Welcome to the ranks of the ancient ones

Setup is all correct there with the cds.

Ideas anyone

Running FAST on D: drive under win2k, FAST itself works well, but Parts Master gives me a "CD PLAYER ERROR" when I try to look up something. Files A1-B2 are on five directories in the form D:NISSANCDA1. Anyone know what could be wrong?

Do they attach the same way, or does the bootlid need to be redrilled or otherwise modified when swapping?

Definition of a GT car was quite broad back in the day, basically any car that would've been considered a sports car, but had a fixed roof, was considered a GT car - even something like the Lotus Elite, I don't think I'd want to tour in that!

One of the guys on GTRC found these two: http://www.king-buyer.co.jp/details.php?carid=1762 http://www.king-buyer.co.jp/details.php?carid=1358 Combine them and see what you get

Stands for carburetted.

What are maintenance costs like on them, more like GTS-t or more like GT-R?

Well I must have goofed that up somehow cos I did it again and she runs like a charm now Cheers

I did this with the exception that the folder I put it in was d:WINNT. Maybe I should try making a "WINDOWS" directory?

Just switched my comp to win2k . . . installed FAST, installed fine, won't run. Oddly enough it seems to have installed the program files BOTH under d:nissancdnissan and under d:program filesnissan. Would someone with win2k or XP be so kind as to post their directory structure for the program files?

#2 all the way WITH stickers

Does anyone know the cD and frontal area for the R32 GTS-t?

What are the fifth gear (and fourth for the auto) and axle ratios of the R32 GTS-4? and the GTS-t?

Looking for an oddball camera lens only available in Japan as far as I know. I seem to remember a company that specialized in buying Japan only items and sending them worldwide. Does anyone know of such an outfit? Thanks J

That first one got thoroughly destroyed in a hurry . . . and he still wants to fix it???

High compression + lowish boost = an engine that's a lot of fun to drive

Disconnect it entirely

Personally I'd go CA18DET. Bit older and perhaps not quite as much potential as the SR20DET, but a lot cheaper and should slot right in very easily, fitting to your standard engine mounts, transmission, etc. Can you get parts easily from the Bamboo in Trinidad? I'm sure someone there would have a CA18DET 180SX or Silvia front cut. By the way I am almost certain the CA18i is throttle body fuel injected, not carburetted. Feel free to correct me if I am mistaken. This would make the CA18DET swap even easier as you would not have to change your fuel system (aside from possibly fitting a higher-capacity fuel pump - but it might be the same pump as any other R32 in which case you wouldn't need to). It has to do with the combustion chamber shape, with a two-valve engine it's a bit tricky to get a spark plug right in the centre of the combustion chamber, so putting one plug on either side of the chamber gives you more complete combustion.

And what exactly is wrong with staged injectors? I wouldn't write the car off that quickly.

Probably a little harder as you couldn't use clutch kick or shift lock. You'd have to rely more on weight-shifting techniques.

Yes, but, with a turbo you are also losing a lot of power due to the extremely high exhaust backpressure (usually a little higher than the boost pressure). Where's Warpspeed when you need him.

Cool and unusual! pics?

Well if you need more info on the swap, there's a couple guys on www.northwestnissans.com who have done several, with or without Silvia front conversion.
