Hey guys,

Just reaching out for some help as I'm trying to sell my 98 R34 GTT Turbo manual coupe but not having any luck.

The k's are on the higher side @ 172,000kms.

But the car is in good condition with only a couple of minor scratches.

Tried to sell it for $14,990 but have now dropped it to $13,990.

Please check my car out by clicking on my sig to see the for sale ad,

Let me know what price you think people are willing to pay.

I need it gone this week!

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Cheers,

Jaylon

I bought a 34 recently with 145k on the clock for $10,500 and it had a fair bit of work done to it, Tein Suspension with an EDFC, 3" turbo back exhaust with a split dump pipe and a few other bits and bobs. It's in GREAT shape as well, just needed a little TLC in the engine bay.

It's a buyers market right now unfortunately mate.

Wow thats insanely cheap!

Was it manual and 2 door?

Unfortunately I wouldn't be able to sell mine that cheap.

Might have to wait it out a bit and cut back some stuff on the wedding :(

$10,500 is cheap! I paid $8800 for my r33 s1 manual coupe with low km's and in good condition just over a year ago so I think the price your asking is decent. I'd pay $13990 if I was in the market for an r34 in good condition. Maybe take it off the market for a few months as there seems to be an abundance of skylines for sale at the moment and it's so hard to compete when some are selling for next to nothing.

$14k is cheap for an r34 compared to others advertised...

yours is high km's but they all are in reality yours just has not had a haircut...

my point is advertised averages does not tell you what its worth, its worth what someone is willing to pay...

maybe take it off the market and bring it back onto the market via carsales after tax time at $14k ono...

Yeah fair enough,

I went into it thinking $15k would be sweet,

but now I realise what people are willing to pay for it.

I have one guy keen,

he's willing to pay $13k so I think I might have to bite the bullet and settle for 13.

Thanks for all your advice!

Since buying my 34 I keep an eye on the market eg. carsales and threads on here, and 34 sales (and perhaps most turbo's?) seem to be quite stagnant. Clean examples with low k's that would have been advertised for $20k + at the start of the year are now opening at 17-18k. I know a few 34's that are STILL on carsales that were floating around when I started looking for cars 6mths ago. Assuming they are as good as the owners and pictures say, they simply have not dropped in price and hence do not sell.

From a buyers point of view the k's on your car would be a turn off, although it looks really clean and has a few nice mods. Love the front lip, have the same on my car :thumbsup:

Just remember its not a vs/vt/vx commodore or a 4cyl runaround, just gotta hang out for the right buyer. gl

Hmm good point.

It's just that I needed it gone a couple of weeks ago to pay for wedding stuff so I'm in a bit of trouble with money.

Was thinking this would sell quicker if I drop the price.

Hope people haven't been turned off!

This is gonna sound like a really stupid question,

but what can you use to write on the windows of your car?

Carsales never sent me the for sale sticker and I've emailed them countless times for it.

Thanks.

If it's still for sale in a couple of months, I'll take it off your hands for the money you're asking mate.

I'm starting a new job within the month and I'll be making a lot, so it all depends on how long I have to be working to get a loan, but if your car is still there, I'm keen as mustard.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      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.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      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.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      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.
