Yea im still leaning toward an R32 GTR... just have a look at the ones on www.justenginemanagement.com the look gorgeous just lowered on 19's and besides its an RB26DETT :D

Why would a GTR be more expensive to maintain over a GTST? i cant see the reasoning...

RB26DETT... 4WD....GRIP, DRIVE, ENJOY.

The Godzilla is a legend that lives in the here and now... Designed to perform, and IT DOES.

There is no substitute.

Can be expensive, but then again so can the other offerings, buy a good one, and it'll reward you many-fold.

IF YOU CAN, get an early one with the real pedigree, it was designed to be devastatingly good, and it lives up to it.

Starting from 23-24K upwards, but you get what you pay for, or be a good DIY man. Personally, there is no greater satisfaction than knowing you own part of a legend, and still beats "modern" styling, no gimmiky bits, no cheap look alike parts or anything.

BNR32, un-rivalled, never equalled..!!

Thank you for your tasteful wording Richard. I too agree that the GTR will be the ultimate street weapon, if only i could afford an R34 GTR. Until then, the R32 will be an exceptional project.

Cheers

Just to let you guys know, this is going to be a weekend toy ONLY... I'm keeping my Pulsar for daily driving.

My aim is for Power (approx 300rw/kw) + Reliability + +Style + Value for money

Cheers

The GTR is an awfull lot of fun to own. At 300rwkw the 4wd makes it standout.

Drive a good one and you will find yourself saying " this is what I want.."

However all performance cars need $$$ to keep them going. The 'value for money' part is left behind once 300rwkw entered the mix.

I owned an R32 GTR as a work vehicle and found it practical enough with the right amount of money budgeted for it's up keep.

You need to chat to long term GTR owners and get a feel for the yearly budget required. PM me and I will give you my figures.

Good luck with the search but, remember if you don't like it you can always sell it and start again. This is what we all do. :P

Thanks guys,

Well today i took a FOB (fresh of the boat) '94 R32 GTR VSpec II for a wrap and she was a smooth a silk! The older poorer quality interior made me hesitate a little but once i got stuck into it i was IN LOVE!

It felt much tighter and lighter than my R33 GTSt and the RB26DETT sounds so sweet!

I also managed to score a test drive in an S15 Jap Spec... the interior and looks were to die for... but after driven the GTR the S15 seemed like an N/A lol

So far the R32 GTR is the one...

Cheers

a 23k gtr, not sure if ull get a great one...otherwise id say go for that if its weekend driver.

id get an s15.

Edit: " R32 Gtr Vs S15 Jap Spec Vs R34 Gtt, Which one is best?" : R32 GTR

ive been searching carsales - carpoint etc and found a handfull of very very good condition R32 GTR's with rebuilt engines N1 turbos etc etc for under 20g (usualy 19ish grand). i would expect to pay around 23ish maybe for a V-spec. the used car market is stuffed, i say look around and get urself the GTR !!

:rolleyes:

      98 R34GTT 4k engine stumble

      By JC71 · Posted

      neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock.

      Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.

      They have said food will be limited. Mainly meat pies and sausage rolls from memory. But they have a coffee van!
