Hi All,

I'm a medium time lurker, first time poster.

I am finally taking the plunge and buying an R32 GTR.

I should pick it up on Saturday(Tomorrow)....details and pics can be seen in the buyers post here:

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...=147526&hl=

So it is with much anticipation, excitement and a bit of "oh my god, how much is this actually gonna cost me to maintain", that I say hello to all.

I look forward to sharing experiences, knowledge and cruises with you!

Fraser.

nb, but 30k for a 32 GTR? I suppose its had good engine work done to it, id love that engine personally, but the suspension looks to be stock along with the ride hight, and it needs the rear wing.

That being said the interior looks shmick and it looks to be in top condition, good buy man :D wana swap? :)

man looks bloody awesome!

just remove that tape / whatever that is making those terrible eyelids on the front headlights and you have yourself a beast

nice to see some good GTRs going around.. its terrible the amount of shit quality GTRs selling for cheap these days.

Congratulations on your purchase Fraser :D

If you open your wallet right now and you currently have money in there, take photos as you'll probably never see money in there again :(

Welcome and enjoy!

Cheers,

Karen

PS. just joking about the wallet thing...looks like you have yourself a very nice machine ;)

Nice Gtr good luck with it, oh defective on pilar guages, in sight of a crash impact zone, just remember that you can get defected for it. Part from that welcome to the skyline world, and hope to see ya on some cruises. Just dont turn to the dark side and goto BC :|. Sau is the place to be

DAMN it a RICE gtr.. ewww

looks good. u got urself a VSPec 2 which supposively is no better than the garden variety.. just different large brakes. and suspension and styling mods.. well worth it in the end.. 2-5k just for a badge..:)

And active diff!

Nice car engine wise...not loving the white bits inside but hey I would live with it for the engine!

and lets not forget the far quicker processing attesa computer. . . . .

The vspec version of all the gtrs is a far better car, especially at the track and in wet condition and they are MUCH easier to drive. . . . . Not to mention the how rare a genuine 32 vspec 2 is to find. Good buy mate, It is basically a 32 gtr with 33 gtr vspec running gear, great combo.

Thank you all for the encouragement and advice.

I like the white interior...but we'll see how easy it is to live with. The rear wing has been put back on so i'll see which I prefer (on or off).

Oh, and I do not beleive it to be a VSpecII.

While it has the brembo brakes strut braces, I'm sure the vspecII's didnt come out in '92.

The only remaining way I have is to check the codes printed on the attessa controller methinks....

To me, The brakes were the most important part of the VSpec.

I'll let you know how it goes!

Cheers

    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me
