Hi all,

I went and inspected this car last Tuesday (18 Jan 2011) , and I probably would've bought it except that on the following Friday I was offered a new job on a much higher salary and as such I am now looking for an R34 GT-R. Nevertheless, I thought I'd post my thoughts on Matt's car.

* Body is straight. I checked all the weld points for signs of damage/repair;— couldn't find any.

* I ran a magnet around the body of the car to check for bog. Magnet did not fall off at any point. (I was quite surprised, no other R32 I've inspected passed this test!)

* Paint is 99% flawless. Only blemish was a minor scratch on the passenger side of the front bumper, no physical damage to the bumper/body.

* All the electrics work. Windows are smooth. Car idles/revs smoothly.

* Engine did not blow any smoke.

* Interior is in good condition. No bubble in the dash and the driver's seat bolster showed almost no wear.

* Some slight surface rust in the spare-tyre well. I inspected this thoroughly, it is only SLIGHT surface rust at this stage and has not moved into the metal. Would only require a light sanding to remove it. Otherwise you could just keep it garaged and it wouldn't get any worse.

* Under-chassis was clear of rust.

* Matt had the car idling for 15 minutes, I checked for oil/coolant leaks. Couldn't find any. Got under the car with a flashlight and ran my hands all under the engine/around the sump checking for leaks. Only thing I got was dirt on my hands. No oil leaks found.

Overall, it's definitely one of the better R32s I've inspected. And as I said, I'd probably have it in my garage right now if I wasn't offered this new job.

If I get time later over the weekend I'll post some photos I took of the car.

I wish Matt all the best with selling this car.

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
