I have both my GT-Rs for sale.

#1 Is a lightly modded 1989 model, I imported it from Japan. Has rebuilt turbos (steel wheel ball bearing) from Croydon Autosport. Stock except for cat back exhaust and HK pods. I think it has a dual plate clutch, its always been pretty grabby to use. The water pump is leaking, have purchased a new one, stock rims, tyres are getting low. One flat tyre (from sitting in the garage). It had around 180kw ATW.

#2 is a Garage Saurus 1989 model. No idea what the turbos are. Garage Saurus ECU, Trust intercooler, SARD piping, Z32 AFM, bigger injectors, Full Whteline suspension, had 299kw ATW. Mid brace, front strut brace, HKS boost controller, finned diff, fibveglass bonnet, lots of things that are customised about this car. It unfortuantely met up with a cheesewire restraining barrier on Ginninderra/Coulter drive, which went up the bonnet and nearly cut me in half (at only 40km/h). Blundstone boots should not be worn when changing gears - sole came off and got caught under acc pedal. Anyway, it is rolling, two rims damaged, but is not repairable. Plan was to donor it into the first car, and sell the remainder.

Some spares, disks, suspension.

I also have, in the box, a brand new unused full power FC unit including hand controller and boost controller.

Unfortunately I have to go overseas urgently, and it is totally uneconomic to store them. $250 a month, in the rain.

Happy to answer any questions.

Would prefer to sell as one unit, Im happy to take offers. If i dont get a reasonable ofer thens its probably ebay.; not a lot of time.

May as well put a price on it.

I have NFI what they are worth at the moment.

With the transplant in place, the good car would probably go for $25k plus strip the other for parts.

But i dont have the time, so will take the best offer in the next 2 weeks.

Or Ebay it with no reserve

yeah, no way will you get 25k for a near stock 89 GTR

Yes, correct, I know that.

What would a Garage Saurus powered R32 go for?

Add in the extra gear stripped from the shell that is AOK for spares/sale. EG Seats, bonnet, guard, lights etc

Add in a Power FC plus bits (not needed necessarily)

Less the cost/time/effort to transplant the.

...

... somewhere above $14, Id say...

a few jap parts still doesnt make it anymore than a 22 year old GTR

Espesially when its pretty much an un0known.

You said yourself you dont know what turbos/clutch etc are in it, and its a standard motor that has been running 300rkws for god knows how many years.

Plus if you swap everything over the car is no longer matching #s etc

I don't mean to sound harsh but for anyone to buy it they would be expecting to do a complete engine rebuild etc

When you can pay 19k to get a 90s R32 GTR with a fresh engine and -7 turbos new clutch etc.

Like I said not trying to sound harsh or shit can your cars etc

But they are only worth what people are willing to pay and as John said there is no market, So if you want to get rid of them quick they will need to be very cheap

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
