i own a R32 Nismo Edition, #219 its been resprayed midnight blue by the owner before me, but other than that inside and outside is all factory.... besides minor engine mods.

if you need any pics of special bits of the nismo 32 or lil things here and there, let me no mate. i can give you a hand going off my car.

nice to see another one geting built, this is the first ive seen bar mine.

my VIN is BNR100219 the 100 = NISMO

: D

Hey mate that's funny you say your car has been painted blue it must have been the thing to do to Nismo GTR's. I seen one for sale on yahoo a while back been painted bayside blue like mine has. Mine will be going back to gunmetal grey.

I'm happy to see any pics interior exterior dash engine bay it's always good to have something to work off if I get stuck.

My email is: [email protected]

same vin apart from 32 at the end.

I didn't realize anything of the car till I had it on the trailer heading home stopped at the shops and I had a another walk around it and thought something was up. It had no abs and no brake lines for the abs so it just hadn't been pulled off then I looked at the rear window no wiper then noticed soneone had put speakers ontop of the parcel shelf. So I thought I might so some digging on it.

Turns out to be #32. I brought it to turn into a full on track car but with only 560 built it will be worth something one day even with the engine mods it will have the engine bay will look stock

yer thats the same reason i brought mine, i only drive it maybe 1 once amonth, its just sits in the gargage under covers... haha if i was ever to paint it, it would also be goin back to gun grey, but in saying that the paint job it has atm is 100%. its a real good job.

Let me no if theres anything you need and ill send em asap.

cheers

That's funny hey same reason for buying it. I couldn't strip it out and turn it into an all out track car. I wish I got to drive mine once a month waiting for the $$$ to come better again to order the parts. If the paint it good then leave it till you want to put it back to orginal.

Will do mate any pics at all would be great

I know the feeling... I want to get sometime to work on my car. THe problem I run into is when I have time the car is at a shop, when I dont have time its in the garage...

Are you liking the NISTUNE? Gave the result and reliability your after? I am considering this is the way to go for me soon...

Yeah mate I know how you feel especially when the car sits there in front of me while I'm working on other things. But we have to earn cash to spend on these beasts.

Love nistune best ecu going around for street Nissan's even budget track cars does more than enough by far the top ecu for bang for buck.

All those Nissan ecu's people used to ditch and sell cheap not the case now when they can be turned into the same thing a power fc is.

I highly recomend them

Awesome... I am definately looking into it... My engine and box will be coming out in the next couple of months to do a turbo swap amongst other things so will need an ecu after i'm done...

Nice build!

Nice as mate what turbo's do you plan to use?? I do a stock gtr turbo rebuilt kit to steel wheel and 360 deg bearings brings them up to 500hp same as r34 gtr n1 turbos but they are ball bearing. I do them change over 1300. I'm using them on a clients rb26 in a gtst.

Thanks mate gone through many stages and ideas on how to build it and I think it will be a clean stock looking gtr with enough power to boot at 25psi

LOL! I think I bought a kit from you off ebay! I can rebuild them without any hassles and get them balanced locally... I'll let you know how it goes... I truly like reading your build...

    • You're not the first person that's said that about this car lol. A Touring wagon GT in Spark yellow mica would be the dog's danglies 😆 I will keep an eye out for a future purchase for sure. The seats are almost like the OEM Recaros... electric adjustment for fore/aft and tilt movements except reclining.   
    • Yes!! I love these! It's a shame its not the wagon though!   Thank everything that's holy that it doesn't have the interior of the Aussie delivered ones. Those seats are so much nicer.  
    • I'm both sorry and thankful that you do that. 
    • 2001 BE5D Subaru Legacy B4 RSK (3rd gen) EJ208 (pink injector) Twin Turbo 280PS 5-speed manual Full time 4WD "RSK" grade which means all of the above LQC option which means stock rear spoiler  I got it primarily to export to someone outside Japan who was interested. These BE5 Legacy B4 RSKs are going through a bit of a resurgence right know in Japan as they are one of the few cars from the "turbo, manual, RWD/4WD, 280hp gentleman's agreement era" cars that don't require stupid money to purchase. Which for some people might be a good opportunity to get as a base for restoration. If I can't find anyone to purchase it I will certainly be doing that myself over the long term. Why? Because it's properly fast in stock form, handles well enough for a GT sedan, there's still enough aftermarket and (if you can wait a while) genuine part support to make it a restoration candidate (<-- that will only get worse over time so it's a case of do it now or choose get a BL5 4th Gen). Mechanically it's fine, has only 89,200kms on the odometer. The problem with this car is that the body and exterior trims are weathered from at least the last 10 years being parked outdoors. I'm the 3rd owner, the first owner was the one that had it for 14 years and barely drove it, had a low-speed front impact (which didn't damage anything behind the radiator support) and got it fixed and sold it. The 2nd owner put most of the kms on it and parked it outside for the last 10 years, hence the door rubbers have seen better days but if you overlook those cosmetic details, it presents pretty nicely. There is some minor rust on the LH rear wheel arch which I'll have looked at too at some stage.  Also as you'd expect from a car this age, the clear top coat is gone, leaving a satin finish on the roof.  Mechanically it's fine (as you would expect from a car with less than 100K kms) but the steering does feel slightly vague around the centre position at higher speeds. So first on the list is to get the steering rack bushes looked at. There's also the Lock button on the remote which doesn't work, but the Open button does.... it means that the anti-theft system thinks it's always open? It seems like if you open the car and don't start the engine within 3 mins or so the anti-theft kicks in again without any beeps or signals. So if you got to start it after that, it won't. You have to push the open button again. That's how I understand it anyway. Just a small irritation but not a big problem to sort out. There's only one mod, the Wangan SPL muffler. Just a tad louder than stock. It's a really good mod for those who don't want to wake the neighbours but still want to hear a more prominent unequal length header EJ20 sound. Anyway I hope to get all those things done eventually, that is unless someone wanted to import it to their country from Japan (where I live). I'm open for negotiations as I really would like a Skyline... but this will definitely suffice in the meantime 🙂 *Disclaimer: This is how I picked it up from the dealer, minus the stuff on the back seat. I haven't cleaned the engine bay or done a thorough exterior clean, aside from spray painting the wipers. 
    • Wow, even with the Audi logo centre caps. I love OEM wheel mismatches.
