The price is reasonable for somebody who wants to sell quickly, all the GT-Rs on carsales are priced too high.

The only movement I have seen lately was an SA registered 09 which was advertised at $126k and had gone through a few price drops.

44,000kms with some wear showing on the seat side bolsters? Certainly sounds genuine and could be a great buy!

Completely agree - all the ones listed for 140K or so are simply not selling, but I know of at least 3 that sold for mid 120K with 10,000kms or around there, so this price is pretty spot on for a person that wants to sell.

Rego says it expires in March 2011 - but I thought the early ones were only delivered in May 2009 - could it be possible this is one of the early Nissan Aust cars. Regardless, 44,000kms in 18months lets say is a lot, but not excessive - its only around 570kms per week, so its just your regualrly driven daily driver.

Depreciation from 162-165K to 105K is also pretty normal.

Shame its not silver or gunmetal.

This makes one wonder if a few more of these will ultimatley lead to values intersecting with the R34 GT-R VS-II NUR.

This one has already come down to below the value of the N1 R34 GT-R. :P

For sure, just look at the Japan prices for the Nur and compared to R35's you'll see that Nur will be the future classic...................damn, I knew it.

it would have to be a long distance commuter car. in 12 months that's over 3,500 kms a week, which is over 500kms a day 7 days a week! or over 700kms a day 5 days a week. that would be impossible to do in just short 5km-10km trips unless the bloke was a courier... lol.

damnn, does he just hop in and forrest gump that sh!t down to NSW daily? :P

Hmmm. . . someones needs to go back to school

12 months (52weeks) x 3500 kms a week equals 182,000km in a year. . .not 44,000km :P

Less beer Beer Baron :D

846.153846km per week.

169.230769km per day 5days per week. Work is 75km away? allow for shops etc. or work is 50km away, and allow for weekends.

Or call it a drive to a holiday house over the weekend and a couple of drives to work? Not many kms for a year...

I dont remember them having a black one

From memory they had a GMG and a red one

EDIT: Maybe the red was another GMG. Too long ago

there's more than one supercar club in oz :D

I doubt its from the Supercar Club, they only offered a limited number of km's per year on each type of membership so I doubt it would of racked up 44k in 12 months.On a slightly different not does anyone have 105k I could borrow interest free for say the next 20 years :D

Those cars had the k's going wild!

The average each year was around 40000k's (from the horses mouth) so its quite possible.

Honestly, i think 105k is a reasonable asking price and have no doubt it will sell reasonably fast at that...

44k on the clock does not concern me at all, i do about that per year with work in my car...

hence i turn it over every 18 months to 24 months...

my SS I sold with 78k on the clock, the car before that with 67k...

the new car i picked up eariler this year already has 26k on it...

I never leave south east Qld either... Some days I can do 150km easily and not leave Brisbane...

I would have no hassles buying this GTR, in fact if I was buying again now id be looking at it...

44000km in one year! I wish I got to drive my car that much!

Be interesting to see how nice it drives compared to a normal low kay example.

Mine is nearly 3 years old now with barely 14000km on it.

Not exactly my favourite car for a daily drive/commuter.

Either that or this particular GTR has done LOTS of dyno work!!!

Not the best colour either in my opinion........

I thought about this thread yesterday, so i reset my odometer...

It was a heavy day on the road for me yesterday, I did 370km and never left Brisbane...

So as I said eariler 44k in just over a year is easily done if in my line of work...

GTR may not be the most suitable car tho... :D

lol, yeah me not count so good!!! it was 3500kms a MONTH not a week. somehow I did 44,000 / 12 and skipped straight to weeks... :blush:

funky could be right it could be a ex prestige car club car. they do rack up a fair few kms...

Will the new owner reveal why the price was so low to stop all this speculation ( asuming he is a forum member) ?

btw congrats to a beaut car!!!!!

What's "so low" about $105,000 +SD for an 18month old car with 44,000kms on the odo, that originally cost $165,000 on the road - it seems spot on. How much would you pay for it mate, 155K hehehe. Owner clearly wanted it sold, he wasn't keen leaving it on carsales for 12months like some of the people advertising their cars on carsales.

Agree completely. I have been following the prices on carsales all year in anticipation of eventually selling my Evo X and moving on to an R35, and many of the cars have been on there for a long time - eg. the white SA car mentioned in the this thread had been on there for as long as I've been watching.

Maybe the fact that it sold in an instant might allude to why the price was perceived as "so low"?

    • So we have most the interior back in, and for the first time with one OEM speaker hooked up. The 31 is running, driving and now tunes!!! Hahaha yet another step for the sub that sat 10m under for two weeks!!! unbelievable really 👌 lots of love work and not giving up on her. Seen so many youngsters part way less, and in way better condition. I’m stubborn, thinking another problem is just a hurdle to overcome, One at a time. IMG_9277.mov
    • That is correct. I'm using a modified ABS ring and a ZF speed sensor on my rear diff for speed input. I'm running a Haltech ecu. 
    • Been busy with the newborn. We originally thought we were going to go for a third, but we're good with two lol. He's starting to actually sleep now so I've had some energy to work on the car. It's been parked away in the garage since late November due to winter.  I went ahead and redid all my head oil drains. I originally had my front and rear head drain going into the same pipe but have since split them up. I also added an Ethanol content sensor to get ready to run E85 this summer. Tossed it on my return line. Sensor sits nicely under my intake manifold.    I also have a lot of parts that came in for my rear end. I'll be swapping over to a 3.3 final drive and doing the GK teck anti squat mod. While the rear subframe is off, I'll also change every bushing. We're planning on buying another house soon with the condition that I get at a minimum a 2 door garage, so I'll wait to have more room for this. Now onto the strange things that recently happened... After changing the lower rad hose (It had been sitting in my cabinet for well over a year and was the last hose I had to replace), I let the car idle in the garage to bleed my coolant. After running for a few minutes, it started missing. Got much worst within a minute or two and then stalled and would not restart. My crank sensor decided to crap itself. No damage, no explanation, just died. I went ahead and replaced it with another ZF sensor but the heavier duty stainless model with a shield. Tossed that in and started right up. Has anyone else seen this? I hate when things fail without cause. Luckily this was a blessing in disguise... This lead me to recheck my timing. It seems I may have had a beer or two the last time I had set my TDC angle as I was off exactly 5 degrees... I miscounted a line haha. I was running 5 degrees less then commanded. It's a little embarrassing but helps explain why my dyno operator seemed to think I should be making more then 478rwkws.        
    • Sharing results from recent Liberty Walk R35 GTR, since they are still considered as somesort of a V36 Skyline. We do them turbos too. This are high flowed SS-1 models with ball bearing conversion done.  Car have managed to pull 485awkws @ 20Psi so far pushing limitations of factory built engine. The build list for R35 GTR enthusiasts as follow : HyperGear high flowed stock turbos in SS1 (G25-660 specs) Custom titanium intake pipes. Vspec performance titanium front pipes. Vspec performance 4" titanium exhaust. Upgrade fuel pumps. 1200cc injectors. Ignition coilpacks Hks intake plenum. Hks intercooler piping. Greddy intercooler. Greddy bovs. Top-secret coolant reservoir. Emtron ecu. Straight E85. Built gear box.  
    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
