i have a R32 GTR nismo edition and im trying to find out how many there are in australia.

if there were only 560 made in 1990 then it must be getting rare by now.

Hey mate, great buy with that car, would have snapped it up real quick if I had not bought already, (still tried, but the missus objected..) I have asked the same question about V-specIIs, because of the 1303 built there seems to be about 1500 left... I know of at least 3 Nismos on here including yours, and there is at least 1 N1. Make sure you register in the "rare skylines" thread.

There are 3 N1's lining up for Targa.

There's 2 i think on here that i know of, i also know a couple in Canada, and 1 in the US.

There would also be a fair few left in Japan guys (NISMO's and N1's). Being that there's not much info that comes out of Japan in English, its very hard to get accurate figures.

But the cars just didn't dissapear off the face of the earth. Yes a number would have been lost on race tracks but i don't think they're as scarce as some believe.

It just looks that way to us, cause so few make it Aus and other English speaking countries.

i reckon the numbers would be close to half.

gotta think about all the dickheads that would have written them off over the past 20 years.

anyone know the prices both of them are going for at the moment??????

The last N1 i saw had a few small mods, 120000k's, no books and was around $30k landed and complied.

I've also seen several original very low km v-spec's and non v-specs sell for close to $40k in great condition so a very original N1 or NISMO would be upwards of that.

But in all seriousness, you would have to find a pretty motivated buyer to get those prices.

In saying all that, I've seen modded, un original, no books NISMO's sell for around $20k.

either way i guess swapping my clubsport (paid $13,000 for it) for a basically stock NISMO was a good deal for me then. :blink:

    • The question then becomes - was there any fluid coming from that hole before you did the rebuild ?    You may not have noticed, of course.   Depending on how you did the rebuild, the possibility has to be considered that somehow (cleaning ?)  fluid entered that hole and is now being 'forced'  out by small movements of the proportioning valve.   From the factory, there's actually a small rubber plug in that hole but with age and under-bonnet heat it's quite common for it to 'go missing'.  That rubber plug is designed to allow the venting process but also to prevent 'stuff' getting to the area (prevent corrosion, etc).   The plug is also not available as a spare part AFAIA. Personally I wouldn't race and buy a new master just yet but keep an eye on the area to see if the 'leak' continues.   If you're concerned about brake fluid damaging nearby paintwork, cable tie a piece of suitable absorbant material over the hole and remove/monitor occasionally.    Operation of the proportioning valve and the brake master itself won't be affected, but also keep an eye on brake fluid level, of course. In terms of a new master, the genuine part is getting expensive, unfortunately.  Amayama is showing AUD900+.   I was searching recently and there's an aftermarket part available from Japan made by 'Parts Assist': https://zenmarket.jp/en/yahoo.aspx?q=BNR32%2bBM50&p=1 Whether it's any good I have no idea, although in my experience Japanese aftermarket stuff is pretty good quality-wise.   The above site allows overseas buyers to purchase stuff more easily from Japan but there are fees and shipping costs, of course.   The original Japanese seller page is here: https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p1197401228 Copper/Nickel is fine but I still prefer bundy tube and it's also cheaper.
