Here's a tip... If you dont like it, dont buy it :(

He should figure that out soon enough.

i like it but aint paying taht much 4 it its been 4sale over 3 months now still doesnt want to budge

if its not worth it, then move on.

it may not be worth that much to you, but it might be to someone else

yeah if some poor bastard pays that much thinking it has the mod that he claims he'll feel f**ked over besides thommo the questoin is who thinks its really worth that much

Seriously, who gives a shit?

If you dont like it, or think its overpriced, dont buy it and dont post on here bitching about it!

Chances are the owner has been told a bunch of garbage about what mods the car apparently has when he imported it, and thus hes listing all the same apparent mods now that hes selling it.

ie. I wasnt aware that HKS made alternators >_<

It's his car, he can ask what he wants for it.

If someone wants it badly enough, they'll pay the asking price.

You can pick up a Type M for under $10,000 ...but when you add the cost of the kit parts, suspension bits, mags, stereo, re-spray and all the other things that have been done (or said to have been done) to the vehicle, it's not a totally outrageous asking price, however, the opening line of:

This is a great price for a head turner that needs no work!!!
is a bit of a stretch.... it obviously needs some work.

It mentions that there's damage to the paintwork, the wing has been removed which means the bootlid has holes in it (unless it was stuck on with velcro) and would need repairing or replacing and a respray, so those sorts of things need to be taken into account, and can be used as bargaining chips to try and get the price down a bit.

As everyone else has said, if you don't want it, keep looking.

If you want it, let the buyer know what you're willing to pay, (reminding them that X,Y & Z needs to be done to the vehicle before you'd be happy to pay X amount) and you can be first in line if/when the price drops low enough.

the opening line of: "needs no work" is a bit of a stretch.... it obviously needs some work.

If he's marketing the car towards people who want a vehicle that has scratches and holes in it, then the car's perfect and needs no work.

Obviously this guys has spent a bit on this car such as the paint work, and gtr parts.

The paint job dosent seem to looks like one of those dodgy jobs.

i think he might be exaggerating on the work that has being done , i donno maybe grab more interests on the car but he shouldnt add parts he doosent have on carsales stating he has it if you done the work show the receipts .

I think the car is worth that much money.

Custom paint

body kit

plenty of good mods

rebuilt engine

etc etc...

People expect too much these days.

Fair enough you can get type m r32s for $10k, but it would be a piece of shit.

Even a $12k one will need some work

how do u kknow its got a rebuilt engine, no receipts to prove it plus just pistons isnt what id class as a rebuild...

if hes bullshitted that much already as u have said, and has listed parts that he doesnt have, that would be enough to turn me away for good

ben...

if u look hard enough u can find a rough GTR for that price.....

or a R33 GTS25t with same mods. Overpriced imo......

17800 for a local GTR hahah yeh and then add a another couple of grand fixing it up problems should of bought the clean one that has being maintained for 20.

I surly wouldnt touch it till i do some intensive inspection on the car.

I have personally seen people purchasing cheap R32 Gtr overseas and locally and bascially theres problems after problems a few of them engine needed to be rebuild, dont get me wrong i love gtrs they are very well build but if the pervious owners didnt treat and maintain them probabaly then theres gonna be big problems.

I seen really cheap ones that go for sale in Japan, they seem like have just being molested its shocking some of the conditions they are in, but without saying im seen very clean nice looking ones that looks like it just came out of the factory and are always more expensive.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
