I actually think you have priced it spot on and I'll explain why.......

Exactly two years ago I sold a very nice black ADM (to Perth) for around $35K. It had about 175,000 kms but in excellent condition like yours.

It took me 7 months to sell and the mileage was always an issue.

Yours has another 90,000 kms on the one I sold which in my book is worth about another $8K-$10K less. 

If we deduct that of what I sold mine for we would land in the high $20K region.

We all understand that during R32 GT-R's in general have increased in value approx 50% over the last 2 years and increasing, they have nowhere near peaked. 

When you do the sums, low to mid $40K's is about right.

With all that said, you will either get knock over in the rush and sell it immediately or suffer the same issue I had where collectors just won't buy a high milage car.

An enthusiast would probably prefer a lot lower milage JDM for similar money

It is probably easier to find a buyer at $100K with a sub 60,000 kms ADM car.

Regardless, it presents lovely in the pic you posted and a credit to all the owners in keeping it factory original considering all the useage it has had.

Good luck wit the sale, please keep us informed.

Cheers,

Bob.

Yes wasnt happy with the front bumper and mirrors from previous owner so i had them painted other wise just some hand polish. I have enjoyed the 4 years that i have had it for and now time to buy something old and restore/modify build up and get that satisfaction of doing it yourself ( and getting help from my 2 girls ).

Hi all,

I have recently purchased an Adm. Vin ending with 16098. Would love to know abit of history regarding this car.

Thanks 

Welcolm...... Based on that it's build #32, Black.

I don't have any other info.

Can you please advise when did you buy it, from where, milage?

Are you Sydney based?

Photos?

Any info may help to jog peoples memory.

Thanks,

Bob.

Yes mate. Came from Queensland 

Yeah.... The gold badges were the unique give-away.

The milage surprises me though. It was advertised with about 148,000kms then (18 months ago).

I know it took forever to sell (as did mine at the time) so maybe the mileage creeped up in time.

Anyway good luck with the resto and if you need a hand with anything or would like to catch up for some pointers, please drop me a PM.

Cheers,

Bob.

    • Ha, I've never pressed the X in all these years incase it removed the notification for all Admins
    • I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.
    • Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!
    • I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)
    • I get that taking off the head is best but that's a bit much for "just" valve seals. I was just under the impression that one would be able to rotate to TDC and be able to temporarily drop the valve without losing it and effectively having to remove the head to then recover it. I never knew people actually pushed rope into the cylinder to do valve seals hahaha So just to confirm, just going to TDC will not work? In that case I know when I do valve seals I'll maybe just remove the head and do some other things while I'm there, or just wait until I do an engine build.
