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.

    • The attached document is fine. I just downloaded & opened it.
    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • 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.
