Troubles Selling My R32 Gtt


Recommended Posts

I tried to talk Mel out of the WRX idea.... they seem to attract the same if not more attention than our skylines. A work mate bought one when his little fella was born, and was defected the next day!

The forrester isnt a bad idea.... but two 'girls' at work drive them.

LS1 concumption around town is quoted at 14.5 - 15.5 around town, which is again RB territory I believe.

Looks like we may be taking an offer of $16,500 on Mel's car, and be done with it.

PS.. we got 5 hours straight last night!!!

5hrs straight is awesome (considering the weather)! Hope all is going well for your new family. Our little 3wkold Deontae was hot yesterday, no more than 3hrs during nights. *yawn*

Considered the WRX hatch, but boot space for pram, dog, 2kids belongings, etc..... not big enough, and the Forrester GT was a bit too expensive (same price as a Series2 Stagea).

*yawn, sleepy*

Stagea wins out, an import, Nissan, rb25det, awd, etc, great value & perfect for a 3to4-person family. Under 20k gets a great-nick unit, mine was under 18k.

I like the performance (got around 230-oddkw at engine) and capabilities of the Stagea, and the lines are sleek-as. Tasty, and a treat to own. Best car purchase Ive made, and for your 16500 sale its basically a car-exchange plus stampduty. =)

Im paying ~$900 for full comp insurance thru Shannons, I think replacement value for my Series1 Stagea is ~$22k (a few mods), plus Im paying around the same for the CBR thru Shannons, with that valued at $13k.

There are probably less than a dozen Stagea's in SA...... so you get a unique vehicle and authorities wouldnt have a clue as to what it is, whats standard etc. A true Stealth Wagon and great value for money; in my opinion.

If Mel wants to have a test drive, PM me Pauley.

Cheers BW.

Put the little fella in the laundry if you need a good nights sleep!

As far as selling the 32.... another withdrawn offer.

SPOTTERS FEE = $100 per $300 over $16,500 sale price!!

my wife had an r33 series 2 25gtst and we sold it for the same reason. cant fit child capsule properly . i wouldnt go for o taxi though so bought a wrx. mind you the turn a cot capsule does fit safely in the 32 gtr . my daughter loves dadys car but can seem funny cruising around with high five tunes playing . lol as far as the back goes get dady to put bub in the capsule. CONGRATS by the way. having kids is one of the best things to happen to a person these days other than owning a skyline.

I hate to break it to you pawley but last time i checked i am a girl!

how is the insurance of stagea?

I pay $1600 for my skyline in insurance (because i'm under 25), and they said they would do the same price on a 1996 stagea.

$1600 is total reamage (soz).

See the Stagea section, "Insurance" should be on page 1, if not then page 2.

Im only a couple of years older than you, but..... Im sure you could get it down a little to near $1100 maybe.

Good luck with the sale, & I hope bubs is going well.

Im 28, rating one / 65% no claim bonus.

Got quoted from between over $2000 to under $1000.

Im with Shannons, but JustCars was actually cheaper just didnt have paybymonth option.

With Shannons, the more oplicies you have (ie both your turb' cars) the cheaper it is. And a fixed price, modified, etc etc.

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
