Hi Guys,

I'm very lucky that the money I saved up for the last 5 years now I can afford a 1989 R32 GTR. As you know under the 15 Yrs rule, the 1989 R32 GTRs are getting easier to import and register in Australia. And as a huge fan on the R32, I'm very keen to purchase one for around $20,000 to $25,000 registered and everything.

I've read through the car buyer FAQ page avalible from this forum, and I would like to get more ideas more specifically on the R32 GTR.

These are things I know or I've heard about the R32 GTRs:

1. They simply cost too much for a 1989 car.

2. Most of them would have had an accident.

3. Most of them would have been trashed.

4. Not the cheapest car to insure.

5. bla bla bla...

It'll be very much appriciated to share your experience, advice and anything you have to say about the car.

Cheers Everyone.

Looking forward to be a skyline owner and part of this forum.

      R34 GTR Speedo Drive , sensor type ?

      It's almost certainly a reluctor generating an "AC" waveform. No, ECUs don't generally read those - they're usually set up for PWM square wave 0-5v stuff.

      Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?

      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

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      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.
