Hey all,

As much as it kills me, deep inside to do this...I'm putting my beloved R32 up for sale.

The car is an '89 Model, Gunmetal Grey and has 145xxx on the clock. Paintwork is good for the age, showing some imperfections here and there but only to the fussy eye! The body is complete with the N1 side skirts and N1 air vents.

Engine was built ~5 years ago by Gavin Wood on the Gold Coast. Basic rundown is;

  • CP Pistons
  • Eagle Rods
  • Tomei cams
  • Springs/Retainers
  • Complete with a HKS turbo kit (2860 -5s, to our understanding...).
  • Full custom tucked 3.5" exhaust and high flow cat made by Fabulous Fabrications (beautiful work) along with custom Hot/Cold cooler pipe.
  • Intercooler (Definitely japanese, though unsure of brand...)
  • I've also just swapped out the Apexi FC with a Haltec Platinum, tuned by NextUp in Brisbane. Car made 385hp ATW on a 18psi. (Have Dyno sheet.)
  • Car was also just serviced by NextUp.

Since purchasing the car, i've completed an array of handling mods. These include:

  • Your choice of BC BR coilovers, or Bilstein/Eibach spring & strut combo (<My preference)
  • Cusco Swaybars
  • Cusco 1.5w rear diff, fully rebuilt and new diff bushing installed with newer (and slightly larger/stronger) R33 half shafts
  • Ikeya Formula front and rear upper control arms.
  • HICAS delete.

I've most likely forgot something...but off the top of my head, that's the impressive stuff.

You've got the option of stock R32 GTR wheels OR Super rare, and ever so sexy Desmond Regamasters in 17x10 +20 all around with brand new 255/40/17 Federal RSRs...these will of course attract a higher price tag.

I've put a lot of money into this recently, and a lot of time getting it right. I'm in the earthmoving industry and am expanding my business, so, i had to make the EXTREMELY difficult decision to sell to fund upgrades. Also selling my Airbagged VW Caddy van, if anyones interested (lol).

Car is located in Brisbane, please come and have a look and drive. It will come with 6 months rego and RWC.

Price is $19,990 ono with stock R32 GTR wheels, or $20,990 with Regamasters.

Please Call or SMS Drew on zero four 27 900 446 if you're interested.

I will arrange further photos tomorrow.

    • It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂
    • Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?
    • Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges. 
    • I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.
    • Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
