R32 heater core similarities Hi all, heater core is stuffed. Just wondering if any of the other skylines share the same heater core. Seems it's hard to get your hands on a r32 heater core

Hey guys. I recently bought a R34 GTT. It didn’t have a working aircon or heater. The aircon had lost all its gas and the heater was bypassed, I’m assuming because the Heater Core was leaking. I just got a heap of the o rings in the aircon replaced and the system re-gassed and it’s now nice and cold. Pretty keen to get the heater working too. The guy as the shop doesn’t wanna touch the heating side of it cos apparently it’s to big a job and reckons it’s gonna cost me a fortune in parts and labour. $500 part from Nissan for the heater core and heaps of labour hours taking the whole dash out and back in. Hadn’t done one before either. Has anyone got any experience in replacing the Heater Core on a R34? If anyone has a guide to doing this on a R34 I might give it a go. I saw a threat about not having to take the dash out on a R33. Is that the case on the R34 also? Or if anyone has a recommendation on a shop that specialises in Skylines that would be great?! Thanks

I have for sale a great condition heater core pulled from a '89 R32 GTST. I have been told R33 GTST cores are the same dimensions but you will need to confirm this yourself before buying. There are a few slightly bent fins as would be expected with a used item but nothing that can't be fixed yourself if you're concerned. The worst is along the edges which is unavoidable as there is only foam to protect the fins there. Impact to performance of core would be minimal. Price is $100 firm for heater core and $20 for pipes, can sell separately. Postage at buyers expense, it will cost you whatever it costs me.
