China getting in on the action, oh dear... (for buyers). Good news for current owners though lel

I'd rather they stay out of our housing market, but don't mind them snatching up our cars. That being said...I thought the Chinese weren't the biggest fans of Japanese or Japanese paraphernalia :O

Yep, hoping prices plateau and come back down to a reasonable price for the condition. Between entering GTR ownership and first home ownership is seemingly equally as unrealistic for me right now

I managed to achieve both at once...but it hasn't been easy haha. One definitely affected the other. Also lamenting the days when I only had to pay one rego/insurance :(

I'm not a lover of why the Communist Chinese buy these things.
* Many are materialistic
* Many buy for investment or for collection value, rather than race them
* Many just want to deprive others (esp in USA) from having things
* Many are so power hungry that they want to win a WWIII by stealth - or use N Korea as collateral damage, whilst still supplying N Korea with coal, gas and oil
* Many see themselves as better than other races ie nationally narcissistic and bigoted

I have a much greater respect for the ROC aka Taiwan

I guess with my DNA, I'm permitted to say these things.
I see many Chinese lined up at ATMs at Casinos and it's pathetic

I'm 1/8th Chinese so I guess 12% of my time can be spent self loathing the modern practices of my ancestry :P

Problem is, being such materially driven creatures ourselves, everyone else is happy to sell to the Chinese for short term material gain over long term security...including our own government.

Have noticed a number of price drops on carsales in the last couple of days. The blue Nur has is down to 199 from 218 and the purple R33 down to 55 from 65 I think? Plus a few 32s down into the 30s and a few 34's under 80 now

allot of the unsold 32s are p.igs though. jumped on the price hike trend trying to make a buck. the nice ones are quite often still in the stratosphere.

 

also guys, are we really setting the word pig.s to switch to cops? im guessing thats funny these days?

Price of that blue nur has gone up and down like a yoyo. Was initially 188k. Would've been sold if it was a solid car. The other blue nur with white te37 from Carlingford, Syd sold reasonably quick. The asking was 200k.

This guy obviously knows what he's talking about  :4_joy::4_joy::4_joy::4_joy:

Genuine high quality GTR will always get good $ - might take a bit longer to sell - but it will always sell.

    • It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂
    • Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?
    • Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges. 
    • I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.
    • Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
