    BNR32 Keys

    in RB Series - R31, R32, R33, R34 (1986-2002)

    Posted

    What you are referring to is the service key.

    Named that way so when you took your car in for service, you could lock your valuables in the boot or glovebox. You would naturally flick the lever in the boot to disengage the remote next to the seat.

    All R32 GT-R’s came standard with 1 GT-R key, 1 Normal Nissan key and 1 Nissan Service key. One has a roundish head and the other square/rectangular.

    If they are original keys from the factory then they should have a 4 digit code. I always pay extra and get new keys cut off the code rather than a 25+ year old key. This eliminates snagging using an old key.

    Cost difference is about $20 but well worth it. 

    Cheers.. Bob.

    Hi John,

    I was only thinking of you the other day.... This poor old forum is like a ghost town now.

    Everybody is now on the R32 GT-R Facebook page.

    I'm a bit saddened to see you will be putting her up for sale but certainly understand where you are coming from.

    Mine's been unregistered for over 5 years and been in storage since last year. Out of sight, out of mind.

    Anyway, good luck with the sale but I suspect your best bet will be Carsales.

    Cheers....... Bob.

    Paying out a Loan on a car

    Back in the day, when I was taking car loans, the finance companies used the "Rule of 78" - google it. Basically it defined that the bulk of the interest was paid early in the loan - so if you paid off a 4 year loan in 2 years, you paid almost all of the interest you would have paid if it stayed over 4 years. It was a fairly expensive learning experience for a youngster on apprentice wages, who liked to change cars regularly.

    I have no idea if it's still used, but I suspect it's probably not legal these days (probably wasn't legal in the 70's either, but laws weren't so important then).

    You are 100% correct........ It has been outlawed for consumer loans but is still in effect for business or commercial leases etc.

    Ask the finance company for a pay out figure and they will tell you the exact number 

    Correct....... Unless you have the correct software calculators it's near impossible to get close to an accurate figure.

    The initial amount borrowed, the term, the interest rate, duration of the loan, whether there is a residual amount (if commercial lease) all play a part in the final payout figure.

    Some institutions may have a payout calculator on their websites but realistically, as the previous poster said, just ring them.

    Make sure you have all you loan information in front of you when you do for ID purposes.

    Cheers,

    Bob.

    Guys got a question about  the adm plate under the hood, could it be wrong as there is something up with my engine number.

    Block number matches the vehicle warranty and owner  identification copy. But on the aussie vin plate the engine number has a 3 instead of a 9. Rest of the numbers match

    Ok, please be a bit more specific......

    My Nissan Tag, block and my engine number in the owner's manual are all the same per attached photos.

    What does yours say?

    Untuned boost increase

    in RB Series - R31, R32, R33, R34 (1986-2002)

    Posted

    I'm pretty sure you can.........

    My mate has an R32 GT-R that was 100% stock including radio and exhaust.

    He added a boost controller and cat back exhaust and picked up approx 25awk.

    No tuning was done. I think the problem will start if you start changing injectors etc.

    Just ring any respectable tuning mob and they will tell you.

    Cheers...... Bob.

    Another ADM coming up for sale at Shannons Melbourne auction in November. Black, nice looking body, interior a little shabby but looks all original otherwise. There's been a lot of turnover recently, rising prices tempting many to cash in..

     

    This is quite possibly the same seller as previously as he had 5 all up.

    Maybe this one in November then early next year.

    The black is build number 98 and I too haven't seen it before.

    The silver car is #8 as the plate suggests. This car has done the rounds in our discussions before. Originally in Adelaide then went to Melbourne. Low mileage car but no documentation to validate at time of sale. Did it look like a sub 40,000km car? Shame I missed it. It must have arrived late.

    The red one next to it is a lovely car, previously owned by my mate, I know it well.

    Cheers,

    Bob.

    This is not that car.. Nissan now own that car. Same colour and very similar mileage but definitely not the same car.
    The maths is correct though, they have doubled in value over the last 3 years.
    I had a black one with similar mileage and it took me 7 months to sell. It too would be an $80k + car and sell in 7 days.
    Cheers... Bob.

    Thanks for the info. Figured that it was a bit of a coincidence that another ADM of the same colour was for private sale in the same postcode.

    Yeah.... I've spoken to the owner on a number of occasions and as he says in his ad, he's owned the car for 20 years.

    This is a lovely original car that has never been molested and then brought back to OEM. The owner is a mature chap that simply has no more need for the car. From all the conversations I've had with him (about 5 over the last 3 years) he seems like an outright gentlemen and that's exactly the type of person I like buying cars from.

    Anyone in the market should go and look at it.

    Cheers,

    Bob.

    Its got some km on it but looks well looked after

    I am pretty sure the current owner had it for sale during 2015-2016 for around $45k
