lol what a waste of a thread... people will only pay what they are willing to pay. around the brisbane area there is way more 33's so around here the price on 32's is a little higher. theres ooodles of both getting sold though, so its up to the buyer to deicde on the "thats to dear" or "thats a bargin"

F**K YOU! :D

Here you go mate..

Oh... I see your pain...

hey.. not my fault you paid too much for a nugget.

but it's ok..

you can sleep well knowing that you got a car with a boat anchor for a motor

Make sure you keep those revs over 4K mate.. you don't want to find your self in the Subaru Twin turbo style Valley Of Death

The R32's seem to be holding their value the past few years - So hard to find a clean example now so i went along with the importing route and scored a clean example for 12k which i thought was a reasonable price.

Re-itterating on a lot of points here, the P-Plate restrictions, lack of clean examples, baseline value are playing a huge part in the prices and there's nothing you can do about it. If you really like the car, you would fork out the money for the price being offered.

Everyone has their own opinion, it's just that hardly anyone can present a mature point - sound like a bunch of school kids fighting over what match box car is better than the other. Get over it - reading this shit puts me off visiting SAU.

hmm well personally i wouldnt pay $600,000 for a 30+ year old ford... but people do!

it comes down to what people want, and supply and demand!

...if no one wanted them, people would be struggling to sell them, so people would be asking less for them! Simple

You're comparing an R32 GTST to a GTHO? :rofl:

Here's another way to look at it.

Cheapest R32 GTST I've probably seen was about $6K.

a shitty, faded, 89 model with oil leaks etc etc.. what youd expect for that money right.

cheapst R32 GTR I've seen was $13K.

same condition.

Both same year

$7K apart.

new car price for both?

$40K for GTST??

$100K for GTR?

It's only the R32 GTST owners that seem to be confused about the value of their cars (mexicans I can understand due to P Plate restrictions)

$12K for a clean undamaged, smoke free R32 GTST is a fair price in my eyes.

people asking $16K for this sort of thing are Dreamers and only a SUCKER would buy at that price.

lol @ matchbox styles

Also lol @ rb20 = boat anchor, that means they should be in the 33 because they're a boat

:rofl::D

Actually i would probably get a S2 33 over a non-type M 32 (with the nice front bar)

you got that wrong ey... its not the OWNERS that are confused about the value of their car... its got to be the BUYERS, if you own a car you know is worth (example) $20,000, and someone offers you $24000, would you say no?? its a buyers market, the buyers bring the prices up or down, not the damn sellers.

you know if a car is over priced, cause it will start at (example again) $17,000...then go to $15500... then maybe 15k and so on till it reaches its price range.

there are plenty of "suckers" as you call them out there wanting to buy a car, and hell if a "sucker" come up to me prepared to pay more then the value of my car, il say yes!!

CJ

I reckon, that in the long run, better looking cars hold their value better. Now an rb20 is pretty easily replaced with a 25, but try and make a pig ugly 33 look like a 32..... sorry guys, but everyone know 32s are a way better looking car than 33s.....

Doesn't the fact that we know there are suckers make us more opportunist than dreamer?

Despite being a little slow i feel the need to retort to some earlier posts

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
