Hey All,

Well it has come that time, sell the car or start pimping my ass!

The car in question is a R32 GTS4

Engine: RB20DET

Transmission: 5sp Manual, ATESSA 4wd

The car has all the mod cons; climate control a/c, electric mirrors, windows auto front spoiler and a working sunroof

The only modifications are:

a 3" Trust Cat back exhaust

Pod filter

Heavy duty clutch

Adjustable castor arms

The engine was replaced with a low k's import that used to be hooked up to an auto (I spun a big end) then I blew a turbo, and replaced it with a stock rb20 unit, the turbo still has visible balancing marks - currently running standard boost, the previous owner had a switchable boost controller installed, but I unhooked it - can be easily made to work. Now to the killer blow, the car was stolen one night, but fortunatly the only got 500m down the road before hitting a curb and breaking the castor rod (which I have replaced with adjustables) but has broken the pasenger side skirt. The filthy thieves then decided to try remove the wing with a screwdriver and damaged the paint on the boot and rear 1/4, I have repaired this and have it ready for a top coat (currently matt black) they then stole my sub and took the face off the sterio...

So baisicaly it needs a bit of paint, I spoke with a painter who said it would cost roughly $3-400, a new side skirt (or fix the old one) and a head unit or a new face (the speakers are 6.5" coaxials in custom door mounts behind the standard grills hooked up to a 2x100wrms amp, with all the cabling to support 500wrms in the boot) Otherwise, the car is mechanically great, I have been spending a lot of time carrying out every bit of maintenance I can find to do - cleaning afm, ic pipes, coilpacks, changed gearbox+diff oils etc... and I have a boot full of spare parts

So asking price is a negotiable $, to a good home, I will be sad to see it go.

Pm me or call 0400 996 522

    • I agree on doing some better than factory pistons, rods, and oil pump. For anyone using the vehicle on the road, I don't get why everyone wants big cams. The stock cam profile, with some more lift would be mint for road usage. Everyone going big cams and then wondering why it isn't as responsive in traffic, when they've shifted the torque curve upwards an additional 1000RPM. Make torque, at lower RPM. Sure it's not as cool as claiming "500KW" and revving it to 8,0000RPM, but that same torque 2,000RPM earlier... Then you don't need the extremely high end pistons and rods, and blah blah blah.
    • Personal experience. Those f**kers burn. And are actually a PITA to put out. Next time I walk down the back, I'll snap a photo of what the inside of the bonnet looks like when that thing ignites. PS, powder fire extinguishers are useless on that stuff too as it's fibrous and when it ignites, it starts to pull apart. And you end up just blowing powder through a sieve effectively.   Like the big thing is, if it's fire resistant, it's job is to stop what burning? The METAL above it? It's just to try keep heat off the bonnet paint work.
    • Oh man, sorry, $60.00000000... 😛
    • That's more or less what he meant. What it really means is that you do not have to go full crazy on the build. Don't need the best oil pump, expensive rods & pistons, big cams, etc. You can upgrade whatever you want instead of using stock level items, but you don't have to. Having said that - any time an RB is opened up, if anything is getting replaced, I think the opportunity should be taken to do all the sensible upgrades. Pistons, rods, pump, etc.
    • February update 🙂 We managed to get the very last 1/18th "Extra Scale" cars stock available from bookstores in Kyoto. These are actually the last ones and will not be restocked again! Hachette Collections Japan have not decided on a release date for these or other models in the series, so for the time being these are all there are available new.  These are showing up on Yahoo auctions at inflated prices already (especially the Celica and NSX) so get yours now at a very reasonable price before they disappear!
