see for me it's the other way round. the 432 doesn't do much for me. the exterior is so so (looks much better with a gtr front bar and grill on it), but the interior doesn't do anything for me. especially the dash surround. just reminds me too much of a vn commodore.

I guess it does kind of look like a VN Commodore on the inside. Especially the doors. But I do agree on your point of the GT-R front and grill. Everyone has different tastes anyway.

Thanks Rallye ^_^

I'm sure everyone would agree that a GTR front end (minus guards) would look better, but work out the average prices of those items (bonnet, grille, front bar, front bar reo) and then factor in the likelyhood of finding all of those items in good condition, along with paint and you find yourself quite financially unstable :D

I have been trying to source some of those items over the past few months, wont be getting everything at once but I definitely want these items one day too :)

have you weighed up the cost of getting something that requires a respray and maybe a touch of bog and getting it fixed with trying to find one that is in perfect condition? it doesn't cost that much to get a bonnet and front bar painted

If I was to buy them they wouldn't be colour matched haha. I'd leave them in whatever colour I get them in. But was just hypothetically speaking, as most people want a matching coloured car.

Anyways, that's not really what this topic is about lol.

Seems like Nissan did release non-turbo R32's but only with RB20DE not RB25DE. Since this is a 1989 model maybe late model R32's (mid 1994) were fitted with RB25DE's? Can anyone confirm this?

Theres currently a few non-turbo coupe R32s for sale in Australia. They have RB25DE.

marc you really are a f**king dickhead, stop these ridiculous comparisons between a VN and R32 interior, I've owned both and nothing could be further from the truth, so STFU AND GTFO. For someone who dosen't even own a Skyline you spend a lot of time on forums dedicated to them.

Yeah the non turbo R32's Nissan released came with CA18i, RB20E, RB20DE, RB25DE. The variant with RB25DE engine is called the GTS25.

I have an RB25DE in mine however it's the GTE model (came with RB20E originally) but the genuine ones are out there.

But why are they so rare? (Coupe wise) Ive been on many websites and 90% of them have been GTS-T's but with Non-turbo engines dropped in them. Ive also checked heaps of Japanese car sales website and its the same story. :blink:

very nice jimmy, really good looking car you got there.

don't forget there are other alternatives if you're just looking at na. mx6 is nice to drive (but a mazda) and impreza's and liberty's are worth a look. saw a 2.5L liberty storm over a speed hump and tare up a hill yesterday much faster than my gtt could just cos it had the awd grip, it was depressing haha

important point

I disagree, my Honda Odyssey was the shit.

You could fit 8 adults comfortably, fold the seats down and fit an entire mattress in the back, had a ridiculous amount of cup holders and did awesome handbrake skids in the free carpark at Uni.

Those were the days, lol.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
