Wrecking R32 Gts-T With S2 Rb25Det

Hey guys, not sure if this should be in this thread of the whole car forum but im parting ways with my 1989 r32 gts-t with s2 rb25det. The rb25det conversion was done approx 2 years ago, and was a full conversion inc gearbox.

I have owned the car for the past 6 years after importing it myself and having graduated uni im about to move for work so its time to part ways. Car would be perfect for either an enthusiast willing to put some work into it or alternatively as a running wreck. The car is still registered until June and running so you are welcome to come out and see the engine/gearbox in running condition. The primary reason for selling as a wreck rather than registered is that im rather busy at the moment so I do not have the time/energy to get the car a road worthy however im comfortable if the buyer wishes to do this themselves while the car is still registered to save hassle.

Notable specs of the car are:

185,500 k's (64,000 on the series 2 rb25det)

rb25 gearbox and running gear (when the conversion was done, all mounts was custom fabricated so this would suit either an r32 with the mounts provided or an r33 with your own mounts)

Recently replaced high flow radiator (purchased from one of the SAU group buys)

Recently replaced bosch fuel pump

Apexi turbo timer

HKS boost gauge

Momo steering wheel

17" rims

Things that require work is the body. There is a dint about the size of a 50c peice in the rear near the tail lights, along with a dint in the drivers side door where a trolley has hit the car. The car could generally use a paint job also and a few of the seals are starting to wear/peal due to age. There is also a dint in the passenger side front quarter however replacement guards will be provided so that shouldnt be an issue.

There is honestly alot of other extra's (skirts, stainless dump pipe, high flow exhaust eg), i'm currently in a flood effected area of South East Qld (although the car is safe!) and as soon as the flood water resides I will go out and photograph everything.

Asking $7,000 as an unregistered rolling wreck but as I said im happy to help the buyer out if they wish to get a roadworthy to keep the car registered. As I also mentioned im not thrilled on separating items of the car at this stage but if a few different guys are interested in taking different parts (i.e someone wants shell, another engine and gearbox) im happy enough to do that.

Hey guys, FINALLY have some pictures up. I've highlighted the notable damage to the body being the front left guard and the rear right corner. I have a set of fibreglass vented front guards that I paid $450 for about a year ago that I am happy to include in the sale to be used to replace the front guards.

Any other questions either pm or for a faster reply text on 0409 055 258

      It could be in the tune but in both cases it couldn't be completely solved or eliminated by some of the best tuners in victoria so I'm DOUBTFUL that it's in the tune or ECU but stranger things have happened of course. I've pondered that theory too but is there any theories that thinner and smaller ports overall would cause a turbo to spike? I would've thought it would just restrict it in general if it was small enough to make a difference. I wouldn't expect it to make a different at what is essentially sub 300kw at 4000rpm anyway. I think the next step is going to have to be the 6psi spring to rule out the idea that the gate is cracking open far too wide initially. At least that is the cheapest (free) thing to check initially.

      I'm thinking it is skinny NA Neo port sizing and cams. Somehow.

      -5’s did it. 8474 did it. Not hot side related. ECU related? 🤨🤪

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By silviaz · Posted

      Above you mentioned you only need to sand primer if there's an issue with it but with fillers it says the surface needs to be sanded to X grit beforehand. Does that sorta contradict that point as the primer hasn't been sanded yet? At the same time if I sand the primer, there's a good chance I'll expose the bare metal and I'm just chasing my tail at that point. Or I'll just use a sand sponge instead of sandpaper, it seems to be far finer in terms of abrasiveness as opposed to sandpaper. From what I understand, filler is like primer and needs scratches from the sandpaper to help it adhere to the panel. I realised the way I'm doing things is actually a bit counter productive as there's a chance after I put filler I will need to put epoxy primer again as opposed to putting the filler first and potentially no primer if I don't go to bare metal. Will keep this in my mind for the rest of my repairs.

      Not without making up a new screamer pipe from scatch I don't think based upon the angles of the current return. Backpressure shouldn't be an issue though as the straight gate isn't affected by backpressure in the same way that a poppet valve is, and on top of that the exhast system is 4" all the way through so there should be minimal pressure if any to begin with.
