If Your Cars Not For Sale, How Much $ Would It Take You To Sell?


Recommended Posts

Definately agree it's an emotional issue. I love my skyline and the only reason I'll be selling it is to upgrade. Therefore I'd want enough to go near buying a R34 GTR before I'd let it go :)

So in other words I'll be keeping it until I save enough for the GTR!

enough to be able to go out and buy another one and do all the same mods to it, although in the case of the missus pulsar, i think it would probably take between 20k (enough to buy a very nice 180sx) and 80k or so, enough to buy an evo 10, LOL.

This thread is useless without pics.

If I were to sell...which I am not I would put mine on the market for $25000.

gotta be realistic with these things. i think a main reason for selling is the thing starts costing you through your teeth to maintain/up keep. highly modified ones are the real money pits. the 97 GTR series III is a glamour GTR. they look unreal. no wonder you were offered money on the spot.

hey guys and girls,

yesterday i was waiting in the car park while my my girlfriend was doing the shopping and i was approached by a gentleman probably in his mid 40's named john patterson. (if your on here mate - "g'day to you young fella!" haha).

anyway, john advised he couldnt help but notice my car and advised "it is the cleanest, all original, unmolestered GTR i have ever seen". john then continued to speak and offered me $33,000 for my car that afternoon. an offer which i refused. his offer than turned to $34,000 and then to $35,500. these offers which were also refused. :ermm: john left on good terms in his black 7 series beamer leaving me his number if i was to change my mind.

my car is not for sale, it took me too long to find her. and i only know of one other duplicate which is sitting in the nissan gallery. but it got me thinking - if your cars not for sale, what sort of money would it take for YOU to give in and sell?

cheers! :)

So now that you have decided you want to sell her, why not call the guy and say 40g's and she's yours? :down:

was my first instinct, called him back the day i started thinking about it and he had already purchased another car so didnt have the funds. he was even more depressed then i was :down:

but i go up and down with it - sometimes i just want to sell it and get a bayside blue 34 GTR, but then i everytime i drive it and think of all the hard work, money and effort i have put into making it what it is - i dotn want to have to start all over again.

had someone ask me at the traffic lights if it was for sale - had someone leave a note on my car with a mobile asking if it was for sale...

just don't know if i could, like KR4-GTR i have a rare Skyline, well rare in terms of modifications (believe to be the only genuine East Bear kitted GT-T in country) so to me that makes it a bit special, but to someone who doesn't know about it, it's going to mean squat...

soooo, sooo tempted by a R34 GTR but like others, when you have poured $$ and time/effort into your car, it's hard to move on, even if it's an upgrade. Although, with my car at 290rwkw, i'd have to play with the GTR a bit to at least start at the same point :starwars:

PSI_GTSII, what a stunning car mate!!! Got anymore pics of the interior??

    • People still have Skylines? I thought they're non-existent now. 
    • 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
