Just bought myself an R32 GTR (on P plates.. durrrrr), she's in the garage now, but here's pics. Previously had two R32 Type M GTS-T's. Nothing compares to sitting in the GTR though - it feels alive and so much more... intimidating - even when it is off.

Big end gone, tossing up an RB30 block build, or finding an RB26 bottom end and dropping it in.

I have nicknamed her "Moth."

Why you ask?

'Cause that's all that's left in my wallet now. lol

Living in Hornsby, had it on the street with no plates for a day - nine auto salvage business cards on the windscreen within the morning.

Never doing that again.. hahaha

Ah well - let the game begin...

I restored the Key by painting the "R" in blood clear red, then scouring it down the key length with scotchbrite, leaves a nice machined look I reckon. Don't like shiny for some reason. (I know, is cracked a can of sads...)

Was sold on here by Member - "Moving on". Happy purchase, he was as honest and decent as anyone I could hope for.

And the Purchase made us both happy, but I think he's a tad upset.

But at least I ain't pulling it to bits for the money.

Unlike some of you vultures out there...

haha searching 'hornsby' on SAU doesn't bring me much =(

Herro Alex, I do know you're from round here too just never seen ya!

Look in the skyline's spotted thread.

My post shows all the ones I see here in hornsby, just from work. lol


I saw that onevia (Black one? Gold rims, massive camber) too, and a SilEighty.

the sileighty is red, real clean, with bronze LMGT4s. I think similar to mine, only comes out to play on weekends.

the onevia is purple with lots of stickers on the rear windscreen, massive camber and drift wheels (bbs fronts and ...something else rears?)

so...you work saturdays at bob jane?

Anyone here know the delete list for a street legal GTR?

No aircon, etc.

I don't know. My engine bay looks so cluttered compared to other street GTR's.

in summer a/c is gooood.

easiest way to free up space.

    • Sorry for reviving an old post, but I'm having the same hot idle tick issue. Did anyone ever find out what it was?  I have checked/ replaced Injectors Coils checked Lifter clerance (is at zero) Checked Cam lobes Replaced exhaust gasket and studs Would appreciate any advice this is driving me nuts  
    • There's a huge reason manufacturers are tuning in dead flat torque curves... Make them reliable (and more drive able)
    • What HVAC actuator is under the steering wheel? Do you mean on the RHS of the centre console, immediately to the left of your shin? If so, then yes, it is probably that one, because that is the mode door actuator, and from what I know, it's still a pain in the arse to replace. I don't know about whole dash out, but you certainly have to rip into the centre console section. I don't know if it's covered in the workshop manual, as I haven't spent much time looking at those parts of it. (and by "the workshop manual, I mean the R32 GTR one, which is the most comprehensive one we have, and it should be similar enough between that and later cars to serve as a guide).
    • ...oops. forgot the TCU end...
    • No I got mine from a friend that had fabricated one … but I had to fit it to my setup which was a hks turbo setup. His was a Garrett -7. So one of my turbos was not a flange for one side … then I had a leak in the welds I had to find a weld shut … in the end the setup was decent priced but I spent a lot to get it fitted. A couple companies I checked would make it but you’re talking 7-9k aud with titanium. No joke mine was 6-7k even second hand after I had to fit it in Hong Kong … labour is expensive here.
