1989 R32 GTS4 Manual. I wanted to turn this car into a track only car when it's rego expired. But the missus and I just can't afford that at the moment, and we don't have the space to keep it until we do. So as much as I hate to get rid of it (it was my first Skyline), it has to go.

~96,600ish on odometer but cluster has been changed. When I bought the car it had ~98,000 on it with a jumpy speedo. The cluster was changed for one as close to the same number as I could get at the time (~89,400). So the car itself is actually sitting on ~106,000

Pretty much stock except for:

K&K Coilovers front and rear (height and rebound adjustable). Currently lowered to 100mm lowest point on car (exhaust)

Pod Filter

Manual Boost Controller

3" cat-back exhaust

Mongoose immobiliser

Guard lips have been rolled on all corners (I kept the black plastic linings from the fronts though if the buyer wants them for whatever reason)

Currently sitting on 18" x 8.5" wheels with near new (95% tread) HiFly 801 tyres. Slight rash on the two left wheels, but nothing a bit of flat black paint won't cure. The wheels cost me $1500 and the tyres were $100ea If the buyer doesn't want these they can bring their own wheels and take $1,000 off the price of the car.

100,000km service done 4,500kms ago. New water pump, timing belt, tensioner, pulley and cam seals. As well as engine oil, filter and spark plugs being changed. Coolant and brake fluid changed at same time.

New pod filter 5,000kms ago.

New coil packs December 2010.

New front brake pads and rotors about 5 months ago. Rears still at 10mm.

Paint is weather worn and faded unfortunately as those red cars like to do :(

All boot trims, interior trims, panels etc are all there except the LHF air vent.

Front auto spoiler still works.

Comes with a spare wheel speed sensor so you can run it in 4WD or permanently in 2WD if you wish (currently has the 2WD sensor installed).

Rego runs out on 18/11 so selling unregistered. I haven't had a major look over the car, so I'm not 100% sure on what it needs for it's roadworthy. I know the CV boots are a definite thing to take car of, but apart from that I'm not sure.

could you post some more pictures of interior, front and any dents or scratches etc?

It was dark when I got home today so I didn't get to take the pics. I will try and get some tomorrow for you and post them.

What state are you located? Is this car currently in a condition to pass registration inspection? If not, what needs to be done?

And yes, as stated. Posted in QLD, located in QLD. Thread says Brisbane Northside. Brisbane QLD.

Here are some exterior pics of the fade and any scratches etc, including the scratches on the front left wheel. I thought both left wheels were scratched, but i can't find anything on the left rear now... so maybe I just imagined it.

It was too dark AGAIN today thanks to the black clouds and rain, so the engine pics didn't turn out at all. I'll try them again tomorrow.

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
