the 89 model cars shouldnt really bring the price of the 92s and 93s down too much. just because "my mates mate got an 89 for 7grand" it doesnt mean a 92 is worth less.

example: all cars still have a decent price difference between age of cars within the same model. as we have seen with people trying to onsell their 89 cars, most people are asking around 13-15 (i guess everyone who has imported a car knows about the extra costs incurred to get a fresh import up to a good standard). so that means that a clean 92 or 93 with the usual extras should be more like 16-17.

yes it is more than some 33s, but there are people who are willing to pay it.

i think 89 and lack of being able to import 92, 93 models, etc for nearly 12 months have pushed the prices *up*

you used to quite easily get a good r32 gts-t for around $12-13k.. now that is almost bargain basement.

r33 are still everywhere as well these days, pushing the price of them down in general.

Looking at one with $20k on it.

Has AM Turbo, SAFC, Full Apexi zorst, GTR Bonnet & Front Bar, FMIC, Cam Gears, CAI, CD Stacker, Nice wheels, Exterior very clean as is interior, 140,000 (will check if rebuilt and by whom) - could actually be a 'real' km reading!

Need to get more details though - waiting for him to get back to me.

nismo_boy - whats wrong with the 89' skylines??

Not so much what’s “wrong” with the 1989 R32’s, its just then general bandwagon kiddies who read the Risbey and J-spec list’s, and see the cheap and nasty R32’s with the $9k - $12k price tag, yet they fail to take into account the what if coast’s if something were too go wrong, as with most older cars they need all work. Not the case with all… But you can see where I’m coming from.. In saying that though, I know even the newer one's can, and will do need work ect ect.

I am trying to buy a 93 R32 GTS-t in Japan at the moment and like all cars shitters are cheap, clean auto's are mid priced and a manual with under 100,000 in the right colour with no accidet repair are up their 350,000 yen plus.

It is like everything in life if you think the price is fair and you can afford buy it.

I agree with some of you other guys, it's not the year 89-93etc it's current condition of the car overall.

I would pay just as much for a 89 as 93 if the condition and mods were good. Afterall it's the same car.

Wouldn't waste your time with cheap and nasty anything under 10K (local or imported) much better off getting good clean car and spending a few extra grand.

    • 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.
