Hey guys I have a r32 sedan MAYBE up for grabs. Now just to make a few things clear i LOVE this car to bits, I have spent 1000's on it and will not let it go cheap if no one pays or offers another car of value to me plus cash i will not seperate . My reasons for sale are

1. I want to buy a house and the only way to get the money together would be to seperate with the 32

2. I travel at least 60k to work 7 days a week and some days 120k

3. As i travel alot its not ideal (easy to speed and be a numpty in, bit bumpy as its low, defectable)

4. MONEY its a skyline while i get 400ks to a tank its always bp ultimate ran through it which adds up quite quick with all the travel

If i havent scared you off yet lets get into the good stuff.

ENGINE / RUNNING GEAR-

-S1 RB25 Conversion done before i bought it. Believed to have 130000k. Runs beautifully and has buckets of power

-Turbosmart manual boost controller, Running 11PSI of boost

-Previous owner said it was tuned to 211kw, I have no dyno sheets for proof BUT can see it does pull very hard

-Serviced every 5000k with quality nulon oils and additives , expect the gearbox and diff which runs with redline shockproof (only serviced twice in my ownership)

-Diff has just been reshimmed very tight and never singles, Only skips when pulling out of the driveway when cold

-STD turbo

-Cold air box with a pod inside

-Clutch went pop around 5000k ago replaced with extreme HD, POS rb20 box went a week later

- 80000k RB25 box conversion was put in by me. Speedo conversion done,Solid shifter bush, new slave, custom tailshaft, custom crossmember, done about 4500k

-Very large FMIC

-3'' stainless blitz exhaust sounds very tough but not over the top, also have a 4" jasma exhaust to

I feel like there is a few things im missing but a start

BRAKES / SUSPENSION / BODY

-I recently just did the brake system on the sky which included. R33 GTR slotted and cross drilled rotors up front, Slotted back, EBC Redstuff pads on all corners, new fluid and bled. The most responsive brakes i have used, they are brilliant 2 weeks old

-Shortened shocks and springs which sits very low but not ridiculous, all shocks in good nic

-20 percent window tint all round looks moist

-Paint is very fresh and is a custom respray in Mazda 3 red paint code 27a, Brilliant red which glitters in the sun

-All four guards have been rolled and flared HEAPS had 9.5 all round at one point

-Sparco ns11 wheels on atm 8.0" on front 9" at back which doesnt do the flared guards justice but suit the car well

- Tein Adjustable camber arms front and rear

-stock kit (my favourite personally)

INTERIOR AND STEREO

Interior lets this car down a bit, missing vents, slight bubble in dash suppose it is an 89 model

-Sport wheel

-33 seat (lumber support)

-Kenwood headunit with aux

-2 2000w earthquake amps one monoblock one 4 channel

-2 kenwood 1200w subs

- alpine type s splits all round with tweeters up front

Radical sound system

$12000.

Please dont tell me if you think this is overpriced, I dont car what you think as i dont want to let it go unless i get what i want I AM IN NO HURRY and as stated its a EOI. Every time i go out and see this car i smile, I just love the 4dr look and it would be an incredible shame to see it go but i would like to buy espcially while the home owner grant is around still. SA REGO BTW

Okie dokie, some mods i forgot

So the HD clutch crapped out, Just put a Jim berry full monty clutch in rated for 350kw. Stock pedal feel with a button feeling to it if that makes sense.

-bosch 044 fuel pump

-hicas lock bar

-R33 front LCA's

-Tein Castor rods

-nolathane control arm bushes

-Rack spacers

-Cradle bushes + pineapples + cradle mods

-40mm spacers in the back now

-gtr bonnet

-Dildo shifter

Now i understand 12 is a bit steep so price drop down to 10500. My phone doesnt take a great pic but here are some snaps

Cheers buddy! Got to stop spending money on it !

Just got new

-tie rod ends

-steering rack mount bushes ( made an incredible difference)

-two front tyres fitted

-wheel aligned at the front

also found a 4" jasma exhaust in the shed as well !

Someone make an offer e.g minus sound system 10g.post-87113-0-48318300-1360827020_thumb.jpgpost-87113-0-76641800-1360827035_thumb.jpgpost-87113-0-44696500-1360827047_thumb.jpgpost-87113-0-20169700-1360827060_thumb.jpgpost-87113-0-10531100-1360827070_thumb.jpgpost-87113-0-12086800-1360827007_thumb.jpg

Oh and fresh 3 months SA rego went on a week ago

    • 65601-05U00 is the hood latch. 62550-08U31 is the support that holds it to the radiator core support. They are all super discontinued so I don't really have any great leads on how to source this stuff.
    • GTSBoy on your suggestion on another thread I had a look at those injectors and ended up getting them because of the quality.  Got the expensive ones.  
    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
