Eoi-R32 Gtr. R33 N1 Eng & R34 N1 Turbo's 32,000Kms.


Recommended Posts

Hi Guys,

Since owning this beauty I have struggled to use it for what it was intended, a few track days and some fun. I havent been able to do so for a few reasons, tracking a car of this quality I thought was crazy, as well as have no time and lost some motivation for such a hobby.

This is an EOI as I LOVE the car and will only sell at the right price.The car has had a lot of rubbers, door trims etc replaced in the 2004 rebuild in Japan and feels like a new car, no squeeks or rattles at all:)

Having owned a few GTRs through the years this is without a doubt, by far the best build and performing GTR I have had, hence not too fussed if it sells!

Year: 1989

Body: 2 Door Coupe

Colour: Pearl Wine Red

Engine: 2.6L Twin Turbo, Twin Cam Inline 6 Cylinder (RB26DETT)

Transmission: 4WD MT

Odometer: 32,000kms (engine specific)

Price: $29,500 with RWC

Contact Details: 0401-004-999

Comments: Below is the modification list along with some history on the car, photos follow afterwards.

:: Engine ::

- Brand new R33 RB26DETT N1 Engine, only done around 32,000kms

- Brand new R34 N1 Twin Turbos, same mileage as new engine

- Greddy adjustable Cam Gears with clear cam gear cover (comes with original cover as well, see pic with extra parts)

- Sard 800cc Injectors

- HKS Drag Intercooler (600x300x100mm ? LxWxD, tube & fin design), 3? Inlet / Outlet

- Custom 3? Intercooler Piping

- Custom 3.5? mandrel Exhaust System from turbos to 4.5? rear muffler - amazingly subdued off boost but sounds great on full boost, very angry and tough. System is quiet easy on the ears as well with zero drone.

- Oil cooler with air guide and remote oil filter for easy replacement

- Oil Catch Can

- Twin Apexi Pod Filters

- Apexi Power FC ECU (tuned by Ben @ Racepace on 20psi = 320awkw )

:: Drive Train / Brakes ::

- Standard two piece drive shaft, LSD and 4WD system all very tight and strong ? never had any problems running current power for the last 3 years of ownership.

- Jim Berry ?Full Monty? single plate carbonetic clutch, 3600lbs pressure plate matched to an R31 Fly Wheel ? beautiful clutch, never had it slip on me once with current power level and operates almost like a standard clutch in terms of pedal heaviness and driveability in traffic.

- VSpec 2 Brembo front callipers with Lockheed rotors and pads, standard rear callipers and rotors / pads ? pulls up exceptionally well, feels like your eyeballs will pop out and its still got more in it before the ABS even kicks in!

- Teflon braided brake lines

:: Suspension / Bracing / Wheels ::

- Tein Coilovers, adjustable stiffness and dampening

- 11 structural bracing bars:

--- 2 Front & Rear Strut Braces

--- 1 Interior Cabin Brace (per image)

--- 4 Front & Rear Guard Braces (1 under each guard running lengthwise)

--- 1 Brace underneath near rear of engine / front of gearbox

--- 1 Mid trans tunnel Brace connecting either side of the tunnel

--- 2 Rear subframe Braces (1 each side)

- Volk Racing CE28N 17x9? Forged Monoblock lightweight Wheels (includes VR Duraluminium wheel nuts and VR valve caps) This combination of stiffness and grip makes for a very flat and stable cornering attitude with great response from the tyres under braking, cornering and acceleration.

:: Exterior / Interior ::

- Lightweight fibreglass bonnet

- Aerocatch Bonnet Pins (lockable)

- N1 Side Skirts & Vents in front bar

- Momo ?Race? Steering Wheel

- GTR carbon fibre Gear Knob

- Apexi EL2 Mechanical Boost Gauge

- Nismo 320kmph Speedometer

- Kenwood CD / MP3 head unit with what looks like standard speakers front & back - Fire extinguisher mounted to rear cabin brace

- Original Nissan GTR floor mats front & back with the original flare case in the front passengers foot well

- Original Nissan GTR front & rear seats in excellent, nearly as new condition - bolsters still all firm & solid, top of rear seats are not faded like nearly all other R32s are.

