U left out how many K's on the clock and also manual or tiptronic.

Assuming its manual with average K's anywhere from 25-28K. Its a tough and sad market out there nowadays..plenty of GTTs for the picking...buyers market. You either need to be very patient and wait for the right buyer or sell at a loss if you are desperate.

Yeah the market is a bit low lately,

anyway its got 52,000kms on the clock and its a 5 speed manual.

Got a mate whos willing to pay $30,000 for it but yet again hes one of those "if you can hold onto it for another few weeks until i can get a job" blokes. :P

But yeah im more than happy to hang onto it until the right price comes along.

If only i could have a GTt and a GTR, ah life would be sweet. :nyaanyaa:

I got one a few months ago myself. Private sale. Manual, 80000ks, turbo coupe totally standard other than rims. Paid $18500. I think it was a good price for the quality of the car. I saw a lot of crappier ones for a lot more too.

Man thats a great deal. I thought anywhere b/w 22-28k would be the price range. i bought mine for 24k, 67000k, manual, stock with air filter

Unfortunately, you'll notice that most of the blokes who said 25-30-35k drive a gtt. That's just the way things are.

3 years ago, I got my sII r33 gtst for 25k imported from japan. As usual,prices got smashed.

Now, on carsales, there are plenty of gtt's for 20k flat-low 20s. You might be lucky to get 25+, but you might have to wait a long time.

Most of the buyers will be young blokes around the age of 20. They'd probably pick a cheaper one over one in better condition, because that's all they can afford.

No offence, but i think reasons of why it's $18500

1. You got it from a close friend?

2. Previous owner needs money to pay off debts?

3. Previous owner owns Ferraris and just CBF wasting his precious time waiting for someone with a higher offer

4. Car travelled double the kms but has been wind back.

5. You sure there's an engine in the car?

Although R33 Series 2 are getting old, but some of them are still being sold at $15-18k.

  • 1 month later...

i just bought a near stock (tein suspension) manual r34gtt '98 for $26000+OR but its in really good condition and thats dealership pricing. saw heaps of private sale cars in low $20k's some rough ones for less but I would probably advertise for mid-high $20's and hope you find someone who is willing to fork out a bit more for the pre-done up car. they are out there... all depends how quickly you want to get rid of it. good luck and I'm sure the second you sit behind the wheel of your new GTR youll forget you even owned a gtt :blink:

Advertising it above 30k you might as well not bother advertising it at all.... to get that kind of money you will be waiting a lifetime and never sell it. Over 30k ppl can get 33 gtr's and plenty of other brand new cars... but believe it will sell for that kind of money if you want.... :domokun:

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • 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.
