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.

I was told there was only 4-5 cars on display at the show! hahahahaha

good work anyway!

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.

    • @Murray_Calavera  If I were an expert I wouldn't be in here looking for assistance.  I am extremely computer literate, have above average understanding on how things should be working and how they should tie together.  If I need to go to a professional tuner so be it, but I'd much rather learn and do things myself even if it means looking for some guidance along the way and blowing up a few engines. @GTSBoy  I was hoping it would be as simple as a large vacuum leak somewhere but I'm unable to find anything, all lines seem to be well capped or going where they need to be, and when removed there is vacuum felt on the tube.  It would be odd for the Haltech built in MAP to be faulty, the GTT tune I imported had it enabled from the start, I incorrectly assumed it was reading a signal from the stock MAP, but that doesn't exist.  After running a vacuum hose to the ECU the signal doesn't change more than 0.2 in either direction.   I'll probably upload a video of my settings tomorrow, as it stands I'm able to daily drive, but getting stuttering when giving it gas from idle, so pulling away from lights is a slow process of revving it up and feathering the clutch until its moving, then it will accelerate fine.  It sounds like I need to get to the bottom of the manifold pressure issue, but the ignition timing section is most intimidating to me and will probably let a pro do that part.  Tomorrow I'll try a different vacuum line to T off of, with any luck I selected one that was already bypassed during the DBW swap. @feartherb26  I do have +T in the works but wanted to wait until Spring to start with that swap since this is my good winter AWD vehicle.  When removing the butterfly, did it leave a bunch of holes in the manifold that you needed to plug?  I thought about removing it but assumed it would be a mess.   I notice no difference when capping the vacuum line to it or letting it do its thing.  This whole thing has convinced me to just get a forward facing manifold when the time comes though.
    • Update: tested my spark plugs that are supposed to be 5ohms with a 10% deviation and one gave me a 0 ohms reading and the rest were 3.9ohm<, so one bad and the others on their way out.
    • 9" wheels are a little too wide for a RWD 32. They can fit. People have put R33 GTR wheels on 32s for years and years. But they are a very tight squeeze. This has been known for about 30 years. As I said - there is no difference between a 17 and an 18 in terms of what will fit. The rolling diameter needs to stay about the same as stock - not very much larger. If you increase that, you will start to have problems. If you increae rolling diamater at the same time as yo increase width, you will have problems earlier. as 9" wheels are pushing the boundaries already, you would need to be careful with tyre choice. I would put 8.5s on the front of mine, but would expect problems with 9s.
    • post up screen shots of your injector tables
    • Diagnostic flow for a code 21 says check signal at the ECU pins, on a voltmeter of some kind it should read 0.1V at idle, 0.12V cranking, 0.15-0.25V at 2000 rpm. Check each coil such that +1, -3 is infinite or very high resistance, -3, +2 should do the same. (-1, +3), (+3, -2), (+1, -2), and (-1, +2) should all be somewhere between 0 ohms and high resistance. If you trace the path from the coil pin all the way back to the ECU in the diagram the resistance you measure at the coil vs connected to the harness should be pretty much the same.
