Thats a big ask... I REALLY WANNA SEE IT NOW...

whats it gonna be, drag/track/targa/street car??

remembering that Rickards has run an 11.06 on his old setup,

I was thinking the same thing. To throw a cat amongst the pigeons, Max Griffith's HR31 being substantially lighter than most GT-Rs, and with 383kw at the treads - I wonder what would happen if they stuck big slicks on that and ran it down the quarter? Rear end squat could be a big problem, but if it could hook up at all it would have to run a good time.

Yeah its a big call but when you see the car and its running gear i think you will understand why it was said.

My understanding is that the car came from one of the car companies in Japan and it was a demo car that they had built to show what they are capable of doing.

Now the car has been dyno'd in Melbourne i believe and the figures were similar to Ma'x R31 but the new owner (jedinathan's old man) is having the car changed back to GTR 4wd, which in my book is a wise move with this car if all the stories of it are true.

Would be very interested in seeing them both run the 1/4 and what times they would get and that goes for any other import doing the block these days that has a bit of work done to it. Just take Rickards's car for example, one very tidy import that has had the right mods done and producing some very impressive figures.

:cheers:

I have had a good look at it actually, and I wasn't saying it won't be the goods.

I have no doubt it should be right up there. Lets wait and see what it does.

haha he obviously couldn't help himself!

Now in regards to being on the road - it's not yet. The best part ofcourse is to try and get it registered with all the gear on the car...which unfortunately wont be in time for drift mania.

      New R32 owner soon

      By Duncan · Posted

      Yeah agreed, you can't assume that shop are they only people who ever had to work on it. It was just a guess on the mods based on how things were done back then. You can check the Air Flow Meters by the part number on their tags, they are likely either Z32 or Nismo ones (both read about the same but the Z32 one is a little larger while nismo is stock size but supports the higher airflow like a Z32). And yes, all that would get you to 450hp / 340kw To tell what is happening with the turbos, you want a photo of the tag on the core, that will say what it was made out of  (they can retain the front and rear covers to make the plumbing easier)

      1992 R32 GT-R Race Car

      By bardabe · Posted

      I'm selling my personal race car. 1992 BNR32 Skyline GT-R About eight years ago the engine developed the dreaded low oil pressure problem. I removed it and found the issue. However shortly after I moved half way across the country, moved my work shop, bought a house, got married, then moved my shop again to it's permanent location for the time being. in turn I do not have the time to race this car as it should be. In turn the engine I built for this car will end up in my street car and this car I hope finds a home with someone who can use it to it's full potential. The roll bar was built by Jason Noren Fabricaiton in Pomona California to SCCA and NASA Specs. The car used to compete in redline time attack and global time attack enthusiast class. It also has a fire suppression system.  The car is with me at my workshop in Kyle Texas, USA. Shipping it is no problem, I can personally deliver the car to the port of either Houston or Los Angeles. Any other port depending on where it is may require transport but we can always work that out.   The chassis itself is rust free, rear quarters and under fenders are free of any rust so it's a very solid foundation for anyone who wishes to move forward with it. As posted and at the asking price of $20,000 USD the car includes all of the following;   All OEM Body panels, front fenders, rear bumpers etc.  OEM Nissan Projector headlamps (Pictured N1 lamps were removed) OEM Nismo Side Skirts / Extensions OEM Rear Spats  Front & Rear Subframes are installed car is full roller Rear Subframe has Cusco Camber Arms, Whiteline HICAS Elimination Front Subframe has Whiteline tension rods and whiteline Sway bars w/ endlinks.  Buddy Club N1 Coilovers All chassis wiring and engine wiring is in tact. Attessa System is fully in tact and was functional before engine removal.  BCNR33 GT-R Brembo Brakes F+R with Endless MX72 Plus Pads, DBA Rotors & Stainless Steel Brake lines Billion Racing Radiator Billion Radiator Hoses Fluidyne Engine Oil Cooler Accusump System (trunk Mounted) 5 Speed Transmission w/ Transfer Case F+R Prop-shafts Rear Differential With rear Axles.  Nismo Gauge Cluster Nismo Clutch + Flywheel   Essentially what is needed to make this car running and driving again is as follows: A working Engine, an ECU, and time to put it together. The price posted is or best offer as I am willing to remove some components to accommodate price to a certain extent. If any serious buyer wants full detailed pictures, videos, or any questions I'll be happy to answer them. I believe this car is priced to move quickly considering it's a rust free and very straight chassis but always open to fair negotiation.  I can be contacted via phone or email. (+19517081648) email is [email protected]

So question is...what different oil pan can i get to fit without any problems and modification? Thanks!
