Mohsen it's a farkin 32 not an xy gt. quit making all these gay dream plans and just get it on the road with fresh interior stuff and a respray.

Lol, f**k no. Might as well put in the extra work and do it

Right instead of slapping it together just to get it on the road.

She's not that bad, her eyebrows and serious expression in every photo just reminded of Uncle Leo and the arm tatt is bit...yeah. Would like to see her smiling in a photo...

EDIT: slightly better photos on her FB page.

Disagree re: r32 plan

Harder and harder to find a r32 which hasn't gone down the cheap thrashed path. It is better to see a clean r32 than some cheap and nasty with power because that power is nothing spectacular so it's lose-lose.

My opinion would be to restore a r32 gtr but 4dr's provide a different view

Good luck with the rebuild, in 5-10years time when everyone has moved on to their family/boring cars you will have something which wasn't discarded because of the cheap thrash mentality.

Similar example; look at all the kingswoods being restored. Everyone looking for shells including the basic 6cyl models.

Tl;dr

so its more like an investment?

Lol no. It's at the tipping point where there are no more clean r32's. p-platers can't buy them and full license holders don't bother.

Give it a couple more years and they will all be rusting away.

I actually share the same mentality with R33 GTS-Ts. As common as they are, look at all of them...thrashed out, modified to the shit. There's hardly any examples left that don't have a myriad of problems, are smashed up or look like ass. One day a genuinely low km clean example will fetch a fair bit, simply because of the rest...

    • Probably a smart choice to buy one vs build, purely for the motivation part as you said! Imagine the metal dust everywhere from grinding all the steel to build one. Ha ha ha!   Also, post a photo of your garage.   Mine is below, this is where I've been cleaning and have already half filled a caged 6*4 trailer. And this is after my cleaning expedition mentioned previously... The middle normally has a car in it, but I'm dumping things in the middle as I sort through them. And poor skyline was dusty and has had the lightest few drops of rain and now it looks atrocious and needs to be dragged back out and washed thoroughly! And yes to the right is technically another bay, you really can only see 2 bays out of 3 in this picture.  
    • It's more like on average the things I see a lot of things going wrong. Yes, usually the people who reach out are the ones who are having problems but on average it feels like mechanics and tuners here aren't really competent. I swing between thinking my standards are just way too high and wondering whether people really are just this dumb. I just had the strangest 10+ reply argument on a Facebook group over someone insisting that the factory R34 GTT boost control solenoid reduces boost pressure to 5 psi when it's on and raises boost pressure to 7 psi when it's off despite showing the exact plumbing in the factory service manual and the solenoid behavior detailed in the FSM.
    • I steam cleaned my near new set of volk gtc wheels 14 years ago and farrkkked them lol. The clear coat cracked like spider webbing in several areas. Lesson learnt don't do that. 😭
    • If you don't touch the CAS, then you're fine.
    • Yeah, my moulds and seals are 32 years old now. I think I will continue to not use a pressure washer on it.
