  1. I mean, yeah, that too! I'm about to embark upon a major upgrade for my GTR which will include a Haltech standalone, so it will have that going for it as well. But I think I very well may add this buzzer as a way to let me know what's going on! This buzzer would be a very good option for someone who is not ready (or not able) to plunk down the money for good engine management!
  2. Time to resurrect this thread! I was asking myself this very question. My beef with aftermarket gauges is primarily how they look. Where possible, I've done my best to keep my Skyline looking stock. That being said, I do wish the gauges (especially the oil pressure gauge) were a little bit more trustworthy. I've added a new sender of course, but there is always that nagging doubt in my mind. So, I thought of an interesting solution! Why not add an audible alarm that buzzes super loud if you loose oil pressure? Here is a product I found that might fit the bill. Apparently, this is a common thing in marine applications. Not sure if it would be that great for a track car with an open exhaust and a brain bucket on the drivers head, but then again, if my car was a track car, I wouldn't be worrying about how the gauges look. Here's a link to the buzzer kit: https://www.myinboardmarine.com/products/alarm-for-engine-with-audible-warning-kit?variant=31226510901353&currency=USD&utm_medium=product_sync&utm_source=google&utm_content=sag_organic&utm_campaign=sag_organic
  3. My thought as well. I set the front toe to 0 degrees... but that was with the string method... which isn't optimal.
  4. I'm having a similar issue with my BNR32. Put it up on the rack to do an oil change, and the front tires were completely corded on the inside! After only 8,000 km! The car is pretty low, but do R32's gain THAT much negative camber when lowered? Tire size is 245/45R17. Are adjustable upper control arms the answer?
  5. Thanks gentlemen! This has reminded me why I go to this forum for answers, rather than the UK Site! lol.
  6. Davies Craig seems to have one for an R32 GTS. (89-93 L6 2.5 R32 GTS RB25DE 5265) Will this one work?
  7. I've found a fan off of a wrecked R34 GTR with low miles... er... kilometers. (Showing my American roots there.) I would presume that they are interchangeable...
  8. Hello gentlemen, Quick question on the cooling fan for my BNR32. I roars like a damn air-boat. Seriously, under excelleration (with a fairly quite exhaust fitted) all you can hear is the damn cooling fan. Is this normal? I'm thinking it may indicate a siezed fan clutch.... or maybe they all sound like this. Thank you, and greatings from Germany.
