just because a car has been for sale for a long time doesnt make it a lemon

my old 32 took 8months iirc to sell and it was an awesome car, i spent thousands on it but just didnt have people interested in a 32 sedan

Thats true.....its just something to note i guess.

He did originally price this car at $22,000, so he has since dropped it $4,000....now that could be because A) No attention, B) overpriced for its condition, C) He wants to sell it ASAP.

Guess you just have to check it out yourself and make your own mind up and if your serious about it, get a mechanic to take a look before you buy.

If i decide on getting a R32 GTR (contemplating getting a R33 instead), this will be the one i look at :).

they're about 4 streets from one of the best GT-R Workshops in the country (Racepace) so getting it checked out by someone who knows a GT-R inside out should be no problem mate - it's also walking distance from my shop so I can have a quick look at it in the showroom for you if you want :)

I don't see much R32 GTR around anymore on the street

even 32 GTST is getting less.

If you still can find a good one, should buy it.

My IMPUL only have 50K on the clock and I just have the engine rebuild from Racepace. I may only drive the car once a month around the block and always under car cover.

the next step I will going to strip the whole car, paint back to Calsonic Blue with full stickers and roll cage. I may put a 6 speed dog box. I really have no idea how much this car will worth

Mate, i owned a stock R32 many moons ago and all I did was spend spend and spend - get a modded car with plenty of history and care. Like the V-spec above (I havent seen that car but has some tasty mods and its a VspecII)... I bought a Racepace worked R33 that was immaculate for around 30k - the engine build and power support mods cost nearly that alone! GTR's are a bargain but it anything goes wrong expect to pay huge $$$$ to fix + maintenance isn't cheap... that said I LOVE my GTR!!!

If you're going to drive it hard start saving for an engine build too...

PS - Racepace inspection is a must for any purchase! Ideally you'd let them maintain it too...

That's my 2c for the day :)

      Might import a stagea

      By iamhe77 · Posted

      Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.

      Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.

      Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By Duncan · Posted

      OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
