I've seen that one, not a big fan. Too many bits and pieces I'd remove and its boosted...

Buy a tidy/rust free car. Return it to stock with new parts. Mosts "mods" are reversible.

What you sell some of the aftermarket parta for could cover the stock parts.

When i was looking for mine i wanted certain attributes but after you look at a few that are 'immaculate' you end up buying the least shitbox one. Regardless of colour/year model....unless your budget is infinite.

It's not that bad, this will decimate all after you put about fifteen grand in it or more, and if we have to, overnight parts from Japan

It would be funny if the Americans didn't buy many R32s, but waited for the R33 to become available and bulk buy them .

I'm beginning to consider cars outside my original specs simply because the ideal car isn't coming up.

Id consider my budget fairly healthy at around 40-45 imported.

So far I've missed a few grade 4/4.5 that were a little closer to 50k delivered. I'm putting those misses down to the fact that all of those cars had around/under 20,000 kms.

My quest continues....

Stay on target - your time will come....

Cheers

Andreas - took me several months as well but very happy with the end result.......

BTW - for that budget you can probably return that Gumtree one back to spec ;-)

$45 to $1,100....that's worse than the GTRs themselves!

:13_upside_down: I didn't know the front/rear moulds jumped that much either. The last time I checked they were $290 and $322 for front/rear, I really should start stocking up more on new parts.

Worst still........... That's just the outer moulds, then you need to buy the inner fasteners. They are a couple of hundred each too!

In a couple of years time these cars will be well and truly out of the reach of the enthusiast.

The poor cars will be wrecked out and the good cars will continue to rise in value.

My mate bought this Porsche 911 in 2008 for $42,500....... Spent about $18K over time and it's a multiple trophy winning car.

Listed it late last week....... http://www.classicthrottleshop.com/modernclassic8.html

Ironically, how many 911's do you think Porsche made between 1984-1989? These were last of the impact bumper cars......

Total - 70,044 That's coupes, cabriolets and targa's but still....... A lot higher number than R32 GT-R's!

OEM front a rear bars will be one of those expensive items as time goes on.

Not to derail the thread but the 32 GTS-t's are getting scarcer. Particularly unmodified.

I imagine trying to find a clean and stock R32 GTS-T would be like trying to find a clean and stock S13/180SX.

That 911 appreciated a fair bit! I always thought the ~44,000 R32 GTRs were too many, but those 70,000 911s prove it's not.

In contrast, there's 40 R32 GTRs going through auction at the moment in Japan. While a lot of them are most likely not that great, 40 is still 40. Will be interesting once it ends up being less than 10 going through auction in Japan regularly. If it ever ends up at this point anyway.

      Misfire/stalling issues

      By Chris_Guthrie · Posted

      Any recommendations on a decent replacement manifold that doesnt break the bank or require additional mods for the stock turbo setup? I figure if I'm going to pull the manifold off anyway to fix the studs might as well replace it.

      Misfire/stalling issues

      By Chris_Guthrie · Posted

      So I checked the turbo out today. Very minimum play at all just enough for the oil to take up when it's running. I did find an exhaust leak at the manifold. 1 stud all the way in the front is missing and the one all the way in the back is broken off. Front has visible signs of an exhaust leak. I'll fix that soon but that's not my problem still.  I also found that the nipple coming off the turbo had the hose capped off and a hose ran from the j-pipe by the bov going to the wastegate. I removed that hose and capped that nipple and put the turbo nipple hose back on the wastegate.  There was a ton of oil residue all through the charge side of the intercooler piping going to the throttle bodg. I'm thinking that's from the pcv. Doesn't seem to be coming from the turbo that was all clean on the pipes side.  Haven't had a chance to check fuel pressure yet, haven't had time been having to pull a lot of doubles at work. I did pick up some carb cleaner to clean the iacv but wanted to make sure I had a fresh gasket in case the old one rips when I pull it off.  I'm waiting on a MAF that was supposed to be here today but delayed to Monday. Have a double Monday and Friday and work all of next weekend so going to try to find some time in the middle of the week to try that out. Did about a 10m trip around the block today and towards the end the issues were coming back. Fingers crossed on this MAF but if not just going to throw a fuel pressure gauge in and see where I'm at.  Did notice today that I can definitely hear the injectors pulsing. Very audible clicking coming from them. Assuming that's normal? Should also mean CAS is functioning somewhat properly. After it warmed up when I started it the intermittent misfires came in again. Did start doing that before it was fully warmed up.

      GOT SUM's RB34

      This morning I carefully reinstalled the manifold and started looking at a couple of things I need to do.  Heat wrap arrived sometime today so I popped into the shed with the missus dishwashing gloves and started wrapping the first half of the dump and the screamer/plumb back.  Once I do the second half I'll be able to final fit the turbo and exhaust up.  Also pulled the harness out today and started terminating it at the ECU end. A connector is done, just need to run the remaining wires that arent in the harness - 12v, gnd and couple I/O

      Thanks for all the replies! I also wanted to ask if wheels that were fitted on Ford Falcons would fit the 350GTs as well? In the area I'm at there aren't that many options for secondhand wheels and new ones here are way out of my budget. From what I've seen, most of the wheels that are available that were fitted on Ford Falcons have an offset of +33 to +36, with a centre bore of 70.5mm whereas the stock 350GT's ones are 66mm, can't seem to find any hubcentric rings that fit that difference though.
