Hi Guy's,

 

I know a lot of you on here luuuuurve the Skyline, so I wonder if you could help me.

 

I've got a customer who wants to sell:-

 

R33 GT-R. 'M' reg, black, 85,000 miles, 18"alloys, dustbin for an exhaust! Not a mark on the bodywork as far as I can see and the interior is mint apart from a 'scruffy' hand-brake gator.

 

It's a re-posession (my customer provide loans for cars, and if you don't pay them, you lose your car.Simple) My customer thinks he'll get a 'certain' price for it.

 

How much (ballpark) do you reckon it's worth? and when you tell me I'll tell you what my customer reckons it's worth! ;) Might be VERY interesting for some of you on here! :hyper:

If it`s a GT-s then 6k is about right, bugger!

LOL knew it was too good to be true! ;)

 

BOB is that you mate? As in Safe & Sound Bob who does a cracking impression of the guy...who's name has slipped away from my grey matter...who starred with Roger Rabbit??? LMFAO :)

 

If so, good to see you around mate. ;)

If it's an auto it's eiother had a gearbox swap (I doubt very much) or it's a GTSt, a GTS a GXE or something else. There are some very easy ways to tell.

 

The R33 GTS has large side repeaters flush with the front wings the GT-R has smaller ones that protrude. Alsio the GTR is wider (flared arches etc.). Lifting the bonnet: the GT-R has an RB26 engione, the others can have anything from an RB16 (I kid you not) to an RB25. Also, unless it's had a single turbo concversion the GTR is the only one with twins.

 

Whatever you do, before you buy it make sure you get it checked by BIMTA. The GTR Owners Club is an afffiliated member of BIMTA and can help also.

Timmski me old muppet, indeed tis i, pop up here now and again just to see whats happening, spend most of my time on GTR.co.uk now or Skylineowners. Give us a shout if you`re ever over Chester way. You still hiding in darkest Wales?

 

Bob

Hiya Bobski mate, yeah still on Anglesey. Hope you're well bud.

 

Kept seeing the BOB posting and never clicked that it could be you.

 

So you sold the Z then and got a Skylark?

Yep, GTR33 V-spec, had it 6 months now just collecting a load of bits ready to hand over to the great Ginger one to do his magic.

 

Bob

Nice one mate, when I get back in the money will be requesting your services for a Toad for the MR-2 mate. Oh and while your here, whenever, you can diagnose my problem with my Alpine head unit cutting out everytime I depress the clutch! LOL :) ;)

Should have bought an Auto !! i`m going now!

 

 

Bob

Was it something I said mate? :)

Must be pulling a wire somewhere, if it has the active sub system and not wired properly you can get all sorts of problems. Nip over one day i`ll have a look.
