With the new laws coming in I suspect the market will fall out of the skylines in QLD.

this is a good point actually

it's amazing the amount of import yards that have opened up trying to get a piece of the action, even in coorparoo there's an old caryard that got revamped and now has skylines ahoy in it

all these crappy little businesses thought they had a goldmine, now it's about to go splat

i only hope that this doesn't make skylines a ton harder to buy in future, say if someone wanted to buy say a 32 for fun =P

You see R32 GTRs trying to sell for 18,500 and not selling... So yeah... luck :)

I was going to sell mine and get a R32 GTR... buy as it appears the efforts as most definately pointless.... So I shall keep my car and work on it :)

You could always try boostcruising (er...), performanceforums.org (I think... google performance forums with pages from australia only selected) and you could try nissansilvia.com, the trading post... I don't know anywhere else off the top of my head.

Good luck, you've got I want (R32 with R33 engine) but alas, can't get rid of mine :D

yeah good luck - the market has changed dramatically. I'm trying to sell my R33 GTR now. Makes it hard not many people want to pay 20 for a car that's 17 years old.

Now days its cheaper to buy a car here in oz than it is to import which sucks.

thanks for the input, ive chucked it on trading post and boostcruising as well as car sales now so here's hoping. I'm negtoiable but i do think it's a fair price if stock 32's go for around the high teens. I'm sure somone out there can see the value in my mods. If u think otherwise feel free to let me kno

rims, power fc + tune, z32's, brakes, clutch, rotars, ENGINE and alarm weren't cheap so whatever Einstein, you let me know. My numbers there if u wanna come round for a chat

Yeah good luck on the sale. Skylines are near impossible to get rid of atm. And you have to remember mods are worth nothing on a cars resale. I spent close on the value of your 32 on Mods on my 33 GTR, quality mods too fixing all the GTR weaknesses, ie; suspension, brakes, cooling, oil supply issues etc. . . . plus some HP mods and I still ended up losing $15K on the original cost of importing the thing stock when I sold it! Not even including the cost of modding it aswell! So yeah, chances are you will have to bite the bullet and loose the money if you want to move it, or as said earlier own it for a long long time and get your $$s worth.

Keep it, that is what I have decided to do. Just did the suspension and brakes (engie rebuild, computer zort already done) now the intercooler and then I will just drive it.

Might as well enjoy my moniesworth instead of flogging it off for something that I don't really need anyway...

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
