Have an R32 GTR which has had fire damage and I am trying to make up my mind what to do with it.

The damage is mainly contained to the interior which has now been gutted including all wiring and it will need a new roof skin. There are no doors, front or rear bumpers etc. and there is slight damage to the LH rear taillight panel and quarter. Despite all of this I believe it is wothwhile saving and put back on the road possibly as a convertible (if you are looking for something different) or it would be a perfect canditate for a race car. This car was registered in NSW but the registration has since lapsed.

I am open to selling it complete with the majority of the running gear or just as a bare shell but don't really feel like parting it out.

If there is enough interest I will give more details and appropriate prices.

Thanks in advance.

So the driveline/motor is still intact/undamaged and was operational (but not anymore due to wiring not being there). I may be interested. Got any pics of damaged areas?

Cheers

Hi Mate,

I Am Very Interested In The Car As A Whole, Let Me Know Of The Price That You Want, Pm Me With More Details Such As Location In Syd And A Contact Number, I Will Take Asap If It Is The Right Price.

Thank You

The driveline was intact when purchased but I bought the car to get another motor for my race car so it has since been removed. The motor from my race car is available but the bottom end is stuffed as a rod went through the block and sump etc. The head has some slight damage but is salvageable and there are no turbo's.

Post a price please as per the rules.

Yeh I knew this was coming. I have asked for expressions of interest to help me figure out how best to advertise it and will try to do something in this regard soon. I will also try to post some pic's and more details as soon as I can but work commitments don't allow me much time on the computer these days.

Make no bones about it, this is a major project if someone wants to get it back on the road but it would handy to use if rebuilding a wreck.

I am in two minds as to sell this thing as I had envisaged keeping it as a spare for my race car but storage is an issue.

i am interested can you like give me an idea on pricing such us under $10 000 or above, pm me with details wen ur ready.

thanx

Price would definately be below 10K because of the work required and I was thinking of something in the order of 5K.

I will offer $5000 as long as it is registerable

I can't see why it couldn't be re-registered and this is around the price I was thinking of. Send me a PM and I will give you my contact number.

I will try to post more details soon but have to log off again.

Regards,

trust me

Rx-7 how can you make that call, I don't even know you or lepperfish for that matter. I have been a member for quite sometime and have never had any misdealings with anyone so whats the story????

ok i will sort out the story, RX-7 i saw his R32 GTR for sale, it was nice and i was ready to buy, but i was $5000 short at the time, then with my job, i havent got all the money yet.

Lepperfish, i was talking to him about his car in the forums, cause it seemed nice, but i never saw it so i dont know y he is making this statement about me.

so the chassis still has proper history and can be reused?

can you PM me the Japanese VIN number on the chassis?

Well thats fair enough, but if you knew you didnt have the money why did you ask me to hold it for you for 2 weeks?

']Well thats fair enough, but if you knew you didnt have the money why did you ask me to hold it for you for 2 weeks?

I THOUGHT, THAT YOU WERE HOLDING IT FOR ME, BUT STILL SHOWING IT TO PEOPLE, AND YOU WERE GOIN TO LET ME KNOW IF THERE WAS ANOTHER BUYER, THATS WHAT I THOUGHT YOU WERE DOING.

Yes the chassis can be reused. I assume by proper history you are asking if it was properly imported and complied? If this is what you are asking I can confirm this was the case.

By Japanese VIN number do you mean the one stamped on the firewall?

I have some photos available but am not sure how to post to this thread so I can email them to any interested parties on request.

I can also confirm that there are no brake calipers or rotors, no intercooler, no lights or bootlid/wing.

    • I'm running a Haltech Platinum Pro with the stock map for the RB20DET + tweaks for my build. When I started it this morning, the IAT was at 32F/0C (Outside temp was ~42F) and the AFRs went off the scale for my AEM gauge. I let it run for ~30 seconds then turned it off. I then did a smoke test, by hooking into a vacuum line directly behind the throttle body, and confirmed there was no leaks ( i let the smoke tester run for ~5 minutes / confirmed it was generating smoke before hand ). I then started the car again, after fixing a power steering leak.... and it seemed to be happy for ~30 seconds (was at ~11/12), but then seemingly shot back up to ~18 again. I then let the car run for a few minutes, thinking this was just cold start related, but the AFRs never came back down. I didn't let the car fully warm up, so maybe this makes sense, but I'm not sure what to do? The AFRs, when I last ran it, were normal, but because of personal reasons I haven't been able to break in the car. It was rebuilt last year.
