Mohsen it's a farkin 32 not an xy gt. quit making all these gay dream plans and just get it on the road with fresh interior stuff and a respray.

Lol, f**k no. Might as well put in the extra work and do it

Right instead of slapping it together just to get it on the road.

She's not that bad, her eyebrows and serious expression in every photo just reminded of Uncle Leo and the arm tatt is bit...yeah. Would like to see her smiling in a photo...

EDIT: slightly better photos on her FB page.

Disagree re: r32 plan

Harder and harder to find a r32 which hasn't gone down the cheap thrashed path. It is better to see a clean r32 than some cheap and nasty with power because that power is nothing spectacular so it's lose-lose.

My opinion would be to restore a r32 gtr but 4dr's provide a different view

Good luck with the rebuild, in 5-10years time when everyone has moved on to their family/boring cars you will have something which wasn't discarded because of the cheap thrash mentality.

Similar example; look at all the kingswoods being restored. Everyone looking for shells including the basic 6cyl models.

Tl;dr

so its more like an investment?

Lol no. It's at the tipping point where there are no more clean r32's. p-platers can't buy them and full license holders don't bother.

Give it a couple more years and they will all be rusting away.

I actually share the same mentality with R33 GTS-Ts. As common as they are, look at all of them...thrashed out, modified to the shit. There's hardly any examples left that don't have a myriad of problems, are smashed up or look like ass. One day a genuinely low km clean example will fetch a fair bit, simply because of the rest...

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
