Hey,

I've been looking for a R33 and found one in Canberra that seems OK. Its a 96 GTST with 63 000kms, alarm, airpod, exhaust, & in exc. condition. The only negative is it seems a bit expensive-$22 800 w/ 12mnths rego, and after trading in my car-93 Laser w/190 000kms. Any ideas whether this is a resonable price from a dealer? I was thinking that if I looked in Sydney/Melb I could get the same deal for around $20 000.

Here's the link:

Any opinions appreciated!

Cheers.

I suggest you look much harder.. You can generally pick them up for about 17k-19k.. So i suggest you look n look, till you find something cheaper.. OR bargain wit him.. go cash in hand.. n bring the price down to 19k or something..

Look in forsales section n see how much they genrally go for..

canberra ones will generally be a little more than sydney, melbourne and brisbane due to not as many being around (well some would say) if you want cheaper go to sydney but S2's are still worth a bit more maybe not that much i would think maybe 19 - 21ish

Cheers for your thoughts guys. I was pretty close to a deposit on Monday, but now thinking I'll wait a bit and see if the dealer will budge on price. I had another look at the car, and the windscreen seals are peeling back, and the rear wheels have a bit of outside wear (perhaps they are rotated from the front and it needs an alignment?), so I think I'd prefer the dealer to fix them in the price--I'd rather not buy a S2 and have to pay for other stuff before I think about wheels etc. Otherwise, I'm going to Melbourne next weekend so I'll have a look there.

    • If that's the wiring from the factory, I'd be inspecting the loom everywhere.   Any signs of that anywhere else, and seriously, I'd get rid of the car ASAP before the electrical gremlins make it worthless, or it goes up in flames on its own. That is scary how that insulation is failing!
    • I should note too as I have all 4 wheel speed inputs to the emtron I now have the emtron controlling the attessa solenoid for 4wd/traction and launch control strategies. 
    • It works quite well with the adjustibility within each of the programs of the turbolamik. Essentially p1 is drive and lockup comes on like a normal driver.  But in program 7 I have customised it to not request the lockup clutch to engage until something like 6500/7 when slip was the lowest. 
    • Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks! 
    • It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers
