Been lurking on this forum for a while and I have also been monitoring the prices of 2009 GT-R's. I was wondering when you think the private prices will drop to around the 70-75K mark, recently a car was auctioned by Grays online with a final sales price of $73,500 the car had ~60,000km. There have been a few examples of 85K on carsales however these don't last long or they are JDM 2008 GT-R's.

I know a GT-R is an amazing car and great value for money, I just find it interesting that their depreciation has plateaued or at least the price at which they are advertised. With some of your expertise do you think these cars are likely to fall around the 70K mark around February/March next year? Would the 2015 Model effect the price this much and also with anticipation of the new GT-R result in a similar change.

Feel free to voice your opinions

I cant see them falling that far for a long time yet. Remember that these were a $170k car.

If you have the cash or the means, do it now. Who knows where you will be in 1 year from now.

2015 model will make absolutely no difference at all. R35 may.

You didn't mention the auction car sold for $73,500 commands another 7% which then takes it close to 80k. Then add all the other bits like rego, possible new tyres, servicing, etc and the cheap selling price now seems a lot more.

The 7% is a fixed fee so that should probably be included in the calculation, but servicing tyres and rego could be an addition to every car bought second hand, however there is always an added risk to buying cars from auctions and arguably you can do a better deal privately with cash in hand.

It's certainly a great car for the price, but its holding value better than an M3 or a C63 or nearly every other car made in that year at that price point. I usually take redbook with a grain of salt however their prices are

Private Price Guide $80,500 - $88,100 Trade In Price Guide $71,800 - $79,400

and for the premium

* Private Price Guide $82,700 - $90,400 * Trade In Price Guide $73,800 - $81,500 * Average Km 50,000 - 90,000

If R35 prices dropped to 70k, good R34 GTR would need to be selling for under 40k. used car market on performance cars is based on bang for your buck as well. Will be a few years till it gets to that price in my opinion.

I guess like with anything to anything the value of the car is what a person is willing to pay for it! I doubt many 15 year old cars can command what the BNR34's do these days, but there is always that bang for buck element with these cars

It states this on their site.

Buyers Premium

A buyers premium of 7% applies to all lots purchased in this auction.

For example: Successful Bid Price is $100.00 + 7% Buyers Premium = $107.00 Invoice Total

Yeh but even with the 7% premium we are still looking at 78,645, which is quite a difference from the Private/Dealer prices

Auction cars can tend to get a fair bit cheaper.

The trade off being you can't drive the car- that's very risky for an R35.

I imagine prices will hold firm for quite some time, these cars are in demand and production is low.

      Unknown sound similar to BOV on positive boost with partial throttle RB26

      By nouveau_poor · Posted

      I certainly fall into the annoyed camp, but glad to hear that if it's happening at low boost then I'm not likely going to blow a turbo and end up with metal shards in my oil. Just feels like it prevents me from really driving it without hesitation and "peak" performance. Wonder if it's the VCAM, it did an impressive job of shifting the torque curve and faster spool, but maybe now it's "too fast" and there's too much air for how open the throttle is.  Based on some other threads, will also do some reading on synchronizing the actuators. They are the default actuators that come on the Garrett's and I would think they would be set the same coming from the factory, but if the turbos don't actually work exactly the same way at the same time as previously mentioned, it would be worth making sure the actuators are actuating together properly

      R34 Skyline Sunroof Won't Tilt/Vent

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      I went down this rabbit hole before, ended up sourcing a motor from the UK (I'm in Japan) which also didn't function correctly. With the original motor, I disassembled it and reassembled it and it works somewhat, sometimes. What I could deduce from all my screwing around is that there is calibration of the gears on the inside of the motor and two ramps on the main gear which activate switches that operate the motor and move the sunroof either to retract into the roof or tilt. Where I got stuck was that, it seemed in my case that one or both of the switches that are activated by the ramp on the gear did not always activate and thus the motor did not move, causing it to sometimes not retract or tilt (apologies, I've forgotten which way it didn't work.).  Of course this part is discontinued at Nissan now, it's the same part in the S15 but no other models. I also contacted the manufacturer of the component for schematics - forgot the name, they're based in Gifu - but they declined to share the information due to being bound by an NDA, sadly. Looking through my pictures now, it seems I last had a crack at this in 2022. See, I so kindly wrote "open" and "close" next to the switches. If you figure it out, please do tell me. Those little switches, with the red buttons may need to be replaced.

      Shoota's R33 GT-R RB30/26

      It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣

      R34 Skyline Sunroof Won't Tilt/Vent

      By ShezzDogs · Posted

      Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
