OK, I have given the car some thought based on my personal financial position.  Firstly, I will struggle to save the money to get the car back on the road and secondly, once I do get on the road I'll be more broke than the word broke.  So for this reason I am selling the beast as-is for $12000 ONO.  I am also open to a swap.

Here is a complete list of what needs repair/replacing from my mechanic:

- Gearbox. Completely gone

- Flywheel & clutch. Clutch master and slave. All gone

- Engine block damaged.  Can be repaired but I would recommend a replacement.

- Engine sump damaged

- Back turbo blown.

- Front pipes chopped

- Starter motor damaged

- Front drive shafts damaged

- RHS CV damaged

- Engine mounts need replacement

- Radiator & fan shroud damaged

- Firewall damaged

- Left hand chassis welding splitted

- Some electrical wires have been chopped.

From the list of repairs, it will be best to buy a half cut, get whatever is needed to get back on the road and sell what you don't need from the half cut.   Yes, I agree, it does sound like a daunting task to get her back on the road but if I had the money, I would have stopped at nothing.  Unfortunately, money is a barrier for me and I have no choice but to give her up.

I am ready to take offers.  I look forward to hearing from you soon. Khoi

The clutch gave way and in turn damaged all of the above, WTF?

I would have to suggest breaking down for parts man.

Your quite unlucky cause the damage to the turbo and block says you may as well do the whole engine. Also the damage to the chassis is very worrying...

I have seen the damage caused by a shattered flywheel however i dont think this has happened in you case otherwise you would have shatttered the bell housing and the starter motor will be in pieces.

I think you will be best off getting rid of it to a wreaker as a whole car... You might be lucky to get 8.5-9k...

Cause from the list you put up as damaged i see 7-8g's worth of diy repairs (would not to the chassis myself) but yeah 12g for the car and 7-8k for the repair work and its a 20k gtr. Like every other r32 gtr round in the 89 vintage.

Sorry but this is the way it is.

I saw a 93 R32 GTR with mods and 63k on the clock go for 13k FOB. By the time to bring it back and comply you are looking at a nice new grade 3.5 GTR for 18-19g's.

You guys ever seen a flywheel let go?

Nuh never seen one let go, but if the flywheel doesn't leave the bell housing (which appears to be the case with this matter) then how is all this other damage sustained?

If you'll sell it for 8 grand and the firewall or chasis isn't to damaged I'll take it. I spoke to you last thursday and could you call me and I'll come and have a look tonight. BH95805511 or ah 95891440 Gareth.

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      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?

      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
