I'm with you there. Who wouldn't!

Although:

You may need to be a little more detailed in your request. What is decent power to you, 250kw or 900kw?

What other mods do you want to go along with it?

Are you looking to spend 25k or 80k?

If your budget is around 40, I'd import an decent 92/93 model and build a motor for it, or get a crate 3.2+ stroker from RIPS or SPOOL or someone similar. Or build a 26/30 yourself!

Or do you want a stock gtr that has 25+psi being fed into the high mileage 2.6 (with 80k's on the clock lol) with the only thing holding it together the upgraded head studs. Easy to get 350kw's out of one..Might last a month, might last years. Mine kept on keeping on! No idea how the rust kept the body together.

There are a couple of track ready Bnr's on Car Sales, and a GunGrey one with a big single and a blown motor. From memory a couple of decent single turbo GTR's were for sale up near Townsville, not sure if they are still there you would need to filter through the search function in this forum as they are not on carsales.

A couple of the 32's on car sales I'd stay well away from, unless you have a rust fetish..then by all means. Same goes if you chose certain importers...

If a 400 +/-kw single turbo Gun grey GTR that was owned by a forum member with a detailed build blog pops up in that 25 to 30k bracket, there will be a deposit on it before you can open the forum. So be quick, and good luck with your search.

Oh another option is, get a wad of cash out and go to one of your local SAU events or meets...

  • Like 7

sycorp we all know your GTR and that thing is an absolute beast! Not to mention an absolute bargain at 75k!! You are throwing money away.

Lightning McQueen FTW

Looking at buying an R32 GTR with decent amount of power.

Can be whatever colour, just show me what you have and go from there.

Cheers.

Wes is selling his. That is a lot of car for that price.

Or buy the cheapest you see i think there is one going for 18k atm somewhere, think that u wana spend 32k then use your saving from car 14k on mods n tune something like E85 tune big t3 high turbo that can get you like 380kw watch that motive video single vs twin, then its your happy mods not someone's else build

    • Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies. 
    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
