Hi Everyone.

Some of you may remember this r32. It was for sale a few months ago. I imported the car my self, and unfortunatly it failed compliance due to the 'jacking points' being pushed in more then 20mm. This could have been caused from a number of things, my guess is the car forlifts in japan. The workshop i was using has been shut down, and now im stuck with a car that cannot be 'legally' complied registered.

Everything else about the car is perfect. It drives excellently, it has the power that it should have and it is clean, inside and out.

It is totally ridiculas, but im not going to get into that here because i could go on complaining and winging for ever. Yes i've lost alot of money, and yes i've thought about wrecking it. All because the jacking points were pushed in 2mm more then what is allowed. But i've moved on from cars now and i'm just going to cut my losses and sell it as is.

Basically, the car is is in very good condition. Hard to believe for a car that got rejected hey? The motor is in perfect (82,000kms on clock) and the gearbox is tight and the clutch is bouncy and fresh. The car was resprayed Gold in japan. It is very tidy inside and out, and looks great as you can see from the pics.

All the compliance work has been carried out on this car (full service etc, even though it isn't complied) and i've driven this car about 500kms, just on a dealer plate and had no problems what so ever.

Its a Gold 1990, r32 Gts-t Type M

Manual

Turbo

Aftermarket suspension

The steering wheel was returned to stock as well as the gearknob.

The exhaust, podfilter, gage and turbo timer have been removed, and i will be removing the cd player and radio.

I'm after $5500

Any questions etc, just post, or email at [email protected] or call on 0422373164

Regards

Mondial

mate the easiest way would be to part it out.

r32's are getting old so a lot of things would need replacing on them.

although it would be a shame to see such a nice car being wrecked, but whatyado

good luck

My worst nightmare...compliance...sorry to hear about your bad luck...

Where bouts u located? (if its there i must be blind...)

Yes this car can be used for whatever you want, just not on the road.

You only get one chance at compliance, if it doesnt pass, it doesnt pass.

thats so unfair. Surely you couldn't have the points super reinforced or something, then go back to a different engineer, it would probably be stronger than it ever was, and worthy of ADR's.. I would think.

Also can you claim anything throught the shipping insurance, or hold the car yard responsible perhaps?

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
