I seen this damn tasty VS2 the other day and was wishing I had $70K to buy it and import it.

Then I got thinking what would this be worth on the Australian market?

I presume it wouldnt be worth as much as a NUR but it has a lot of tasty pieces!

Ideas guesstimates any1?

lol I had a client on it when it went through auction a few weeks back...

So globalauto purchased the car at an auction originally and have relisted it for sale through their dealership?

Would it fetch $80K here in Oz? I presume it would be about $72K landed here and complied?

I don't want to shock you. but that is what car dealers do.... they buy cars. at auction, or privately, then re-list them for more money. just like you are wanting to do. only you'd have a better chance of turning a profit by not buying your car retail from a car dealer.

Lol I realise that, I just wasn't sure if Iron Chef meant he seen it being auctioned by global auto or seen it being auctioned off prior to global auto purchasing the car. As it is now the price global have on it seems very reasonable which makes me wonder why iron chefs client didn't purchase the car from the auctions as it would have obviously been cheaper then what it is now!?

Im not wishing to sell it, I just started thinking what would this car be worth in Oz. It would be worth $70k at least but $8-90k is getting into NUR territory which I would presume would be more desirable then a tarted up VS2?

I really don't see even a Nur being worth $80-$90K in aus and a V-spec II is not rare or special at all. there's plenty of nice VS2s around if that's what you're specifically after. it has some nice bolt on bits no doubt but nothing serious, still standard engine etc. It might be worth $65,000 or so in the current market, or one special buyer may pay more, or you may not be able to sell it at all and end up taking $60K or less even. hard to say at the moment. but there is nothing that really sets is apart above other nice mildly modified R34 GTRs.

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
