Another rare 323 GT-R Rally homologation model built by Mazda to take on Lancia's Delta

Integrales in the early 1990's.... The 323 GT-R had some good success, especially in Japan and

Australia, but also in Europe.

We search for these each and every week throughout Japan and usually pick up every example

that's in top condition, leaving those which are tired or in poor condition. With just under 500 of

these ever made by Mazda purely for Rally Homologation purposes, it's taken us over 5 months to

find this example to our exacting standards of condition. As these are very rare cars, they're a carthat rarely appears for sale in Japan - and when they do, they're often in poor condition, abused or

ex-amateur rally cars, or track cars with no interiors, etc. This example is the very best we've ever

come across. A collector's car, for the knowledgeable enthusiast who wants something different,

affordable and depreciation proof. Also, being so rare, this car can be registered as a Mazda 323

Turbo, which costs less to insure than the equivalent (And less capable GTI-R Pulsars!).

The 323 GT-R is equipped with Viscous LSD, producing 210BHP as standard. In a car this nimble

and light it makes for a very capable car given its strong power and limited-slip 4WD system. Drive

Bias is 47% to the front and 53% to the rear - which gives this car a better handling bias than

Pulsar GTI-R's. The drive train is known to be stronger than for Pulsar's on these as are the

engines, also being built to withstand competition use.

This 323 GT-R is well equipped with: Factory bodykit including large front bumper ready for fitment

of FMIC, vented bonnet, side skirts, high level rear spoiler wiht integrated brake light and rear

bumper extension. Power steering, Electric windows (Auto operation on Drivers side), Electric

mirrors with retract mode, Electically operated glass sunroof, Half Leather - Half perforated Suede

(Excellent orginal condition - Note it looks and feels like the same material as used for GT-R

seats), Climate control Air Conditioning, Factory fitted Nardi steering wheel, Original front strutbrace, integrated driving lamps, full original fitted mats, factory tinted windows, optional wind

deflectors rear wiper.

Performance & Cosmetic modifications: Uprated lowered suspension with uprated lowering

springs, BBS 15" alloy wheels with high grip Bridgestone Potenza RE-01R sports tyres of size

195/50-R15 (Nearly new). Also included are a Boost gauge and idle slabiliser. Note the smoked

front corner markers (Standard is orange). A Carrozzeria MOS FET 50W x 4 CD Radio unit is

fitted - included free of charge also with this car.Further tuning in the form of a boost controller to

give 1 bar of boost would be recommended. We can also source a front mount intercooler, uprated

exhaust system and many other hard to find modifications for 323 GT-R's through

www.neweraparts.com

Auction grade is 4 (Original Auction Sheet is available). The exterior is in good condition. All

panels are very straight and show no signs of previous repair. The faults we found were as

follows: Minor bird dropping etch marks on the roof and front offside wing. These are too minor to

repair.On the front n/s arch section of the front bumper there's a small graze. Also some minor

scratches on the rear bumper. Each of the side skirts (Original) have some scratches too. On the

rear section of each quarter panel there is a pin dent. Each of these faults is clearly shown on the

car's pictures. If this car is supplied fully prepared, the scratches and pin dents on each side of the

car are to be repaired. Roof and front fender are so minor, they don't require repainting. Faults are

to be repaired professionally, to supply this car in showroom condition throughout. Note also that

the original stickers have aged. We may be able to get original replacements inexpensively if still

available from Mazda. Alternatively they could all be removed to give this car a stealth look..

Interior is in excellent original condition. Note this has been a non smoker's car since new. There's

a crease in the leather on the driver's seat. Also the gear shift knob is worn and could use

replacing. Various knobs are available through www.neweraparts.com including titanium items,etc.

We have test driven this car thoroughly and are pleased to say it not only handles extremely well

with minimal body roll, but drives just as it should. There are no worn synchros, no noisy wheel

bearings, nothing at all to report! Tyres are nearly new also. From experience, we can tell - this

car's never been used hard. It feels very tight indeed, without even a rattle from the interior. We

also noted that the rear suspension is adjustable for toe settings, so oversteer or understeer can

be dialed in as preferred.

This only the 5th Familia (323) GTR we have ever stocked. In Japan these cars are usually very

tired and untidy. When we saw this example we just had to have it! It will be one of just a handfulof 323 GT-R's in the UK shortly (See www.323gtx.co.uk for info on the 323 Driver's club!).

