my husband and i own a PNV, and are looking at getting rid of it, as we have our first baby on the way, and a 2 door car is not really practical anymore.

it runs well, and we have a spare motor, gearbox, bonnet (i think), some panels, turbo, among many other spare parts to go with it.

wondering what it would be worth??????

hope you guys can help me out!!!!!!

And your in Adelaide sort of eh?

Well Jess, as there is only 3 confirmed to be in Australia, it's a very limited market your trying to sell to. Someone needs to want to own it to have it be worth much at all.

There is mine, which will never be for sale and the other is in Canberra and he can't get any offers over $4500-5000.00 so I guess you wont be parting with it for that, so there lies the problem.

I bought mine for $5000.00 about 3 years ago, but "I wanted one, not particularly a PNV but a 2 door R30 Skyline" with just 3 days rego on it, from the guy that imported it, so mine has had just 2 owners since 1997 when it started it's new life in Australia and it's been garaged all of that time.

What sort of K's does it have on the clock and what were you sort of expecting?

Cheers, D

PNVs only seem to command big money in Japan where there is a strange cult following. most other markets will just treat it as an ordinary GT-ES with an actor's signature slapped on it for "cheese" factor :kiss:

There is a PNV slowly rusting away in my friend's garage... it hurt to look at the last time I was over there.

still starts and runs and is perfectly roadworthy, but has been neglected for the last 18 months.

yup, Paul Newman Version.

"There is a PNV slowly rusting away in my friend's garage... it hurt to look at the last time I was over there."

This one by chance?

nope, this particular PNV is a white/blue one (much like yours I gather)

wonder where that one in the photo ended up :P

The one in the photo used to belong to a d!ck named George Bryant and he lives in Nelson and he swapped it for a pig. A 4 dr sedan HR30 and both Stagefumer and myself supplied all sorts of parts to him to help him out without anything in return and he eventually sold it to buy a poofter Honda CRX with a dudd motor and paid nobody what he owed them.

    • Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.  
    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
    • Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
