Vehicle Description 1990 Nissan Skyline $79,995 1990 Nissan Skyline GT-R R32 For SaleRB26 * Precision 6266 Single Turbo * 609+ RWHP Dyno * AEM Infinity * 5-Speed * AWD * Only 346 Miles on BuildThis 1990 Nissan Skyline GT-R R32 combines one of Japan's most legendary performance platforms with a thoughtfully engineered single-turbo build producing serious power while remaining remarkably streetable.Finished in gray and retaining its original right-hand-drive configuration, this R32 was imported into the United States after becoming eligible under the 25-year import rule. The car is reported to have had one owner in Japan prior to import, with its current owner becoming its second long-term caretaker.Japanese paperwork, service records, and import mileage documentation are included. The car is also believed to have spent time at Garage Saurus in Japan, a shop well known for high-performance Japanese builds.The odometer currently shows approximately 115,000 kilometers / 71,457 miles, with mileage documentation from the import included.Most importantly, there are only approximately 346 miles on the current performance build.RB26 Single-Turbo PerformanceAt the heart of the GT-R is Nissan's legendary RB26DETT 2.6-liter inline-six, which has been converted from the factory twin-turbo arrangement to a Precision 6266 single-turbo setup.The conversion incorporates extensive custom fabrication and supporting modifications designed to properly complement the increased airflow and power.Performance upgrades include:RB26DETT 2.6L Inline-SixPrecision 6266 Single TurboCustom Turbo Exhaust ManifoldExtensive Custom FabricationCustom Single-Throttle-Body Intake ConversionLarger IntercoolerUpgraded RadiatorAEM Infinity Engine ManagementAEM Digital Monitoring DisplayCustom Exhaust SystemSuper Dragger Exhaust ComponentsThe car was previously tested on a Dynojet at approximately 609.25 RWHP before being turned down to a more conservative street tune.Current output is estimated at approximately 500 RWHP, running approximately 11 to 13 pounds of boost, providing an excellent balance between serious performance and street drivability.346 Miles on the BuildOnly approximately 346 miles have been accumulated on the current build, making this an especially interesting opportunity for someone looking for a sorted R32 with extensive performance work already completed.Rather than simply chasing a maximum horsepower number, the current configuration has been deliberately turned down from its previous 609+ rear-wheel-horsepower dyno result for more conservative street use.5-Speed Manual & AWDPower is sent through the GT-R's 5-speed manual transmission, with a Clutch Masters twin- disc clutch installed to handle the increased output.The legendary R32 GT-R all-wheel-drive system remains in place.A red toggle switch located beneath the driver's side of the dashboard electronically disables drive to the front wheels, allowing the system to operate without front-wheel power when desired.The factory HICAS rear-wheel-steering system has also been deleted, simplifying the rear suspension and providing more predictable handling characteristics.Drivetrain highlights include:5-Speed Manual TransmissionClutch Masters Twin-Disc ClutchGT-R All-Wheel-Drive SystemDriver-Controlled Front-Drive Disable SwitchHICAS DeleteHKS Suspension & Upgraded BrakesThe suspension has been upgraded with HKS coilovers, giving the car a more controlled and performance-oriented stance.The braking system has also been refreshed with:New Brake RotorsNew Brake PadsBlacked-Out Brake CalipersHKS CoiloversTogether, these upgrades complement the additional horsepower without taking away from the fundamentally balanced nature of the R32 chassis.ExteriorFinished in gray, the exterior reportedly received a paint refresh while the car was still in Japan and continues to present very well.Perhaps more importantly for an R32, the body is described as exceptionally clean and free from the significant rust commonly encountered on these cars.Exterior upgrades and features include:NISMO Front BumperCustom Rear Spoiler

Yokohama TiresThe wheels currently feature a removable finish over their original bronze color, allowing the next owner to return them to the bronze appearance if desired.Classic R32 InteriorInside,

without being overwhelmed by unnecessary modifications.Japanese History & DocumentationThe car comes with Japanese paperwork and service documentation, along with mileage records associated with its importation into the United States.The R32 is reported to have had just one owner while in Japan, and it is believed to have spent time at Garage Saurus before eventually being imported into the
