i would have to be offered at least 15 (ie. quite a bit more than what anyone would usually pay for a s2 r33) ... after i sell my wheels to kr4-gtr for some ludicrous price :P

even at such an inflated price, considering all the time/effort/money i've put into it... i would probably just break even :P

50K Offer before i would even listen.

I cant believe how cheap 'GTR's are now, i know you can get a bargain sometimes, however

i still think under 30k for an R33 is maybe a bit 2 cheap for a good one.

Don't give up :( just leave it there....most sell eventually but it has to take the right buyer to come along and be after exactly what you've got.... sometimes that can take MONTHS :) just ask anyone who's been selling..

Hey if every skyline owner wouldnt take anything less than an extortionate price for their car, we could charge what we wanted, people would eventually cave in haha :) .........but that wld b kinda hard 2 do while japan is still in contact lol

Yes but every person who imports a car knows that he can sell it for more than what he paid for it!

Furthermore, there is a higher increment again up to the 'Agreed Value' in his insurance policy!

I can understand your thinking tho' = once a buyer here has latched onto a perfect (or near-perfect) specimen, he/she is reluctant to let it go for less than it's worth!

Our cars already depreciate much much less than a Commoford. :yes: So are we lucky? Or just ASTUTE?

I'd consider anything over 60k. Many people ask if its for sale and when I tell them how much I'm willing to let it go for i can tell by their look on their face as to say 'your dreaming'.

I'm thinking the same if they think they're getting it for anything less....

Everything is for sale, its just how much the owner is willing to let it go for....

"Everything is for sale at the right price"

What about swaps?

I'd possibly swap my SR20DET Datsun 1600 for an R35 GTR, but then realising that all that blood sweat and tears would just be swapped for a car that I could just buy anyway (for over $100K!), probably isn't worth it. Plus the fact that the R35 owner would be getting a superior car.... :P;)

(or should that be swapping a superior car....) HAHhahaha. :D

This is an emotional question - it is not about what the car's market value is but what it is worth to you - what would it take for you to part with it.

My Skylines are worth much more to me than just their sale price - they provide an interest and an outlet for my motoring passion. My son always stirs me because I treat them like babies and spend too much money on them.

My GTR is in showroom condition with a total of three stone chips on the whole car.

My GTS-T has been my daily driver until a few months ago when I retired. I am now embarking on a full bare metal respray including the replacement of the passengers rear quarter due to some minor rust from an earlier repair in the old country. I nearly have a complete car in parts and will have a complete (new from Nissan) concourse front bar and bonnet and a second front bar and bonnet for track days and the like due to likehood of getting some stone chips on the track.

Now is that starting to look like a passion or what? How can you put a price on that? The fact that I also have four other cars in the driveway for my family to use as daily drivers further supports this concept.

      Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.

      Does the scanner do all the CUs in the car, or only the ECU?

      R34 N/a And R34 Turbo (gtt) Transmission.. Uh, Problem.

      By albyz34gt · Posted

      @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man

      Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?

      ECU sees many times the speed than speedo does (R34 swap)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
