Yes i used to own a R32 GT-R , about 5 years ago.

i now have a R33 GT-R and R34 GT-R Vspec , the R32 i owned was 1991 and was "laggy" compared to my cars now if you know what i mean , when cornering understeer was happening whilst going fast around some turns if you know what i mean then id do a laggy powerslide ..

youll understand what i mean after you hop in a R33 GT-R and R34.

Thanks for the info, the reason i am asking is because this christmas the 1990 cars become eligable for import under the 15 year rule.

I just trying to decide on a car, can someone describe how they are and where should i look for a seller?

Thank you!

yeh id just buy a 1990 and wait till they are 15 years old since the 1989's arnt such a good build.

lwells think hes joking about the bad bild mate, they're all the same maybe trilabs doesn't realise the 32 started in 89.

your 32 understeered? wow!

i think most 89 were recalled a couple of times for various things ,attessa.big end prob`s oil pressure prob`s etc.. however they had everthing sorted by 1990 ...i remember reading that on a nissan web site somewherethey called it teething problems

i`m waiting to get the 1990 model ..just to be sure

In defence of the 89s if they've been recalled, then they've been fixed/sorted; unless you've found a particular example which has not been taken back for the work (which would be under Nissans warranty) which I'd say would be rare - given that infact; these issues/recalls existed.

I'd be wary of putting my money on bringing in a 1990 model under a 15 year rule in 2005, that rule may no longer exist, DOTARs has already made suggestions of this.

    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
    • Do you have some data like fuel pressure? It's really hard to say if you're still fighting a fuel system issue at this point. Could be something weird like the FPCM dipping out.
    • Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler? 
    • Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed
