Hi fellow Skyline owners

I have just purchased an Aussie Delivered R32 Black GTR Skyline, which now compliments my R31 Series 1 and R31 Series 2 Skylines

Out of the 100 Aussie deliveries can anyone out there help me with the build number of my car out of the 100?

I believe it can be established via the chassis number which is 6F4KBNR32A0016034

Hoping someone out there can assist me?

Thanks....

Hi and welcome.

You will find some interesting reading here - http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/343750-aussie-delivered-r32-gtrs/

If you fast forward to post number 71 you will see that your car is number 19.

Did you buy this one from Shannons? My mate nearly bought that car from the previous owner about 10 months ago but found another one just as he was about to pay a deposit.

I know a little bit about the car so I'm happy to help out with what I know if you want.

Cheers,

Bob.

OK..... I'll answer my own question..

Yes it is the Shannons car as I can cross reference it from here - http://www.bonhams.com/aus/auction/19372/lot/304/

It was originally bought from Shannons at auction in mid 2009, private sale in late 2010 unsuccessful. The car went to Bonhams ...... No sale.

Auctioned at Shannons...... No Sale but then I guess you bought it from their Park and Sell facility?

Cheers,

Bob.

Thanks for that info Bob, much appreciated

I was the phone bidder that was bidding against you at Shannons when you purchased your car

Unique Cars reported that there was strong bidding for the car but as you would know, it was only me and you?

Thanks again Bob for the help re the build number

Gday and welcome, if you could please put your details up in the ADM thread, there is a link to it in my sig.

Cheers!

Hi Ken, happy to add my car to the link on your sig, but the website is not exactly user friendly?

Once you click on the link it brings up all the various postings, so from here how do I add my car?

Thanks Rod...

Ahh Cool.......... For some reason I thought the phone bidder was an interstate person but obviously not.

The bidding was strong up to $48K . At that stage there were about 6 bidders who eventually fell away.

You wouldn't recognise the car now, it's 10 times what it was 12 months ago.

I've probably over capitalised on the car but at least it's where I want it to be.

Hopefully we can catch up one day.

Regards,

Bob.

    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way.
