Anyone Know What Dealer This Is - Finding These Mint 32's In Vic?

Keeping tabs on 32 GTST's on Carsales and there's this one dealer who seems to import bone stock one owner R32 GTS T's from Japan with low KM's...

They are asking a pretty penny for 'em but for they are the exact thing I'm after, just the extra stretch means I don't have all the cash right now, just wondering if anyone knows who the dealer is, so I can hit them up when the time comes - I don't want to make an enquiry via Carsales because that costs them a fortune... (am a dealer myself)

The latest one they have even has a stock airbox - I actually don't think I even knew what the stock airbox looked like on an R32 until now...

Did anyone on here buy the last black one they had? Had a few minor mods but still looked remarkably original and mint.... Some people would baulk at paying over $13k for a R32 GTS T, but if you're old like me and more want the car as a 'Classic', then it actually makes more sense to pay more up front for something like this, rather than trying to convert a modified machine back closer to original condition...

Plus they are providing a full history, RWC and a 12 month warranty - on a twenty year old car - that's pretty impressive.

Here's the link to carsales if anyone is interested in checking out a GTS T 'as Nissan intended it to be...' :-)

That would be Power Road Car Sales @ Dandenong.

Be careful how excited you get about the "low kms" factor.

They're clever enough to post only engine numbers with their advertisements which makes them very hard to catch out. Here is one example though:

2007 White Delica - 76,602 kms. Note engine number in VIN field = BD83764B12

According the Department of Transport the chassis number for that car would be: CV5W0106567

Same car in Japan:

Faaaar out that is very interesting! Thanks heaps for the info. It wouldn't surprise me if the car they're advertising has done more km's as the stock steering wheel is decidedly tatty - a dead giveaway on R32's I reckon. Thus far all the sub 100km examples I've seen have had a steering wheel that looked pretty mint. A 12 month warranty and completely stock state of tune does have it's appeal though - although the warranty may not cover 'wear and tear' and pretty much everything else, and the car could have been returned to stock from being previously modified... I think I might stick with the 8-9k examples I've been looking at - then leave a bit of budget for fixing it up...

Thanks again mate, great info.

    • It's in the bloody domain name twice! Yes...the GTR boxen have, for some reason, been cheaper than the RWD boxen for a long time. 10 years ago the GTST box was available here for <AU$3k. 5 years ago the GTT box was available for ~AU$3300. Both retail through 3rd party. Now the GTT box is >4k locally and only available for less if you're willing to jump through some hoops. Apparently they can be ordered from Nissan dealers for $3-3.5k at trade pricing. A friend of mine has a new GTT box sitting on his showroom floor that I keep wanting to hit him up for but I'd somewhat rather he sold it to someone else at his asking price than to me for a mate's rates discount.

    • I like the 'Beatles album cover, but with bird' element of this photo as well, haha
    • Hi Gents, Someone I know (experienced engine builder) built an engine. It had some chinesium rods that came with ARP 2000 bolts. One failed on the dyno, destroyed the whole thing. The only possibilities are: Installation error. Possible, but we should discount it almost 100% because he knows what he's doing. He doesn't discount it that much, because he's being hard on himself. QC/QA problems with ARP products. I'd like to discount this, but I have heard a number of stories about similar failures, and stories of some builders buying 2 sets of everything, x-raying everything, and picking only those bolts that they are completely happy with. This behaviour coming from anecdotal stories of ~1% failure rates. 1% of all rod bolts failing would be about 1000x higher than I would expect to be anywhere near tolerable. If I were ARP I certainly wouldn't even be selling the product if they were dying at that rate (for non-installation error reasons). So, I would prefer to discount that possibility too. Fakes. Specifically, fakes being sold bundled with cheap rods sets from CCP factory B in Shenzen, or wherever the stuff is being made this week. So the question here is, does anyone else have some horror stories that would point to fakes being circulated in this manner?
    • I forget this is an au website, my GTR FS5R30A was 2200 AUD delivered but I did have to go to a warehouse near the port to pick it up myself.
