Hey all, I'm not sure if this is the best place to post this. I've been a lurker of this forum and a fan of GTR's for a few years now. I've just recently become financially able to afford one. I am not very good with cars in general but I have massed little knowledge over time. I'm based in NSW and there's one in Victoria that I'm potentially up for buying. The seller has uploaded many photos and provided details. I was wondering if I uploaded these photos and details to this post, that you guys could chime in with any thoughts before I make the trek to Victoria. I have read the thread " New To The Skyline Scene?" But I just want to see what you esteemed members think about this import.

Thanks all. VIN number is BNR32-012590.

Also I'd like to use https://japancarhistorycheck.com/ to check the auction history - but what is the best way to verify that the VIN provided by the seller actually matches the car he is selling? I'm aware vin stickers can be forged. Would using that website to check the japanese history help verify the car that's for sale will match the VIN that's provided?

if i was looking for another r32 i would look no further than this one. chances are thats an extremely good condition car. thats alot of coin it should be damn near mint for that price with a perfect frame. i would say if you could get the frame(standard 4 spots on frame where dints usually occur from improper jacking), rust behind all the wheel arcs, open the gas cap see what rust is occuring in there, and a nice photo of the trunk popped with pictures of the perimeter along the waether stripping and under the spare tire where water can accumulate and cause premature rust. cheers chap car does look extremely clean in my eyes. i paid 27k for mine in the same shape as that grey one(maybe better mine had zero rust) in 2019 so not that long ago. i just kept watching as economy was low here, so i dunno about the 85k mate thats steap for a r32 that will be quite slow after you drive it a couple times and want more power.

I’m in Melbourne. There are a few guys that are in the know. JMA Airport West are GTR specialists. To pay him $200 to have a look at it which will take him 10 mins might be worth it.

1200buck hourly rate sounds about right for a gtr

    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new  
    • Nissan needs to forget about building SUVs in every size possible and bring back the damn Silvia/200sx duo to compete with the 86/brz. Maybe with the Honda type r motor pointing the right way
    • Good to see you followed your heart, got your dream car and have it pretty well sorted out now. I think anyone can get caught out with a seller not being 100% honest about a cars problems. Can relate to all the electrical issues, had similar issues with my first car (mk2 escort) ages ago
    • I just bought the Nexus S3 for my gtt, haven’t installed it yet as I’m collecting parts to do everything at once…so far spent $14,000 The Nexus is nearly future proof
