Have an R32 GTR which has had fire damage and I am trying to make up my mind what to do with it.

The damage is mainly contained to the interior which has now been gutted including all wiring and it will need a new roof skin. There are no doors, front or rear bumpers etc. and there is slight damage to the LH rear taillight panel and quarter. Despite all of this I believe it is wothwhile saving and put back on the road possibly as a convertible (if you are looking for something different) or it would be a perfect canditate for a race car. This car was registered in NSW but the registration has since lapsed.

I am open to selling it complete with the majority of the running gear or just as a bare shell but don't really feel like parting it out.

If there is enough interest I will give more details and appropriate prices.

Thanks in advance.

So the driveline/motor is still intact/undamaged and was operational (but not anymore due to wiring not being there). I may be interested. Got any pics of damaged areas?

Cheers

Hi Mate,

I Am Very Interested In The Car As A Whole, Let Me Know Of The Price That You Want, Pm Me With More Details Such As Location In Syd And A Contact Number, I Will Take Asap If It Is The Right Price.

Thank You

The driveline was intact when purchased but I bought the car to get another motor for my race car so it has since been removed. The motor from my race car is available but the bottom end is stuffed as a rod went through the block and sump etc. The head has some slight damage but is salvageable and there are no turbo's.

Post a price please as per the rules.

Yeh I knew this was coming. I have asked for expressions of interest to help me figure out how best to advertise it and will try to do something in this regard soon. I will also try to post some pic's and more details as soon as I can but work commitments don't allow me much time on the computer these days.

Make no bones about it, this is a major project if someone wants to get it back on the road but it would handy to use if rebuilding a wreck.

I am in two minds as to sell this thing as I had envisaged keeping it as a spare for my race car but storage is an issue.

i am interested can you like give me an idea on pricing such us under $10 000 or above, pm me with details wen ur ready.

thanx

Price would definately be below 10K because of the work required and I was thinking of something in the order of 5K.

I will offer $5000 as long as it is registerable

I can't see why it couldn't be re-registered and this is around the price I was thinking of. Send me a PM and I will give you my contact number.

I will try to post more details soon but have to log off again.

Regards,

trust me

Rx-7 how can you make that call, I don't even know you or lepperfish for that matter. I have been a member for quite sometime and have never had any misdealings with anyone so whats the story????

ok i will sort out the story, RX-7 i saw his R32 GTR for sale, it was nice and i was ready to buy, but i was $5000 short at the time, then with my job, i havent got all the money yet.

Lepperfish, i was talking to him about his car in the forums, cause it seemed nice, but i never saw it so i dont know y he is making this statement about me.

so the chassis still has proper history and can be reused?

can you PM me the Japanese VIN number on the chassis?

Well thats fair enough, but if you knew you didnt have the money why did you ask me to hold it for you for 2 weeks?

']Well thats fair enough, but if you knew you didnt have the money why did you ask me to hold it for you for 2 weeks?

I THOUGHT, THAT YOU WERE HOLDING IT FOR ME, BUT STILL SHOWING IT TO PEOPLE, AND YOU WERE GOIN TO LET ME KNOW IF THERE WAS ANOTHER BUYER, THATS WHAT I THOUGHT YOU WERE DOING.

Yes the chassis can be reused. I assume by proper history you are asking if it was properly imported and complied? If this is what you are asking I can confirm this was the case.

By Japanese VIN number do you mean the one stamped on the firewall?

I have some photos available but am not sure how to post to this thread so I can email them to any interested parties on request.

I can also confirm that there are no brake calipers or rotors, no intercooler, no lights or bootlid/wing.

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
