yer manual with 86500 on the clock...

mate there is people selling them for $20k+ as well

a car is what someone is willing to pay for it. redbook is a disgrace, i would never use that, it under values cars by massive amounts....

the insurance companies use that as market value, so they can screw you when it comes to claim time

I paid $10900 for my '94 R33 4 door with 68000klms on the clock, no scratches, no dents perfect engine, just complianced. Came with a touch screen head deck too!!  :(

yeah, but its a 4 door....

*hides from 4 door owner flaming

Whats wrong with a 4 door?? :P

Could have bought the 2 door he had for the same price with less klms :)

Four door was what i wanted, rare.

And 4door_Sleeper where did you get that kit and how many $$$$????

I don't why they balked at $13k.. thats perfectly possible these days with the price falling so much on them.

True.

R33s are undervalued while R32s are holding their value well.

I don't know why you have problems with the RTA.

Back in 2002 I stated mine at $12k??? Something ridiculous and they thought it was fine.

Must have been thinking about old R31s that day!

T.

4door_Sleeper where did you get that kit and how many $$$$????

Thanks GTS-TBoy

The kit is a mix of bits form Australia and New Zealand (I had lots of trouble finding anything I liked for a 4 door, and the Impul kits gave me nothing but grief) All up, fitted it probably cost my $3000

Heres another pic from a different angle

You need to pay stamp duty when you first register it.

Can you prove you paid $13k for it? Or have you imported it?  When I did my GTR recently they accepted the FOB $5K! rofl

ahh...for that . yeah i know bout that...but yeah, when i got my car the seller agreed to put $2k on the papers instead of $6500 so yeah...never got asked a question

also heard from someone on here, who i wont name, that they did it with their skyline for $5k for an R33....

so do they check into this shit? or is it safe to "alter" these figures. lol

From memory the tax is on the the GREATER of the "Purchase Price" or "Market Value", and there are penalties for declaring under the correct figure. That said I dont know if they do check, and I think most people drop the private sale rice by a few thousand.

Be reasonable (especially if then question you) and you should be OK, its not worth the hassel for a saving of under $100 (one tank of fuel)

yeah but cant u argue that you bought it off a mate etc, and he wasnt going to give it to you free, but was extremely generous and sold it to you ridiculously cheap...shit like that!

    • I certainly fall into the annoyed camp, but glad to hear that if it's happening at low boost then I'm not likely going to blow a turbo and end up with metal shards in my oil. Just feels like it prevents me from really driving it without hesitation and "peak" performance. Wonder if it's the VCAM, it did an impressive job of shifting the torque curve and faster spool, but maybe now it's "too fast" and there's too much air for how open the throttle is.  Based on some other threads, will also do some reading on synchronizing the actuators. They are the default actuators that come on the Garrett's and I would think they would be set the same coming from the factory, but if the turbos don't actually work exactly the same way at the same time as previously mentioned, it would be worth making sure the actuators are actuating together properly
    • I went down this rabbit hole before, ended up sourcing a motor from the UK (I'm in Japan) which also didn't function correctly. With the original motor, I disassembled it and reassembled it and it works somewhat, sometimes. What I could deduce from all my screwing around is that there is calibration of the gears on the inside of the motor and two ramps on the main gear which activate switches that operate the motor and move the sunroof either to retract into the roof or tilt. Where I got stuck was that, it seemed in my case that one or both of the switches that are activated by the ramp on the gear did not always activate and thus the motor did not move, causing it to sometimes not retract or tilt (apologies, I've forgotten which way it didn't work.).  Of course this part is discontinued at Nissan now, it's the same part in the S15 but no other models. I also contacted the manufacturer of the component for schematics - forgot the name, they're based in Gifu - but they declined to share the information due to being bound by an NDA, sadly. Looking through my pictures now, it seems I last had a crack at this in 2022. See, I so kindly wrote "open" and "close" next to the switches. If you figure it out, please do tell me. Those little switches, with the red buttons may need to be replaced.
    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
