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.

    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
    • There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
