All,

After thinking long and hard over what new car to get, I have decided to stay with a GTR, Im keen to do some more serious track times so I am looking at an R32's GTR, which I can take one step further then my R34.

I have found a real (Checked with Nisan) R32 GTR Vspec 93 model 77,000 Km, mods are listed below.

HKS 2540 turbos

HKS 264 cams

HKS Turbo Manifold

HKS Dump pipes

HKS Header pipes

HKS Inlet pipes

HKS Pods

HKS Intercooler

HKS Hyper Damper Suspension

HKS Remote oil filter and cooler

Adj Cam sprockets

OS Twin Plate Clutch

Metal Head and other gaskit's

Apexi PFC and hand controller

Upgraded fuel pump

800CC Injectors

90mm exhaust

Cuscal Remote catch can

Cuscal radiator deflector

17in Advan wheels

Caster Adj front

Boost gauge

Turbo timer

The Vspec STD Brembo Barkes, Vspec diff and Brake vents

UAS Dyno showed 280KW at 15PSI (With 2.5'' crap Cat) and Comp check was approx 140PSI on all 6, under carriage is a straight as they come and the interior is in good condition.

I plan to do some additional mods.

Water Menthol injection, Fat belly Cat, RB25 Airflows and pods, Sump Baffle, DBA rotors and Frodo 2500’s, Upgrade the radiator, Camber kit and alloy bushes, Retune.

Buy price is $25K with 12 months rego.

What do people think about the car and the price?

Im thinking of placing a deposit today, so appreciate the feedback.

Thanks

That is the intent! Im moving work location and will be doing far less street Km's so I can allow this car to be a lot more aggresive then I have with my previous GTR's.

I guess my question is around market price for a car like this. The ass has dropped out of the market a little, and I wonder if I am paying too much for this car?

Hey car sounds good, price sound close to being right possibly a little high.

I know godzl1975 is selling his car on the quiet and i was very tempted to buy it but i didnt have the bank to support it in the long run.

His car is unbelievable! You should check it out.

so who put the metal head gasket in? was it done in aus? were any other internals done?

with those mods and shitty looking wheels like that tells you the car wasnt sitting in a show room.

my money is on it craps itself before the 100k service..

my opinion is to buy a gtr with great body and screwed engine for about the $15k mark and use the 10k to rebuild your own engine..

that way you know what you've done to is and work has warranty (to some degree). also the car feels more like your own becaause you have decided what you want from it.

only dis advantace is that you wont have the car for a while while an engine is built.

thats the way my brain works ;)

The car looks to have had the work done in Japan a fair while ago, except for plugs its as it left Japan.

I started with that mind set, accept The parts and Labour bill hit almost $20k (Internals/turbo's/clutch/ and acc's), and I have had trouble finding cheap late 32's without damaged or rusted rails. I have only been looking for 3 weeks both here and in Jap auctions.

Point taken but I have run out of time. I loose the 34 in a couple of weeks and need wheels.

      7 Speed Auto transmission fluid change (Skyline, Q50, Q60, Fuga, Q70, A62 Titan and probably heaps of others including Navara...)

      By Duncan · Posted

      I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....

      So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.

      our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
