Considering selling my 32 GTR, I just have not had the time to spend on or in the car and am considering going back to one car...

Heres some details:

Motor

Receipts from previous owner for 2 rebuilds...appears first one died...

Current engine rebuilt by Serge of John French Motors in QLD approx 10000kms on this build.

33 Block and Crank

Forged pistons

Mild head porting

Competition Valve Seats

ARP Head and Main studs + Rod Bolts

Tomei Gasket kit

-7 Turbos

Tomei Cam gears

Apexi PFC with Boost control kit

SX Fuel pressure Reg

Brand new HKS pods and custom piping, all neatly mounted, nice and secure

Ceramic coated split dumps into full system including big metal cat, exhaust is very quiet

Recently fitted Tomei Type B cams (yet to be retuned)

All receipts for engine build available totalling some $10k.

Will also include a set of brand new Siemens 740cc Injectors

Just had engine covers painted candy red and inlet manifold/twin turbo pipe Ceramic coated...$$$

Gearbox/Clutch

Single plate cushion button with Billet Flywheel

C's Short Shifter

Wheels/Tires

18x10 +12F +11R Work GT-Ps in Diamond finish, mint condition, just bought these through Importmonster and was amazed at the condition, no rash

Bridgestone Potenza 265/35/18s

Suspension

Brand new adjustable Selby front swaybar.

Cusco front strut brace

Rear strut brace

Currently sitting on stock shocks/springs for roadworthy inspection, will come with set of Koni Yellow Height/Damper adjustable shocks and Whiteline lowered springs

Original interior is very clean, original steering wheel restitched in black leather with red stitching. Car was resprayed (beside the bonnet) a few years ago so body is nice and straight and no rust.

For those interested -

I bought this car from QLD and it was pretty untidy in general when purchased...ive spent ALOT of time and money already getting it to where it is, genuine badges etc arent cheap! The car is currently out of reg and ive got it to a point where its ready for its inspection, its running stock ECU, stock Suspension, high mount stop light fitted, all the bits required to pass. Im not going to go into too much detail but long story short, Transport SA didnt recognise the QLD Mod Plate used when it was originally Complianced way back when so it requires an inspection here in SA for registration.

I will include everything required to return the car to its previous state, it is not alot of work.

Also have a polished catch can (over the cam cover style) and whiteline front camber kit to go with the car.

Some pics, call if genuinely interested.

With a little work refitting a few parts and a tune it will make low 300rwkw on 18ish psi. Was already making 270rwkw on 14psi before cams were fitted.

Sits a little mexican at stock ride height but should tuck in nicely once lowered....

With front jacked up, gives some idea how rear will sit once lowered...

$23.5k

May also consider swaps for something of interest, tough S15, not sure what else would grab me...EVO, Supra, old school SR Datto?

Hey mate, yes its an '89 and thats cool, can understand that it wont appeal to everyone in its current form but really the only stock parts are the ECU and Springs/Struts.

ECU is a simple swap back to the PFC, refitting the PFC Boost Controller is a piece of piss (2 vac lines) and the Struts are easy as to swap over in these things.

Cheers for your interest.

Shame it's not in the right state, would have a potential buyer if it were in NSW. :(

Could be interested mate, but if I'm honest, having bits of stock parts fitted puts me off..

Is this a 1989 then? - Judging by lack of side indicators?

I was under the impression all Japanese BNR32's came without side indicators? (unless they were put on during compliance)

All R32 GTR's except the AUS spec ones came without side indicators.

It was just a compliance thing that they were put on and some places / states they were not required.

89 Ones didn't require a compliance plate - no indicators.

Cheers mate...Now riding on Koni Yellows, fresh 20percent tint just done 2 weeks ago, centre muffler removed...sounds tough, getting a bit of use past few weeks, no issues. As for side indicators, 89s didn't require them, inspector did mention it needed them to pass but then I think he realized what year it was : )

    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
