Question R33 Skyline GTS-T

Do you think that $16K is a good price on a 96 R33 GTS-T? It has some pretty good mods, a GT-R wing and the body is in great shape. Engine is super clean. I am about to buy it but don't wanna get ripped off.

I know 2, 1 of them with a R34 and another with a R32. Both GT-R's.

And no, a car that's worth 9k in Japan is not worth importing for over double the price. Sorry.

its not worth the price, but who cares, no one has one and it would be awesome to say that you drive a skyline, just avoid telling em which one you drive.

as for dragoons statement, i stand corrected..

and cdmx's statement... EXACTLY!! lol

a skyline in the us, despite it not being a gtr, will definitely turn heads one way or another...

Well it already has an HKS intake, blitz blow off valve, blitz nur spec exhaust, decat, 17's, rear strut bar and cdmx if you were sayin I am not that old I am 23 so that is not really young. But i might bring it back to the states it just depends on where the military takes me. If i can get to Japan I will sell if before I leave England. But I am gonna try to get it, if I do I will be sure to post pics. And i will keep you informed.

Can't you just buy a gtr engine and slap it in there later? I don't know if you can do that, but you can buy a gtr front end cut for $6k down in miami.
