Ive got a '92 R32 gts4, and i crashed it!

So now i need parts and info.

Ive been told i need Godzilla parts, and that GTR bits wont fit?

I thought they were the same thing, but my crash repairer says otherwise.

Does anyone know of any parts (front end stuff), or a cheap complete car? I dont need a motor, just chassis and suspension bits.

Any info would be greatly appreciated, anything you could tell me would be of great help

Thanx post-48304-1204697048.jpg

Most GTR bits will most definitely fit. I have an R32 GTS4 too.

You'll find the rad support, guards and front bar are different, as is the engine (obviously) and supporting bits... but the hubs, suspension, rails, rad support etc are shared.

i'm gonna say that its a write-off. the chassis is certainly bent and you would be better off getting a new one and stripping all the good parts off this one and selling them to recoupe some of the losses.

Hey Shan, reply to my PM! :D

PM? oh... oh yeah... replied :D

Yeah it does look like a write off, although if you were to replace the front section of the rail, the inner guard and the rail it might be ok... big job though. I'd say your insurance company would just write it off.

yeah, i reckon any insurance company would write it off - but even from a economical point of view, it looks like it would cost close enough to the value of the car to repair (i'm talking about a proper job - no shortcuts!)

    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later. 
    • Silly question, as I bet you've checked already, but the motor turns over by hand yes? I suspect Neil has a spare starter, though if not, I believe I have a spare R33 (or two) starter.
