I Am Looking At Buying Another R32Gtr, Located In Vic


Recommended Posts

hi guys,

i live in sydney & i am interested in an r32gtr which is in vic.

my mate who lives in vic has looked at it & says its a good car, however, i want to organise an inspection to make sure that it has not had a rollcage in the past, there is no accident damage & that the suspension/bushes are not showing any signs of circuit abuse in its previous life when in japan.

which workshop is recommended near the cbd (hopefully within 30min drive) who can look at it on a hoist?

ive been quoted $200 which i thought sound a bit rich!? maybe im wrong :)

regards

Within 30 mins of CBD...

Chasers Motorworks in Footscray.

RE Customs in Springvale.

Protek in Preston.

There are others, can't remember...

$200 for workshop inspection? Sounds right.

I think even the RACV vehicle checks are about $200. I would prefer a GTR specialist at least that way they know what to check.

fair point - have u guys heard of 'NuNismo'? are they reputable gtr specialists?

Sounds like the old "Nisma" workshop re-badged, somewhere that is most certainly not reputable.

Honestly you are better off paying for a full Racepace inspection.

Get it comp tested as well etc etc. Bit of a effort but its either 20-30k or $500

I recently had a full stateroads inspection for a NSW car, best $300 i'd spent as it stopped me from buying it and wasting my cash.

i recently did the same when dan @ elite racing development in qld inspected a car for me - it was a moneypit which could not be seen without a hoist

^ they dont have a serious website to match though lol

that is true. last time i was there a couple weeks back they had a few of the Vodka O cars (rebuilding the Mossler, Audi R8, and a couple of the Gallardo cars too). The time before that they had 3 r32 GTR's all fully caged race prepped machines, and some wicked looking time attack/GT looking Evo 6. So dont be discouraged by the lack of info in the website. It cant hurt to give them a call. Cheers

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z

    • Wanna rewrite all of that in, say, 2 or 3 separate sentences, so that we can read it?
