Hi Everyone.

Some of you may remember this r32. It was for sale a few months ago. I imported the car my self, and unfortunatly it failed compliance due to the 'jacking points' being pushed in more then 20mm. This could have been caused from a number of things, my guess is the car forlifts in japan. The workshop i was using has been shut down, and now im stuck with a car that cannot be 'legally' complied registered.

Everything else about the car is perfect. It drives excellently, it has the power that it should have and it is clean, inside and out.

It is totally ridiculas, but im not going to get into that here because i could go on complaining and winging for ever. Yes i've lost alot of money, and yes i've thought about wrecking it. All because the jacking points were pushed in 2mm more then what is allowed. But i've moved on from cars now and i'm just going to cut my losses and sell it as is.

Basically, the car is is in very good condition. Hard to believe for a car that got rejected hey? The motor is in perfect (82,000kms on clock) and the gearbox is tight and the clutch is bouncy and fresh. The car was resprayed Gold in japan. It is very tidy inside and out, and looks great as you can see from the pics.

All the compliance work has been carried out on this car (full service etc, even though it isn't complied) and i've driven this car about 500kms, just on a dealer plate and had no problems what so ever.

Its a Gold 1990, r32 Gts-t Type M

Manual

Turbo

Aftermarket suspension

The steering wheel was returned to stock as well as the gearknob.

The exhaust, podfilter, gage and turbo timer have been removed, and i will be removing the cd player and radio.

I'm after $5500

Any questions etc, just post, or email at [email protected] or call on 0422373164

Regards

Mondial

mate the easiest way would be to part it out.

r32's are getting old so a lot of things would need replacing on them.

although it would be a shame to see such a nice car being wrecked, but whatyado

good luck

My worst nightmare...compliance...sorry to hear about your bad luck...

Where bouts u located? (if its there i must be blind...)

Yes this car can be used for whatever you want, just not on the road.

You only get one chance at compliance, if it doesnt pass, it doesnt pass.

thats so unfair. Surely you couldn't have the points super reinforced or something, then go back to a different engineer, it would probably be stronger than it ever was, and worthy of ADR's.. I would think.

Also can you claim anything throught the shipping insurance, or hold the car yard responsible perhaps?

    • Give the fluid a really good flush, then go do the same track again. Report back too please
    • I think most of the benefit there is really from the battery as well, having 1 kWh or so means you don't need the engine running at idle to run the AC, when the battery is depleted you can run much higher idle to charge the battery at a lower bsfc point and then shut it back down, you can regen on braking to recover some of that power too. I can't imagine the benefit from only running the compressor as much as needed is huge if you're mostly only running the AC on hot sunny days where it really needs to work hard to keep interior cabin temp under ambient.
    • Yeah, unless you're doing it by the book, your data is probably not useful. Boiling point drops rapidly with only just a little water in it.
    • How hard are you tracking it? I have 378 in front and 355 in the back with decent pads and my brakes were spongy after a decent session with lots of braking. It was a short track though but got up to around 190-200 max. be keen to hear. Mind you, I havent flushed my fluid so thats probably part of reason.
    • Awesome thanks for the reply Man! I already plugged up the back just cause I can’t take a chance on it leaking on me again haha. But i will fab a catch can with 2x for the cam covers and a lower one for the sump vent.    Now as this will drain back as well , Is there any concern I should have of the oil being drained back. I don’t run e85 or anything .   2nd question is, from the picture does it seem that my sump fitting is above oil level? Silly question but I rather have someone’s experienced opinion lol
