Hi everyone currently looking for a r32 gtr,ive been reading heaps of your reveiws on sydney imports eg top secret, iron cheif.

Just wondering if annyones got anny positives and negatives about edward lees imports.

And also do these dealerships offer finance, warrenty,servicing etc.

Top secret and edward lees are looking more apealing online as i have not met in person. If use could help me decide which dealers are worth while to visit that would be much apreciated. Thanks

Xtreme Motorsport on parramatta road seem to be the most honest of the import dealers in sydney and so are jap link motors in rydlemere

Do a search on the forum about some of the dealers and it might be a bit of an eye opener

How impatient are you? If you're in no rush, then you can ask Iron Chef to look for the car you want. Or you can browse locally as well (saves you waiting).

That was my next Question. What is the avarage km on the odo that a 1994 r32 gtr is ment to have. Some are like 80,000 and even less then 50.how is this possible.

98% are, as dif said, wound back.

the other 2% are generally from Japanese collectors who have decided to sell.

Bez,

Read the Subforum "Importing Vehicles" > "If You're Happy With Your Import Car, Who Brought It In?"

There's a head count there over a broad spectrum of people. And you can join the dots to determine who isn't on that head count.

The head count is constantly updated.

Buy bobs , cleanest jdm 32 Gtr in sydney

Ta.......

I just did some quick sums on 4 toys plus a daily....... Insurances, regos and lease repayments and fuel $37K per year total. Wasn't game to factor in maintenance!

No wonder I can't sit down.

Thanks terry i will check it out.

Hi bob as good as it sounds i wouldnt be able to pay for car out right, im looking to finance as im a bit impacient to come up with the other half.

Is that the gtr your looking to sell in your display picture.

No..... That's my ADM....Not sure if you know but Nissan Australia asked Japan to specially build 100 cars to Australian specifications which were sold through their dealers. Pretty rare probably only 60-70 still exist.

My JDM was a project in restoring a good car and making it great. Very original including radio and exhaust.

I'm not actively trying to sell it but if I trip over a genuine buyer then who knows.

Here are a few pics of both cars.

Cheers,

Bob.

What price point are you looking at?

Having 4 toys is a pain in the bum so I may consider selling my JDM.

Bob.

let me know how much, then wait a year or 2 until I can get a loan....

would love an ADM, but dont think ill ever achieve one.

this would be the cleanest jdm I have seen, and would love to keep it that way.

The Bathurst thing is a myth....... BMW and Ford got smashed by the public for racing cars the people couldn't buy here. Nissan wanted to raise the profile of their brand and capitalise on the success they knew they were going to get. The car was $112,995.00 at list price. My window sticker clearly shows that at the time of original purchase. Remember this is 1991/92. Mine was sold as a DEMO with 261 kms for $110,000.00.

I bought the JDM from a private guy in Victoria in February last year. It then underwent a complete cosmetic and mechanical restoration.

If I did sell it $25K would be a fair price which is a fair bit less than it owes me.

Cheers,

Bob.

    • For sure the later RB26 variants had a different setup (6 cam voltage sender?), but the RB25DE/DET share the same ECU pinout/PCB footprint, and at the ECU plug it ends up being 'throttle sensor in' & 'throttle sensor out' (to A/T TCU) ...you stick a multimeter on these pins and you'll find them directly connected (0 ohms) ; I had an pair of Nissan ECUs on the bench long ago, and I noticed this throttle sensor in/out link, actually linked to an op-amp ...which was unpopulated on the NA board, but present on the T board and I went 'ah-ha!' in some moment of clarity... ...it wouldn't surprise me if they changed strategy here though (in the software and actual monitoring of this signal), because they did with other stuff (A/T signals).. and 0.45v as a trigger point makes sense, as that's what the external TCU units expect at idle ; kudos, thanks for that insight...I suppose it boils down to whether or not Consult can display real time data of that signal's voltage... ...in any event, it presents the same target...ie; rotate TPS unit to achieve 0.45v to suit both ECU&TCU, and where do you goto from there? Just disconnect TPSwitch connector and/or that plus TPSensor connector....or do you go for the throat and disconnect IACV solenoid and see if it still stalls? (probably throws a recoverable fault code and goes for default idle strategy?)...
    • I’m also conscious that e85 is slowly being phased out. Not all United’s have them anymore. Can’t take the risk of being low on petrol and assuming the servo will have it. 
    • MR HAMMER has said his piece. Painted up to avoid Rusty Rusty. Actually lines up well. (i.e it lines up the same as the unmolested GTR guard). Turns out the GTR Strut brace does foul on the bonnet vents ever so slightly. May need a little bendy bendy if intended to keep using with a strut brace. So spacing it out to clear the FAST102 is not an option. Annoyingly, the bonnet vents also foul on the heater lines running over the engine. Given this engine does not EVER require a heater, a delete loop is going to be used. Don't worry, the defogger uses the AC. The heater is basically "Do not use the aircon and turn the fan on". It will still be effective, I promise.... once I get the system regassed... Will have to revisit with unvented bonnet I suppose, and suitable strut brace. There's plans to do this and other things tonight and bleed brakes (there was a weep) and put the bumper back on, and take Good Friday morning - Because troubleshooting on the side of the road limping it home at midnight tonight is ... not very smart.
    • Thank you all for you assistance. I contacted Nistune regarding the support for the RB20DE along with my ECU Code (23710-10U00). They do have a map for it and added the RB20DE as a purchasable option now as well. They also added Malta as a Billing and Delivery options as this was missing. I was honestly amazed at their quick response and action, it took less than 24 hours. I also looked again at direct fit options for injectors, just in case I were to replace them. DeatschWerks seem to use a Bosch EV14 base and makes ones that fit mine at 440cc lowest, but also have 550cc at the same price. I tried looking for other direct fit options and managed to find one (also Bosch EV14 based) which includes a plug and play adapter on ebay. Did a small test with a Noid Light on the troubled injectors and all seems good, so they are pulsing properly electrically. One weird part is that they are missing on the same two cylinders as before I got the injectors cleaned. Mechanic also found this weird as he did not label the injectors and it is unlikely to have the faulty injectors be installed in the same cylinders.
