Ordered my R32 GTR!

[chaos]

hahaha this was the 32 i was looking at getting too

she looks awesome

[Merli]

don't listen to the crowd, its your car and it can look how you want it to look.

they all told me to get rid of the rust in the datsun too

Don't listen to this man, he owns two yellow cars

[lwells]

Another for ditching the wing -- go the stocker (personally don't think the 32 GT-R looks as good as the GTS-t without a wing at all).

4 months? Pfft. Some of us have already been waiting 4 months, with another 4 to go.

LW.

[funkymonkey]

yeah and some people have already started moddin their cars while it sits in the holding yard till it can be shipped...

/me looks at lwells...

*sigh*

btw you guys gettin GTR's from japan would do well to grab the VIN numbers off your cars n run em thru the GTROC japan registry, if you're lucky you might find your ex owner

[lwells]

funkymonkey: What, I told you, I am setting a new trend in the modding market -- the "pre-mod" :upurs: (BTW, check your email).

Bah leave the wing !!! It gives the whingers something to look at when you tear off infront of them

If you don't mind me asking, what sorta price did it cost landed?

17-20k?

20-23k?

23-26k?

[PHATR32]

somewhere between $19k - $22k. sounds like too much?

what do you guys think?

Im going to take a guess of say......... $18,800

You will be happy with Prestige's service Steve

I guess the only way to know is a few mths after you have got it and driven it to see what the condition is really like. It looks pretty neat in the 2 pics shown above.

As many others say, leave $3-5k aside just for general maintenance and it'll last you years !!

Their was a nice article in 1 of the HPI mags (issue 40 something) on the easiest, cheapest way to get good power out of a GTR for drag racing. Might be worth a read.

[PHATR32]

yeah i see they are good. driver (works with me) got his r34 through em and he didnt have too many problems.

[PHATR32]

also, what exactly do they change when they do compliancing? any r32 gtr owners like to share some info?

steve

[funkymonkey]

what's the bet I can find that blue GTR in an option magazine? I swaer I've seen it somewhere, it had those distinctive blue tinted headlights.

[PHATR32]

mate if you find it let me know! what the option magazine?

steve

[2fardown]

Nice ride. Just a few things I would watch out for....... they have sprayed right over the number plate bracket on the back bumper which means it probably isn't the best of jobs and the paint looks thin in places, like on the mirrors. I'd budget in for a respray.

[swilly01]

maybe they wanted that blue on the bracket to tie in with the rest of the car??

dam nice car you got there, i saw this a while ago on prestige i think, love the colour!~

20 months till i get an r32 gts-t *sigh*

[Driver]

yeah, you would think they would paint that if you were going to get it done properly..

[justinfox]

Congrats on the purchase mate. I've had my R32 GT-R for a little while now and can I just say it's depthless. I don't think I will ever get bored of the car or ever really completely understand it!

And if you are taking it on track (it's an R32 GT-R... you MUST!) leave the wing on! I have a feeling it would work pretty well on track.

[SootyR32]

Don't count on it being here and on the road in 4 months. There's all types of hassles yet. Sorry to be a bummer but just a little warning. I bought mine at the start of July last year and din't even lay eyes on it until March of this year. Then the fun starts.

Anyway, having said that, well done and you'll never look back!

also, what exactly do they change when they do compliancing? any r32 gtr owners like to share some info?

Side intrusion bars, drivers side mirror, fuel filler restrictor, dashboard dimmer, child restraints plus a few other things under the 15 year rule. My seatbelts, sunvisors, etc all stayed and I didn't need side indicators or a high mount brake light. Should set you back around $1500.00. The big problem is that it's getting hard to find a 15 year engineer that will sign off for you if you did the work yourself, at least here in Vic it is.

[PHATR32]

thanx for the info matt, i think ill use one of the guys reccomended by prestige.

steve

[PHATR32]

well, i just tranfered the cash across for the gtr. so i suppose in a couple of days the gtr will offically be mine!
