another guy called and offered 5500 but i think thats too low .its half what i paid and i bought exactly as it is.

think i;ll wait a couple of days and see what other offers come through

I'll be brutally honest and say that regardless of you paying >$10k for it, I wouldn't pay much more than $5-6k because it really does need lots more money spent on it to even get it mobile. If I were you I would take any offer in that area and be glad it's gone.

The problem is people get excited over the initial price but if they took the time to sit down and calculate what they would need to spend and what the end result would realistically look like they shit themselves and even then people always seem to underestimate the real cost of fixing these things.

If I bought that I drift it

yeah i guess. i'm getting quite alot of messages for it. plus the car looks a bit rough with the stress cracks and sitting on space saver wheels lmao. some actual wheels on it would make it alot more appealing.

Pretty sure you fried the electrics in this car.

I was seriously considering the car, and i was not joking with my 6K offer on the first page.

However after seeing pics, that purple pic shows on hell of a non stock glass body, put me right off it, would be a headache to bring her back to the stock body shape, then deal with all the other repairs.

Im being seriously honest, if you get offers around $6K take it and run. (no im not one of the people making the offers, just saying)

Most likely will be bought by someone who does not know better like you did.....

Lol really? I highly doubt that, that's why cars have fuses.

He already got the car started but having no afm with standard ecu doesn't help.

Why not return it back to more stock, you could use the money from sale of turbo, dump, injectors and maybe other stuff you dont need, then buy the stock gear and replace the headgasket ( $60) then get some wheels and should be sweet?

Don't sell it off to some low baller, pick yourself up a 1K shitbox so you can get to work and then fix up the GTR so you can enjoy it..

TBH 6k for that car is a good buy for the buyer. Rollers go for more than that.

It is but its probably the best option for the op. Its easily worth more in parts, obviously there is time and effort involved. At 6k its an attractive proposition to some, I can't see too many being interested in paying too much more.

but most rollers that are getting more then that have good bodies, I'd be surprised if this one could ever be registered again

    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
    • You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.
