Hi all, selling my R32GTR, its a 1992 model, imported by Synergy in August 2008, AFAIK I'm the 3rd Australian owner, 141 000kms. Its basically standard except for exhaust, air cleaners and chip, repainted Nov 2010, windows tinted June 2011, new Super Spark coils in Dec 2010, tyres 50% tread.

PLEASE NOTE, the car is registered and driveable, but needs a new engine. While it runs fine, it is filling the radiator with oil (no water in sump though), head has been checked and is supposedly ok, I have isolated the oil cooler and turbo water pipes, so either the head or block is cracked (or both). It has a steel head gasket which can be re-used.

Regretful sale, but after having it apart twice I have reached the end of my tether. Asking $14 000 or offers, no tyre kickers or time wasters please. Located in Adelaide Hills.

Car is faultless apart from the oil/water issue, it was the cleanest one I looked at when I was buying and the only one I saw with uncrushed chassis rails. I paid $18 500 just 18 months ago, for someone with an engine sitting in their shed its ideal, and like I said before open to offers, do need it sold, but not desperate yet.

Looks clean but like TM7GTR said, you may need to lower the price some more. The going rate of a RB26 these days isnt cheap.. your looking at around $4k for a unknown condition used engine, and the labour to put it in.. ouch.. and around $10k + labour for something that's been rebuilt.

Anyways, best of luck.

thanks for posting that Luke, where abouts are you out of curiousity?

if someone who knows how to DIY got your engine and put it in my car, they'd have a real goer

I will get some more pics up soon...no accidents I'm aware of, chassis rails undamaged too, so it doesn't appear to have been picked up with a fork lift like most of the others I looked at

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
