R34 Gtr Prices -price Projections?


Recommended Posts

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

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.

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'.

    • Slimline sub on the rear parcel shelf is doable. Pioneer TS-WX140DA is only 70mm high.   
    • People like Johnny Dose Bro might be laughing at my post because I accidentally added 100mm to my numbers. 350-355 is indeed the lower limit. 450 is off-road Skyline spec.
    • What is the "compromise" that you think will happen? Are you thinking that something will get damaged? The only things you have to be concerned about with spherical jointed suspension arms are; Arguments with the constabulary wrt their legality (they are likely to be illegal for road use without an engineering certificatation, and that may not be possible to obtain). A lot more NVH transmitted through to the passengers (which is hardly a concern for those with a preference for good handling, anyway). Greatly increased inspection and maintenance requirements (see above points, both).   It is extremely necessary to ask what car you are talking about. Your discussion on strut tops, for example, would be completely wrong for an R chassis, but be correct for an S chassis. R32s have specific problems that R33/4 do not have. Etc. I have hardened rubber bushes on upper rear control arms and traction rods. Adjustable length so as to be able to set both camber and bump steer. You cannot contemplate doing just the control arms and not the traction arms. And whatever bushing you have in one you should have in the other so that they have similar characteristics. Otherwise you can get increased oddness of behaviour as one bushing flexes and the other doesn't, changing the alignment between them. I have stock lower rear arms with urethane bushes. I may make changes here, these are are driven by the R32's geometry problems, so I won't discuss them here unless it proves necessary. I have spherical joints in the front caster rods. I have experienced absolutely no negatives and only positives from doing so. They are massively better than any other option. I have sphericals in the FUCAs, but this is driven largely by the (again) R32 specific problems with the motion of those arms. I just have to deal with the increased maintenance required. Given how much better the front end behaves with the sphericals in there.....I'd probably be tempted to go away from my preference (which is not to have sphericals on a road car, for 2 of the 3 reasons in the bulleted list above), just to gain those improvements. And so my preference for not using sphericals (in general) on a road car should be obvious. I use them judiciously, though, as required to solve particular problems.
    • Easiest way to know is to break out the multimeter and measure it when cold, then measure all the resistances again once it gets hot enough to misfire. Both the original ignitor and the J Replace version. Factory service manual will have the spec for the terminal measurements.
    • Yes that sounds right. Cars currently in the shop for the engine work. Will need to remeasure .. but yes I think I must be targeting 45cm from fender.
