Forgive me but whats it worth?

Well I havent had my 32GTR long and its bringing me bad luck. The latest one is the rear turbo going.

Project Jinx

Here is the car I was wondering what its worth as a non runner as I am not sure I want to spend any more money on her. I want to go back to an Evo.

realy sorry t hear of your bad luck mate and feel for you going to thedocks after waiting all that time to find that was your dream car

your best bet would be to speak to ron and ask him but i doubt you would get much if it has a blown back turbo..

there can be other problems after a turbo blows so any potential buyer may only be willing to pay a few thousand..

hope it works out for you.

I've had better luck with skylines than evos personally. Any car like this is gonna break your wallet, any car in general can to be fair!

Stick with the Gtr mate, seriously. They're so much more of an event to drive than an evo or any 4 banger. Especially with the 500-600bhp they're designed for.

Look after the old girl, they're getting rarer and rarer, a future classic for sure

Jesus as per the other thread no its not from new era. Not sure if people got that impression but it wasn't.
And it went to Ron as a friend of mine in the past had a 32 and couldn't recommend Ron highly enough.

Think I am going to sell it. Skyline ownership isn't for me. So I'm open to sensible offers before I make a real effort to sell.

Such a shame, thought it was an amazing saving of a car when I saw it post respray and fixing up - hope it doesnt go on to being broken for spares...

Would it not be best to replace the turbo and re-evaluate the situation from there?
