If you read the ad, it says "R32 GT skyline (not hr33 GTS, sorry not avaliable on list)"

That just means that they don't know how to use a drop down menu, not that they don't know what the car is.

Fair enough, one is as bad as the other i guess, but regardless its a fishy smelling car!

I think the reason why its under r33 because he prob put one for sale on carsales ,and as they run it to you sell it for $10 he prob just edited the add and put his next car for sale !

4 stud wheels so can't put r33 gtst rims straight on lol

dont even bother wasting time going to look at the car.......unles u want to buy it and build it from the ground up.....there are better r32's out there.... or if you are after a non turbo, go for the 33 non turbo.

either way - if ur going to go have a look at it - up to u, but id say it will be a waste of time....

I went and had a look at this the other week and I wasnt really impressed with it. Plus being one of the last 32's I was under the impression it came with an RB25? As it clearly has an RB20 in it. Guys steer clear of this one unless you have plenty of cash to build up as the motor has a nasty knock in it too. I tried to check the VIN number on it too but it wasnt a normal VIN number. This car has been in the country since 1998 so maybe they had different VINS back then???

Cheers

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      When you crank your car, and hit it with a timing light, can you see a steady crank timing?

      Oh, forgot to add, A few months ago I was getting mixture codes and the car was using crap loads of fuel. You could smell the unburned fuel in the exhaust, it was crazy strong. Economy was over 17.5 l/100 and usually around 19. I smoked the engine and found a leaky CCV hose which I replaced and then I replaced my two pre cat O2 sensors, I also replaced the MAF. This fixed my mixture codes and improved my exonomy but I'm still 14 - 15 l/100 when pottering about town so something is still amiss. Throttle response is much better and it has more pep but I'd like to know why it's still so thirsty (and I'm hoping that whatever it is gives me a bit more poke).

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Hello all, currently finishing up a rb25 swap into my s14. Having issues with starting, car has spark (confirmed by pulling a plug and watching it spark), has fuel(confirmed by checking pulse/voltage at injectors all spark plugs are soaked in fuel). Car cranks over and pops into the exhaust with a heavy fuel smell but no attempt to start or run, I have torn the timing cover off and triple confirmed timing, turned the CAS in multiple spots both directions, attempted to start with coolant temp and maf unplugged, checked my fuel lines and made sure they weren’t backwards, checked voltage at cas/injectors/coilpacks, made sure all the grounds in the harness are connected and added a few grounding straps (1 from chassis to block, 1 from chassis to head, and 1 from chassis to igniter chip) I am getting stumped here. As a last ditch effort I made a full grounding harness tonight that’s going to run from the battery and add an extra ground from the battery onto the coil pack harness/igniter chip/ intake manifold/ Wiring specialties harness ground/ and alternator. I’m hoping maybe the grounding harness will fix it here but posting here to see if anyone has any other ideas on what else I can check. My fuel pressure is unknown right gauge will be here tomorrow.  IMG_3206.mov

      yeah I was shocked when I checked my spare OEM on and as below that's how they come from Nissan. (side interesting note new NEO gearbox and replacement park lack the brass bush on the tips and its just all alloy) unsure about damage to the box currently back at 1110 to be pulled down/inspected and selector fork replaced as he built it previously and given the never before seen failure on his billet forks he is replacing it under warranty. He said he has used always OEM the keyway tab without issue for years so it could be an unlucky coincidence. I did talk to him about the sharp corners and stress concentration too. Re: hard shifts i got 7+ years out of the OEM one and the fork itself failed not the keyway. so could be bad luck as I said or an age thing + heat cycles in box and during fabrication of billet?
