Since then and a few australian carparks later its got 1 more pin dent, a paint scrape (that should polish out with a cut and polish) and a small dent in the drivers side door. I think I paid a pretty high price for a 94 dead stock car, but the condition is excellent.

Depends on the auction.

I looked at a supposed Grade 3.5 car for someone today and it had both 1/4's repainted and had a new beaver and repair to boot floor.

Jaa auctions are slack with there grading but USS are pretty good.

Engine was getting hot so AJ parked it. I would too knowing the cost of that motor.

430 odd at 6500, main problem is it was breaking down above 6500, seems to be either stuffed cam angle sensors(we took a spare, well swapped the one in the car on sat night hoping it would resolve the issue, but didn't, we never had time to test), or theres an issue with the motec not feeding it enough voltage, so the top end speed was reduced, as was using each gear to its peak potential..

we didn't make it there saturday as the car only first fired at 6:30 on saturday morning, and a couple of issues brough tuning to a halt early on saturday morning, wit the issues fixed aj tuned it sat night, well, tuned it to 6500 as it had the ignition issue above that, a few of us did a pile more work to it sat night to get it completely ready for sunday..

race one, the pivot starter switch jammed on, so after half a lap, rather than trash the os geiken flywheel and starter motor he pulled off and had it pulled back to the pits, replaced pivot switch with a normal push button switch found at the local dickies, fixed that problem, second race it had heat issues and rather than risk anything he pulled out, no need to push it, we wouldn't have won anything, and lost everything..

on its first ever lap it cut a 67 second lap, which is about 3 seconds off the front runners, not bad for a brand new car the owner hadn't driven more than 200 meters..

we'll be back at the next race with the issues addressed, and will hopefully be able to show the full potential of the car, it managed a 66 in race pace with traffic and was quickly catching the rx7 of kim ledger so we're happy, and the car looks and sounds awesome..

      R32 GTR - Where to begin

      By Duncan 路 Posted

      Just chuck in an ECU, Injectors and a pair of direct fit low mount turbos, that should use to the top of your budget and give it a nice kick along. Also, don't do anything unless you don't need the car daily....if it does blow and you get another 10k bill just to get back to where it is now would you be able to come up with the cash or will it sit for 2 years like most GTRs....

      Thank you 馃檹 I'm patient, which is good, considering the limited budget (for now) more so trying to understand where to begin the journey and you and the others have been good with that, appreciate everyone for their input 馃

      R32 GTR - Where to begin

      By The Bogan 路 Posted

      $5-10k isn't much for reliability if your looking at more power for a RB Me, with that much money currently on hand,  I would only look at things to suit future mods, as stated, a fuel pump and ecu would be my first point of call, as well as getting the injectors cleaned and tested, maybe even replace all the coolant hoses After a little time with the tuner, they should be able to tell you how your car is running in relation to things like your ignition, cooling, and other stuff that will be picked up when it has had a few runs up on the dyno and some logs to look at Basically, get everything sorted for reliability before you start leaning on a 30 year old engine Good luck with the one and only true Godzilla, enjoy Note: for your birthday presents, ask your family and friends for lottery tickets, a 32 GTR can cost "all of the money" to make reliable power
