Seriously, who gives a shit?

If you dont like it, or think its overpriced, dont buy it and dont post on here bitching about it!

Chances are the owner has been told a bunch of garbage about what mods the car apparently has when he imported it, and thus hes listing all the same apparent mods now that hes selling it.

ie. I wasnt aware that HKS made alternators >_<

It's his car, he can ask what he wants for it.

If someone wants it badly enough, they'll pay the asking price.

You can pick up a Type M for under $10,000 ...but when you add the cost of the kit parts, suspension bits, mags, stereo, re-spray and all the other things that have been done (or said to have been done) to the vehicle, it's not a totally outrageous asking price, however, the opening line of:

This is a great price for a head turner that needs no work!!!
is a bit of a stretch.... it obviously needs some work.

It mentions that there's damage to the paintwork, the wing has been removed which means the bootlid has holes in it (unless it was stuck on with velcro) and would need repairing or replacing and a respray, so those sorts of things need to be taken into account, and can be used as bargaining chips to try and get the price down a bit.

As everyone else has said, if you don't want it, keep looking.

If you want it, let the buyer know what you're willing to pay, (reminding them that X,Y & Z needs to be done to the vehicle before you'd be happy to pay X amount) and you can be first in line if/when the price drops low enough.

If he's marketing the car towards people who want a vehicle that has scratches and holes in it, then the car's perfect and needs no work.

Obviously this guys has spent a bit on this car such as the paint work, and gtr parts.

The paint job dosent seem to looks like one of those dodgy jobs.

i think he might be exaggerating on the work that has being done , i donno maybe grab more interests on the car but he shouldnt add parts he doosent have on carsales stating he has it if you done the work show the receipts .

I think the car is worth that much money.

Custom paint

body kit

plenty of good mods

rebuilt engine

etc etc...

People expect too much these days.

Fair enough you can get type m r32s for $10k, but it would be a piece of shit.

Even a $12k one will need some work

how do u kknow its got a rebuilt engine, no receipts to prove it plus just pistons isnt what id class as a rebuild...

if hes bullshitted that much already as u have said, and has listed parts that he doesnt have, that would be enough to turn me away for good

if u look hard enough u can find a rough GTR for that price.....

or a R33 GTS25t with same mods. Overpriced imo......

17800 for a local GTR hahah yeh and then add a another couple of grand fixing it up problems should of bought the clean one that has being maintained for 20.

I surly wouldnt touch it till i do some intensive inspection on the car.

I have personally seen people purchasing cheap R32 Gtr overseas and locally and bascially theres problems after problems a few of them engine needed to be rebuild, dont get me wrong i love gtrs they are very well build but if the pervious owners didnt treat and maintain them probabaly then theres gonna be big problems.

I seen really cheap ones that go for sale in Japan, they seem like have just being molested its shocking some of the conditions they are in, but without saying im seen very clean nice looking ones that looks like it just came out of the factory and are always more expensive.

    • Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
    • They do that at random every now and then, with almost no detectable cause. Mine has done it a couple of times (over 25 years!!). Never worked out why.
    • I don't post on here and have been lurking for some time now. Many of the topics have helped me out more times than i can count. I was racing yesterday (11/9) and blew a front right CV shaft. I have spares so I popped a new one in. A thread i read previously said to check the engine mounts if you blow a front CV. Upon inspection, the front right mount was completely separated from the upper plate. This discovery saved me time and money, because i would have blown another CV if i went back out. Just wanted to thank you guys and wish everyone luck with with their builds. (Now if we could only come up with a solution for my power steering belt flying off after hitting the rev limiter, lol)
    • Either way he still need those style of spacer to go into the manifold because the photo he currently has is not going to work 
    • You can just get the injector bosses, which allows top feeds to fit. He can use the same injectors without issue, like these (another option): https://rocketindustries.com.au/af59-2210-rb25-fuel-injector-inserts     The Racework ones look a bit better: https://www.nzefi.com/product/raceworks-lower-injector-mounting-boss-kit-for-r33-rb25det-s14-s15-sr20det/   You could also just get a similar kit like the Radium one by Plazmaman: https://plazmaman.com/product/nissan-rb25det-r33-billet-fuel-rail/?srsltid=AfmBOoogfYq49X0fu2Wdbf8yOf6zt9egyPAif_gn3Qr3G8hzAphhTgOkO70
