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 :) .

"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.

As you can see, no 32s or 34s yet :) If you want something right now, yopu'll have to pick something already int he country.

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 would say import would be the best :

car like this are not rare but i stold very quickly, so if u want 2 import now (as the 15yr old rule is changing) i think u should buy the $1,100 serives fee for watever compoany u r using and get them 2 start looking now

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:

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