Due to this car being over ten years old it will not require an SVA test upon arrival to the UK.

Therefore we suggest that to make this car as affordable as possible, we provide the car

unprepared. This means that all the owner would need to do is to MOT then register the vehicle,

plus carry out the paintwork as described, if preferred.

Fancy a hot hatch rally homologation car that commands low annual road tax, give good fuel

consumption and very strong performance with reliability? A car that nobody else will have - which

leaves people wondering what the hell it is, when it leaves them for dead?

This beautiful, rare 323 GTR is available for just 5,995 inclusive of UK conversions, minor

paintwork, valetting, MOT, 6 month's road tax, 12 month's comprehensive warranty and full UK

registration OR for just 5,195 inclusive of comprehensive 12 month warranty and full guidance &

support on DIY UK preparation.

Now arrived and available for viewing (By appointment). A deposit of 1,000 secures. Please

contact us for details on how to reserve this stunning pocket rocket!

(1). Starting with your inquiry, we provide a quote or e-mail communication, so that

we are clear on just what you are after. We ask for detailed information from you, so

we can provide an accurate quotation from the beginning. If you are inquiring about acar from stock, steps (2) and (4) are not required.

(2). When sourcing to order, our quotation is based on your requirements. As long as

your budget is sufficient for the car youre after & the car is likely to be available, we

will be prepared to find the car you order, or better. Remember: even if you budget

too much, it doesnt matter. We operate a system of supplying the best car we can

find, plus a set fee of 900. If we can buy your car for a low price, then you make the

corresponding saving.

(3). When you are ready to proceed, we ask for a deposit (& completed order form, if

applicable). The deposit is usually 1,000. If you want a car worth over 10K OTR,

then the deposit is 1,500. The deposit is fully refundable without question, should

you for any reason need to cancel before a car is bought on your behalf. If you are

reserving a car from stock the deposit is refundable less costs and time incurred

provided you cancel 4 working days before shipment from Japan.

(4). Miguel, our buyer keeps you informed via e-mail periodically whilst searching

for your car. Sometimes it can take weeks, even months to find the right car. In

addition to Miguel attending the major Tokyo auctions daily, we have buyers

searching daily throughout Japan for the car you want. No news simply means we

havent found it yet. We dont buy the first car which comes along. It must meet or

exceed your requirements whilst not costing more than the OTR price we agreed,

though it frequently costs less.

(5). As soon as available, we will e-mail you up to 30 detailed photographs, showingall aspects of your car. We also include a detailed description. Of course, total OTR

price is known at this stage, so we let you know. Cars are insured from the time

theyre bought, to the time they are completed & collected by you in UK.

(6). Usually, boats are available every 2-3 weeks, from Japan to UK (Southampton).

How the Newera System Works


38/38

www neweraimports com

We arrange for your car to be shipped on the first vessel available. Around the time

the car is shipped, we ask for the second instalment. Typically this is approximately

60% of the cars OTR total cost. Note that the car we supply to you is fully insured at

all times prior to you collecting it.

(7) We arrange booking of the SVA test in advance - shortly after the car departs, so

that the car can be tested as soon as possible upon arrival to UK. We also inform our

UK agent of your full contact details and information on everything which needs doing,

to make sure the car wil be presented in beautiful condition.

(8). Shipping takes 5 weeks. Around 2 weeks before arrival, we ask you for the final

instalment, to cover Import duties, VAT, shipping, UK conversions, testing,

registraton etc.

(9). Before the car arrives, we arrange customs clearance, etc. so the car neednt

spend un-necessary time waiting at the docks upon arrival. It usually takes 3-4 days

for cars to be unloaded and cleared by UK customs.

(10). The car is sent from Southampton to our UK agents premises in Canterbury

aboard a car transporter. Upon arrival there, it is SVA converted, derestricted, SVA

tested & MOTd (If applicable).

All minor cosmetic work required (e.g. bumper scratches) is carried out. The car is

fully valetted just before you collect it.

(11). The car comes with 6 months road tax and is fully registered in your name as

the first UK keeper. If you have a suitable private number plate youd like to go on the

car, we can also arrange this, provided you have a DVLA retention certificate.
