I've been wondering guys, how much would mt GTR be worth in australia?

123000km on the clock, decent paint, paint looks nice but not the best quality, the entire interior is there but both seats have a small rip on the bolsters nearest to the door and it shows its age (wear and tear on the leather parts) Full adjustable coilovers, 18'rims, nicely rolled fenders (looks really good). Rest is 100% stock.

How is this relevant to the topic? Make a new thread. Also, look at other cars that are selling that are close to your spec. Shouldn't be hard to see what the market is paying for them.

Bruh, we've been talking bout moosepower and canadian domestic market air before and you think that was on topic?

Things aside, I'm being real impatient getting my sky back so I'm rummaging through the forums to keep busy when I'm not working.

$15-$25k

Maybe more with the "external BOV" ;) 

Well f**k.

I called the tuner this morning to have some more news. His dyno is ready and everything is set for a dyno run... Except the GTR.

The oil pressure is low af. So low that the oil pressure light sometime comes on when it's idling. He doesn't want to dyno it in that state.

He's currently investigating to what causes said issue. I'm afraid I have a messed up oil pump and will need to get it replaced. Could possibly explain the oil leak I have. Should have some more news coming.

Got a bit of better news.

He's quite busy so only had time to rapidly check the car. The odds that it's the oil pump are low. The oil leak is probably from the powersteering pump or something connected to it (gasket,seal or whatever) and the crappy oil pressure is probably due to the old ass sensors acting up.

Waiting for him to get a more in depth look. Guess it's gonna sit there another 3 weeks lol. :P

Oh well. Much rather not drive my car for 2 months then risk blowing up the engine because of a faulty oil pump.

the oil pressure sender is known to go bad, luckily it is an inexpensive fix, same unit as 300ZX and should be readily available at local auto parts store.  so try that first before jumping to the conclusion that oil pump is bad.

Yes....but the oil pressure switch is a separate thing, yes?.  So for them both to indicate low pressure is not the best news.

Exactly why he wants to investigate. He's quite good with electronics, so I'm guessing he's going to test the voltage and wiring.

Put a oil pressure gauge on it and know for certain

Probably will be part of the solution, but it's the darn oil pressure switch that bothers. Does it switch on because it's based of the pressure reading from the other sensor or does it have a reading of it's own?

    • Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers    
    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
