Sparkys

I'd prefer to keep it whole but I've had a lot of interest in seperating it. People have wanted the side skirts and rear pods. What are you interested in?

PM's replied

Just so people know, it is NOT the Nissan gunmetal grey, it is a grey taken from the Lamborghini and is called Grigio avalon. It will need repainting unless for some reason you have done your 32 that colour also!

Item 1 For Sale: R32 M-Spec complete kit consisting of front bar (uncut), side skirts and rear pods. Condition: As new, unmolested, just painted in a custom gunmetal grey. Price: $400 the lot (not negotiable) Reason for sale: I was going to keep this kit as a spare in case I cracked the Origin kit on the car, but it's not really necessary for me to keep it, and I want the money more than the kit. Location: Milang, SA Postage: No postage for this, it's too big. Pickup only, but I am willing to deliver to Adelaide metro areas for free. Item 2 For Sale: Turbosmart E-Boost Street Condition: New, unused. Still in box. Price: $400 (not negotiable) Reason for sale: As above, I want the money more than the boost controller. I have a manual bleed valve I'll use if I want to run a higher boost. Location: Milang, SA Postage: $25 anywhere in Australia, pickup welcome. Contact: 0434 924 001 Pictures: The E-Boost picture is a generic picture lifted from a random google search. The item I'm selling is new but I have no pictures of it. Pictures of the bodykit are attached, it is the actual item.

Then please include me on the list. If you require my full name let me know and I'll PM my details to you. I have done a 4WD/heavy vehicle defensive driving course which included things like locking up brakes in a loaded 4WD, so it will be interesting to see the different vehicle dynamics in the 32. What should I do to the car to prepare? It has an RB25DET Neo, Brembo 33 GTR brakes with EBC Greenstuff, poly bushes all round but stock suspension and stock cooling system. Will this be sufficient? **Edit, I just noted someone else asked about cooling and the answer was that standard cooling would be enough, so please include me as a definite.

I'm pretty near finishing my 32 GTS-T (this sunday it should be driveable fingers crossed) and I bolted the seat in for the first time since I bought it one and half years ago to find that I have to have the seat leaning way, way back to stop my head from touching the roof! It's the sunroof model and I'm 6 foot 4 inches. What are my seat options? Are GTR seats any lower? Or do Recaro or Bride make any seats that drop my butt height a few inches? Any other brand of seat? Looking to buy a drivers seat so I can actually drive the thing.

I would like to be a part of this please, but I'm unsure whether my driving skill would be up to it. How advanced is advanced? I finish building my 32 this weekend, engineering is next week but it's the first rear wheel drive, turbo-charged car I've ever owned.....all my others have been full time 4WD fishing cars or front wheel drive econo-boxes......am I out of my depth? I'm sure the car would cope, but want to be sure I'm not holding up other people with my inexperience! Although I have had my motorbike licence for 10 years and have got a bit of experience on them.........what think ye?

Genuine. I don't buy fake stuff, everything on the car is genuine if the brand is listed. Genuine Origin kit, genuine Volks, genuine Brembo's, genuine Blitz cooler, HKS filter, clear indicators from Japan etc. The only non-brand parts I have on the car are the rear strut brace and the wheel nuts. The wheel nuts are from Autobarn, I got some japanese nuts from JJR but they weren't slim enough to fit in the Volk's holes so got some from Autobarn as a temporary stop gap till I can get some proper Rays ones. Even the extended wheel studs are genuine Nismo! BTW, if you're looking at the photo's of the rims and thinking there's something that doesn't look genuine about them, you have perceptive eyes. They look slightly different coz the paint had a few scratches when they arrived so I got the centres dipped and powder coated in as close a colour as I could get to the original silver, but I couldn't find anyone to machine away the centre paint like the genuine Volks. I also got some new wheel stickers made up (the bits that say Volk Racing on the spokes), but the rest of the stickers and markings inside are all intact.

Thanks Damien, I'll file that information away. I have it booked in to get the windows tinted tomorrow, then installed on the 18th of April. Engineering tests will take place the following week if I can get the time off work to take it down, then installation of the E-Boost and a brief check over by someone to verify everything has been done correctly.....then I'll drive it for two weeks to actually experience the car I've been building for over a year and a half, then it's up for sale. So if all goes according to plan it will be on the market around the beginning of May. I'll include a full list of what's actually been done to it when the for sale thread is started. There's a fair bit I haven't mentioned such as the sound system details, custom fibreglass pods for the tweeters painted same as the car, etc etc. Thank you all for your input.

