Hi everyone,

As the post says, I have a stock* (lowered, larger intercooler, cat back) 1989 Gun metal grey R32 GTR, that I'd like to swap...or perhaps sell? (i don't really need the money lol)

Before, the car info:

The reason for the swap is that i'm in the army and i'm about to be posted to Darwin. I've just got back from a deployment and am just not enjoying the car like i use to and would rather a more comfortable everyday car, or perhaps another import (just not a skyline).

I'm after a swap because i'm in the middle of trying to sort out my relocation and just don't have the time/ patience to put the car up for sale, that and i just don't want to deal with the hassles either.

As mentioned, I just got back from deployment (3 weeks ago), there is no money owing on the GTR at all!

The GTR is immaculate, while i was away, i literally threw money at it lol

I've had the car completely over-hauled for everything and anything that needed replacing (I have reciepts)

So the car:

1989 Gun metal grey R32 gtr

Mods:

Lowered

Larger intercooler

Cat back exhaust, with small 3 inch muffler

- Has been fitted with full alarm system

- 40% window tint

Now, as for stock:

80,000km

There are no engine modifications!

Still runs stock turbos on 7psi

It still has the orginal airbox

Rolls on the original 16 inch wheels with new tread

I have all the reciepts, the import papers, workshop manuals and anything and everything since it came to australia.

I've had this car since march this year, was then deployed for 6 and half months and i've literally driven it for a month lol

So that's the break down, i just don't enjoy the car as much as I did, hence the desire for a swap.

If you have a nice clean newish car you'd consider swapping, then send me a pm, email or call me

Also, don't be stupid with this, i'm not going to swap a clean gtr for a ford fiesta or some VL commodore, reasonable/ realistic offers!

As for the car, it's located in Townsville, however, if a good deal arises, i'll take it back down to Brisbane.

Will be posting pictures tomorrow (i'm driving up from mackay right now as i'm typing this lol)

hey mate, sorry not another skyline, just a more everyday car

Hey mate I know you said not another skyline but would you be interested in an R32 4 door gtst? Considerably more comfortable and convenient than a GTR.

what about a civic with cash on top?

What type of civic? and how much cash adjustment?

If you have any photos, and information, could you email me?

Sorry mate, i'm looking towards getting out of the skylines completely, but thanks for the offer

If anyone would like anymore photos, or information regarding the GTR, just post, or email me

As for more information I forgot to mention.

It has rego until early next year, i think April 2013...i'll double check soon

The car came with subs, however, i've taken those out....just not a fan lol...however, there are two Amps, mounted under the front seats, the head unit plays DVDs on that little LCD screen lol

Also, if you've noticed the blitz controller, it's not hooked up, as mentioned, it only boosts 7psi, i tried ages ago, and it didn't do anything on either setting, so it's been disabled

And also, the car has been resprayed, I have the reciepts for that also

Anyway, my details are on the first post, if you're interested, email, message, etc

And just to clarify, I'm only interested in swapping for a car...sorry...not another skyline

proton with widebody airbag suspension etc and cash on top :P

Sorry mate, i can't do airbag suspension where i'm going (darwin is not airbag friendly lol), but thanks for the offer

Mate in all honesty bring the car up and enjoy it. Im currently up in darwin and we have a small good car scean here. I have yet to have any issues with police regarding driving a modded skyline. if you have lost intrest buy a daily, and keep it as is and look after it. As the skyline is comming on 25 years (then goes to classic) and if you keep it near stock it will go up in value. Also you will have opertunitys to drive it anger (if you so desire) at hidden valley race way (same track as V8) for as little as $60 per session (day).

hope that helps.

    • I know you don't want to hear this comment, but I can't not say it.  I just can't see 200kw being worth the time and effort. Its like guys with NA cars, putting in headers/exhaust/tune for a massive 20% jump in power. Great, the slow car is still slow and you're down $10,000.  My vote is leave it NA or price in a gearbox upgrade and shoot for at least 300KW, preferably 350KW+.  Now you have a NC that will try to kill you from time to time and will be exciting to drive
    • Ah yep. The main message I want to pass on is, try not to get scared of ghosts when thinking about knock/knock detection.  What I mean is, healthy engines make noise. Knock is also noise. Your knock sensor and ECU combo are trying to determine bad noise from good noise based on how loud the noise is. The factory knock sensors and ECU are not good at doing this.  Modern ECU's are pretty decent at it, however I'd still say that you would want to verify that if your ECU says it's knock, that you actually listen to it and confirm that it is correct.  Are you familiar with the plex knock monitor?  https://www.plex-tuning.com/products/plex-knock-monitor-v3/ I expect you're the type of person that would be very keen to play with something like this. It is great knock detection and you can pop some headphones on and listen to what's going on.  Knock that you've deliberately induced in low load low RPM areas is not really putting anything at risk and is a great tuning/learning/verification tool.  I just thought this was worth mentioning based on the way you were talking about setting up a base map and the Haltech base map settings. There are better ways to spend your time then chasing ghosts and worrying about detonation in scenarios that it is crazy unlikely to encounter it.  I was also wondering, what ECU are you planning to get? Will it be long til you pick it up?
    • This came quicker than I thought. It ain't even 2025 yet.
    • I somehow quoted my post instead of editing it. I regret nothing.
    • STOP GOOGLING FAB9 MAKE BORG WARNER EFR KITS FOR THE NC. THEY PACKAGE AN EFR 6758. DO NOTHING ELSE. CAPS INTENTIONAL. THE BEST RESPONSIVE SETUP EXISTS FOR YOUR CAR, AND HAS BEEN PROVEN FOR QUITE SOME TIME NOW. IN B4 "BUT I WANT EVEN MORE RESPONSE, IN A SIMPLER, MORE RELIABLE PACKAGE" WHICH IS A LS.
