Yes it's a 1991 R32 GTS25... Has the RB25DE Engine, and puts out 142kw... These were only made from the end of 1991 to 1993, and are very common in NZ, but I haven't seen many over here. It goes awesome, and I love the fact that it is NA. I'm currently looking at changing the block to a bored out RB30. It will be a 3.2 litre in the end, and hopefully it should go well.

Heres one for you ..

I currently drive a vs commodore and im looking to go back to my dream car and buy an r32 ..

if insurence is too much i may have to settle for a N/A

sure my commodore is nice and shit .. i just spent 3 grand on it and it doesnt look any betta then any other ocmmodore out there.

Im interested in what times a stock r32 would run compared to a stock vs commodore.

and is it worth my time making the switch if i can only get a n/a

also what kind of money am i looking at to turbo a n/a r32 for when the itme comes.

Right now be prepared to pay between 13 to 15k for an N/A R32 coz you can't get em, all da chix (face it it is a car they'd like to drive) want em, and it costs shitloads to comply em.

Even funnier are R32 GTSt's which are being flogged for 17k by some import yards.

I wouldn't expect an n/a R32 (unless its a 2.5L or 3.2L monsta) to run too well compared to a commodore, maybe a V6 or sumfing but not a V8.

a v6 commy would kill an NA r32 as the commy's don't go too bad seriously. but there would be no point getting a NA skyline if you are thinking of turboing it later on just save the hassle and go for the turo now. from my experience there is not that much a difference between the v6 and v8 commies of that era in terms of 0-100 they both do about the same coz the v8's weigh heaps more and are only like 180kw.

    • Hey everyone, This is my first post apart of the introduction. I tried searching a bit on the forum but couldn't really get a straight answer. I got the car to my mechanic as I felt it being weak. It seems that it was missing on two cylinders due to the injectors. I had all my injectors clean and the car runs much better. The mechanic also confirmed my suspicions that the cat is clogged and needs to be tackled asap. The cat rattles a bit and the hot exhaust warning frequently lights up when driving after getting the injectors clean. In my introduction I was asked about what modification I might be interested in and mentioned a cat delete. From what I was told, this is not really beneficial on the RB20DE and there are more cons than pros.  Could perhaps anyone give some suggestions on what the best course of action would be since the current cat is toast and needs to be removed/replaced anyway? I can also sometimes smell a strong smell of fuel, but I'm not sure if this is related.
    • Hope the cans went down well at least 
    • 255 can't go wrong with the price.
    • When I was replacing my pump due to being stranded in the wrong state, I went with the Deatschwerks 320lph kit. It is a direct plug in to the stock wires, harness, everything. It comes with a plug... but you can plug the OEM plug directly into this thing. https://justjap.com/products/deatschwerks-dw300-fuel-pump-nissan-s13-silvia-r32-r33-r34-skyline-c34-stagea?currency=AUD Downside: Won't actually flow that much on boost if you want to push it on E85, but it's comparable to the 040/255 etc. Little more actually.
    • I dunno what the "best" one is....but when my 040 died late last year, after about 20 years of screaming service....I put in a 255. Like any such thing, you have to finagle it a little bit - it's not a no-brain swap. But it's not hard.
