Guys here it is,

I have sourced 1 BRAND NEW R35 GTR ENGINE (VR38DETT) w/ FRONT DIFFERENTIAL Included :P

The engine is 100% brand new sitting in a crate (only had the normal 500km or so done at the factory to run it in!)

The engine will not come with intercoolers, ECU, alternator, air conditioning pump ect. (this can all be easily sourced separately)

This is truly a once in a lifetime opportunity, you will know what I mean if you contact Nissan Australia and enquire about purchasing one from them!

Below are images of the actual engine (exactly what you will get) as you can see it includes EVERYTHING from turbo's, manifold to fuel rail even the differential for the front wheels is there.

Now I am not going to put down a price for it... give me a call and give me an offer, but please NO TIME WASTERS!

All offers of 20k+ will be considered.

CALL: 0401599023

PS: One has already been installed in Europe and works perfectly!

Hey guys,

The issue I have is there is no one else selling this in Australia and finding one overseas is extremely hard... so there is no way of me putting a price on one.

I want to see how much people will pay for one and if the price is right I will sell it!

If you have a look in the US and UK there was one that was on sale for USD$28,000 (came out of a car though) and in the UK just the block was $15,000.

The car itself costs AUD$160,000 here so a brand new engine w/ front diff would certainly be worth well over 20K I would assume.

But please... ALL REASONABLE OFFERS WELCOME!

With 500klm on it should get >20k easy

It would make a nice powerplant in any car, Ive been waiting for this to happen sooner as they are being crashed quite often Ive heard.

did this come out of a crashed r35 gtr?

This has not come out of a half cut or anything... it is a brand new engine never been fitted to an R35 :devil:

The engine is coming from a contact in Europe not Japan, and the 500km on it is what you will find with every single R35 you buy brand new from a dealership - I assume its how the Nissan factory insures that every engine is perfect.

only problem is fitting a gearbox to thhe r35 motor

Hey mate,

From what I understand connecting up a gearbox would require no major work aside from an adaptor to be made, the engine does not come with an ECU so there will be no errors coming of the original one when using a different gearbox.

But I will confirm this on Tuesday when I get the information from Europe.

If anyone has any information/articles regarding fitting an aftermarket gearbox to the R35 GTR if you could post some links that would be great.

  • 4 weeks later...
  • 10 months later...

with the european ones didnt they have a recall on them because of soft bearings? your one been rebuilt?

I will have to get back to you on that one - would not have a clue mate

You should put it in your maxima Brendan..lol

hahaha... I am considering turning the Maxima into a somewhat 'demo car' but probably stick to the de-tunned VQ30 for now thumbsup.gif

But yeah... a VQ38 in a Maxima never thought of that lol

dont think they are that hard to obtain, when i was at croydon late last year they had 3 in crates

Nice - what did they want for them?

    • Ducan , yeah sure mate , the unit is https://www.carlinkit.com/ambient TBox Ambient -  plugs straight into the USB C and it runs as a android  unit and you can link your phone to it via Bluetooth , but it only allows for one phone at a time. you can download and apk files you want and load it on there , I downloaded a basic maps apk (OsmAnd+ — Maps & GPS Offline) so I can run navigation without data usage , its not as good at google or wazes but it works fine for what I need. I can put up screen shots if you like. Cheers Pac   
    • Hey Team , just got the Fujitsubo unit installed , not a big db difference but it does sound better across the rpm range , I have the front pipe on order I'll post a video with sounds when that has also been installed.
    • The gearbox in my R32 GTS4 (now with RB25DET) has just over 300k on it . Life includes some track time. Has had one change of oil in its lifetime. I rev match on down changes. I don't have any problems with synchros or gear crunching.
    • Currently advertised with some A4 flyers up at work for $30k ono Will detail it next week, and get some good picks for carsales, then put the cover back on and put it back on the tender until someone comes to look at it No real hurry to sell, in saying this I would like it gone with in 6 months as I am retiring in May 25 and lose the ability to store the car undercover in a secured site, plus as we are moving out of Sydney the potential buyers market will be more limited https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/485907-2002-vx-ss-commodore-30000-ono/
    • I've worked around a crunchy/grindy gearbox for so long now that track instructors note how I have absolutely awful shifting habits. S L O W shifts and then blipping the throttle even on upshifts out of habit. My vote is R33 series 3 gearbox, those are still readily available and relatively cheap.