Here's some pictures The first few are how I bought the car, then there's a couple of the boot which I welded up the spoiler holes and show the guide coat etc. Then some of the M-Spec kit being done, then a photo of the car with the M-Spec kit on one with flash and one without flash (unpolished from painting). At this point in time I decided to fit a bodykit and bigger rims, so I rolled the guards and bought and painted an Origin kit. Then there's a couple of photo's of the car as it is in my shed now, just starting to polish it after paint so it will have a good gloss in a few weeks. Couple of photo's of the wheels/brakes too. Sorry about the poor photo quality though, I'm no photographer and half of them are off my phone and the car is dusty as anything.

Heh, babies take up too much time. Trying to get onto it but barely have time to check the net at all, let alone upload pics. Will try to get onto it.

Hey guys, thanks for your input. I will put up some pictures if you like, I'll resize them and do it tonight. DSTROY, thanks for the hint, I'm sorted with Regency/Inspections. I had to apply using the form Craig132 mentioned, then they notified me of the path I have to take, which is get an emissions test, noise test and brake test by an engineer. They have provided me with the necessary forms for this. Then I need to get Regency to verify the engine number and then it's all legal. vspek, I will put up some pictures soon. It looks really nice, the paint is kinda dark grey with almost a purple tint in the shadows, but then a really popping bright silver in the light. I got the paint through Murray Bridge Paint and Decorator Centre, I just used acrylic lacquer and I did it all myself. I actually painted the car five times, trying out different shades of grey before I settled on the one I have now (yes I am completely pedantic and obsessive about my cars). Thanks all.

Hi all. I've been building an R32 skyline up for over a year, I bought it as a shell and have done the following to it. Resprayed in Lamborghini Grigio avalon (a darkish grey metallic), and it's the sunroof model Fitted an Origin Streamline bodykit (full kit) Have an M-Spec kit painted up in same colour (full kit) Fitted an RB25DET Neo + R34 gearbox/clutch etc. The motor has done 64,000km and runs on the stock R34 ECU. Put R33 GTR Brembo brakes front and rear, with new rotors on the rear, new brake pads all round Got Volk GT-C rims with near new tires, 18 on the back 17 on the front Fitted a Blitz return flow intercooler Strut braces front and rear It is nearly finished, just requires the windows to be put in, new quarter panel windows to be bought and a wheel alignment. I've applied for and received approval for the engine conversion but it needs to have an emissions and noise test before final registration with the new motor can be given (however, it is currently still registered with the original RB20). My problem is that my wife and I had our first child two weeks ago and she's now not working, so I can't afford to finish the car off and drive it like I wanted to. I may have to sell it as it is. What sort of value would I be looking at if I sold it as it is?

Thanks mate for the info about the quarter windows. I think I'm sorted, got a mate who has some contacts Problem solved.

Really really need these ASAP. Car just waiting on these to be finished.

erins PM'd Otherwise bump

Chasing some indicators for an R32 GTS-T, not the orange type but the clear type with orange globes. Please reply in this thread with pictures and price.

Chasing some bits to finish putting the 32 back together (bought it as a shell so a fair bit is missing). Need the following bits and all parts are off the R32 coupe: -Rubber trims from around the quarter panel windows, both sides -Metal clips from around the front windscreen (all clips) -Plastic clips that sit at the bottom of the front windscreen to hold the window up -Metal clips from around the back window (all clips) Not sure about the following being reusable or not? Someone might be able to help me out here -Rubber trims from around the front and rear windows Please let me know in this thread if you've got something and how much you want for it. Willing to drive to Adelaide to pick up stuff.

Sold

I've taken some pics, been meaning to post them up (sorry chuckie!) but keep leaving the camera at home. Will get onto it, but they're just normal 32 m-spec brakes, four pot front, two pot rear etc.

A lot of good crash repairers have a special 'spectrum analyzer' for want of a better word that actually looks at the specific colour spectrums being reflected off the paint and can tint up new paint exactly the same. Ask them if they can just write down the paint tint codes for you for a few bucks? Worth a try

Not really interested in separating

Price drop to $200 the lot

I upgraded my R32 brakes to R33 GTR Brembo's, so obviously I don't need the standard brakes. So for sale is the calipers, pads and disks (all front and rear), standard Nissan M-Spec stuff. All rotors require machining. Pads are good, bout half left. Two brake lines from the rear calipers are missing (I flogged them to use with the Brembo's ) Price $350 the lot. PM me or 0434 924 001 Location: Milang, SA. Willing to drive to Adelaide to deliver coz Milang's a hole and about an hour from town.

Sold.
