For sale I have a 1990 R32 GTSt. It is a 5 speed manual coupe with sunroof (that actually works), a/c that blows cold, p/s, ABS, all the usual electrics. It is dark green with 88000km. The car is stock other than a turbo timer and Alpine CD / Cassette / Equalizer. A nice straight car that isn't an ex drifter or that's been flogged. Fully registered.

Open to offers that are made with cash to back them up. [email protected]

Tasmania only thanks, this is why the ad is posted here.

by the way, I sold a blue GTS4 ages ago, the happy new owner rang me and told me how he'd taken it to the Scottsdale show and picked up three trophies, best rims, best interior and car of the show overall!

He's invested a fair bit in the car on rims etc. It was a nice car when he bought it, it's insane now!

Yes to Phat MR30 and to Wogboy.  Getting it out there to be seen!  Yep, straight clean car.  Wogboy, my missus saw you checking it out,  & liked your number plates!

Yeah, we stopped and had a look, my young bloke is after one.

so what's the deal with this car?

This is a car I spent some time hunting the jap auctions for.

This isn't one that was bought once the end of the 15 year rule was announced, people bought anything they could get their hands on, and it reflects in the 'quality' of some of the cars that are now on the market - talk to any of the mainland players and it's common knowledge that anything you can't sell you send to Tasmania as they'll buy anything.

This car doesn't have rust, it came from southern Japan, so no snow & ice, therefore no road salt.

Yep, you could buy an unregistered uncomplianced car for around $10K, but remember it's probably one of dozens bought in bulk by a big time mainland importer, who is now trying to offload the dregs in Tassie.

This car is actually registered here, so you aren't buying a car that needs anything doing to it. The chassis numbers actually match the import approval, unlike a certain Hobart operator trying to pass himself off as a import dealer. He is getting a reputation for dodgy activities, and legitimate importers are complaining about his activities as he ruins it for everyone.

This car is seriously for sale as my better half is off the Uni next year, so a toy must go.

Well what sort of price are you looking for? I'm interested in an R32. I could make an offer but it better if there originally is a price to go on! I'll have a look on eBay.

How may k's? So you live in Launnie? Are you heading into Hobart anytime soon?

I will send you a PM. However it has 88000km on it. It is a neat, clean & rust free example, especially when compared to a lot of what has flooded in since the end of the 15 year rule. Never has the adage of you get what you pay for been more appropriate.

Not heading to Hobart anytime soon, but can meet you part way if you really do want to have a look.

    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
    • Assuming your brake pads are not worn right down, I'd add a little brake fluid. Is there any sign of a brake fluid leak?
    • Hello all,  I need of some help. On my drive home my handbrake light lit up and started flashing. When I got home I checked my handbrake sensor under the centre console and nothing seemed out of the ordinary. I have scanned my car via the consult port, no codes shown. Checked my brake fluid as well which is half full. Tried unplugging the brake master but it didn't change anything. Thoughts on what it could be? The master float doesn't seem to be stuck. My car is an 1998 ER34 sedan GT. No hicas but has ABS Photos below 👇🏾
