g'day to all, my names luke and i've joined up with these forums to get a little advice

i currently own a FC3S rx7 and am looking for a new toy, mostly for track days but also for fun blasts through the hills etc - im after something a little more powerful than the 7 and have always been a admirer of the r32 gtr's

im interested in trying to find a R32 gtr and was after some opinions on what they are like to own, drive and take to the track.

i was also after some information on what most of you feel is the better option when buying one, wether to try to pick one up locally (hard being in SA) or importing/buying interstate.

and any other advice, like weak points of the make, or things which should probably cos $5 to replace but really cost $100.

thanks in advance for any advice.

G'day Luke,and a heeeoooge "welcome aboard"! I think you'll find most on these forums are pretty friendly! Best thing you can do here is do a search on the R32 GT-R from the search tool in the top tool bar:you will find HEAPS of info'! It's been a question asked MANY times,so the gang will probably point you there to save valuable typing time that can be spent on new topics! 'm a very biased R32 owner,and I'd talk/type your ear off,but I have to go to work! So;enjoy being an SAU'er now(although I don't mind rotors,either)and "get stuck into it"! Cheers! Jayce.

    • The nissan manual says to change coolant every 2 years. Is this still necessary if you're using coolant like Penrite or nulon which has improved over the years? It says it lasts 500,000km which seems hard to believe lol.
    • According to the Muse website, totally different material. The originals were that horrible solid foam rubber that was used for a lot of rear spoiler/flap things, like on Mitsu Galan GSRs. Heavy, and with enough compressibility/flex that any paint on them would crack fairly quickly. The Muse ones are just ABS, which is obviously similar to GTR lower front lip, etc etc. ABS is a good choice if you have the ability to tool up for it. The only thing better might be TPU-RIM or something equivalent. The TPUs were good. Plenty of flexibility (in twisting, bending, etc) but not really in compression.
    • Update 24/01/2025:    Bought a GReddy/Trust Intercooler (crossflow spec-LS) that was meant for a R33 GTST $871 AUD shipped, and a GReddy Profec boost controller $483 AUD, both brand new from Japan. Being honest, I would've thought the intercooler kit was discontinued but I guess not yet. Decided due to funds + time, I'll stick with a nistune on this stock-ish setup ( stock turbo set to probably 10-12psi ) and have it run cleaner ( suspect the 3" turbo back etc has sh*tted on my economy ) for my trip down south soon for the WSBK. Hopefully I can get it all installed and tuned by then. As for who I am getting it tuned with, I will be going with Toshi, (not hearing back from DVS so scratch that). There is also Birrong Auto but not sure if they do nistune installations and if they even tune it... Otherwise, anyone know where I can get my hands on an aluminium intake/suction pipe for an RB25DET NEO?
    • The german cars I've worked on seem to have that issue(in more than just headlights). Mostly where hot, but also just the insulation hardening and cracking in various places. Not abnormal from what ive seen.
    • According to the Muse website, similar material, but not the same. Meant to help with stopping the paint cracking. In saying that, I had genuine ones on my last grt, and never had that problem.   Could you post pics when you get them? Very much thinking of buying the Muse ones over fibreglass.
