Hi guys,as topic states I'm after a mint R32 GTR

-Must be in VIC

-Must have original engine

-Must have no accident history

-No rust whatsoever

-Nothing overly modified (prefer as close to standard as possible)

-Would prefer original paint, even if it's not pristine.

-Not a restored example

Don't waste my time if your car isnt all of the above.

Will spend up to 30k for the right car.

PM me

I think you have no idea what you're talking about to be honest.

I didnt say i was after a restored one.

I dont mind if it needs paint or has high kms.

As long as the car has no accident and no rust, I am happy to pay.

Easily do-able with given budget though may be a challenge in just Vic. Defo a few in aus for sure and wouldn't need that budget either.

Edit: Does this not suit every single criteria, and then some?

Given that I am willing to spend almost double the amount of that one, I think I will more then likely be able to find one.

That one is still advertised because it has been in an accident, passenger side rear quarter has visible repairs. Already inspected.

I didnt say I wanted one with perfect interior or low kms.

I am just after a straight one with no rust. I dont mind buying one with 200,000kms. Whoever thinks 30k isnt doable, thats fine just dont post in the thread.

This might be a stupid question to you, but have you looked into getting one imported? get a reputable import company like Iron Chef to import a clean R32, i think its doable for 30k :)

I think your expectations are quite reasonable.

I own an ADM and yes it's in a totally different price point but I did buy a V-spec 2 a couple of weeks ago along a very similar budget.

There is so much junk out there it's ridiculous. I am restoring mine as originality is priority on my ADM and the VS2 is purely a fun weekend car.

I didn't want two cars that do my head in.

This one doesn't quite fit your criteria but a lovely car none the less - http://www.best-r.com/create/gallery.php?&id=305

You could land this for under $30K, convert it back to stock and sell all the aftermarket goodies. Quite doable just time consuming.

Straight chassis doesn't mean its never been in any accident. When buying a 32 gtr, you have to be realistic about it. You're are the market for a 20+ year old high performance car. And you expect to see one in pristine condition. I bought mine which is jap spec, from this person who also has an original black ADM r32 gtr. Let me tell you, even ADM r32 in good condition still shows its age and roughness in terms of panels and paint. What I suggest here is, look for an r32 with straight chassis with no rust, with good interior, good motor/gearbox n all other mechanical bits and power options. Try to go easy on the exterior because i can guarantee you won't find any r32 on the market that the condition will be as good as clean r34s or other newer cars.

p.s. never judge a car's condition by photos. Photos don't tell Jack all.

Thanks for the reply.

At this stage I am only looking locally, I wouldn't want to import one. If I dont find one within a few months I will probably just start considering another car.

I think my expectations are reasonable. If something comes up, great. If not no issues.

I have a 1990 E-BNR32 here in QLD, every single bit of japanese paperwork about the car before she got on the boat, never been in accident & dead straight chassis, original engine, 129,000kms, original gun grey paint (came with N1 bodykit but had frp bonnet lip and boot lip painted), complete mint interior, brembo swap, complete suspension system overhaul with solid bushes and all adjustable arms (hicas has been replaced with adjustable toe arms), sits on a set of work emotion XT7's and wrapped in AD08'S

While engine is internally stock the car did come from Japan with a few bolt on mods, I've added a few myself and actually have parts to transform it into a 360awkw beast.

I would love to upgrade to a BNR34 and that would be my only reason to sell my car, given my car is pretty much what you're after it seems a good time. if you're interested feel free to contact me and I can give you any info you want, if not good luck with your search :)

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
