Anyone here missing an R32?

I've driven past the same one over the last three days...appears to have been dumped?

Haven't noticed any damage to it - but i've only been driving past.

Posted this on NS as well, so others there have seen it...

It's apparently a GTR - but I've not paid that much attention (I'm a toyota guy anyway)...

PM me for details if you're missing a skyline... (or if it's yours and just broken or something).

Cheers.

Have you called the cops to advise them of a 'possible' stolen and dumped car? Might be worth the call.

You'll need to provide a rego number to the 131444 hotline.

Not yet...

I'll stop down there tonight and report it.

It's on the way home so no major inconvenience to me... hope it's not a stolen car...it actually looks pretty clean and tidy (from the driveby's i've done).

It's been there since at least early monday morning....

It's an R32 GTR looks to be bayside blue (hard to tell exact shade in the dark), j-spec sticker on the back window - REGO: XKR<xxx> (Intentionally left out)

I contacted the police they said it hasn't been reported stolen, they are going to contact the owner and currently it has been listed as abandoned.

It's really clean, no signs of break in (IE door locks / windows) all in good nick....(Hope it stays that way..really does look a nice car) also no sign of a defect, just a parking infringement on the drivers side window.

I took some pics of it last night but crappy phone cam + dark = fail.

KB-R33 --> Nearest petrol station within 2km either in Seaford or Old Noarlunga....

The cars gone now and the thread has been locked (with content deleted AGAIN) on ns.

*Shrug* it's either been towed or removed by the owner / police or it's on the way to become parts somewhere.

Personally - I hope it's gone back to the owner...but again *Shrug*

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.

      ECU sees many times the speed than speedo does (R34 swap)

      It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.

      I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
