nsw/act [sold] R32 "RB29" GTR

[GTR_JOEY]

Hola,

The time has come to sell my beloved R32 GTR. Ive had this car for over 7 years and ive spent a lot of time and money fixing it up to a standard where im happy with it. Unfortunately priorities in life change and I need the money to purchase an investment property.

This GTR is an 89 model and is a real head turner. Every time I take this car out for a drive it receives compliments and plenty of ‘thumbs up’ lol. I wouldn’t say that the car is immaculate like many other sellers claim, but it’s a fine example of a GTR. The following list of mods include a lot of parts to make the car track suitable, though since the engine and box rebuild the car hasn’t seen the track or drag strip once.

As is, the engine is an absolute monster. It is currently running on a run in tune as the engine is fresh. It has now finished its run in period and is ready for a full tune. The engine is top notch and made 370rwkw on its first pull of on only 17psi. It was then backed off and is making around 360rwkw on gate pressure and pump fuel.  With a full flex tune, timing and more boost it will push a responsive 450rwkw. The Noise of this thing has to be heard to be believed.

Below is a link of the original 2.6 build. Going through more of the pages you will see some of the new parts and modifications as well as the run in tune result of the new set up.  The car has barely been driven over the last since the rebuild as ive been overseas for work since the start of the year.

Mod list

Engine

Built by Chris at ABE’s Engines.  For anyone who is familiar with Chris, they would know that he is an extremely sort after builder and he doesn’t just take any job. He was kind enough to build this engine for me over the period of several months whilst at the same time building WTAC engines that included the Tilton EVO (overall winner) and Sutton Bros S15. The engine is smooth and makes excellent power and response. Its running 9.3 compression, all balanced, includes light head work in regards to porting and has the following components included.

2.9 full counter weight single piece billet crank  79.4mm stroke (only a handful of these  cranks exist)

Nitto forged  I Beam rods

Custom forged  CP/Nitto Pistons 87mm

Custom ATI 1000hp balancer with trigger wheel to suit crank trigger (more in electronics), This balancer was custom made by ATI as I believe they have the best balancers on the market.  The custom hub on the balancer was made to enable a trigger disc to be fitted to the rear and now runs with the Ross trigger kit.

Racepace extended  baffled sump

Ferrea dual valve springs, retainers, seats and locks

Unigroup custom cams (perfect for response and top end) 260 duration with 10.8mm lift.

Transmission

Standard rebuilt gear box, has new bearings and syncros. Currently runs on Redline oil and also has the transfer case mod that places pre load on the 4WD actuator to reduce response times for 4WD engagement. This gear box is very smooth and has been well looked after.

Brake kit has had next to no work and callipers have been painted red. Callipers look simply amazing behind the LMGT4’s and perform very well.

ALPHA OMEGA Rear brake kit w/ 350mm rear rotor and Evo 10 callipers

Rotors are new DBA items

Braided brake lines

BM57 (R33) brake master cylinder and booster

Suspension

Suspension mods once again had track duties in mind though I wanted to keep it nice enough to drive on the street. As a result I purchased a set of Tein RA coil overs and had them sent straight to RACE PACE to have them modified with new valving and springs. They are quite nice to drive on the street and would be great for the track . All rear diff and sub frame bushes have been changed. Mods also include:

Tein RA coil overs (modified by RACE PACE)

Water return from the back of the head to prevent over heating of cylinder 6

Price: $39,000

Depending on interest that price may be negotiable. I will be willing to help pay for a full E flex tune if I receive a good offer. There’s probably more parts which I forgot to mention and I will add them as I remember.  I currently have people interested in the engine so if I had a reasonable offer for the car without the engine that would also be an option.

At the end of the day anyone could purchase this car and sell it in parts for more than purchased for. Im not in a super mad rush to sell. Car is coming up for rego in September so it will come with 6 months rego as of then. Is currently rego’d in QLD and does NOT come with plates as they were a gift from my partner. Will Negotiate Roadworthy with buyer on point of sale.

This is a very good car for the asking price. I would expect this to sell for asking or very close to it.

 

Good luck with sale.

Thanks mate, it will be very sad to see it go, the mrs was very upset when I broke the news.

There is a lot of blood sweat, tears and $ in this car and will most likely be  sold by the end of the week based on the interest already
