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??????

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
