Hi guys, I'am a new member here and looking forward to possibly getting an R32 GTR in the near future. I currently have an S14a. And like the thought of RB26TT and 4WD :spank:

Getting to the point I have seen the price of these cars range from $20,000 to $35,000 stock. Whats does the extra money get me?

How much do you think it would cost me to get a nice clean, relatively low km's R32 GTR. I willing to pay more if its worth doing it that way.

Hope to get a good number of replies, thanks :) .

Low KM R32? Have Fun. But on carsales.com.au and carpoint they vary from $24,999 to $35,000 depending on modifications. Goodluck with the buying, importing is alot cheaper. :spank: Anway Goodluck.

:headspin: :)

"importing is alot cheaper"

sure is but no workshops have compliance for R32s at the moment (although I'm sure its coming now the 15 year rule is getting the chop).

QikQTR I think you've just gotta get a proper mechanical inspection of the car, they may be well engineered cars, but they're also 10-15 year old sports cars...and very few have only been driven to church on Sunday :)

Duncan, sorry didn't realise that workshops didn't have compliance for R32's.

you can import your own (if you are quick) under the 15 yr rule, but it is a road that is fought with peril (many pitfalls) I did it and have come up trumps - but that's not going to be the case for every car. (mine was one of the rare, only driven to church every Sunday types... with the old woman being such a safety focused type, she even fitted a roll cage!!!)

I just paid $30,000 for a 1994 R32 GTR, its pretty immaculate with low klm's, its really just like any other car... You pay more for lower klm's, you pay more the better the condition, you pay more the newer it is i.e 1989 or 1994, and in some cases you pay more for a stock car, than one with mods, you can also pay more if someone is ripping you off :wave:

      Max horse power stock internals?

      Yeah I heard the same. Might be hard to order one. But then I guess can go to hks or go to a more expensive n1 block with tomei. Guess will jump the hurdle once I get there next upgrade around. I can’t get work done in the states as the lead time will take for ever on top of shipping to Hong Kong.

      https://www.platinumracingproducts.com/en-us/products/nissan-rb26-cast-blocks This is the solution I was thinking of. I would stay away from Tomei USA, their quality is a question mark to me. If you want an engine machined in the US contact Club DSPORT: https://clubdsport.com/ Tomei JP is probably fine but I recall they stopped doing pre-assembled short or long blocks. In general it's pretty tough to get any kind of RB26 block at the moment with Nissan so severely backordered.

      PAR specifically offers stock ratios in their gearset and you could do whatever ratios are physically possible supposedly for no extra cost. I agree 6 ratios is better than 5, the factory 2nd gear is equivalent to the Getrag 2nd gear if you account for the differing final drive ratio though. The Getrag 3rd gear with a 3.916 final drive is equivalent to a 1.6 2nd gear in the FS5R30A. I'm about to swap the transmission out on my car, I'm tempted to send the one I have now out for rebuild with the standard "cross ratio" gearsets out there to see if it really makes such a big difference the next time I pull the transmission.

      This is what I was looking at next:  https://www.z1motorsports.com/engines/tomei/tomei-rb26-28l-short-block-assemblies-p-45479.html as we can’t bore the cylinders out in hk so better just buy the whole lot in one and install then retune. Everyone saying the weak link are the bolts holding the rods together. I already did valve springs, arp head bolts, hks racing coils, nismo fuel pumps and pressure regulators, injectors etc for the top of the engine.
