Wow!!

wouldnt have thought 6 figures.....

I know there was one at an auction few months back - had around 50k on the clock and was around 50k - I think it actually got passed in!

I still dont belive these cars will get much more value as opposed to the 70's muscle cars.

it will go big, mainly because of Peter's recent death. apart from the cool history aspect it's a pretty average car though >_<

give me the plastic pig group A walkinshaw any day thanks. :(

i spoke to a guy who paid $150,000 for a walky with only 1200kms on the clock.

these aussie muscle cars values are getting a bit out of hand now.....

dont even have to be muscle these days

even a stock 250 xw 3 on the tree in average condition is pulling over 5 k these days

pity it can NOT be a genuine original as delivered by GMH as stated or it would NOT have the infamous polariser on it

Brock added them after they left GMH

you should re-read the section "PRESENTS AS IT DID ON DELIVERY IN 1987 FROM HDT. "

I'm gonna win lotto, buy it and enter it in the burnout comp at summernats just to piss off the purists. :P

Seriously, it shits me to see ads like that. Bloody thing was built to be driven, not make some anal retentive halfwit rich :(

Pity GTS-R's arent worth that lol

There accouple in unique cars between $100,000 and $110,000. FUnny thing is 6 months ago they weren't werth 1/2 that. Dad has Gts-R #68 and almost sold it for $45,000, and he thought he was doing well. He's glad the sale fell through now.

there was a fella in gympie that had an origianl monaro that he sold for 6 figures. he sent it down to auction in brissy or sydney with a reserve of something stupid like 75k just for shits and giggles and it ended up going for well over 100k. he had owned it from new and still had the original receipt from holden for it.

but that is because they can turn them into replicas of the phase 2. but if you go and buy a dirty old torana you won't get that much for it unless it is 1 of the classic ones.

mad - was that the yellow one sold at the sydney motor show auction last year?

sounds like it!

the next most common thing is for people making/building/buying replicas

replica XU1's, SS hatches, GT's etc etc etc people are starting to buy them which of course, people who already own them think that there cars should be worth more..

Are you talking the VR/VS GTS-R from holden or the Nissan HR GTS-R?

They were a nice rare model aswell

(i was talking the Nissan hehe)

    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.
