Hi guys,

It is with great regret that I'm putting my pride and joy up for sale, the one and only Original Godzilla, the R32 GT-R. Those here in WA will have seen this car in social media being posted on Facebook by Enthusiast Groups, but most have never seen in real life due to it being kept in a warehouse for most of the time I have owned it and starting it on most weekends to keep the battery going and the oil moving. Well, now its up for sale. The paint on this car is still the factory Pearl Blue which is a special order on the V-specs (according to an independent site, only around 300 ever produced in this colour and 1 of 2 known in WA. This guy went to Fuji Speedway for the biggest GTR Meet in the world and only saw 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bQVhE72CWQ, skip to 10:41 haha, but check out the rest of the video too lol). Lots and lots of fruit and plenty of money has been spent on it!! She has been driven less than 2000kms in the time I have owned it which is about 1.5 years. Just paid for rego for another 6 months. If you're a serious buyer, get in touch with me and I can go through the vehicle in more detail and tell you the history of the vehicle. You will not find another that is in this condition with the original paint on still. There are some touching up that may be needed on the rear bumper due to sun damage from previous owner but I didn't want to fix as I wanted to keep everything as original as possible body wise.

Please note typos on the article: NOT a Nismo gearbox but it is built and T88's are made by GReddy as most of you already know. Lots of other things are not mentioned either.

NOT for the faint hearted and inexperienced drivers. Traction is lost on all 4 wheels in 2nd gear when hitting boost!! Tuned to over 600HP+ and has been driven on safe tune and low boost at 550hp. Engine is very healthy and T88 set up is still relatively new.

Reason for sale: car is hardly EVER used and hardly sees sunshine or the public eye, and I'm just paying for insurance, rego and warehouse storage costs. Ask all the guys with the best GTR's in WA and they will vouch for it. Rather another fellow enthusiasts who has been waiting for a rare and clean R32 monster enjoy it. So the guys who have been waiting, here it is guys. Make me an offer before someone else takes it. She even has the original glove compartment key. I have never seen another person with a 32R who still has theirs.

Chasing $28,500 o.n.o.

That Colour is awesome...i can't believe it's an OEM colour....If only i still lived in Perth I would be all over this. hope it goes to a good home.

shame you didn't drive it more often mate, I drive my GTR at least once a week, would go nuts if I didn't

Would love to add a 32 to my collection, alas 2 cars is enough for me for now.

Hey mate, you're right. I would love to drive her but I've got a really busy work schedule as well as two other brand new cars of which I only use one.. and thats when the misses does her shopping. Therefore after much deliberation, I have come to the realisation that she needs to go to someone who will spend more time with her.

    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
