For sale is my 1989 R32 Gtr rolling shell.

I bought the car in mid 2006 from a forum user in Newcastle and i was going to turn it into a street/drag car, however the project has since been canned and it's up for sale.

The engine bay has been painted in a custom purple pearl mix. Every nut/bolt was replaced with stainless. The interior has been completely stripped, all the sound deadening material removed and the floor cleaned.

The boot and rear firewall have been modified as per the pics below. I had the boot setup to take a 20gal RCI fuel cell, 3gal peterson dry sump tank, a nitrous system and a custom fuel system. The rear firewall was completely removed and a new stronger section put in. With the new firewall, i had it made rearward of the shockie towers to allow the rollcage much easier placement. With the boot modifications, the rear boot hinge components have been removed, so pins/locks will need to be installed to mount the boot. This new work has a coat of yellow (now black) killrust sprayed over the top so it doesn't rust. All this work has been done in accordance with an engineer so the car can still be street registered.

All of the glass/windows were removed in anticipation of getting a roll cage fitted. I still have all the framework and glass etc to go with the car. (can be put back in for $300)

The car has also had the battery relocated to the boot. It's also got a lockbar installed and the complete hicas system has been removed. The std fuel lines were removed and there's currently a single -8 alloy fuel line under the car. It's also go a new set of nismo braided brake lines front and rear. I had the wheels refurbed (lips machined and 2 repainted) at Wheel Revolution in slacks creek around 2yrs ago aswell, tyres are junkers just on there to move around.

The body on the car is pristine minus the odd little scratch on the front quarter panels & a bit of white paint? on the passenger front guard above the wheel arch (stinking workshops). There are a few spots on the floorpan that have some rust but can be easily cutout and replaced.

It comes complete with all the drivetrain (minus gearbox). Full interior minus front seats and aircon. Parts missing to finish it/get it running are listed below.

The car is complete minus the following:

- Complete engine

- Gearbox

- Radiator

- Intercooler

- Front bar

- Bonnet

- Front seats

- Air conditioning/heater (dash harness has also had the aircon wires removed)

- Abs (new front lines have been made but will need to be remade in stainless)

- Fuel system

- Clutch line

- Plus any other little things i've forgotten

Price $3500ono. The car is located in Ipswich, Qld.

      Lets say I wanted to buy this, specifically for this purpose. How do I actually perform the function. Can I still buy a Consult-1? Am I about to be burned by the fact my car is a 2000 model Series 2 R34 and thus will be some stupid other system? Do I just need this -> https://obd2australia.com.au/product/nissan-consult-14-pin-to-usb-ddl-diagnostic-interface-with-ftdi-ft232r-chip/ And with what software?

      That's probably OK. That's a face to face compression joint between two surfaces with the clamping load provided by those bolts. So.... it's unlikely that the bolts will end up feeling that load in shear, unless the clamping surfaces are not large enough, bolts not got enough tension on them, etc etc to prevent the two faces from moving wrt each other. Which... I would hope the designers have considered, seeing as it's probably one of the most important things the upright has to do apart from resist collapsing in its own right. But yes, it would definitely be worth asking them what their safety factor on that part of the design was. I tend to think that the casting, being a casting, is not necessarily the strongest bit of material in the world. It's about an inch square, and when you think about the loads that are being put into it, you have to wonder what safety factor the Nissan boys (and every other OEM engineer who has designed all the millions of other uprights that look essentially the same) used to account for defective casting, aging, severe impacts on the wheel, etc etc.

      Those bolts would be orders of magnitude stronger that cast aluminium though.  And its mainly clamping force, not shear they are dealing with?

      Except all that twisting force that is breaking a cast piece, appears to be going through 4 bolts in the picture Johnny posted of the BryPar one...

      R34 auto to manual conversion help

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The smart approach is to use the gearbox loom from the manual car. Makes it a lot easier - just plugs into the switches on the box and plugs into the main loom up near the fusebox. Then you only need to deal with bypassing the inhibit switch. The other approach requires you to use the wiring diagram to identify those wires by colour and location, perhaps even indulging in a little multimeter action to trace them end to end to make sure, and then.... you will have the answers you need. The R34 wiring diagram is available on-line (no, I do not have a link to it myself - I would have to do a search if I wasn't able to go to the copy I have at home).
