What: 1992 R32 Gtst (Manual)

Where: Brisbane

How Much: $7250ono

Info:

1992 R32 Gtst – Manual, factory turbo – Originally auto but has been converted at some stage throughout its life. Has been fitted with a high flow turbo using rb25 housings (see turbo photos for housing numbers).

I have spent a great deal of time tracking down factory recirc lines, air box, bov ect. Everything is now back to factory – No idle issues that skylines suffer when this has been removed, no idle drop pulling up to traffic lights ect. Air con (everything) has been removed, still has a working heater.

AFM has been replaced (receipts provided to buyer).

3inch cat back exhaust and a GFB T Peace boost controller (currently still on stock) and a huge thermo fan – Performance wise everything else is as per factory.

Basic Tein coilovers, they are what they are, Option1 90% shimmed diff, Option1 caster rods, R33 Gtst rims with 80% tread left. Sound system is what you would call basic.. No rear speakers, aftermarket door speakers of some kind, plus a basic MP3 player head unit.

I have not washed or cleaned this car in nearly 5 months, nor do I plan to for inspections. This R32 is what it is. It is not a show car, it is un-tidy. It has been a daily driver that gets thrown around from time to time. In saying that the car is uber reliable and cracks a mean flame :happy:

Bad points:

Who knows what the true kays are. The cluster has been changed – it reads 45,000kms, which is obviously so far from the truth it’s not funny. Steering wheel is a wrecker replacement, wear is not indicative of true kays, however general condition of the car would suggest over 150,000kms

Some clown at one stage made an attempt to break into the car via the sunroof, the mounting pegs (little legs from roof glass to rail) were broken. Although the sunroof could still be operational, as the pegs were broken I have sealed up the roof with “sickaflex”.

No the roof didn’t leak, yes like all sunroof R32’s is smelt like a wet dog when it rained. As the roof is now sealed it does not weep or smell when wet. This can be removed and if you replaced the broken pegs/legs so you could have a working sunroof.

Like all R32’s the left hand side air con vent is missing, the gear stick boot is also not in the car. I have the leather section but I am just missing the plastic section to hold it in, door speaker covers are also missing (might be in a box, if they are you can have them). Most of the boot trim is not in the car, what I have of it, will be included.

The body speaks for its self, car park dings and markings – It’s a daily. Guards have been rolled and mildly pulled to accommodate 18x11inch wheels, which are not included in the sale. Guards obviously show signs of wear and tear due to the mild pull.

Overall the car is a fun little unit that is easy and enjoyable to throw around. It’s un-tidy but reliable.

Not really interested in swaps and I’m well aware of what Skylines are bought and sold for, so hilarious low balls will be ignored. Happy trolling :mad:

    • Lets say I wanted to buy this, specifically for this purpose. How do I actually perform the function. Can I still buy a Consult-1? Am I about to be burned by the fact my car is a 2000 model Series 2 R34 and thus will be some stupid other system? Do I just need this -> https://obd2australia.com.au/product/nissan-consult-14-pin-to-usb-ddl-diagnostic-interface-with-ftdi-ft232r-chip/ And with what software?
    • That's probably OK. That's a face to face compression joint between two surfaces with the clamping load provided by those bolts. So.... it's unlikely that the bolts will end up feeling that load in shear, unless the clamping surfaces are not large enough, bolts not got enough tension on them, etc etc to prevent the two faces from moving wrt each other. Which... I would hope the designers have considered, seeing as it's probably one of the most important things the upright has to do apart from resist collapsing in its own right. But yes, it would definitely be worth asking them what their safety factor on that part of the design was. I tend to think that the casting, being a casting, is not necessarily the strongest bit of material in the world. It's about an inch square, and when you think about the loads that are being put into it, you have to wonder what safety factor the Nissan boys (and every other OEM engineer who has designed all the millions of other uprights that look essentially the same) used to account for defective casting, aging, severe impacts on the wheel, etc etc. 
    • Those bolts would be orders of magnitude stronger that cast aluminium though.  And its mainly clamping force, not shear they are dealing with?
    • Except all that twisting force that is breaking a cast piece, appears to be going through 4 bolts in the picture Johnny posted of the BryPar one...
    • The smart approach is to use the gearbox loom from the manual car. Makes it a lot easier - just plugs into the switches on the box and plugs into the main loom up near the fusebox. Then you only need to deal with bypassing the inhibit switch. The other approach requires you to use the wiring diagram to identify those wires by colour and location, perhaps even indulging in a little multimeter action to trace them end to end to make sure, and then.... you will have the answers you need. The R34 wiring diagram is available on-line (no, I do not have a link to it myself - I would have to do a search if I wasn't able to go to the copy I have at home).
