I seen this damn tasty VS2 the other day and was wishing I had $70K to buy it and import it.

Then I got thinking what would this be worth on the Australian market?

I presume it wouldnt be worth as much as a NUR but it has a lot of tasty pieces!

Ideas guesstimates any1?

lol I had a client on it when it went through auction a few weeks back...

So globalauto purchased the car at an auction originally and have relisted it for sale through their dealership?

Would it fetch $80K here in Oz? I presume it would be about $72K landed here and complied?

I don't want to shock you. but that is what car dealers do.... they buy cars. at auction, or privately, then re-list them for more money. just like you are wanting to do. only you'd have a better chance of turning a profit by not buying your car retail from a car dealer.

Lol I realise that, I just wasn't sure if Iron Chef meant he seen it being auctioned by global auto or seen it being auctioned off prior to global auto purchasing the car. As it is now the price global have on it seems very reasonable which makes me wonder why iron chefs client didn't purchase the car from the auctions as it would have obviously been cheaper then what it is now!?

Im not wishing to sell it, I just started thinking what would this car be worth in Oz. It would be worth $70k at least but $8-90k is getting into NUR territory which I would presume would be more desirable then a tarted up VS2?

I really don't see even a Nur being worth $80-$90K in aus and a V-spec II is not rare or special at all. there's plenty of nice VS2s around if that's what you're specifically after. it has some nice bolt on bits no doubt but nothing serious, still standard engine etc. It might be worth $65,000 or so in the current market, or one special buyer may pay more, or you may not be able to sell it at all and end up taking $60K or less even. hard to say at the moment. but there is nothing that really sets is apart above other nice mildly modified R34 GTRs.

    • You have the option to do this. Nobody but me ever did this (go slower, I mean) Everyone seems to fall victim to "This would be a great setup for you, but for me, I need a little more power..."
    • Save yourself the headache of an alarm. Immobilizer on the signal side of the main EFI relays so it won't start is good enough. DIY killswitch is the same thing except instead of a nice passive system you need to remember to switch it on and off.
    • Yeah, the advent of canbus was supposed to cut down on wiring weight, then some bright marketing wonk says "oh, look at all these wonderful tech gadgets we can cram in here now that we have this wonderous technology" and some arsehole safety legislator says "oh, look at all the wonderful surveillance and tracking gadgets we can cram in here now that we have this wonderous technology" and some dipshit young engineer who has grown up thinking that an extra 500000 lines of code is not a problem because storage is cheap these days says "oh look at all this wonderful shit I can do to one up those dipshit arsholes over at VW" and the Karens of the world all go "oh look at all these fancy things I can do on my screen (so long as I am not driving on a bumpy road wherein touch screens immediately become the single most stupid shit idea ever shoveled into a car) and my 19 zone airconditioning keeps my sweaty fat folds a bit less damp and the windows close themselves because I'm too fat and lazy to wind them up for myself and these reversing sensors would have been great if I'd paid attention to them instead of smashing them on the bollard while I was reversing and staring fixedly forward that day I went to pick up little Charlize from ballet" and the sweaty mongoloids who say "oh this wonderful collision avoidance technology with these 45 excellent radar antennae scattered across the front of my car mean I can tailgate like a methed up tradie at full speed with no fear because the car and the 35 airbags will protect me if it all goes wrong" ...... </shallistopranting?>
    • There's a post from a member (can't recall who), went down the path of a twin scroll G30-660 and it's doing over 300kW+ AND comes on about the same as a high flow RB25DET turbo. Have your cake and eat it too in this case. TBH, if I had a 2nd chance of building my car again (i.e. someone gave me what I wanted for my shit box, but the deal was I had to re-build another R33 and keep the change) I would just pop in a stock NEO motor (with new seals, rod bearings, ARP studs, head gasket, sump, Nitto pump), get a smaller twin scroll turbo, modify the stock low mount (keep the divider in place), and make a solid 300kW on 98RON and call it a day.
