Hey,

Im looking at selling at my 89 r32 gtr but i have no idea what to put it up for.

Looking at the forsale sections doesnt help a great deal as there is a huge price spread.

basically its fully stock apart from the 17inch wheels, dba rotors and apexi pods.

body work is ok, no serious damage just scratches and small dents all round and the front lip is stuff (aftermarket fiberglass)

interior is ok too, drivers seat is torn in the usual spot, and the rest looks it age.

i got pics, but wont post them up unless it ok to do so, as this isnt the ad for it.

any adivce would be great.

thanks guys,

steve

the thing is ive seen a few go for 20k, but they were in mint conidtion, with full mods.

body wise mine is that great, e.g the boot lid has the holes and indentations from the stock wing (holes a re filled) plus there a quite a few other scratches etc on it.

also forgot to menson it needs new tyres!

steve

Interesting comments. I would think it price depends on demand and availabilty at the time of sale. But somewhere in the vacinity of 20k should be acheivable. There are some real heaps of crap GTR's out there at the moment!

I have a bog stock, never modified 1993 V Spec 1 in mint condition, with original BBS/Nissan Wheels, Brembos and Finned diff. I have had the details confirmed by Nissan that it is a V Spec 1. Still has factory air box and original radio/tape deck, what you think its worth.????

ta understand it's a different market.

and steve nothing sinister...:laugh: it was just a price I wanted once the car RWC'd after all the time (i don't have much of) and expense for the items mentioned had gone into it.

plus the fact that other roadies i've dealt with on the other cars I've had, have been picking up things that I wouldn't have worried about ie clamping the pods and maybe putting the standard airbox etc...but if the buyer wants to negotiate with me for a lower price...then I encourage them too.

some in brisbane here say don't let it go for under 23k and some say 19k so it was as much of thought gathering exercise.

might as well chuck it up for 20..

everyone else does, and most of the ones i looked at were what i would consider bunky.. scratched and dinged up

and one for 17 that had rust in the rear guards.. wtf

    • Hello Liam - HA - somewhere in flies - possibly I have an update, but I have been so busy, projects have taken a back seat to getting business back on track.  I will let you know the outcome, but I think I am going to go for the 8HP,  CHEERS.  ELVIS
    • Thanks Joshuaho96, yes - as someone else also suggested, the 8HP seems the 'smart choice' - HA - and ZERO to do with cost, but I am sure 8 speeds will be better than 6 speeds - HA - maybe.  I will purchase a new 8HP,  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Nobody said anything about getting a "...cheap Falcon box..."- it was JUST a question about a specific transmission.  And YOU may have a problem with not enough $ - HA - I do NOT - so please keep your comments like you are some financial guru to yourself.  BUT - much appreciated re the cost of a new 8HP and I twill probably be the way I go.  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Most people I know in the BMW world are swapping 6HPs for 8HPs. The 6HP has a big issue with one of the clutch drum bushings wearing out shockingly early which leads to them going into limp mode going into 5th/6th gear as the oil pressure loss from the worn bushing causes clutch slip. Even with the adaptations in shifting the TCU can't bump line pressure enough to keep the clutches from slipping and burning. I've personally looked at a 335d with 6HP28 with one owner and ~90k miles on it and the transmission adaptations were way out of spec and even though it nominally drove ok I'm confident it would have needed a full rebuild sooner than later. Other than that they're fine, but the 8HP doesn't really have weird issues like this to my knowledge and they're in everything these days so pulling them out of crashed cars isn't too hard.
    • There is an ABS pump and a few solenoids. You could trigger the front/rear solenoids with a pressure bleeder attached with a Consult 2.
