Replica is based on a non complianced, non complianceable Sep 1993 GTR with pull type clutch

Engine was purchased in 2007 as a brand new R33 24U N1 crate engine & was fitted into the car in Japan. As most people are aware these engines are/were over $15-20,000 new and a bare replacement engine block alone fetches over $3000 if you can get hold of one - utilising a stronger thicker 'motor-sport casting', obviously fitted with low cavitation N1 racing waterpump, N1 high volume oil pump& Nismo thermostat; Fully balanced forged crankshaft with longer oil drive snout. (eliminating most of the problems associated with early R32 GTR RB26 engines).

When we got the car we fully rebuilt the engine using Ross Racing Pistons, ACl Race Series Bearings & Gaskets with a 1.3mm Permaseal MLS-R multi layer steel head gasket. Engine was Bored .5mm to increase capacity& torque; fully balanced & blueprint assembled.

Head is Std N1 item with N1 Cams, and has aftermarket cam gears attatched, but not yet adjusted from stock position. Engine pipes are polished, and has a full set of powder-coated rocker covers (although not shown all on there). Has brand new Gates racing timing belt, with new Genuine Timing idler & Tensioner bearings. Car comes with but not yet fitted 50mm Aluminium radiator, & gates racing radiator hoses. Car is fitted with a HKS Hard piping kit & Greddy remote oil filter & large front mounted oil Cooler.

Car features Nismo G-Max twin plate clutch & short shifter, is fitted with Nismo 300km Dash; Fully adjustable top camber arms, Adjustable Caster rods & sounds great through a 4" exhaust. Car also has an adjustable 4wd controller, adjusting the amount of drive given to the front of the car (however this has not been used since being installed).

Car is painted in the Infamous 1992 Gibson motorsport touring car champion Livery; However still requires front air ducts to be fitted to front bar & front lip to be installed. Along with a set of N1 sideskirts.

With the original car now being valued close to $1.5Mil it is a great opportunity to get a Replica at a fraction of the price, add this to your private collection or race it on weekends.

Car is Semi race prepped, has had all interior sound deadening removed - but does not have a roll cage or race seat (Has std GTR Buckets fitted currently)

Car does have a race harness fitted; unsure of which wheels will come with the car (as has very ugly 18" wheels that detract from the appeal of this car that are fitted currently with 18" Slicks). We have some other sets of wheels, that may suit the livery better; but this will be open to negotiation by the winning bidder.

We have spent far too much on the car and cannot afford to continue with it any further (would not like to put a figure on the costs so far). Buyer will be getting a bargain with a realistic reserve set. Please do not ask what the reserve is set at. If you are serious about owning this car, then your first bid will break through the reserve.

Happy bidding.

Can anyone help with an idea of what it is worth?

Cheers

In current guise its neither an arse nor an elbow. It isnt a street car and it certainly isnt a race car.

Yes its worth more than the 10 g that the lowballin fat man claims but not much more.

Either finish it as a track weapon or part it out as that is the only way you'll get any money for it.

20k? Unregister able standard GTR with built motor and paint, its hardly a replica... no cage.. no sus.. no wheels

+1

I can paint my GTR with those colours and decals and call it a "Winfield Replica".

nice ad, would lowball again A++++++++++++++++++++

those wheels look like the ones you get from bob jane in a set with tyres for $400 bucks loool. If you're hellbent on selling it, I hope you have receipts for all those parts! may as well keep it or transplant motor etc into a registered car

    • This is a real nostalgia trip for me, I mean SK Bilsteins? I ran those lol Good times.  Good work Duncan, it's not an easy job in many respects. I'm sure the family appreciates it. 
    • It's not a dumb question. I was circling this idea myself. User error is always possible!
    • Nope. The seal is in the drive. A new cable would just fill up and continue to convey oil to the speedo head. To check if this is what is happening, take the cluster out, dismantle the speedo and have a look. You probably don't even have to dismantle it. If there is oil coming up the cable, the drive into the speedo will be grossly greasy. I had to manually (and delicately) clean the gunk out of my speedo.
    • Thanks for the quick response mate, and I agree Nismo 555s, Z32 and high flow 2871 in OP6 housing (run by PowerFC) would all be "period correct" and should be a simple, reliable and reasonably quick track car.
    • It is normal for a speedo to read 0-10% high (unfortunately), intended by manufacturers and ADRs (although not in this case) to ensure your speedo does not read low if your tyres are worn. Speaking of which, what size tyres do you have on the rear, and what does they tyre placard say you should have? you can use this https://tiresize.com/calculator/ to determine what % difference that is causing Personally, when I buy tyres for a car I buy a size that will bring the speedo back to being more accurate; it if it reads 5% high I buy tyres that are 5% larger diameter. If you had an electronic speed sender like R33 onwards, the other option is to add a speedo adjuster but that won't work in R32. Finally, you  might be able to find a different sized gear for the speedo sender but that will be limited to what already exists (and I don't know what sizes do)
