they are going about doing that and consistently abusing the car because many of these people have had these untuned setups running for a very long time. That was my original plan, but my engine cuts out at 5 psi of boost using the stock ecu with no tune and no boost solenoid/actuator.
    • interesting. ive read and heard otherwise over the past year. ive been doing this +t conversion on a rb20 neo using all oem rb25det neo parts including the ECU, and im having engine cut out issues when I hit around 5 psi of boost. Everywhere/everyone ive asked has told me its because I never wired in a boost solenoid/actuator to the ecu, so the ecu isn't getting the right signal once it hits 5 psi of boost, causing the engine to get shut off.
