Talk me out of buying a R32 GTR

You're not helping :D

 

No seriously that's a great looking car. Did you have the engine work carried out?

 

I think I'm going to at least take a look/test drive the GTR in question I think :)

 

The car was imported as a JUN built 800bhp 2.7 stroker T88 single turbo car, I wanted more low end response so took it to TDI in Essex, they added the To4Z kit with the F Con V Pro, 1000cc injectors, huge amount of head work including 272 cams etc, however I still had stock J Spec Brakes hence "Tooquicktostop"

Well I can't really argue with that can I :D

 

For anybody interested, this is the car in question.

It looks tidy, but the colour does it no favours IMO.

 

AS I said before, white is by far the best on these, though black is also nice.

This should help.

 

R32 are nice but the R33 are nicer imo. But then the R34 (V-Spec) is EVEN nicer! Failing that, go buy the Nissan GTR which tops the bill, added to the fact that production for GTR's will come to a halt this time next year so you place an order and buy a new one!

 

Btw if I had the money, I'd be the first to place two GTR's on order for next year (one for future investment & one for myself) :D

If you posted this before selling the Supra and asked 'should I sell the Supra for this' then I'd have said HELL NO!

 

However the Supra's gone now so that's irrelevant. So yeah, I'd give it a go. You won't own it long enough to break it anyway :p

 

I do love R32 GTR's, they're the only GTR I love :D

I say, take a chance :)

I never thought i'd love another GTR after the R35 and R34 but the R32 GTR I've got now is totally bonkers and just so involving as a drivers cars! Since selling my Supra I've just had fun bouncing around a few different cars that I've always wanted to own!

Its just having a new set of boots and remap ready for some track action :D :eyebrows: :cool:

Anyway cheeky pictures of mine:

Deposit has been paid this morning and as far as I'm aware the car is due to land in this country later this week. It will then be prepared and registered over the next fortnight ready for collection at some point next month. I can't wait :)
