About the Nissan Skyline GTS-25t (R33)

The R33 GTS-25t is the sensible entry into the Skyline world, and for years it was dismissed for exactly that reason. It uses the 247 hp RB25DET turbocharged inline-six driving the rear wheels only, which makes it lighter, simpler and considerably more entertaining sideways than the all-wheel-drive GT-R.

Investment Grade ยท Solid

The Nissan Skyline GTS-25t (R33) (1993-1998) sits in a solid mid-tier position, offering bulletproof reliability (82/10) that owners routinely daily-drive paired with low running costs (58/10 maintenance). The RWD platform attracts a steady enthusiast following, and parts remain widely available (78/10). Market-wise values are up a healthy +10.0% year-on-year while a rarity score of 37/100 means there is usually plenty of choice on the market โ€” accessible next to Grade A and S cars, with condition and mileage doing most of the pricing work.

Price estimates are based on market research and recent sales data. Values fluctuate based on condition, mileage, and market demand. Not financial advice.
