Hey guys

Seriously thinking of selling my R32 which I've owned for almost 10 years now.

Was a show car then stripped down for a full rebuild into an immaculate streeter.

Want to invest some more money in the business so time to sell some toys.

R32 GTS shell (stripped down to bare metal repaired and currently in hi fill)

R32 GTR front and rear guards (all genuine parts)

R32 GTR front bar

N1 Side skirts

Carbon roof overlay (real carbon not vinyl shit)

Carbon front lip

Carbon GTR bonnet

Carbon boot lid

Carbon GTR wing

Carbon N1 boot lip

Removed rear tow hooks and holes in bar plastic welded

N1 rear window (no wiper)

Car is getting painted R35 GTR Titanium Grey after new years.

All inner guards and under body painted in fresh under body black.

Full (EVERYTHING) re-trim in black leather with carbon fibre accent pieces

R34 GTR style seats

Brand new B/C pillar trims

Immaculate dash

Brand new black carpet

Immaculate un-cut wiring harnesses

No bogy half assed wiring here

Only thing this car needs is a crazy engine and gearbox and it will be one of the neatest R32s on the road.

Ideally id like 10-12K.

Yes price is high for a roller but It is a completely rebuilt fresh car.

And paint work is worth 10K alone.

No hidden repairs filled with bog, accident damage, shitty paint or worn trim, etc, etc.

Its like getting in a brand new car.

never gonna happen mate

but good luck

Thanks for your input buddy, regardless of how useless it may be.

Actually had a guy come look at it yesterday and make an offer.

sorry did'nt mean to be negative

it was just stating fact it aint a gtr so it's just a roller that is missing more than a motor and box

paint jobs don't really add value to a car let alone a shell that is goin to need many more thousands before it's complete

as most people who buy shells have big plans

but then again you never know

and wtf is a gronk

Edited by Striker86

1. no one said it was a GTR so I don't know what you're getting at there?

2. For someone who wants a perfect car it will add value.

I know if I was planning on building a streeter I would rather pay more for a car thats been stripped back to bare metal than a heap of shit thats full of bog and rust.

To go and strip a 32 to bare metal and repair any damage and paint it so its like new is gonna cost an easy 20k.

Its not full of rust and shitty repairs, and covered by multiple layers of mis-matched paint like most R32s going round for under 10k.

3. When i say all it needs is an engine and box thats all it needs. I don't see how you can say it needs more than that when you don't know the car.

Its slightly more than a roller considering its only 2 months away from being a complete car minus engine and box.

Like I said the car has everything, suspension, brakes, A/C, heater, wiring, glass etc etc etc.

Oh and BTW here is the definition of GRONK

Well, i hear the word gronk everyday and this is my understanding of the meaning

Said by a male: usually means your an a-hole or a d-head

Said by a female: usually means your a sleaze

The term gronk is more commonly used by middle-eastern teens

Thanks dude.

Apparently I'm a dreamer.

Some guys on here who have no idea on ho much it costs to build cars would prefer a rust bucket to start a build.

I think I'm going to keep it though, but I guess if the right money comes along ill let it go.

Try this bloke, he has a more realistic budget than most dreamers on here regarding how much it cost to build a decent car...

And even then your shell is a bargain for whats included in asking price...

Maybe chuck some pictures of interior fit out up as i recall that being a work of art in itself...

Is this shell still for sale ??

yea mate, i have someone who is pretty much ready to buy it, just waiting for his other car to sell.

But no deposit has been taken yet.

Where's the car upto in terms of being finished ??

Do you know if you can just bolt up a GTR driveline straight into it?

How long are you going to wait for this other buyer ??

    • Shove more foam in it as a minimum if you possibly can. Or steel wool (not the stuff with soap on it!) Baffles / getting the oil out of the air is huge, and should be done at both the cam cover, and the catch can.   I'm about to do a power steering reservoir, and even that needs some thought to make sure air is separated from the oil, to stop evil Cavitation. I'll probably look at doing my own catchcan later on too.
    • I was once told, who it was I'm to old to remember, that the length of the OEM wheels brace supplied with a vehicle is designed long enough for a average person to apply enough torque to do up, and undo the wheel nuts to the specified torque  What a average person is is anyone's guess though, i.e. average fat bastard, average knuckle head, average perfect sized human......like me Unless of course, a tyre shop has ugga dugga'd them up to "torque to yeild/strip" specs, used cross threading as natures lock tight, or a big breaker bar was used to tighten them up to get some nice stretch in the poor old wheel studs Me, I torque wheel nuts to 1 elbow joint click, lower torque settings are based of wrist clicks, higher torque settings are based of shoulder clunks, or total dislocation for anything that requires all of the torques 
    • I think the catch can design is pretty flawed. Evident in the fact that the V2 one moved to a larger top mounted filter which alone would have helped with overflow and reduce restrictions compared with the side filter. I also imagine there was a major improvement to the baffling design. It is worth mentioning that this catch can with the RB20 was never as much of an issue and the high kms RB25 is likely a part of the problem. I have gotten quotes for both a new "Vibrant Gen 3" catch can and to modify this existing ones but that may have to wait until after the track day. I hope the sump/head breathers/drains and cam splash plates will be enough
    • Yep, both. The ratio is 1.8 instead of OEM being 1.7. The rocker bodies are modified with a larger bolt hole and re-threaded with 10mm holes instead of the 8mm YT has stock. Finding out they don't actually fit the stock castings cause a lot of un-impressment by the person in the USA who tapped the new holes for the 'upgraded' YT product. He was very unhappy with them given their previous design did not require 'clearancing'
    • That too, but I think this is why she's put the work into the cam cover baffles. I mean, a catch can should only need to be a catch can, not an oil air separator also. Not to say that putting the effort into having it do a better job of oil-air sep is a waste of time, but doing the sep earlier is always going to make life better. And that should happen now anyway.
