just like mine..except mines better :D

depends on condition really, if its mickey mouse with good paint and everything works maybe 10k-12k, if its a bit ratty maybe 6-7k..

Really depends on the condition and how much you like the car and your mate...Personally i wouldnt pay more than 10k

I paid a mate 15k for mine bout 4 years ago, its in pretty good nick with 130kms on it but I think I paid too much.

Then Old Mate spends it all on a wedding and gets divorced 6 months later ,silly bugger.. :no:

Lol, fail!

I personally wouldn't pay more than 7k tops seeing as it's automatic.. i'm fairly sure automatic gtst's sell lowish due to low demand.

Hey mate. I wouldn't wantto bad mouth your friends car as I haven't seen or driven i

but 180000km for $8k seems pretty steep evemore so cause it's auto.

I paid 9000 for mine last year from a dealer I got them down from $11 mainly cause they weren't open weekends so noone even got a chance to see the car

and all it needed was new brake pads and the disks machined and it was manual with only 87000 kms on the odometer

so if I were you I'd go no higher than $7 and only if your sure that it's been regularly serviced

if it has it's probably a better option than one with less kms as skylines are realiable it's just that some owners aren't

as long as you keep up regular service they can survive well over 200000kms hope this helps

Also is it still on the original turbo? Even If it hasn't been thrashed it might be on the way out soon

Why don't you hold on for a manual? More driver satisfaction.

Auto + Turbo = More Fuel Consumption eh?

Easier later on, to sell a manual than an auto with this type of car.

Suggestion:- PM FloydWestwood and buy his. It's just popped up F/S I think, and it's well...... Need I say?

    • 65601-05U00 is the hood latch. 62550-08U31 is the support that holds it to the radiator core support. They are all super discontinued so I don't really have any great leads on how to source this stuff.
    • GTSBoy on your suggestion on another thread I had a look at those injectors and ended up getting them because of the quality.  Got the expensive ones.  
    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
