Brett... if your after a skyline look around... dont just jump at any car you think looks good.. I rather something that is closer to stock form so if you want to do mods you can do them all yourself... 32k is abit too much for a 95 model R33gtr.. does not matter how much money the person has spent... For that type of money i would be looking into house's at lest you can get $$$ back with them But yeah just look around even if you have to look interstate or get one imported.. hell guy i know got the car he was after 8 months later and is loving it we looked at alot of POS cars in the time and he was about to give up and yeah found what he was after and yeah Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Yeah, I have been looking for a while. I want one in QLD, so I dont have to pay transport costs, and then worry whether or not it will get an RWC..

Did you see the link to the 32? Stay away from it? I dont want one thats been imported.. You dont know whether theyre about to break down or what life they have had. I want one that has been in Australia for at least 2 years.

yeah ive always been wary of importing cars its really best to be able to drive them here and get them looked at here the 32 looks lik a half decent buy, if everything he says is in the car altho the motor does look very clean like it has been out recently its also got an Autostyle sticker on it so it may have been imported by them and they usually thoroughly check cars b4 bringin them in and usually bring in modified versions also it doesnt seem to say what computer its running i cant see an AFM so its not a power fc unless the afm is in the cooler piping id want to get it thoroughly checked b4 buying it tho remember it is 16years old, nearly as old as vls i think 33gtrs are a better buy, u can usually get people down on price on them and they seem to hold value better than 32gtrs just make sure u get the 1 u absolutly want!!

Yeah.. I want one with aircon, and 32 doesnt have that. Even though he says he has the parts and it can easily be fitted again, it doesnt look like it. He sent me pictures of the interior and its neat, except where the aircon and stereo is, there are 3 guages. The 33 is more of a daily driven street car I guess, and nothing is stopping me putting on some hks 25/30's when I get the car... It has got the fuel setup for them too. Think I might just head in that direction Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

haha , listen to him, yes i drive an n/a vl , but what i was saying if i had 32k i wouldnt waste it on a piece of shyt r33, dont knock one til i drive 1 ?? i have driven a few of them, and would rather a VLT anyday. for 20k you could have everything a r33 has and would be better. you gonna spend that much on a car, you got *****in rocks in your head. put the money to better use. stock market or a house.

so u have driven a 33gtr and you would prefer a vlt...... care to explain your reasons behind that
0 likes
That is the biggest load of crap i have seen... you have driven them... right... when you get your hand off it let us all know... get back to playing gran turismo and using your money cheats to buy all the mods for your GTR.... So you rather do up a VLT which in fact will loose you more money then what a import would... please explain...
0 likes
Exactly right.. God im not saying VLT's are junka's. Sure, maybe you can have a lot of the parts from a GTR for that amount of money, but I bet the GTR wins in the end.. AWD, All wheel steer, and not to mention their handling. And if you beg to differ, can you please explain why the were always winning at bathurst? As Zan said, go back to gran turismo. Also, I am looking at this gts-t.. He needs to sell it before the financial year, is prepared to make a deal in my favour, and told me to throw him and offer. Im thinking about $23, 000. He also has no problems with an RACQ check, and is getting an RWC.

thats not too bad... better then alot i have seen in melb... has a far bit of work done to it... the lights are not too bad but yeah i like the stock ones more... yeah i can understand about not getting one from another state... umm if get one imported there is alot of iffy ones hanging around but some of the big import places do have people over there to look after the cars.. Since owning my 300 i have only just done over 5,000kms in a year LOL and it does get driven every single day just two and from work. Got cooler mufflers etc sitting here to fit but yeah cbfed lol
