i had a car accident, and i got paid out from my insurance. So are these puppies any good? are they in the same class as WRX. if i buy one im finking of doing a RB25DET engine conversion. i also used to own a VL Turbo before my STi. nice cars ;)

they are ok they are basically a gtr with an rb20 instead of rb26. Check out just car insurance they are pretty reasonable with prices for performance cars. Im 18 and only paying 2100 a year on a r33 gts-t. So its worth looking into for a gtr unless you have a really shitty driver history?

hmm so what does insurance cost on R32 GTR's?? 2-4K?.. do any of you guys know a site where i can get all the details (engine/gearbox/1/4times etccc) on the R32 GTS-4. Ive heard that the GTS-4 uses the same gearbox and 4wd system as the R32 GTR

Like said above; the 2L will be pretty sluggish. Mate of mine bought one, and gave me a drive. It had the usual mods, but it was pretty laggy and slow. Handled like a dream though, and he did some wicked stuff on skidpan days.

He has an R32 GTR now, and there's absolutely nothing that it's missing. Goes like the clappers, and it's stock!

Call Just Car, and get a quote. I'm sure it's not going to be 9K. A quote for HALF of that would make me frown!

:D dam I was told by them that they wouldn't insure anyone under 21 for turbos, unless you are a nominated driver?

i can afford a GTR R32 or R33, but they cost to much to run and the insurancee they just rape you! i was paying 4k for the insurance the STi

And you think a different Skyline coupe, with a turbo engine conversion no less, is somehow going to be significantly cheaper?

How much do you think insurance on an Impreza GX would be after you did an EJ20T conversion on it? Or your running costs?

Be a man. If you want a 4WD turbo Skyline and you can afford it, get a GT-R. Don't arse about.

i'll just say. having a 32 gtr and gtst, i can tell you it is very hard to get decent power out of a 32 gtst. if your happy with 200 kw at the wheels go the gtst, if you are going to want more than that don't buy one.

If you still want a 32 but going to fill it with 33 bits to get more power y not just buy a 33??????

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
