not to common 94 32 v spec's.. And why would you wanna put a kit on it. i reccomend a few months of solid research. ie: net phone calls and visiting workshops and dealerships.

test drive the whole skyline fleet. the more knowlegde you got the better decision your gonna make.

Question. Why is it that your after a 94 Vspec??

personally, i think if u want a car to mod... just get a GTR, V specs are far too rare and are more of a collectors thing.... something u have sitting in your shed.

sounds like u a new to the skyline deal as well.... ever drivin a gtst?? GTRs can be a handful in the hands of the unknown....they are awesome when they are being driven by someone who can handle them, but even though they are awd, they arent as predictable through corners as a wrx or evo. they are alot more tail happy and can step out quite a bit.

do a search on here of R32 GTRs and their problems, or expenses. GTRs are expensive to repair and to mod. most parts are nearly triple the price of those for an RB20.

how young are you??

94' R32s are usually around high 20's - mid 30s....let alone a V-spec.

cheers

The reason i want a `94 R32 GTR V Spec is becoz i cant afford a R34 And i Hate the 40,000 R33 i see every Day i Want 2 enjoy the skyline experiance without having the same as every body else

and yes it is going 2 be hard to get a hold of my perticular model and thats wat i like its a hard to find car not many people will have 1

and i am 18 years old k

hey man,

ill be first to jump in and say it, buying such a powerful car while still young and potentially not capable to handle it is really bad. not to mention theyre expensive. have you tried out a gtst?

like the other guy said, go around test driving a heap of skylines before just making your mind up on that one solely.. it could save you a lot of trouble as well as cash.

:rofl:

1. Try Phil at Direct Imported ... he's a sponsor of this site.

www.directimported.com

I got my car through him, as did my brother and my ex girlfriend. All cars were/are great and I couldnt recommend anyone better.

2. There are heaps in Perth. Do a search. X-speed, Hyperdrive, Supertec, Speedworks, blah blah blah the list goes on.

3. Again, search. Carmate has heaps but don't know about their quality?

Works Auto in Perth sells some too.

Hope that helps somewhat, and good luck.

18 yo??

its illegal in melb to even own a GTR at that age, and for good reason too. sure there's no laws like that in WA?

you won't be dissappointed with a gtst while you save up for a gtr when you're 25...

No there isn't a power/weight in WA, and yes you can OWN a GTR you just can't DRIVE it on the road on your Ps (same with GTS-T, well you can just don't get caught).

there isnt that special about a V Spec.....all its got is different suspension, diff, brembos, 17' bbs rims stock, and the better Atessa comp. For your first car, you are better off just buying a cheap...but clean GTR. If you cant afford the running costs of a GTR then perhaps look into getting a gtst or the gts4

I would highly recommend saving your money on buying a GTR full stop. Your 18 right? Don't go out and be stupid buying a car you can't handle with money you don't have. At your age that 15 odd grand could be much better spent elsewhere. I believe a lot of other people would agree with me on that one. Go out and buy yourself a GTS-T R32 learn to drive that and if you crash it, it wont be too hard on the pocket. If you want something which is very fast in a straight line and something that not many people have, go out and buy yourself a GTi-R Pulsar at the more affordable price than of a GTR.

By the way if you wish to speak to someone in Perth who knows a hell of a lot about importing skylines, go down and speak to Paul from Autoworx in Wangara. They import and can comply R33's, R34's and do 15 year old compliance mainly for R32's. That way you can speak to a helpful guy about skylines and you can check out (maybe test drive) some of the other skyline range down there. And he charges $880 to import cars, much cheaper than the $1100 and $1000 fees companies like prestige motorsport and j-spec do.

Keep running costs in mind. It's one thing to be able to afford to buy a GTR, it's another to be able to afford to service it/repair it when it breaks. Like the others have said, consider the R32 GTS-t.

As for having an 'exclusive' car... most non-skyline enthusiasts will have no idea what the differences between a '94 V-Spec is to an '89 GTR. In fact most of them will be hard pressed to tell you the difference between a GTR and a GTS-t. At the end of the day, you want a car that YOU are happy with, it's not about other people. I mean, I'm one of those '40,000 R33 Skyline' owners and i'm damn proud!

      I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!

      Best place to order Authetic R32 Parts in Japan

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.

      No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
