I am in the market for another GTR and have noticed that prices have gone up on R33 GTR's.

What should I suspect to pay for a MNP Series 3 R33 GTR, $25k-$30k?

12-18 months ago, you could pick one up for high teens....

I was originally looking at R34 GTR's but prices look like they have gone through the roof after looking at the Japan Auctions!!

$30k too expensive for a 20 year old car? A neat vn ss these days is $15k lol

Agreed.

Not even mentioning that a brand new 33 GTR would have been a $120k+ car when new.

$30k would be a steal for a well looked after late model 33.

Prices on R33 GTrs seems to have been slowly rising. having a look on gumtree and carsales, you will be paying about 23-25k for a good S1 and getting upwards of 26-28 for a S3, upwards of that for limited edition ones like my LM in the pic (thanks James 10 4 )

I wouldn't pay anything less than that as they are a time bomb or will be spending heaps to get it back up to a good quality car.

And someone buy my MP Gtr

I agree, R32's seem to have skyrocketed the last few years coincidentally with similar timings to the US now being able to import them.

Also, I guess 20-25 years is the age when a car goes from being a 'dorky car from a few years ago' to a relative classic. If it's stood the test of time and is still as popular as what the GT-R's are, then they're destined to go up in price.

Hi Guys........ I've kept a note of how many R32 GTR's have been for sale on Carsales/Carpoint over the last few years. Please note this does not include other avenues such as Gumtree etc. Just this one medium........Australia wide including all models of GT-R's. (Standard, V-spec I and II's, Nismos and N1's).

  • On January 1 2012 - 66
  • On January 1 2013 - 42
  • On January 1 2014 - 43
  • On January 1 2015 - 40
  • On January 1 2016 - 16

You can see the big drop during 2012 and a massive drop during 2015.

The same thing will happen with 33's and 34's but bare in mind, they made a hell of a lot less cars in those 2 models than 32's.......

Bob.

that's a huge drop isn't it,

I think there is about 4 r33 GTRs on carsales all 25k and above and maybe 6 on gumtree but some of them may have been sold or are advertised on carsales as well.

I've had some interest from people over east on my MP GTR so they are definitely low in numbers.

    • You're making my point for me. 95 is not "premium". It is a "slightly higher octane" version of the basic 91 product. The premium product that they want people to buy (for all the venal corporate reasons of making more profit, and all the possibly specious reasons of it being a "better" fuel with nicer additive packages) is the 98 octane stuff. 95 is the classic middle child. No-one wants it. No-one cares about it. It is just there, occupying a space in the product hierarchy.
    • 98 and 95 have to meet the same national fuel standards beside the actual RON.  91 has lower standards (which are quite poor really), so 95 is certainly not 91 with some octane booster. It would be an easier argument to claim 98 is just 95 with some octane boosters. Also RON doesn't specify 'quality' in any sense, only the octane number.  Anything different retailers decide or not decide to add to their 95 or 98 is arbitrary and not defined by the RON figure.
    • Anyone know alternatives to powerplus tungsten? Can't find an alternative online. 
    • 95 is just a scam outright. 98 is the real "premium" with all the best detergents and other additive packages, and at least historically, used to be more dense also. 95 is just 91 bargain basement shit with a little extra octane rating. Of course, there's 91 and there's 91 also. I always (back in the 90s early 2000s) refused to put fuel in from supermarket related fuel chains on the basis that it was nasty half arsed shit imported from Indonesia. Nowadays, I suspect that there is little difference between the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the "bargain" chains and the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the big brands, given that most of it is coming from the same SEAsian refineries. Anyway - if there's still anything to that logic, then it would apply to 95 also. 98 is only made in decent refineries and, as I said, is usually the "premium" fuel, both in terms of octane rating and "use this because it's good for your engine because it's got the unicorn jizz in it!".
    • Yeah since those first 2 replies I actually went and put some 98 in it and tbf it's already doing much better than the 95 (which is weird and makes my inner tinfoil hat wearer think the 95 was a crap batch), getting 8ish around town. Again, wonder if it takes a while to stabilize if the fuel is changed a couple of times. I swear cars used to just either run "well" or "s**t* in my 20s, none of this fuel optimisation business haha
