so ill decide when i get back... probably not something perforamnce, ive almost had enough... a 4WD maybe? have to wait n see

Hmmm sounds like what i did....almost got a 4WD too :-)

But now i really miss my car.... wasnt anything overly fast (14.0sec), but was fun to drive and looked ok as well. So im on the hunt soon for a new car :-)

BTW Sorry this is off topic

Haha Jash - my parents tried to get me to appreciate HSV's as theyve always owned them - obviously their evil brainwashing didnt work on me haha

Back to the topic: All cars depreciate - they arent the best investment, but we all dont want to lose our money too quickly either. JimiH the fact that your R32 is quite unique to look at - u have working in your favour :P

most of the SAU vic members seem to be wanting an R32 GTR over the coming 12-18 months.. so if that is any indication get ready for an onslaught of people wanting R32 GTRs :) hell, i am even considering one next year (although a 92 or something)

i think R32GTR's will hold around high-20's low 30k's no matter how the import laws changes things.

I think we'll just wait and see. ATM I just can't justify $25K for a 15 YO R32 GTR. Yeah it's a dream car but it's still 15 YO.

As far as HSV's go a guy at work is looking at a GTS300 thingy second hand. There $93 K new and $53 a year old with 20K on the clock and 3 year warranty !

Last time I complain about depreciation.

The rule looks like its gonna change so you may be buying $15000

wreckers. R32s will become classic very fast as thay ere the only

true Godzilla.

The 300kw Commonwhores are only making 248rwhp here and

the 255kws are making 240rwhp so something fishys going on

the best 300kw went 317 with NOS- Heavy Slow Vehicals-

We got an R33GTS up to 255rwhp today @12psi, Per4manz intercooler,full exhaust,and a power up bleed valve. HSV Predator.

i might just step out of this one...every thing you've written is just a bunch of letters to me. i've read it and read it and i just don' t understand it :confused:

The Aussie distributed ones are easy to tell agreed, the inner circle of the inboard tail light does have the orange indicator in it, I know I own one and love the beast. In a town full of HSV's haven't found anyone willing to have there nose rubbed in the dirt yet.

PS Does anyone know where I can get hold of a original D/S floor matt, the whole car is dead stock bar the floor matt and I want to keep it that way.

Please let me know you guy out there in Skyline land

    • Last year I got a set of MCA street coilovers for my turbo Forester after my son hitting a concrete gutter/wall on a small bridge causing the whole drivers side suspension to get bent because the rain just made the car slide out I love them, I think they were $2400. even had a hiccup of have the wrong hub configuration (my fault) so got onto MCA and they sent the correct shock ends overnight parts from QLD, for free!  I was very impressed with their customer service and quality of the product  
    • They've had some weird failures on their brake actuators. One of them was because they added some kind of lubricant to the factory fill brake fluid that aftermarket brake fluid didn't have so it would affect the seals. Another was just mysterious, probably internal corrosion or something eating away at Prius brake actuators. Parts alone for those are a few thousand USD so not a cheap fix.

    • KYBs are typically twin tube, putting them in the lower tier of desireability. Do you just want to replace worn out ones for the lowest cost? I mean, you wouldn't just replace one end of a car, if the rears are a similar age to the fronts, then they are probably nowhere near what they should be, and likely won't be great against brand new fronts. So, to spend ~$800 on 2nd tier dampers, when you could get a decent set of MCA coilovers for <$4k.....? As to the strut tops. 1st up, the Sparesbox site specifically tells you that they are not correct for an R33. Beyond that, why do you think you need them?
    • That's not very Toyota of the Toyota!