- All dash & trim in excellent condition with all accessories, gauges & lights fully functional - heater & aircon work as good as the day it rolled off the factory floor, only problem is there must be a dry solder inside the climate control unit that causes the display to turn off randomly, a light tap on the front brings it back. It doesn?t effect functionality of the climate control system itself or the manual button controls, it?s a common fault you?ll find in a lot of R32s, easily fixable if you have the time to pull it out and take to an autoelec.

:: History ::

The car was originally gunmetal grey before the owner of it then in Japan did a ground up rebuild of the car in 2004. It was resprayed a metallic factory colour ?wine red? but with lots of pearl and the engine bay was sprayed a stark white, maybe to show off the engine or to show up leaks and issues a lot easier?either way you always get asked the question when popping the bonnet ?did it use to be white??. The only place you can still see the original colour is the rear strut towers.

This chap worked at Nissan in Japan and so had access to many new parts for the GTR and is why you?ll find a lot of the seals and small plastic parts are like new as well as a lot of engine bay components.

Basically from there he dropped in the new motor and turbos with most of the listed supporting mods, the only mods added in Australia were the injectors, adjustable cam gears and the boost gauge.

A bloke well known in the NDSOC (Nissan Datsun Sports Owner Club) association imported it for himself in 2005 and owned it for a little over a year, taking it to a few show n? shines and concourse events.

:: General Info ::

- I have always kept it garaged and drive it as a daily driver with low KMs.

- Fastidiously maintained, never parked at shopping centres or with general cars as it has not one dent.

- Oil services have always been done every 5,000kms, quite often less and always with a new filter.

Please find the pictures below, I have really focused on what may seem obscure detail in some shots but it is to show the quality and condition the car has been kept in.

Cheers!

Jamie

After driving this car the past few days and getting Txt msgs with lowball offers around the $23-$25K mark, I have decided that the price of $29,500 is set, I will only neg slightly on price face to face with interested parties upon inspection. Please do not Txt me an offer, come to a look for yourself as pics do not do this car justice!!!

Thx

Just thought I would let you know that I will be away for 2 weeks as of tomorrow and can be reached via PM.

I have a few interested parties looking to view/test when I get back, so if you want this car be quick. Am looking at offers of $28K+ only at the moment.

Thanks

    • What is the "compromise" that you think will happen? Are you thinking that something will get damaged? The only things you have to be concerned about with spherical jointed suspension arms are; Arguments with the constabulary wrt their legality (they are likely to be illegal for road use without an engineering certificatation, and that may not be possible to obtain). A lot more NVH transmitted through to the passengers (which is hardly a concern for those with a preference for good handling, anyway). Greatly increased inspection and maintenance requirements (see above points, both).   It is extremely necessary to ask what car you are talking about. Your discussion on strut tops, for example, would be completely wrong for an R chassis, but be correct for an S chassis. R32s have specific problems that R33/4 do not have. Etc. I have hardened rubber bushes on upper rear control arms and traction rods. Adjustable length so as to be able to set both camber and bump steer. You cannot contemplate doing just the control arms and not the traction arms. And whatever bushing you have in one you should have in the other so that they have similar characteristics. Otherwise you can get increased oddness of behaviour as one bushing flexes and the other doesn't, changing the alignment between them. I have stock lower rear arms with urethane bushes. I may make changes here, these are are driven by the R32's geometry problems, so I won't discuss them here unless it proves necessary. I have spherical joints in the front caster rods. I have experienced absolutely no negatives and only positives from doing so. They are massively better than any other option. I have sphericals in the FUCAs, but this is driven largely by the (again) R32 specific problems with the motion of those arms. I just have to deal with the increased maintenance required. Given how much better the front end behaves with the sphericals in there.....I'd probably be tempted to go away from my preference (which is not to have sphericals on a road car, for 2 of the 3 reasons in the bulleted list above), just to gain those improvements. And so my preference for not using sphericals (in general) on a road car should be obvious. I use them judiciously, though, as required to solve particular problems.
    • Easiest way to know is to break out the multimeter and measure it when cold, then measure all the resistances again once it gets hot enough to misfire. Both the original ignitor and the J Replace version. Factory service manual will have the spec for the terminal measurements.
