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.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
