I am in the hunt for one of these however cannot afford the $100k for the top condition ones.

My question is; what would the price be for a 1. fairly bad one and 2. a good average one. I am talking non v-spec with nil mods. The basic GTR

Is it true that all of them will have at least some accident damage to them being an import ?

Any help would be appreciated, cheers jr

The price is subjective right now as noone is really selling any so people just make up a price and run with it. For example, SWOOP recently sold his nicely modded GTR V-Spec for more than $100k. It had about 20k in mods though so it was probably worth in that vicinity at the time.

On the other hand PowerPlay imports have a pretty stock 99 GTR (some minor mods worth about 3k max) with 36000 kms on the clock for $115k. This is overpriced but someone may pay it.

On the import side of things you're looking at $80k and up for a good mid to low K's GTR or V-Spec. Or $72k and up for a standard GTR with maybe a few paint blemishes and medium to high KM.

Occasionally you see some "bargains" for $65k - $72k but they either have high kilometers or some other problems.

And accident damage - well no you cannot have any serious accident damaged or you will not be able to get the car complied at all. Under SEVS serious accident damaged cars must be re-exported or destroyed.

I guess there is some small chance that the car you get will have been in a small ding and have panel repairs but thats just the same as buying any second hand car anywhere at any time throughout history.

These prices factor in compliance etc.

    • Congrats on the career change!  I did something similar at the start of the year too, left IT / corporate after nearly 2 decades. Soooo when's the motor coming out for the spark plug change?
    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
