Hi All,

Unfortunately, it has come time for me to sell my daily BNR32! I'm getting married in November and I'm simultaneously starting a small business (and need to raise a little capital).

History:
I purchased this car about 2 years ago off a guy called Craig (I don't think he was a SAU member). I think I looked at about 15 different 32's at the time none of them to my liking. I've been driving my 32 for about 30 minutes to/from work each day. It certainly hasn't had any track days while I owned it, and I know the previous owner didn't take it out either.

In terms of work being done on it, it was all under the premise of 'tasteful' and 'subtle'. Basically, my brief to my tuner was always 'if a policeman opens the bonnet, I don't want them to even think that work had been done on the car'. Hence, the original wheels and height remained. Notwithstanding, the car has enough poke to really enjoy (its on ethanol, and making 280awkw). In the same sentence, I got pulled up twice in this car (for a 'random' check), and there was never any issues! My mandate is/was successful!

When I first got the car, I ensured my tuner (David MacDermid) from DMD tuning went through the car with a fine tooth comb. He was really impressed with the engine health (compression) and overall status of the car. A really good basis for the tune.

Conscious of security (who isn't with these things), I actually flew Chris Rogers down from BNE to personally install an alarm/immobilizer combination. He was extremely professional, and well worth the money. In true Chris fashion, security electronics are very very very well installed.

In terms of what I want for this car, I believe it is worth $24k, as I think this car has a really good heritage, and has been well maintained and shown that it deserved. Despite that, I am willing for movement by 5 percent. I am in no hurry to sell this car. If you're not willing to spend $24k on a GTR, you probably shouldn't be looking.

If you have any questions, please call me on 0421 730 138. I will not let you drive it unless you have a drivers licence, and I will not let you drive it without a holding deposit. I will not accept swaps or joy riders. Don't even bother. Lastly, I will be meeting people away from my home, for obvious reasons. I am located near Eltham.

Hi Wongy, thanks for your question. I never got these off Craig (previous owner), I didn't ever ask for it to be honest. The previous owner was meticulous, and trustworthy, and the car spoke for itself. Probably doesn't validate your question Wongy, Apologies!

In lieu, I found the PPSR cert. I ran on the car before I bought it. I'll upload this when I get home. This has the VIN, Engine#, and compliance date.

Cheers,

Tim.

Just asking :) because it will certainly help with the sale, theres a website you can get it off, have to pay of course, but its well worth it in the end. Even though i have no doubts it looks clean and well maintained, i would get it as extra documentation,pm me if u want the website.

regards

Nathan

Hi Nathan. Thanks so much for the tip. I'll send you a message now. I also have the PPSR cert from when I bought it. I would recommend anyone buying a car to check it out (it was $4).

Cheers,

Tim

    • Well, yes, every CU on the bus is available via the Consult port, but whether the scanner you are using is capable of talking to the TCU, the ABS/TCS modules, etc etc, is what is at question here. Many of them are only for engine codes. So, if you have one of those, you won't know if the ABS is having a bitch.
    • That's now. R chassis Skylines come from a time when the tolerance in the ADRs was a bit more....slack. My car, on 235/35-17, which is damn near the exact same size as the original 205/55-16, is pretty much bang on correct indicated speed across the whole legal range. That's demonstrated with constant speed run over 5km, and GPS speed. It's just the luck of the draw. My particular speedo head has to be the thing that is "calibrated" that way, because everything else (the diff ratio, the gearbox and the speedo drive**) are all same same as most other Skylines. **OK, so the speedo drive is a Navara unit to drive the R32's cable, not the electronic unit than an R33/4 would normally have with teh same gear on it. Otherwise, I applaud your OCD tendencies, and I would do the same if I needed to.
    • Not too sure, I believe the Nissan consult port does everything? Also just filled up the reservoir to full and the light is still on. The float seems to move up and down fine.
    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph on 255/40 17, so again conservative Google says manufacturers need to set the speedo from 4 to 10% slower than actual road speed.....for safety.....and compliance  After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
