Why Is Every Second R32 Gtr Owner Returning Their Car To Standard?

[(OO)SKYLINE(OO)]

Yeah, mean put stock restrictor back in.

The oil cooler i have is a TRUST GREX unit.

And most importantly - no sorry no larger pics.

Will find one though :-)

Ok,

So how much boost does the R32 GTR N1 run with the restrictor in and how much does it run with the restrictor out?

All I know the R34 GTR N1's ran 1.2 Bar (17 PSI) from factory with restrictor in.

Are we talking similar readings with the R32 GTR N1's?

I assume you put it back in to preserve what it is..?

Please do find LARGER PIC of GTR butt cheek.

Hehe!!

[WHITE R32]

Sorry no idea about the boost without restrictor.

I've only had the car dyno'd with an old HKS boost controller which was switched off and not working. It made 10psi and held it.

as for the blank plate instead of radio controlls, only the N1's and NISMO versions had them.

Wouldn't worry about trying to make one though, as Nissan Japan have them in stock.

Cheers

Yeah cool!

Ah yeah that's right, N1's had no radio, so no radio controls LOL!

[blur]

N1s also dont have a rear wiper switch, to match the lack of rear wiper!

[gtr fan]

Keep it and enjoy it, sounds like a nice unit. If you want to send something back to make money send a 240/260Z. They are nuts for them.

I think there is real interest at the moment for stockers, maybe there is some older money coming out.

Collectable 32s would be the N1's. Anything in dark blue. ADM's. Some of the crazy ones like the evolutions (theres one on here somewhere) and limited versions and to a lesser extent the Vspec2's.

FYI, there are 2 adms for sale. Both black. One has mods (silly boy) for $40k and the other is a stocker, very clean for $65k. Not a patch on their original asking price but still a very desirable car.

I have had an aussie delivered GTR for 7 years now. It only has 134,000km but I have been modding it as things wear out. So far suspension brakes, computer, boost controller, injectors and exhaust. They do need wider wheels so changed those as well. Have all original parts except injectors.

About to replace turbos as I don't want the ceramic ones to crap themselves one day (which is bound to happen given it is a 19 yo car).

Whilst non modded aussie delivered GTR's are probably prefferred, it would be hard to maintain with factory turbos, suspension etc.

P.S. Your burgundy one looks nice!

My mine has plug over where the rear wiper should be.

[NISMO]

Brendan,

Your's is the ex Apexi (i think) drag car, correct?

Its very possible that they used an N1 as the base of the car. I'm purely guessing due to your wiper comment and from your pic i can see it has the N1 lights.

Can you check/remember if the last two letters in your Chassis # are "ZN" or "ZY"?

Thanks man. I was very lucky only having to replace the wheels for stockers when I bought mine. It has 95k with books, original sales slip and the leather GT-R owners folder and manual. If you are replacing items in preventative terms I would hang onto the originals. I think these cars are going to be worth a bomb in the years to come. How much did you pick yours up for? PM if you like.

This topic seems right up my alley. As most of you, i love R32 GT-Rs.

My vision of the ideal R32 GT-R would be:

- extremely clean

- replacement of various parts with new factory/nismo items (carpet, trim pieces etc)

- NISMO LMGT4's (or possibly TE's)

- adjustable coils

- new clutch

- N1 body styling

obviously a few aftermarket goodies and such..

but that would be my ideal 32

So a full NISMO body kit with a set of LMGT 4's / TE 37's.

Yeah, same here.

Basically. That would be pretty much perfect. simple styling mods. Very clean inside with replacing of carpet/mats/trim etc
