1991 R32 GTR Australian Limited Edition Model

Australian spec cars not identical to Japanese spec

Model 40ZKBNR32RX

Chassis 016042

Build date 5/91

Confirmed in Nissan Tech Sheet T 434 1.8.91

Delivered by Alf Barbagallo Nissan in Perth Western Australia

Original manual and "how to drive your GTR" in leather compendium come with car.

I have owned the the car for 5 yrs having bought it after an idler pulley failure at 245,000km.

New RB26dett engine (3000km ago), clutch, brake rotors, pads and master cylinder have been fitted.

It is in excellent condition, drives very well, only needing some cosmetic improvements to be perfect.

I have many spares that could be part of a deal but will only sell the spares if the car is sold.

Spares include a complete engine needing head reconditioning. Short engine. 4WD R32 GTR gearbox. Nismo Group A spec RS 581 turbos. 700cc Sard injectors, Tomei cams. Aftermarket manifolds.

This is a rare, collectible car that will appreciate in the future but can be enjoyed and driven regularly now.

Also listed on Carsales.com.au and Unique Cars June Edition.

I would like a quick sale so asking $ 37,500

The first owner painted the car black after hitting a cat very early in the piece.

Apparently Black was a $5000 option.

I think all the Australian cars are a light grey under the bonnet.

The paint code KJ1G on the vehicle plate is for Jet Silver Metallic, not black that the car is painted. May explain the mis-matched engine bay colour.

Good luck with the sale.

Certainly not all silver under the bonnet, check the immaculate one for sale on the forum is still black under the bonnet. This is a great chance for someone to restore this thing and get a bargain.. Needing a full respray after hitting a cat though... Would be blown away if the front lip needed replacing..

First owner was apparently a well off dentist with a country practice in Bunbury.

I assume he actually wanted a black one in the first place.

Perhaps out of respect to the cat??

Under the bonnet certainly doesn't look as though its been changed.

That's my old car !

Can't believe it's been 5yrs since I had it up here on the forums for sale.

I still miss this one :(

The original motor clicked over 240,000kms before the idler pulley seized as the car was being parked. So valves will be bent in the old motors head. Worth grabbing the old engine so as to have matching numbers.

The dodgy on the paint code may have something to do with the owner previous to me having a this car and a silver one. The silver one had a black paint code from memory.

Is the new motor a reconditioned one Frank?

Someone buying this car will certainly be getting a nice GTR. Having owned a few , this one is my favorite. :D

Hi

Glad to hear you are still around. Time flies. I think its 5 yrs next month.

Certainly is your old car.

There was some head damage but basically it was quicker to get another motor at the time.

Planned to rebuild the old one with all the good bits but one of those things that hasn't happened.

Certainly have all the bits to build a really good one.

I would imagine whoever bought the GTR would want at least the old block.

The new motor is a R33 GTR. RB26dett

Rings, bearings and turbos overhauled. Goes very well.

Getting almost the same hp you were getting with just a little extra boost and a fairly standard motor.

GTR still goes well. Nice and tight. Scary fast.

Got in touch with the original owner's son who told me it was his mother's car mainly.

She had it painted black.

Like to sell to someone who will appreciate her.

Hi,

Do you still have your car?

Perhaps the cars could catch up?

Does anyone want to give me an offer???

:action-smiley-069:

This car probably sat next to mine in the dealership.

Free bump, great price.

This car is still for sale.

Asking $35,000 or near offer.

These are now quite rare. Cheap price due to r33 rb26dett engine and black paint.

Good value

Frank

    • Hi everyone, I’m Dave from Canberra. Here's a few pics of my 1992 R32 GTST coupe which I imported back in 2006. Only mods so far are HKS Hi-power cat back exhaust, K&N filter, ATC Volanti steering wheel, Pioneer stereo, amp and sub. This was my daily driver up until 2015 and sadly hasn’t been driven at all in the last 5 years due to marriage, work, and kids taking up most of my time and spare cash.As such its in need of a bit of TLC and one of my goals for this year is to get it back to running condition and maybe look into club/historic rego. I’ve joined SAU so I can ask a few questions along the way (although I promise to google Current Problem +SAU beforehand!)
    • From talking to the mx5 guys the NC doesn't actually need bonnet vents like the earlier NA and NB models, due to a better designed cooling system and undertray design There's plenty of them used as street cars and weekend track toys running anywhere from around 170 to 250kw with stock non vented bonnets, I initially was going to get some bonnet vents, but, as they are not actually required, I'll put vents on hold for a while and just monitor temps, though I do need to get something to actually monitor engine oil temps though, coolant temp can be pulled from the OBD2, but the oil gauge in the car is not actual oil temp, it is only a calculation based off coolant temp and RPM ☹️ They do recommend upgrading the radiator, which I have already done with a triple pass, and the only other thing they recommend for a street car is heat management, like I talked about above to protect bits in the engine bay from radiant heat, and to either replace the nearly 20 year old plastic coolant expansion tank, which I have done, or get a aftermarket alloy jobbie for some bling They did also say that if I wanted to track the car on occasion a oil cooler and sump baffle would be required, and as I already have had a sump baffle installed when the engine was out......... I'm going to get a oil cooler with a thermostat....... just in case I do eventually track the car, but probably not, but still maybe...🤪
