josh

Josh that would be great ! Will send you a pm ?

The car looks great.

Nice and original with original Japanese books.

Original 3 keys, nice tidy engine bay, original wheels and suspension height.

Original rear speakers and no ADR side blinkers. 

I think the N1 kit is tacky, leave the front bar but remove the front and rear spoilers as they seem badly warped anyway.

I'd replace the front spoiler with an OEM non painted one, and source a factory battery box. Other than that, visually you appear to have a spot on car.

Just check to see if it has the dreaded dash bubble, $1000 now for a straight bubble free dash in used condition and about $500 or a days labour to fit and swap them around.

Good luck with it, you could buy a whole lot worse!

Cheers,

Bob.

Ah good job!!!
Yeah the fact it was a Vspec for a decent price is what drew me but to be honest it's my second 32 GTR (first reading much lower kms) and this one drives and feels very tight and fresh. All the signs of high km wear aren't there, especially while driving. Couldn't be happier as of yet. The guys at TP gave me paperwork showing that it was fitted with a dash in Japan reading higher mileage but its mileage before that swap was not documented

No....... I'm in Sydney.

I document the ads and noticed it sold on December 23........

Slightly higher kms but V-Spec and V-Spec II are commanding a premium.

Are you happy with it?

Bob.

Speaking of high prices...  Genuine Nismo spec is bananas.

Wonder if it's legit as per ad.

I'm pretty sure the car is legit but it certainly doesn't present in a condition that suggests the low kms.

The ad has been changed because previously he mentioned something about the speedometer being changed but the odometer mileage is genuine etc.

It has a 260kph NISMO speedo which is not standard. The 180kph's were fitted to these cars.

The blued out seats and dash bubble concern me.

That said, if it is genuine unquestionable mileage these issues can be sorted for a couple of thousand dollars.

If it were local I'd be interested but got burnt with airfare costs on the 16,000 kms car for sale about 16 months ago. I was told it was 100% factory original yet told the then seller that I have a paint thickness gauge and anything over about 100 microns will confirm it's been painted and I won't be interested. He swore black and blue it never had paint etc..... ALL panels except roof and bonnet were painted! 350-600 microns EVERYWHERE! Was a shit job!

Long story, don't get me started!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:3_grin::3_grin::3_grin:

I thought the Nismo ones did get the 260 km/h speedo? Going off memory of pictures of a showroom Nismo model.

No....... All dealer or aftermarket options.

Hard to see but if you look closely the kph numbers stop in the normal position as the 180kph.

    • Well, back in the day..... "race" fluids, which were essentially only really "high temp" fluids, used to absorb water more readily. So they really needed to be changed more often anyway. The coincidence of that being directly necessary along with it being what racers would do as a matter of course was just fine.
    • Does the high temp fluid degrade any different over time compared to normal one? That's one thing I've always been wondering. Because a track car is going to get the fluid flushed probably way more often than every two years and will see less kilometers driven. I would think the requirements are different. I'm running Motul RBF 600 in mine. Was recommended by my mechanic before a trackday and I've stuck with it since. Hasn't seen the track since but I've kept buying and using it for servicing anyway.
    • The brakes are all stock bar some DBA slotted discs and the EBC pads and braided lines. The car has brake ducts as standard but they're kinda pointed in the general direction of the brakes rather than really getting at the heat source. I guess I should hit it with an infra red thermometer after a session and see what they're at.  100%! Its just a curiosity more than anything. As I said, high temp brake fluid was such a track day rage back in the day. From people I speak to at the track and threads on here everybody has their own take on it but I'm not gonna scoff at spending a few more bucks.    OH, a quick side question - would you use brake fluid from an opened container even if the lid has been on? Eg, if you have a bottle that you opened last time you flushed, it's been tightly closed, is it still good? 
    • Nice, is there a post with the new 4" dyno curve?
