sorry forgot to say yes i was thinking of buying but problem is dont know how reliable a car is at 450kw atw

and would anyone recommend some other alternative to a an inspector rather then NRMA

thanks

well.....i notice that it doesn't say anything about freshly rebuilt so lets assume it isn't. Together with a laggy drag strip T88 turbo it would be a pain to drive and also a time bomb

As for a reliable inspection take it to one of the workshops that knows skylines and have them have a look at it, Nathan at Grey Imports would be my choice but also UAS in castle hill, Autosport Engineering at Kirawee etc etc

Ive seen the add for that car at Autostyle for the last few months. As far as i know its still got a stock RB26, so with 450AWKW its gonna need a rebuild sooner rather than later. Prolly why the owner got rid of it after haveing some fun with it. One of the forum memebrs is selling his R32GTR in Carpoint.com, its got a fresh engine rebuild with strengthened internals and a big assed t04z, all for 34K.

Good price IMO.

Theres quite a few big turboed equipped GTR's running around on stock engines that are now up for sale before the owner has to invest in the engine...

For 35K id want a fresh engined R32 GTR.....

[Morgs]

Eek thats my GTR with the T04Z

Anyone actually dealt with Autostyle? Thinking of consigning my car over to them....

[Savage Bliss]

Tick Tick Tick....

Seriously, Autostyle build cars for one reason and one reason only, to go really fu*$ing fast, now do you want something which is going to be accommodating more to the drag strip or daily driver....? Because this car isn't both.

Don't get me wrong, sounds wicked, but just not appropriate for a daily driver me thinks, particularly with a T88 strapped to it...

Hey Morgs, ive dealt with Autostyle before. I bought my GTR off them, Dom Russo is a nice bloke and i found him to be honest. Depsite not haveing to, he payed for some repairs to my car a few days after i bought it when it broke down on me, despite not haveing a warranty, which i thought was pretty good of him.

I traded my highly modified Mazda GTR to them aswell which saved me the hassle of selling a car that would of been difficult.

If/When the day comes to sell my GTR im pretty sure ill let someone like Autostyle sell it for me. Let them advertise and give up their time for potential buyers. Plus id be shit scared of being jumped for the car if i was selling it privately. When Jimbo and his 2 mates covered in tatts turn up and want a test drive, id be getting pretty nervous!!!! They do take a commision, but im not sure of the %. If the GTR isnt your daily driver then id give it a go, if its your sole transport then its not really an option...

Cheers, good luck with the sale...

This is not meant to be a slur on Autostyle as i know Dominic and respect his business....

but.....

Autostyle import their stock directly from Japan, and apart from tiding up the cars for sale....rarely have any input into the cars build....hence you are purchasing a car with limited knowledge of its history...this is part of the reason why the cars have such an attractive price tag attached.

With all performance purchases its buyer beware...as that cheap car can very quickly send you broke.

This example would be a great buy for someone with the finances to pull the engine give it a stengthen and freshen up so they are confident of trouble free motoring.

after seeing how hard they drive the cars at events like powercruise - I personally wouldn't buy one from them..

and - and would anyone recommend some other alternative to a an inspector rather then NRMA you being serious??

Selling a car through them is probably different to buying one from them..
