My New '89 R32 Gtr

[Paul-e]

Hey Guys,

Long time reader, first time writer. I've just purchased my first Skyline and I couldn't be happier with it. But have a few questions I hope someone can help me with. Firstly, when I purchased the car the guy I bought it off told me this was one of only 560 units made, the nissan group-A evolution series, but on some research I found that these were produced in 1990 not 1989, does anyone know anything about this model and how to tell if it is actually one?

Also, when I switch the car off the Hicas light comes on and I can feel a small clunk which seems to be coming from near the front wheels, is this normal?

Cheers guys.

1. hicas light coming on and clunk = not normal, well at least my car does not do that...

im not sure what it would be but best get a good big service done when purchasing a gtr anyways. although if you have bought off an australian owner might be a bit of a different story.

i spend 1900 on new clutch, timing belt etc just after i bought mine, now runs sweet.

As for the group A, maybe check the VIN number on the net and see what you can find out

Cheers! Thanks for that. And yes I will check it in for service ASAP. Hope it doesn't uncover any major problems.

Comes up as build date 08/89 with the model code KBNR32RXFSLMZG which is identical to my GTR. There should be some sort of badging on it whether it be inside the engine bay or on the exterior to detail if its anything different.

Cheers, thanks for doing that for me. Will check in the engine bay. All that I have found so far is a plate that anyone could've put in there.
