That. Is. Wicked. Very nice!!!

Awesome! Thanks for the tips, I'll check those places out. Much appreciated.

Hey Troops, hopefully this is ok to put in this section. I have had a look around the forums and haven't really found much information on buying New Old Stock etc for a rebuild/restoration/replacement job for skylines. I came across the windscreen rubber thread indicating Clark Rubber might do a replacement strip etc, but not much else... I have built a number of streety/cruisey type older Commodores in my time, and I'd ring up Rare Spares and say "I need a genuine horn mounting bolt for a 1983 VH SLE" and they'd have one in stock. Not so much for Nissans though?? So... Where do you buy your replacement parts? I am looking to do a back to metal respray on my 32 GTR, cutting out some rust and just tidying it up. Nothing too crazy as it will be mainly used on the track, but still want it to look tidy. I'm going to need windscreen rubbers, door rubbers, some trim pieces, just fiddly little items that I would prefer to replace with new / new-old stock, rather than pilfer from a wreck. I'm in Sydney, but will pay postage from interstate / international if it's for the right part at the right price. Cheers,

I hope to see Dan do well at Red Bull, but the Sebastian domination is getting tiresome. I'm happy for Red Bull to continue winning, but I would like to see him actually have to work for it. Someone challenge him the whole way, rather than watch him streak away by lap 3 and not be seen again until the second to last. Looking forward to seeing how the turbo engines go. Just have to wait and see I guess!

Spotted thisarvo at Mulgoa Road Penrith - Red R33 GTST (I think?) all kitted up, spoiler, roll cage, CHVRLX numberplates.

Congrats on the purchase mate, any pics? Are you going to do a build thread for it? I'm interested to see the progress and what you make of it compared to the V35 etc.

Thanks, I'll have a look into them too!

Thanks mate, on the spec sheet they gave me just indicates "tail shaft needs replacing" so I assume they've had a look and determined that the whole thing needs to be swapped. They were pretty good, helping me out with advice, rather than just trying to make a sale, so I tend to just go with what they say. I'll make some more enquiries though about the uni joints and yokes etc. Thanks,

Anyone? :-(

G'day, Had JEM go over my R32 GTR a few weeks ago just to assess what I can do to it, what it needs what I should change etc. One of the few things on the list was to replace the tail shaft due to it being "pretty well flogged" . I plan to use the car for some track work, so I am wondering what my best option is? Buying a second hand one seems risky, but I'm not sure where to find a new / replacement. Any ideas? Tips? Thanks, Matt.

I view the forum from my ipad and it NEVER remembers me. When I close the browser, an hour or so later if I return I will have to log in again. I use various other forums that I don't have this issue with. In the scheme of things, it's not a huge hassle, just noteworthy,

Hot!

There are some gorgeous GTRs in this thread. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks. Unfortunately the original motor had a fatal failure and couldn't be rebuilt, so it now has an R33 motor with R34 turbos. Runs a Haltec computer and a few other smaller mods, but nothing too serious. Last dynod at 240kw, so it's enough for me at the moment. I'm looking to do some track work in it, so brakes and suspension are first on the list.

Newbie here, here's my R32 GTR

https://www.eta.co.uk/2012/01/18/diy-heads-up-speedo-for-1-49/ Something like this, perhaps?

I may be wrong, but the unit on the dash looks like one of those digital reflector speedos that project a digital image of your speed onto the windscreen.

Cheers! Like lightning, you are!

Good afternoon all, Would someone please run this VIN through for me? BNR32002777

I'm looking forward to seeing the difference between the two. From driving the GTRs I have taken on test drives, I can already see that the SS has got much longer legs at top end, but the GTR seems to get up and boogie a little quicker. I'll have both cars for a period of time, so it'll be good to do a proper comparison.

That's all I need to hear!

Hi Humbla, thanks! The robbo cruise? Is that the one on 15/9? I think I saw something on here about that, I'll hopefully have my GTR by then, so I may just come along. Thanks again.
