seeing as 89 models like that are going to be less than $10k landed next year.. he would be lucky to get that amount.. however if he gets in quick might be able to get that price before the end of the year.

also, im really smart, i forgot to add the more important parts lol...well, he forgot to tell me n e way..

its also got a bodykit? no idea what sort..

and big FMIC and wheels....does that help its value?

any info would help....i told him about what u said for 10k...he is now depressed lol.

Ryan: you can buy them now in Japan from $7k and upwards. Prestige had a worked R32 GTST with an RB26DETT for $12K

Selling now is a good idea - just remember, if you buy an 89 model in Japan cheap to avoid compliance, you need to wait until January 2004 to bring it over

well u see that is base on "the laws not changing", lets just hope the gov r stupid dogs, and will leave it as it is. WIth the new compliencing scheme. r32, silvia,s 180sx, 300zx. will be everyone at next to nothing prices. but the quality of some of the cars are ...... not great. Sell the r32 now just to be safe i reckon. i doubt the prices will increase for 92 models. r33 and r34 'might' increase if compliencing plates become a scarce thing.

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
