HAVE ADDED SOME MORE PHOTOS.

Hi Everyone.

Think I should probably sell SHY 32. Have only done 1200 kilometers in 2 1/2 years and I am going to be busy for a while yet. It deserves a home with someone who will use it.

It hasnt even been on a Dyno since the rebuild by Jakes Performance in January last year. In fact hardly driven since the rebuild.

Some of you will know the car well. Factory special order metallic Dark Blue with White Nismo 400 18 x 10 Wheels & Blue/Grey Bride seats make it very unusual.

BIG HKS Drag intercooler, BIG single T04 on HKS stainless Manifold, Apexi Computer, no AF Meters and every option you can think of from the Japanese Modification catalogues.

We discovered a highly modified head and Tomei Cams when we opened it up. Jake fitted new Forged Pistons and Billet Rods, new N1 Water Pump and and N1 Oil Pump with the JUN crank adaptor. Head was serviced and new guides fitted at the same time.

No Dyno records since the rebuild but should be in excess of 400kw depending on how far you want to push the boost.

Has an OS Giken triple plate clutch, and supposed to have OS Giken Gear Set but we dont know for sure.

Tein adjustable suspension including Track and Camber Rods. Almost new Falken tyres.

The car was professionally built by START Garage in Japan. It is in very good condition and has orginal Japanese Service stickers indicating it has been serviced every 1000 klms.

Would really like to keep it and wont give it away, but if anyone wants to give it a good home we can discuss a reasonable price. Would consider offers over $25K I guess. The engine rebuild cost $10K+.

It normally has a K&N Airfilter in a modified Commodore Airbox.

The photos with no airfilter were taken at The Summer Nats in 2006.

It has never been driven without an airfilter.

Wayne

you run a $10K engine rebuild with no air filter? :)

DAD your a looser, NAH jokes.

The car is BEAST and if I had the money it would be sitting in my garage.

Someone will get one of the cleanest, standard looking, perfectly modified R32 GTR's in the WORLD

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
