Even GTSt and GT-t models are starting to creep up, trying to jump on the GT-R price rise bandwagon

Carsales have a few R34 non-turbo 25GT for 14-20k, auto R33 GTSt for 15k, and turbo R34 Gt-t are in the low to mid 20's all of a sudden (one dealer wants 30 for a "low" km car)

and then theres this... http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Nissan-Skyline-1994/SSE-AD-2765592/?Cr=393

and this one, ready to ship to usa

it will spike up and flatten out but they will continue up. but i simpy dont think in 10 years when the us market opens up we will be seeing many under 100k

Will these current prices hold/rise until the US can import them? Or is it a case of riding the wave for a few years until it drops?

I seriously don't believe they will drop, ever. Maybe in 100 years+ when we're all dead lol. They are going to continue rising and eventually flatten out at a price above 100 grand easily.

I'm with Gymkhana on this one. Don't think they (specifically R34) prices are dropping for a long time, if ever, especially since the US market is only just beginning. 

Maybe in 15-20 years when the US owners actually realise what goes into owning these types of cars, but even then, I doubt it.

My two cents on this topic; Good quality 33s are on the rise. I started looking around this time last year. Prices were mid to low 20s for a 33 (decent ones) in the time it's taken me to pull my finger out clean stock 33s are around 30-35k. Of course i bought way outside of stock so my car doesnt count as normal pricing. But i can say a R33 LM Limited, cannot be had for less than 45k in Australia right now. They are crazy money from Japan!!!

Found this article. Dam good read would say its spot on atm but what if the maintenance, parts available and reducing quality of vehicle are reduced, wouldn't you think showroom standard sky rocket but substandard just settle down.

This car has just received an offer from Bologna 3 days ago.

ETang-0283_zps0223f795.jpg

 

That offer has been passed on, to another SAU Member with a BNR34 N1.
Negotiations are continuing between the pair (and even myself to reflect upon), but there's not much change of 300,000AUD
Congratulations to them both, if there's an 'end-game'.

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
