$50k for a 32 GTR wow. if they are asking that much it must be a good one :P. Can't go wrong with a V SpecII

16,000 km's and it's pretty much showroom condition still. Not too many V-SpecII's getting around either. It's a nice one for sure.

Not too good a buy imo.

The logical buyer is a car collector, as buying it and using it even for a short trip turns it into just another Nur ..

Who has a car collection for just display in australia (or anywhere outside Japan) where this would be a logical fit?

I doubt anyone..

That mint z-tune from a year or two ago - now, maybe..

PS: I got my car from zele. Great car although their photographer probably worked for playboy s/he is good at

making their stock look better than perfect - whereas in the flesh there are stretch marks, wrinkles and age lines!

(not the case with this example tho).

Yep this car is a "new" car. I'm quite good friends with the president of Zele and I went to Yokohama to check this car out the other day. It's only got delivery KM's on it, it's the real deal. Never seen a 34 as perfect looking. It sits in an air conditioned office 24x7 tucked behind a McLaren SLR.

It has 6.5 million yen on it if you're interested. Not really that negotiable though as the right buyer will pay that when he sees it.

6.5 mil is a very good buy imo. If only our dollar was back at the historic highs, I would've considered buying it.

Just curious, how does this work? assume the dollar was back at 100 yen to the dollar..

so you buy this one instead of a mint Nur with 20,000 kms for 4.5 million ..

ok, then what?

in a year, you'll have lost 2 million yen, unless you just want to put it in your living room on blocks?

Is it worth spending $20k to show a dozen people your odo for 12 months?

I would buy the car purely as an investment, and yep, god forbid, keep it in storage. Mind you I would still have my current car to keep me smiling.

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
