so ill decide when i get back... probably not something perforamnce, ive almost had enough... a 4WD maybe? have to wait n see

Hmmm sounds like what i did....almost got a 4WD too :-)

But now i really miss my car.... wasnt anything overly fast (14.0sec), but was fun to drive and looked ok as well. So im on the hunt soon for a new car :-)

BTW Sorry this is off topic

Haha Jash - my parents tried to get me to appreciate HSV's as theyve always owned them - obviously their evil brainwashing didnt work on me haha

Back to the topic: All cars depreciate - they arent the best investment, but we all dont want to lose our money too quickly either. JimiH the fact that your R32 is quite unique to look at - u have working in your favour :P

most of the SAU vic members seem to be wanting an R32 GTR over the coming 12-18 months.. so if that is any indication get ready for an onslaught of people wanting R32 GTRs :) hell, i am even considering one next year (although a 92 or something)

i think R32GTR's will hold around high-20's low 30k's no matter how the import laws changes things.

I think we'll just wait and see. ATM I just can't justify $25K for a 15 YO R32 GTR. Yeah it's a dream car but it's still 15 YO.

As far as HSV's go a guy at work is looking at a GTS300 thingy second hand. There $93 K new and $53 a year old with 20K on the clock and 3 year warranty !

Last time I complain about depreciation.

The rule looks like its gonna change so you may be buying $15000

wreckers. R32s will become classic very fast as thay ere the only

true Godzilla.

The 300kw Commonwhores are only making 248rwhp here and

the 255kws are making 240rwhp so something fishys going on

the best 300kw went 317 with NOS- Heavy Slow Vehicals-

We got an R33GTS up to 255rwhp today @12psi, Per4manz intercooler,full exhaust,and a power up bleed valve. HSV Predator.

i might just step out of this one...every thing you've written is just a bunch of letters to me. i've read it and read it and i just don' t understand it :confused:

The Aussie distributed ones are easy to tell agreed, the inner circle of the inboard tail light does have the orange indicator in it, I know I own one and love the beast. In a town full of HSV's haven't found anyone willing to have there nose rubbed in the dirt yet.

PS Does anyone know where I can get hold of a original D/S floor matt, the whole car is dead stock bar the floor matt and I want to keep it that way.

Please let me know you guy out there in Skyline land

    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
    • Bloody apprentices! 🙄
    • Not sure yet.  Was considering speedtek because it was rated to 800hp, but when I did some research about him I don't think I will go for that🤣 So maybe giken gear set, but I'm afraid it won't be strong enough🙄
