R32 GTR
Due to a morgage i need to sell my beloved Skyline.
I am the first owner of the car in the uk. I bought it in June 2002. A piston broke a ring land shortly after purchase which required a rebuild. I took the decision to rebuild the complete engine. The mileage at this time was 96000 kilometers. The car now has 130k on the clock so the engine has done 21250 miles in 3 years! The rebuild included a rebore and full set of pistons. The only upgraded part at the time was a Nismo oil pump (£500) The engine was rebuilt by a local Nissan dealer who spent the winter of 02 rebuilding it and i visited the garage on a weekly basis to check on progress. Phone number of garage and photo evidence of the standard of rebuild on request. The turbos were treated to steel internals and thrust bearings. Since that time i have progressively modified the performance of the car as and when i could affoerd it. These include; Large ARC intercooler Water spray fitted HKS hard pipe kit Tomeo Fuel regulator Apexi power FC including comander Apexi Boost controller. Max boost is 1.2 bar. Engine would need a thicker head gasket to run more boost. HKS airfilters Iridium Plugs Decat pipe HKS exhaust OS Geiken twin plate clutch Brembo R33 GTR brakes all round with Feredo 2500 fronts pads and standard rears Tein coilovers (I believe these are HA's) Front strut brace. Air-con has been removed Clear indicators If i think of any more i'll edit the post. Other parts have been replace such as the rear window moulding, all the air vents are in good condition (no cracks). R32's are known for cracked vents. Front corner of the bonnet has been resprayed to remove small scratches. Clutch servo has been replaced, the transfer box was repalaced, centre bearing on the prop is new. Silkolene Race oil has been used to keep her heart pumping, changed every 6000 k usually sooner Baulk rings have been replaced on 2nd 3rd and 4th so none of that Skyline crunch. The only bad points i can think of is a tiny dint on the nearside front wing, due to its position dent matsers were unable to reomove it. There is a small (and i mean small) cigarette burn on the passenger seat, the boot catch lever does not work. I think thats it. Its sat on AVS 5 spoke 17icn wheels shod with Falken 471's, good as new. I have used the car at two TOTB events, 2 and 4. Once at Trax for two track time sessions. A few RWYB's at Elvington. The car will do the 1/4 mile in 11.82 (ticket to prove it).  I don't know the bhp figure but i think an 11.82 speaks for its self. The rest of the milage is mainly travelling to shows. Car has always been garaged and not used for last two winters. I can count on one hand the number of times its been out this year due to other commitments. It has a tracker and a cat one alarm. The car has no tax but will come with MOT which runs til 1st June 07 I have loads of reciepts including the original purchase reciept. As you might be able to tell this car has been my pride and joy since the first day i bought it so will be heart broken to see it go.  Before hard pipe kit was fitted  Looking for 10k ovno No test pilots, dreamers, and unless you bring a large amount of cash, lets say £1000 in my hand first (if your serious you'll have no problem sorting that out), NO TEST DRIVE. I will take you out in it and thats it. Will consider p/x with AE86 PM me |
