Do you have a RWC for it? I'm just about to put an R32 GTR on the market myself, although mine is almost stock. One thing I noticed while researching values is that not one of the GTRs I looked at on carsales had a RWC. I didn't look at all of them, but there were certainly a large number of cars being sold "as is". I would never buy a car that didn't have a RWC and I think it is only fair to have one prior to even advertising it online. No one wants to get jerked around waiting for you to sort out a RWC; if they have the cash they will want the car immediately.

Good luck with your sale anyway, remember it is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. Most cars are not investments, you will typically lose a lot of what you have put into it.

Thanks Richard. I like it to. As for Godzillagtr32's comment mine will come with a rwc but if you have been looking at putting one on the market you will be aware that they are a specialty car for a certain market (unless it is a 15k piece of junk) therefore take a bit of time to sell so getting a rwc is a waste of time as you will only have to go through it all again when it sells. The other thing is if it is sold interstate (which is where most of my interest is coming from) the rwc means nothing. Either way if you bought a car like this or any car for that matter without getting a mechanic you trust to look at it first you would have rocks in your head. Anyone can get a dodgy rwc. If you are selling yours then you are probably not interested in mine so thanks for your comments but the car would be for sale for 60k if i was trying to get back what i spent on it so im aware they are not an investment!!

I wouldn't be too concerned. It will sell but times are tight and the market has plummeted.

Your definately in the ball park SLWR32 for a sale @ $28.5k

Not many appreciate the effort, expen$e, blood, sweat and yes even tears of a nice R32 GTR.

People who have them it's like ripping your heart out when they put them up For Sale.

The cost of rebuild and addons people dont really value. They look for a running GTR.

However, they will value the longevity of a good rebuild and will pay well for this. If their smart they will

An R32 GTR that hasn't been rebuilt isn't far away from needing one. Anything over 100,000kms is a ticking time bomb.

Most who buy one under $20k find that within 1-3 months the ceramic turbos shit themselves, the oil starvation does a big end bearing, rust shows through, suspension is shot etc....

So now we have the cost of the rebuild. Bought it for $15k add between 8k stock rebuild to $20k good forgie, add new Turbos etc.... So now you have a GTR between $25k and $40+k.

Yeah I'd buy a good rebuilt forged R32 GTR for around $30k if I didn't already have one that's cost close to 6 figures after 2 rebuilds.

You could post interior pics and engine bay pics for those seriously interested tho.

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
