[Rezz]

]']Mate those mirros aint? power windows ey?

You mean "power mirrors" right? Or power windows...?

Yes on both counts.

[sammus]

my guess is you paid a around 100,000 yen...

?

[White±Nothing]

Yeah seriously, I'm curious as to how much you paid. What sort of difference in price there is to prices here in Australia.

[Polski]

White nothing, R32 GTS-t's go for 100,000Y - 200,000Y standard / minimal mods in auctions. which is about $1500 - $3000 AUD.

i doubt rezz will tell u his price, caus it will probably make u cry

[Rezz]

Polski's prices are without shaken (Japanese tax-rape-disguised-as-roadworthyness-check)... as noted in the other thread, could add anywhere in the vicinity of 100,000 yen onto those prices.

I will tell you this though: I got my car WITH 2 years shaken (the usual duration for over 3 year old cars) for less than 300,000 yen...

Come on Rezz, how 'bout some more details? Age, mileage, "rating", etc? We want details dammit

Cheers,

Unless it's bought at auction, it won't have a 'rating', other than one you might attribute to it personally

if you want to check out average japanese caryard prices - use the japanese automotive links thread (it's a sticky) - there is a section in there for car sales. You should be able to bumble your way through those sites (easily if you some minimal japanese skills) - but you can always ask for help if you need it

One thing to note - the price advertised is not the 'real' price (the same goes for 'windscreen' prices you see in car yards, the 'real' price is usually on a sheet inside each car). There are a handful of extra charges that may need to be applied - local tax, name change, shaken, and so on - these costs vary between cars - due to things such as location, type of car, etc. 100,000 is about the average 'add-on' cost if shaken is required - though this can sky-rocket if there are problems with the car. I've always bought a car that had shaken, or bargained free shaken into the price (it's a good haggling point).

omg, i luvvv it, red r32's... mmMM

i feel like a traitor to my red32 as i never drive it as i always take out my supra.

[Polski]

speaking of other charges , can someone plz inform me of the costs of buying a car in Japan ? I know its different in each city as they have their own taxes.

but maybe someone can give me an example of a 500,000Y vehicle. ?

Rezz, what are you paying for your car space in Kobe? Im hopefuly moving to Kobe march/april next year

I know, that's why I put rating in inverted commas

I am not personally interested in R32 GTS-t's in general, just after some specifics on Rezz's car, but he seems to want to remain a little secretive about it, probably because its full of NOS bottles and T04Rs

[Rezz]

Alright LW, your twisting my arm... 1990 89,900km`s grade 3.5 (about). Troy may have a different rating though!

Thanks Rezz Are you pleased with your purchase?

LW.

[Mr R32 M-Spec]

so apart from what I can see in hte pics, like pod, wheels etc... is it standard, or are there some mods like coilovers I can't see?

any major plans?

I like GTR's, why I am importing one(only 2 months to go now!!!) but my first performance car was a 32 GTST, and will always have a softspot for them

[Evo_Lee]

As the car was bought privately there is no rating...but given the age, kilometres, condition etc...I also rate it as a 3.5. It has a bit of rust and bit rough around the edges but given the age and Ks the car looks good and it runs beautifully. As for the pricing Justin has already indicated approximate, and you can't beat mates rates.

Before Justin there was another buyer (a mate) and myself who were interested in picking up this car as a drifter, then Justin mentioned he was in the market for an R32 and rest you all know about.

[Rezz]

Some pics from yesterday... DIY! Who needs a garage???

Troy, thanks HEAPS for coming around yesterday and helping/buying extras, I really appreciate it. ... oh, and we were neck and neck last night, but I had a passenger and you didn't... hehehe

Blitz LM 'cooler:

[Demon Dave]

Lookin good Justin

DIY in the street - bet you got more than a few strange looks from the locals, 2 gaijins, car in pieces, swearing loudly when "that bl00dy bolt won't come undone!"

lunch at Makudonarudo's I see

Have you noticed much difference with the new intercooler on? Is the turbo more laggy? Looks like the front cross member is covering a large part of the cooler up - any plans for a new bumper - get more air into it?

[CerealKiller]

I got the same cooler! Makes very little difference in terms of response. Only advantage is that you can run higher boost (plus cooler in warmer weather - but make a partition of the A'PEXi power intake too).

Try cutting out the part where the front number plate goes, a lot of the cooler is hidden behind that.

Rezz's car is fairly similar to mine (at least the engine anyway).
