hi, does anyone knows the price bracket for an r32 gts-t stock manual , 2 door coming from dealers ? thanxz

$6500 is the cheapest I have seen, but most are $9990 +

Power road car sales is a good place to check out

From a dealer?? :bs!: maybe non-complied.. and even that is pushing it.

From a dealer the usual price is around $15k.. lowest you'll find one worth buying privately will be $12k.

Daler32: you got a good price on yours - was it a recent sale?.. I've seen a few stickered R32 at close to around $20k up here..

stay away from power road car sales... their prices do NOT include and compliance or anything. they basically get the car off the boat and put it on the floor. when you buy it then they add on about $3-4k worth of fixing up

as Gordon said, you'd be looking between $12-15k for a decent example at a dealership

thnx dude, i'll check that out, what about japanese sports auto dealer? JSA IMPORTS ? do u guys think its a good deal over there? thnxx

JSA Imports. The level of the cars that I saw there was quite poor. Most had rust and badly repaired accident damage. Ever wondered why most cars there have had cheap resprays and body kits put on them?

I can't believe how expensive R32 GTS-T's are atm. I bought an immaculate stock '93 for $13500 about 3 years back from a dealer. Most examples now are over priced and have sellers sitting and scratching their heads as to why they can't sell their cars.

4 doors tend to be cheaper, as are automatics.

but for a turbo, manual 2 door, expect to pay $12-15k+

the 4 door r32 gts-t manual i just imported has so far cost me $8k (landed ie before compliance), engine is in pristine condition, but needs a respray.

I bought my 32gts t about 1.5 years ago and paid 10.500.

4 door of course thats just for getting the kiddies seats in and out!

But when you buy cheap i have found you need to be prepared to have extra money incase things go wrong as they sometimes do

definately stay away from power rd car sales.. both myself and 46n2 tried to enquire about cars there and got very poor responses.. upon asking about 'features of the car'.. we were told such things as.. "its silver".......... "rigggght, manual or auto, how many k's??".... "I dunno if its manual.... I dunno how many k's Ill have to ring you back.. ".. I don't think he really wants to sell cars and he certainly doesn't seem to know much about the ones he's selling... we had to force the above responses out of him as it was.. no callbacks either, very dodgy/shit seller.

Actually I bought my car through pro_gtr .. I'm not sure if he is still importing but he sold me an *immaculate* 180.. you wouldn't believe the condition its in. Bought privately in Japan not at an auction.. had no real problems with it since purchase.. very happy :) Ask him if hes still importing, he might be able to get you a really nice 32.

:P

does anyone have anything positive to say about power road car sales??   coz everything i hear on several forums, is bad, they must be doing something wrong over there...

I have never bought anything from there, and just saw that they had cheap prices... obviously you get what you pay for...

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
