Hey guys,

this is an eoi on my R32 gtr. I bought it to fix then keep. Always wanted one and wanted it to be perfectly clean and spectacular.

The interior looks as if it's never been touched, only mod is a kenwood headunit. The rest is stock and perfect. Has a factory optioned 320km nismo cluster.

Car has a genuine 51,000km on it, was imported in 07. Car is dead clean. not a mark on it. only exterior mod are some blitz wheels with brand new 255/40 federals on them.

The car was in storage for a long time before I got my hands on it, and the motor hadn't been turned over for some time, consequently it is now broken and in bits. Everything is included to put motor back together, needs to be oversized and new pistons. rods/crank/bearings etc are all ok.

I am chasing $12,000 ono. Realisticly, spend $1500-$2000 to get the motor fixed up and back together. And you've got yourself a superbly clean R32 GTR for next to nothing realisticly.

I don't want to sell it, but could use the money for other stuff and don't really have the time to finish this car with all the drifting/fixing the drift car that I seem to be doing these days!

here is the only pic I have of it atm, it's dusty as in the pic, had been sitting for about 1.5 months.

also, the car has rego till november. full complied obviously. Can also deliver to sunny coast/brisbane/gold coast as I have a car trailer.

the engine had pod filters. that is all.

it is a 93 model I think? I can check it tomorrow when the sunlight comes back, it has it on the approval plate.

And I can take some more pics tomorrow, but only iphone pics. :)

here are a few more pics, pics are epicly dodgey, and car is really really dirty. getting washed this weekend :blink:

and seems it's 58,000km not 51,000. my mistake!

AFAIK this one was not for sale before I bought it, I bought it via word of mouth, and it was never on the sunshine coast.

Motor is in bits, block is still in car, sump is off, as is head and inlet side. Do not ask me why the previous owner decided to pull it down this way, guess he thought it was fixable leaving the block in the car? Either way, motor is pulled down, and all inspections are more than welcome.

I might also add, the photos show the car in it's current condition, the car has been sitting in a carport under a car cover for 8 months. I haven't washed it or prettied it up for any of these photos. It really is alot cleaner than it looks in these photos. :whistling:

emmalah - no swaps. I have enough cars/projects/dailys/trailers etc. :thumbsup:

mike - depends on how you go about it, set of forged pistons can be had for ~$800 with rings, bore the block and buy a headgasket and piece her back together, it can be done that cheap. Set of bearings is $200, so might as well do them whilst you're at it. Sub 2k, you can have a rebuilt motor with forged pistons in a dead clean GTR r32.

The rego expires on 29/11/2010 :wacko: So still a few months left on this bad boy :no: Number plates are off in the photos as they are fresh issued, and I didn't see the point in attaching them to a car that doesn't run, so they've been sitting in my toolbox. :D

Couple of keen people have been pming/calling. :) freight is not as issue. I have a car trailer and can take the car to a depot to have it shipped, But keep in mind that you will also need to factor in the cost of a small pallet freight for the head/inlet plenum etc that is no longer attached to the engine, I will not put these items in the car, it will make the interior dirty and I just couldn't do it. Small pallet freight will only be about $60-$90 anyway. :)

Also, for $17k I can have this car running with a spare Rb26dett out of an R33 gtr that I have. Has recently been overhauled, new rings/bearings, stock internals, good condition motor, 160psi across all 6. As I work in an import workshop and play with these things all day, the install will be to an OEM standard and everything will be done right. That's another option if you are interested in a running car, I would need a hefty deposit (at least 10%) to do this, as unless I'm guaranteed a sale, there is no point in me putting in the hard yards!

    • Thanks for your insight, it being basically useless will impact my decision for sure. I thought it may help the engine breath better I guess. But then again, I have also been told that tuning an RB20DE is also not worth it. Exactly, we follow EU Regulations. There is a bit more leeway on older vehicles. My Porsche 924 came without a cat from factory and managed to pass, they still mentioned that I have quite high emissions on it though.
    • My apologies, I stand corrected. Thanks for registering to mention this! And thank you for actually reaching out to the council to clarify. This is the sensible thing to do and the opposite of what I was alluding you were doing. I may have seen too much outrage and hate being fueled on the internet and it has made me a somewhat cynical old man. Sometimes it is easy to forget that there are real people behind websites and accounts. In my defence, CarExpert and CarExplore do read quite similarly at a glance. I shall try and do better in the future. (Please stick around to get the latest scoops on dealing with old Nissan shitboxes )
    • Don't bother. The poor little RB20 doesn't make enough gas flow to challenge the flow capabilities of even the littlest cat, and you won't make any extra power, and all you'll do it soot up your rear bumper. Plus....is Malta not runing under Euro regs?
    • Hey Daniel, sorry to hear that and thanks for posting up for us at a really hard time I only knew SmoothLine through the forums, we never met as we are based in different states, but when he was most active on here he was quite a while back so not many of the current crowd might remember him. I am pretty sure he was active in the Queensland SQU club but that is defunct now too (times are changing and we are all getting older). Farewell SmoothLine!    
    • Turns out depending on whether the car was equipped with TCS or not there are different signals coming to the dash, meaning there are different speedo clusters.  Wired in a speedo calibrator box from aliexpress and now works fine.
