So the r33/34 would be in the $50-60 range.

To counterpoint, how much would Lexus charge for a Soarer (!!!)

T.

As a rough comparison, Nissan NZ were selling brand new r34 GTT's for $65K [in nz dollars]. So your very close with those figures i'd imagine... *goes and does conversion*

65,000 NZD New Zealand Dollars = 60,438 AUD Australia Dollars!

Yep, spot on :P

Silver Arrow "who cares about Performance forums"....

Yah right mate..... I think you'll find a FEW more gurus on there.... and alot of guys who own 7,8,9 second cars who know what there talking about.

Dont get me wrong love Skylines Australia, I had a R33 till recently... but credit must be given where its due....

Take note Goverment and Nissan.

I would not swap my R33 for anything Holden or Ford have on there show room floor, unless I could sell it to buy a GTR.

:P Bahah ur a funny one... I got a r33 gts-t my self and i would die to have a XR6 Turbo Blueprint. Its quicker/faster than my car and it has more agressive looks.. If i can trade in for a XR6 Turbo and $20k on top, i would do it any day!

trade in the slow R33 gts-t for another slow car sounds like a plan to me.

You have a family right?

The only problem with the XR6 turbo is they don't offer mission brown as a paint job with black vinyl roof. And they get a good beating by 1978 volvo wagons in drag races.:D

LOL, nah im not a family man... im only 18, a XR6T does between 14.1 & 14.3 and i dont think thats slow... for $3,000 u can get a Uni chip installed and gets ur 220kw on the wheels, and gets the XR6T to do low 13's... Its a ****en awsome car, and their selling like hot pan cakes. and im sure it would beat rev210 in a race...

    • Hey @Butters, did you end up getting this clutch in ? I have just ordered to a uniclutch track to go in my getrag 6 speed that’s in my BNR 32     
    • I know you don't want to hear this comment, but I can't not say it.  I just can't see 200kw being worth the time and effort. Its like guys with NA cars, putting in headers/exhaust/tune for a massive 20% jump in power. Great, the slow car is still slow and you're down $10,000.  My vote is leave it NA or price in a gearbox upgrade and shoot for at least 300KW, preferably 350KW+.  Now you have a NC that will try to kill you from time to time and will be exciting to drive
    • Ah yep. The main message I want to pass on is, try not to get scared of ghosts when thinking about knock/knock detection.  What I mean is, healthy engines make noise. Knock is also noise. Your knock sensor and ECU combo are trying to determine bad noise from good noise based on how loud the noise is. The factory knock sensors and ECU are not good at doing this.  Modern ECU's are pretty decent at it, however I'd still say that you would want to verify that if your ECU says it's knock, that you actually listen to it and confirm that it is correct.  Are you familiar with the plex knock monitor?  https://www.plex-tuning.com/products/plex-knock-monitor-v3/ I expect you're the type of person that would be very keen to play with something like this. It is great knock detection and you can pop some headphones on and listen to what's going on.  Knock that you've deliberately induced in low load low RPM areas is not really putting anything at risk and is a great tuning/learning/verification tool.  I just thought this was worth mentioning based on the way you were talking about setting up a base map and the Haltech base map settings. There are better ways to spend your time then chasing ghosts and worrying about detonation in scenarios that it is crazy unlikely to encounter it.  I was also wondering, what ECU are you planning to get? Will it be long til you pick it up?
    • This came quicker than I thought. It ain't even 2025 yet.
    • I somehow quoted my post instead of editing it. I regret nothing.
