yeah its true, there are very few clean tidy r32's around these days, and if you do find one, you'll pay through the nose for it. thats why i've been hanging on to my r32 because i just cant be sure i'll find another one in acceptable condition.

to be honest, i would seriously look at importing if you cant find any tidy ones locally, although theres a lot of rules which govern which imports can and can not be registered here. i think many r32's now are able to come in because once a vehicle reaches a certain age it is able to do so, but ONLY IF it DID NOT leave it's country of origin BEFORE the cut off date. i've noticed a lot of early r32 gtr's have been coming in in the last year or two.

regardless, don't be in a rush to buy anything. let your cash save up until one comes up that really sticks out at you. thats the advice i wish someone gave me anyway

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      The cam I am actually putting in (a few posts up) is actually smaller than my current one. At least duration/overlap wise. All the chop stuff I hear just sounds like an engine running badly, because it is. I then envision driving it around in 1st gear and being massively sad about it bucking to the beat of said chop. There is an idle video of someone with a similar cam floating around the internet, but mine is a custom cam (so is his) so it'll never be the same, plus the fact exhausts are entirely different. What I want to do is put some bullet mufflers/race mufflers in to replace a couple sections straight pipes that currently replace the two extra cats that I don't need. But this is even further down the line!

      I can tell you now, when the bracket that the little hydraulic ram attaches to snaps, with a subframe, and V8 from an AMG C63 on it, it sounds like someone letting shotgun off right beside you. It leaves your ears ringing, and a huge thankfulness that you never ever put a body part under something heavy that's only supported by a hydraulic lift...

      Water leaking into the rear trunk

      By Neostead2000 · Posted

      Still not a guarantee fix. I used a high quality butyl-mastiq (the black goo that's not really silicone nor polyurethane, same stuff they use from the factory that just spreads out like melty cheese), and I still get lots of water on both sides of the trunk when raining or washing the car. I also suspect the factory spoiler rubber gasket might not be sealing well, so I'm thinking of adding a thin layer of grey silicone around the bolt holes on both sides and see if that's where it also leaks from. The biggest issue is that these cars don't come with a drain hole on each side like other coupes and hatchbacks.
