Been meaning to make a thread on this for a while. Story goes like this..

 

I have been wanting a R32 GTR for as long as I can remember, was always the dream car to have since my younger days when everyone had gtsts and gt4 skylines. I had been saving furiously for a few years trying to have a crack at the property market so had some money sitting idle, the pine for a gtr started to get stronger and stronger then one day I just went for it. I had not long turned 30 so thought of it as a present to myself. After a bit of a hunt this is what I ended up with.

 

Originally wanted a black one or that dark grey they come out in but after seeing white in the flesh I was sold. Also had to be a 1994 model as I wanted the latest one you can get.

 

1994 Nissan Skyline GTR

82,000ks

Tomei type A cams 264

Adjustable cam gears (no name brand and not dialled in yet)

Aftermarket fuel pump

Mines ECU

Straight through exhaust with 1 rear muffler

Apexi induction kit

Lowering springs on bilstein shocks

Cusco 2way LSD

Stock turbos at stock boost (10-11psi)

N1 side skirts, rear end caps and headlights.

Tomei gear knob my lovely lady got me for Christmas as previous one was the only thing I hated about the car

 

So far have only changed the wheels, still working out which route to go with the turbo chargers. I sold my Evo 5 so freed up some extra coins for this. Here's some pictures

Nice car.

You will need an aftermarket ECU (e.g. Link, Haltech) and watch this:

Hey mate.

Still unsure if I am going to take the plunge and crank heaps more power out of it. For now it looks the part, sounds awesome and is quick enough for the streets. Im not planning on tracking this. I did manage to do a 13.108 at 108mph down the 1/4mile with this setup. Few more pounds of boost pressure and I could have probably cracked a 12.

Looking mighty neat! Loving the choice of wheels.

Cheers mate. They are 18x9.5 -15 BBS RS replica wheels. fit good and didn't even need to roll the guards at this height with 265/35 tires. So they are not the real deal but look good. Still trying to work out what color to change the centre bit to, thinking a dark grey or a dark bronze/gold.

I think you mean +15 . They look awesome, perfect sizes/offset for R32 GT-R.

Yep I love the look of those wheels.

 

Any idea where he got the centre caps? Are those replicas also? Cheers

Haha my bad. Im used to oldschool rwd Toyotas where everything decent is in negative offset.

All genuine I believe. He spent a good 6+ months last year refurbishing all 4 wheels.

Really not much better than a white R32 imo. 

I'm looking forward to seeing updates.
