R32 GTR

[Griff500]

1993 K plate Nissan Skyline GTR




61000miles

Imported June 2007, owned by me since August 2007

R33 GTR re-con engine (complete with turbos) fitted by reputable Skyline specialist September 2007 at a cost of £3400 (receipt for work will available). The R33 engine is far stronger in the area of the oil pump drive, therefore removing a weak point in the R32 engine. The new engine drives fantastically and has really good oil pressure.





The car is mechanically great and the whole car is clean, but there are areas where it isn't cosmetically perfect:
The paintwork shows its age in some areas and the interior has signs of wear in places.
The wheels have kerbing marks from the previous owner
The plastic (removable) spat behind the NSR wheel has paint flaking
The rear bumper has an impact mark of some sort (in picture)
The drivers door handle has some scratching on it
The boot spoiler looks like someone has polished through the paint (also easy to remove for repaint).
The water temperature gauge in the car has recently stopped working






These bits of cosmetic that need tidying are all things I was going to do in the coming months but I never get to drive the car, I use it as a 4th car and 4 cars is now becoming impractical!



Other details:

A new clutch was fitted at the same time as the new engine.

V-Power fuel always used

Always ran at standard boost on the new engine.

Unknown large bore exhaust system (Japanese manufacturer)

Apexi radiator

Apexi intercooler

Twin Blitz dump valves

HKS air filters with new elements recently

HKS remote oil filter location (a really great piece of kit that makes oil filter changes a doddle!)

Engine oil cooler

Tein Flex master suspension

New standard brake discs and pads

Momo Tuner steering wheel

Greddy boost gauge on A-pillar

Greddy gear knob

Not tracked since reaching the UK

Stereo headunit is not included in the sale

MOT renewed this week, Taxed until end of August

When I first got the car I cleaned the underside over a 2 days period (horrible job to clean the underside properly, not something I want to repeat soon!) and wax oil it thoroughly



Picture with old brakes


The car is a great stage one upgrade; it rides very well on the Tein kit and handles fantastically.








I live near Birmingham airport. I'll try and answer any PM's ASAP

Just wondering how come the R32 engine has been replaced with the R33? Considering the car only has 60k on the clock, sounds like there may have been something wrong with it, e.g. been thrashed a lot? so will this have affected other stuff, transmission etc?

The car doesn't feel thrashed at all, the drivetrain and chassis feel VERY good, as does the engine now it's replaced.

I think you'll find many Skyline engines have been opened up at some point in their life to either modify or replace worn parts. R32's are around 15years old now and these cars are highly tuneable, as said; most will have been worked on at some point.

An intelligent buyer will make his/her judgement on the testdrive evaluation/inspection (amongst other things), not the contents of the advert.
