R32 Rb25det

[sidewayssam]

hey all im in the process of picking a skyline and have found one that im pretty keen on, just wondering what you think its worth,

its an r32 with a rb25det that has recently been rebuilt with forged internals, it has a hks gt2540 turbo, fmic, pod, exhaust, spitfire coilpak, brass button clutch, 400hp fuel pump, 550cc injectors, apexi power fc, z32 afm, 3.5" xhaust, rebuilt gbox, brand new kaaz 2way lsd, gtr slotted rotors, all sorts of suspension work. they are asking 18g for it, do you think it is worth it? cheers

[-_-StRyDeR-_-]

kind of comes down to, do YOU think it is worth 18? if you like it and want it, pay it, if you dont think it is worth 18, then offer him less and be prepared to walk away with nothing.

hope its got receipts for everything

hmm well depends on the condition of the car overall and on the install etc. However i would probs put it around the 16 or 17 mark.

Depends what you think it is worth.

is 18k the price his selling it for or did you get it down to 18k ?

if 18k is the price his selling it for try to bargain a few grand off ^_^ 15k would be good =]

but it sound like this guy has spend a sh*t load of money on this car..

as said eariler check the condition paint/clutch brakes etc

because for 18k i want to pay for a pretty decent car.

Goodluck mate

hey mate,

I've got an rb25 in my r32 with almost the same mods as the person selling it....and take it from me...if he did all the work himself or since he's had the car , then ALOT of money has gone into the car. If the workmanship and the exterior of the car is in good nick - i'd say 18gs is a very fair price. The conversion alone is about 4g min, then add another 3g+ at least for the turbo setup. The motor and box have both been rebuilt, not to mention suspension and brakes. Thats a damn bargain price!!!

I know thats near impossible to get back any amount spent on any car - but 18gs for a car with that much mods is very decent providing the work is good and the car itself is in good nick.

F*kn good buy if u ask me -

I am currently having the conversion done, the mechanic told me to allow $5k all up, but he's also rebuilding the RB25 with forged pistons etc. I already have all the bolt on mods, which 85% of them are being swapped over, the rest ae going to be modified to fit I believe.

depending on who built the motor, what was done etc.

18k might be a reasonable price, it might not be.

The bottom end alone is worth 6-7k motor in/out.

If the body id clean, and it was a good build 18k would be reasonable to me.

It would be a very fast streeter... although the 2540 is a bit of rubbish turbo and i'd ensure i had 2k spare to change it to something a bit more useful

[sidewayssam]

well anyway i gought it this afternoon and have driven it round for the last four hours hahaha i got the priced nocked down a reasonable amount, it drives fines and goes hard, what kind of turbo do u suggest replacing the hks with, its currently making over 400rwhp

[R34GTFOUR]

400rwhp in a r32? that thing would be breaking traction coming onto boost in third haha

have fun with it, just learn how the car behaves before you boot the shit out of it, 400rwhp is a fair chunk of power

I dont mean to be the bearer of bad news

But with a 2540, its not making 400rwhp.

Not even in the ballpark mate. A 2540 simply isnt capable of that.

You'll be lucky if its making 300-320rwhp at best.

[stolen_s15]

Is that the white one on carsales?

Looks pretty neat, but the motor has only been rebuilt to factory specs, not forged from my understanding.

I would be willing to pay no more than 14-15k max.
