the 89 model cars shouldnt really bring the price of the 92s and 93s down too much. just because "my mates mate got an 89 for 7grand" it doesnt mean a 92 is worth less.

example: all cars still have a decent price difference between age of cars within the same model. as we have seen with people trying to onsell their 89 cars, most people are asking around 13-15 (i guess everyone who has imported a car knows about the extra costs incurred to get a fresh import up to a good standard). so that means that a clean 92 or 93 with the usual extras should be more like 16-17.

yes it is more than some 33s, but there are people who are willing to pay it.

i think 89 and lack of being able to import 92, 93 models, etc for nearly 12 months have pushed the prices *up*

you used to quite easily get a good r32 gts-t for around $12-13k.. now that is almost bargain basement.

r33 are still everywhere as well these days, pushing the price of them down in general.

Looking at one with $20k on it.

Has AM Turbo, SAFC, Full Apexi zorst, GTR Bonnet & Front Bar, FMIC, Cam Gears, CAI, CD Stacker, Nice wheels, Exterior very clean as is interior, 140,000 (will check if rebuilt and by whom) - could actually be a 'real' km reading!

Need to get more details though - waiting for him to get back to me.

nismo_boy - whats wrong with the 89' skylines??

Not so much what’s “wrong” with the 1989 R32’s, its just then general bandwagon kiddies who read the Risbey and J-spec list’s, and see the cheap and nasty R32’s with the $9k - $12k price tag, yet they fail to take into account the what if coast’s if something were too go wrong, as with most older cars they need all work. Not the case with all… But you can see where I’m coming from.. In saying that though, I know even the newer one's can, and will do need work ect ect.

I am trying to buy a 93 R32 GTS-t in Japan at the moment and like all cars shitters are cheap, clean auto's are mid priced and a manual with under 100,000 in the right colour with no accidet repair are up their 350,000 yen plus.

It is like everything in life if you think the price is fair and you can afford buy it.

I agree with some of you other guys, it's not the year 89-93etc it's current condition of the car overall.

I would pay just as much for a 89 as 93 if the condition and mods were good. Afterall it's the same car.

Wouldn't waste your time with cheap and nasty anything under 10K (local or imported) much better off getting good clean car and spending a few extra grand.

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
