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.

    • 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
    • Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.
    • Just one thing; tapping tapered threads is tricky. Taps are always tapered and you would generally run it as far as you can, but with a tapered thread you have to stop much sooner otherwise the wide part of the taper will run in too far and you will have to thread the sensor in too far too as well (possible that it will never make a good seal) BTW nice wide wheels, I guess the top one is for the back!
    • Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity. Edit: 11kg each (or 10.9/11.1 depending on what my scale decides over multiple tests, the 18x11 don't seem to weigh noticeably any more than 10.5)
