Hey all,

I bought an R32 GTR a couple months or so ago, but last weekend the engine decided to die, big style! So I am now on the look-out for a new one. Preferably with some mods done eg. forged rods and pistons, bearings etc. Not after a gearbox or anything else like that except maybe a turbo upgrade but that is less important. Also after a decent oil pump.

Let me know what you guys have!

Or failing that I would be looking for somewhere in the Townsville/ Queensland to get my engine rebuilt with forged rods and pistons etc. if anyone knows a decent place I could get one done let me know!!

Thanks...

I live in townsville but could always freight the motor down to brisbane. I have had a look around for rebuild prices up here so I am just trying to compare them to a full replacement engine but will see how the prices turn out and what I have to do with my motor to get it running again. I should be able to get the motor out myself, so can just send it on a pallet or something to a shop to be rebuilt...

I will give them a look see and ask for a price...

    • It's the adhesive holding the ceramic wheel to the shaft the fails on 90% of them.
    • Foreign debris, physical shock, boost leak, could be anything honestly. The danger in taking all the timing out of a tune/hitting the R&R corner is that even if the engine doesn't detonate your turbo is taking a lot of abuse from high EGT. Also, even if nothing goes wrong it is a journal bearing that is spinning at 100k RPM on boost. Eventually it goes through enough cold start/pressure cycles to wear it out.
    • I kinda accidentally saw this, and was interested, but It actually seems to replaces the whole center computer, using the existing screen and buttons. AND it may only be for a G37 and not compatible with a Japanese 370. So its not for me, but someone else may be interested to look into it. Its about $680USD. If I am understanding it right, it basically replaces/installs and android pc that integrates with the existing screen. But I could be wrong. https://gromaudio.com/vline/ The video I first saw was the following, with very little and unclear details.     Even if your not interested in the system, the video on their site was pretty comforting in showing how simple the whole centre comes out
    • hfygrte52 what side you looking for? Do you care what color car it's off? Found a white LH side on here: https://skylinespares.com.au/product/nissan-skyline-r33-coupe-rear-tail-light/   Aussie parts place but will ship to USA. Maybe get it before there's a tarrif on 25yo shit box parts
    • I’m with Shannon’s for all 5 of our cars. Agreed values seem fair, premium price is okay. ($210 ish a month, all comprehensive).  Have claimed once with them for a not at fault claim with another car where my car had no damage. Was one call after the incident and an email after. Deemed not at fault so premium didn’t go up either.    I have called up and spoken with people who are not familiar with certain cars and didn’t agree with me on value or let their personal vehicle preferences effect the call. But called back later and got someone else who was more agreeable.
