It's a GTR, there are never 'no problems'

But yes, it will fit

Wouldn't stop it from fitting. Are going to do some work to the engine? The difference that springs to mind for me is the crank and oil pump situation. If you're going to pull the engine down and beef it up then you'd consider using an R33 crank and decent oil pump. If you want to keep a stock engine I'd actually be looking for a R33 engine- you'd be more likely to sell the car if you needed to also. For me it's more about the age of the R32 engine ( I don't believe in the k's)- unless you're pulling it down (and then going with new/bigger turbos, crank etc,) I wouldn't consider the saving over an R33 engine to be worth it for the difference in value it makes to your car.

Ah, then you'll need to work out whether the difference you save in the engine cost is going to be worth the (lower) price you'll get for the car. Your call, but do put yourself in the shoes of a prospective buyer.

Hi Adam, I am wondering now if you still want my R33 motor @89km genuine, with mechanics report on compression check & dyno sheet 214hp @4w bog standard boost (both from Tenagah Motorsport) removed from an RS260 family wagon for $4k plus 50% of freight cost ex Perth. I need to know else I am wasting my time & money travelling to Perth, getting the motor freight ready for shipping etc., at my cost without a deposit or any financial committment to date on your part in the transaction. Of course their is no warranty implied or otherwise, I have no control over the install or treatment the engine will be later subjected to.

Personally I have never pushed the motor past 6k, there having never been any need to, dyno sheet is posted for info & as I said motor was changed out for an N1 because I could, no other reason, give it a 100k service & drive it.

My 2c, no offence.

Cheers GW :P

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though.

      Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno

      Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.

      BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
