Hi All,

It's with some reluctance that I put this car up for sale. I haven't had it all that long, and it's been an absolute pleasure the entire time. I've invested many hours into this car, not to mention money. Unfortunately, the financial situation I am currently in makes it an impossibility for me to keep it. I wish it weren't the case, but there's no other way for me to clear the debt I currently have. Here is some information.

Make: Nissan

Model: R32 Skyline GTS-t Type M

Mileage: 140,000km

Transmission: 5 Speed Manual

Colour: Factory Metallic Black Pearl (Code: 732)

Location: Hills District, Sydney

Complied? Yes

RWC supplied? N/A

Currently registered? Yes (Until February '09)

Price: $11,800 Negotiable

Contact: Ryan - 0405 269 810 / ryanjlewis at hotmail.com

No corners have been cut during my ownership. I bought the car as an almost stock example from a gentleman in his early thirties. He and his wife had just had a baby and bought a Corolla for the day to day running about. The car has only ever been serviced by prestigious service houses using the finest quality parts. The details of the car from factory are as follows:

- Factory Electric Sunroof, Windows & Mirrors

- Central Locking

- Digital Climate Control & Air Conditioning

- Type M Options (Body Kit, Larger 4 Piston Brakes, etc.)

- Factory Limited Slip Differential

- Factory Driving/Fog Lights

It has then been further enhanced with the following modifications:

- Full Turbo Back 3" Exhaust

- K&N M's Pod Filter / K&N Panel Filter & Airbox

- Bilstein Adjustable Shocks

- RS*R Ti2000 Springs

- DBA 4000 Slotted Brake Rotors & Hawk HPS Pads

- HICAS Locking Bar & Hydraulic Line Replacement

- Stereo: Pioneer HU, Hertz Splits (Front), Kenwood 6x9s (Rear), Alpine Amp

- Swoosh 60mm Digital Boost Gauge

- White LEDs (Climate Control)

- DTM Z-7 Wheels (Bronze) - 18x9.5+35 Rear (255/35/18), 18x8.5+30 Front (235/40/18)

- Nismo GT Gear Shifter

- Window Tinting

- 3 Point Engine Immobiliser

I have almost all standard parts to replace the aftermarket ones, so I am willing to negotiate on price if you do not want all mods to come with the car. We can discuss that upon inspection. The interior of the car is in fantastic condition. It still has the factory leather steering wheel and it is pristine. No sun damage whatsoever - which is quite rare. You won't be disappointed, especially if you have been to inspect any similar R32s.

The car was dirty when these photos were taken, but they are the most up to date images that I have. Number plates are included with the sale.

I'm keen to find the right buyer for this car. I don't want someone who is going to ruin what I have built by crashing it or tastelessly abusing it. These are classic Japanese sports cars, and should be treated as such. Inspections are welcome, but I won't tolerate test pilots dropping by for a joyride.

Thanks for looking.

Thanks for the kind comments, gents. The car is now advertised on carsales.com.au, and I've got a couple of very interested parties. :) All things going to plan, this will be sold by Sunday. Get in quick if you're keen.

Car is SOLD. Met up with a great guy and his mate out at Oran Park today. I got the impression that they were pretty blown away by the car. He was the first guy to get serious about it over the phone, and also the first person to see it in the flesh. "First to see will buy?" I think so.

Thanks for the interest. It's a bitter sweet thing to see the car go. The polish job on it before I took it out there had it looking better than ever. And watching it drive away wasn't at all easy. Congrats on the purchase, Nigel. Hope to keep in touch with you and follow the progress of the car. All the best. :D

Ladies and Gents,

I can't tell you how proud I am to be driving this car... I've looked at heaps of '32s and this one is truly outstanding :( Ryan, congrats on such an awesome vehicle, so many of these things are abused but this one was a golden exception and shall continue to be. I have never owned such a piece of art. Those of us who understand the beauty that is an R32, will understand what I mean, but I assure you it will be well looked after! Gotta say thanks so much to Mick too and, for the love of all that is holy, grab some Federals!!! :(

Cheers all!

Haha. It's a weight off my mind knowing that the car has gone to someone as passionate about them as I am. If you've got any questions, be sure to get in touch. Might want to update your profile too - it's a '92 instead of an '89. :( Also, if that disc of photos doesn't work, let me know and I'll make you another copy. I didn't get a chance to check it before I gave it to you.

its a sad and sureal feeling to watch your pride and joy drive away with someone else... its also an unbelievable feeling when your driving away in a new car, especially something as nice as this 32.

i was 2 weeks away from having enough money to make you a decent offer. oh well... not meant to be.

    • The old manifold was quite under the GTR strut brace.  The new manifold is quite [unknown] the GTR strut brace. The GTR strut brace was needed to clear the bonnet vents. The Old strut brace will almost certainly clear the new manifold, but not the bonnet vents. The old strut brace will almost certainly clear the new manifold, and the new bonnet without vents. But I am hoping the GTR strut brace clears the new manifold :p
    • On the bright side, at least you knew that it happened and remedied before anything happened. A friend of mine just took his Fiat 124 to a shop for an oil change and they didn't tighten the oil filter housing properly. 4.5 quarts spewed out and even after refilling + tightening the cap the engine has a tick now.
    • So, more pain. The FAST manifold is a little larger than the stocker. This is problematic because there really wasn't much clearance to begin with, so going from 'barely enough' well into 'no' is sad based on the external dimensions of the thing, even though where it bolts to the head is the same. Result is the fuel rails sit a good 25mm higher, and this is a bit of an issue with the wiring that runs behind the motor, and the fuel lines, and everything else. When pushing the manifold on, it required a huge amount of force to crush wiring looms to fit it, sensors like the MAP sensor are about 1mm from the firewall, and the FPR just has to bend ABS lines to be forced into place. After some brainstorming and some sad drinking, the loom for some reason ran from the grommet behind the ABS sensor, then to the driver side head, then back to the passenger side head. So all of this was pulled back and stripped, a few wires cut and rejoined, so that the 'branch' was now on the passenger side's head as below: Before you basically couldn't see anything behind the driver head. This is much improved! The MAP sensor is now pointing up (instead of at the firewall) Brackets have been made up for the rail. The rails are for a LS1, the manifold is designed around a LS2 as it's base. Which of course has slightly different bracketry and water pump clearance, hence the mods people need to do. Should be hopefully mounted tonight. I spent money on a new FPR that is slightly more compact than my Turbosmart FPR1200. The gauge has also been moved to the rail. There's also apparently an ORB to AN Union instead of the adapter, because the ~25mm of the current adapter is going to make the difference. Provided this all goes together and arrives today, it'll be the totally not stressful attempt to start it.
    • This seems like a pointless exercise. There is no E30 availability. Ongoing availability of E85 should not be assumed. Flex-fuel is the only sensible approach, so you can use E85 when and where you can get it, 98 when that's al you can get, and anything in between as you fill it up and drain it down. And if that means replacing the pumps, fitting a flex capable sensor/ECU/whatever has to be done to these Renault shitboxen, then.....so be it?
