Aus Spec or Import GTR ?

[MX8]

Just saw this in the Trad Post (no its not my car). Is there that much difference between the original 100 Nissan Australia cars and the imports ?

NISSAN SKYLINE GTR 1991/1992, Australian Compliance, 1 of 100, 99800kms, burgundy, log books, VCW-065, $29500 or near offer EARLWOOD 0411-49 9799

This seems cheap, although the Kms are higher than some imports for similar money ?

I believe there wasn't much difference, the Aussie GTR got an oil cooler for the transfer case, and maybe an engine oil cooler but I'm not completely sure.

The Aussie delivered normally fetch a lot more than the imports. 2 weeks ago I saw a black R32 GTR at Peter Davey Toyota for $44950!!

MX8: another reason Aussie spec cars are often alot dearer is the history that comes with a locally sold vehicle. Most of the time you can get service history with aussie spec GTR's which is real peace of mind when you buying a hi performance car.

Also there *may* be a slight cost saving on insurances being locally delivered.

Build no 1 of 100 - that's gotta be collectable?

I think the rear lights on the Aus-Spec ones are different too, in stead of four brake lights you get two brakes and two blinkers ??? Or something like that.

The extra cost usually associated with Aust delivered cars comes from them having service history etc too prove the amount of kms they have done. These KMS in this car are probably genuine where as you could add anything upto 100,000kms onto what an import says on the clock. I should know I looked at heaps and have bought one. Many of the imports said 70,000 kms on the clock. Yeah right. Lucky if they were 175000.

That is a cheap car for Aust delivery and if you are looking may be worth a look. Be careful though. A lot of people get into the 32 just being able to afford then and then something goes wrong and the extra $5-10K they cannot find.

Yeah the rear lights are diffferent as peak rpm said one brake one indicator, easiest giveaway as to the GTR's origin! being 1 of 100 would up the price of anything

The aerials on Oz Spec models are different to the imports as well. Australian delivered 32 GTR's have small external aerials mounted on the roof at the middle point apex of the front windscreen. Imported versions have built-in aerials. The only noticeable trait of these is when ur sitting in the car you can see a thin strip of line running vertically on the passenger side of the front windscreen.

i'm not sure if it is car #1 in the 100, i think the seller is merely illustrating that it is ONE of the 100 official aus deliveries... i.e to make it seem more exclusive

[Shrub32]

My 32 has the roof mounted aerial also!! I dont know why its on there because the windsreen has the actual antenna in it. I think Mark Skaife has the number 1 of 100! Still having any aussie deliv GTR will up the price.

[Nismodified]

speedo goes up to about 300km/hr in the aussie spec.

id got for aussie spec mate, there rare, more rare then any other gtr really

only 100 made inthe world ever.

[Shrub32]

Has any one else with a 32 GTSt got the roof aerial?

Here is a photo of mine.
