Heya,

Currently in the market for a R32 GTR and just wondered if anyone knew anything about this specific car.

Here is the link: http://www.carsales.com.au/all-cars/privat...0&silo=1011

Anything i should be looking for in a R32 GTR? What are signs of wear and tear or thrashing? Generally a modified one means it has been pushed.

Thanks,

L.

well not that i know thecar

but from the looks of it...its a whole lotta mods that could cost alot of money if you did them yourself..so 20,000$ may be a real reasonable price

there are buying guides on this forum which could help you

Thanks for the reply.

Have been looking through the stickies, very helpful.

Was just hoping someone knew the car personally.

Don't suppose anyone recognizes the sticker on the side?

Also, is 270kw alot for the stock gearbox and drivetrain? Obviously treating her well with increase longevity but will this sort of power break stock parts?

it depends.....

if the car is in crap condition.......sometimes modifying causes stress and will cause problems.....

either way......modifications cause premature wear and tear....

i dont think you should worry too much

since you have decided to buy a r32 gtr you should be wary that they are old.

And that you should have a budget over the purchase price incase something happens to it.

Although this may not happen to you but you do see time and time that people budget only enough for the purchase price but then something happens and it's rebuild time but they dont have any money for a rebuild and need to sell.

The R32 GT-R was a premium variant and as such they are well built and with the proper level of maintenance, providing they haven't been abused, are a great car. If they have been modded by a muppet in back yard then there is a potential for a big bill. If on the other hand the vehicle has been modded by a reputable workshop then you shouldn't have too many problems.

Caveat emptor...get it checked by a specialist

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
