If I was a mining magnate, I'd be aiming for an R35 minimum or just go straight to the top and get a Veyron. There would be a 2 door A9X sitting next to that as well. Talk about having 2 cars which are world's apart in many ways :)

Richard - was the owner you spoke to the second owner?

Yes - It wasn't Skaife, It was Terry

His wife drives the GTR R34 Vspecii Nur very well.

(and she likes my 32 a lot which made me feel all good inside)

Edit: I would have put money on Bob buying it :thumbsup:

Looks like the R34 GTR NUR also advertised by the same owner is also unavailable.

So the cheapest ADM 32 on the market is $45k. Is this the benchmark starting point from here on?

No....... The Newcastle car is still there..... http://www.carpoint.com.au/all-cars/private/details.aspx?R=SSE-AD-2034330&Cr=3

Bob.

Yeah........ Sorry my mistake.

Yes.... but that car has been for sale for ages.

We simply need a great example to go through a Shannons auction and the sold price becomes the yardstick.

It will happen in time, It always does.

Bob.

Exactly, that gtr is not a good benchmark due to high km, respray is not factory colour, reupholstered seats and general wear & tear looks like it has been used a lot BUT at least the owner enjoyed the car :)

I more looking at the dollars. If high k average cars are starting at $45k then I am a happy man, but then again, someone actually needs to buy it for around that money to make it real.

I understand that Shannon's had issue's getting over $40k for the last ADM they had at Auction (18months to 2yrs back?)

Has anyone managed to have theirs insured for over say $45k over this time?

I also believe they don't insure JDM's no matter the condition for over $35k.

I bought my ADM for $53,500 from a Shannons Auction in November 2010 so they could hardly argue about the price.

The last one that sold through them is owned by a forum member.

IMHO - Good original cars with low mileage (under 60,000 kms) that are fully documented are worth $60K, so make adjustments from that base price.

Bob.

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
