Hi all,

For sale is my 1992 R32 GTR that I purchased back in 2003 with 72,000km's on the clock. The vehicle had one Australian owner prior to buying it, and it is now up to 110,000km.

The Good

- Racepace Stage 1 RB26DETT (oil gallery modifications, head rebuilt with new guides, shims etc, forged pistons, R33 GTR crankshaft, sump baffles etc)

- Tomei Poncams (260 in/ex)

- HKS camgears

- Tomei twin entry fuel rail

- 2L surge tank in the boot with Bosch 044 fuel pump, braided lines to the fuel rail

- HKS twin plate clutch (with 50% meat remaining)

- HKS lightened flywheel

- Sard 800cc injectors

- Garrett T04z (0.86) on X-speed high mount manifold with Tial 44mm external wastegate

- Trust/Greddy PE-ii drag exhaust

- Trust/Greddy aluminium radiator

- Trust/Greddy dual entry drag intercooler

- Splitfire coil packs

- HKS Twin Power ignition amplifier

- Autronic SM4 ECU

- Blitz ZZ-R coilovers

- Whiteline front and rear sway bars, all bushes front to back have been replaced with Whiteline

- V-spec Brembo 4 pot callipers on the front with DBA 4000 slotted discs

- R34 GTR wheels with new (90% tread) Federal tyres

The interior of the car is very clean and in remarkable condition for its age, with no dash bubbles and no broken aircon vents. The car has an R33 GTR drivers seat, with normal wear and tear but no rips.

The Bad

- Snapped key stuck in drivers side door lock

- Gunmetal grey front bar and no grill (do have a carbon fibre grill in box, brand new, that will go with the car)

- Tachometer stops working occasionally on the instrument cluster

The Ugly

- 10cm spot of rust on the roof at the top of the drivers side A pillar.

- Dent in passenger side door

- Touched up scrape just behind the rear drivers side door

Summary

Overall the car is in A1 mechanical condition, with all parts above being brand new (excluding the clutch and sway bars which were previously on the car) and installed in the last 5000kms. All mechanical work was done by Autotech Services in Hume, ACT and it has a conservative tune on it currently making 380kw at all four wheels (Autotech have a dyno dynamics 4wd dyno). The car drives straight and I really cannot stress enough that mechanically this car is brilliant, anyone that drives it will be impressed.

The body of the car however does require some TLC - a few thousand on a decent paint job and getting the surface rust on the roof removed is all it would take to make this car absolutely mint.

Why am I selling? I have owned this car for almost 10 years now and interests/priorities have changed over the years. I was intending to fix the body up, but need to purchase a 4WD ute and have run out of garage space. I also only drive the car once a fortnight for a 50km round trip just to keep it running.

The car is located in Canberra and registered with no outstanding defects and is not listed as a write off on any systems. I am asking for $12,000 which I believe is a fair price given the work that has gone into it, and that it is basically brand new mechanically. Will upload pictures tomorrow night.

Best contact for me is through PM on here or via the mobile, 0423 670 289. Due to my job I am often unable to take calls during the day, but will respond after hours.

I have thought about parting it out, but don't have the time or space :)

It would also be a shame imo, as every mechanic who has driven it comments that it is one of the best driving R32's they have come across. It's a brilliant car and if someone picks it up they are getting an absolute bargain - all it then needs is a bit of money put into the body :)

Nik - I think I have a full set of 2nd hand locks with key (except for Ignition barrel). I'll have a look.

I've recently been in Nik's car and it pulls like a runaway.

Bargain buy boys!

No rust under the car. Sorry for the late reply, haven't had a chance to get on here again till now. Car is off the market, missus is now getting rid of hers instead of me getting rid of mine to make the required car space - sorry!

    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack.
