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!!

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

    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.

    • Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.
