    Hello, My R32 GTR has a small hesitation when changing throttle position when cruising at 100km/h. Its always had a small one but now its gotten worse. Full throttle is fine. background. 1) No MAF's 2) Splitfire coil packs 3) Nismo plugs (good check few months ago) 4) Compression 180-190 across all 6 5) Changed coil harness as the old one was brittle and fell apart but it didnt fix the issue 6) Stock ignitor (thinking its this) 7)HKS F-Con V pro had a touch up tune start of the year 8 ) vaccuum seems fine 9) Alternator is at about 13.8V 10) fuel filter has just been changed 11) Tomei FPR 12) -5 twin turbos Any ideas? Thanks

    Correct I already had Splitfire coil packs in there so didnt think the $1300kit was required to convert to R35's.

    Thought I would chuck this up here as I got a new coil harness from Wiring Specialists in the states. Turned up and looked great so I replaced the standard item in my BNR32 and the old connectors latterly fell apart. Well worth the $99USD. Would recommend sorted out a slight hesitation I had when opening throttle.

    Interesting Im about to order the 12T balancer and trigger kit for my 26. Tuner swears by them.

    The car is a street car 99% of the time. It is about 360kw atw but that is going up to 400 soon with a new set of injectors and retune. I am replacing my sloppy R32 gearbox with a newer R33 unit I got from a wrecker (50,000 less kms on it and the transfercase). So while its out I will replace the Exedy which has done 40,000kms and about 6 years of service. The Exedy is just a dog to drive anyone that attempts to drive my car stalls it and the wife is far to scared to even get in the drivers seat. I have heard some good things about Mantik and some people say they are rubbish. But I think for the price I cant overlook it.

    Hello, I am looking at getting a Mantik Twin plate 9000 series ceremetallic sprung centre clutch and would like to hear from anyone you has had/used one on a GTR? Before you say go get a Nismo I can get these at cost so its less than 1/2 the price (well less). So even I had to do 2 of them in the life of a Nismo im still saving money. But I still dont want a dog a clutch like my current Exedy Twin plate carbon rubbish....the wife to sacred to drive it with this in it.

    I ran an 11.4 at @121 mph and an 11.5 @ 123mph. 1.8 to 60ft which I have done 1.7 before on a prepped track so it should have been an 11.2. Around 22PSI on -5 turbos and a tune recheck put me at 360kw as the old tuner inflated my numbers. Stock wheels now with 225/50/16 Good Year Eagle 1's.....not the best drag rubber so the results make me pretty happy. Only engine upgrade is a Plazmaman intercooler and new BOV's as im going bigger injectors now to hunt my 10 sec pass on low mount -5s and 2.6L. Will upload slips later.

    Loving this....rip out the engine and rebuild it again for now reason and put it back together with a big BW turbo with a pipe straight out the bonnet. That be fun. 90's power curve FTW thats all ya need to scare the tits off ya mrs. Who wants to go REAL fast with all these cops around you just want to scare the passenger on a full pull hahaha. Send IT!

    Actually real good point. Thanks man.

    Yeh plan is to get a Frenchys performance Garage In Tank surge tank with 2 E85 pumps. This means I do not get any compliance issues having a surge tank and no smells. ID 1350x injectors Link G4+ with ethonal content sensor (already purchased) so good bye HKS F-Con you have done me well. Fuel lines 2 feed 1 return so I am future proofed and dont have to worry about fuel lines been old or ever again haha.
  11. Stixbnr32
    Oh yeh thats good to know. I do not have hicas lines now removed them all years ago when the engine was built. Thanks for the information.

    After 4 years at about 350kw I went in to my tuner after I installed my new intercooler to get a checkup. All 6 cylinders had awesome compression and the dyno still showed 354kw atw (lower conversion method used as well). Looking at the shops workers car with the same head setup and turbos using E30 he was getting 437KW...a big jump in response. It convinced me this E thing is worth the investment - now to order some Speedflow 200 series lines. How long are the stock lines in an R32 I cant find anything about that. I know the car is 4500mm. So I was going to get 13m should be enough for 2 feed lines and 1 return. Surely someone has noted it before Thanks.
  13. Stixbnr32
    hahahaha this made my day. Fair enough and answers my question.

    Hey Anyone using the internal waste gated Borg Warner turbos? Everyone loves a screamer pipe but not legal in NZ and like to keep cops off my back. Do they do the job for 500kw cars? Thanks.
  15. Stixbnr32
    its more all the synchros im interested in. Are they ppg as well?
  16. Stixbnr32
    Hello, I was wondering if anyone has used/tried the upgraded synchros from the sheptrans catalogue? http://sheptrans.com/product/gtr-r32-transmission/nissan-skyline-gt-r-r32-r33-5-speed-transmission-rebuild-street-strip/ Thanks

    Yeh the box has been overhauled once before (5 years ago). I was thinking of doing a fluid change but didnt think that will make a difference to it popping out of gear off boost. I may have an opportunity to get a gearbox (no transferase or shifter which I dont need) for cheap. Then when this one is out I can rebuild with stronger.
  18. Stixbnr32
    The 100mm is the competition series rated to 1500hp isnt it? The 76mm is rated for 950hp which I will never surpass. That would be enough wouldnt it?
  19. Stixbnr32
    I am in the process of gathering some new upgraded parts and then going for a retune. So i want to replace the stock cooler because I will be pushing well over 400kw and I have decided to go with a 76mm Plazmamam intercooler. Can I install it without a retune? I know I will not get great benefit but its an easy job and will look much nicer than the stock 26 year old one. Just because I am not tuning it for another 3 months or so. But you know everyone wants there car to look nice :). Thanks.

    Hey guys - So I had issues with my gearbox coming out of 4th gear off throttle. My mechanic looked at the joint from the shitter into the gearbox and we replaced it anyway but no change. Then my tuner actually took it apart as he noticed the boot at the bottom of the shifter was gone so that made these quiet again and also stopped some fluid spilling over the top. He also noticed that the shifter had some parts install wrong and fixed this (grrrr at my mechanic). This fixed the 4th gear pop out issue but then I was driving along and off throttle again and 5th gear popped out which it has NEVER done. Now im just confused as to why its changed from 4th to 5th with a correctly installed shifter. Any ideas?
  21. Stixbnr32
    I have been weighing up what to do with my gearbox in my 32 as well. Its either spend $7000AUD+install on a PPG Helical 5speed dog set and be done with it. Or OS Gearset (as you say mixed reviews) for about $3100 plus shipping and wait time+install Or Rebuild it again for another $2000 and just see how long it lasts this time. As for 6spd only real options that i know of are Sequential or R34 Getrag but they are way to costly for me.
  22. Stixbnr32
    That is real interesting. Please post before and after results. I might talk to a well respected Turbo builder in NZ and see if he ca do similar before I go for a tune.
  23. Stixbnr32
    Yeh I am formulating a plan to switch to E85 on my -5's. Bet these are far to laggy for a street driven GTR.
  24. Stixbnr32
    I wonder how they would go on a highly modified 2.6L in place of my -5's. Probably far to laggy.
  25. Stixbnr32
    Yeh I got pod filters they sound the same :). I could get the atmosphere vent kit and remove the all the recirc system as I run MAP sensor but didnt see the need to create a lot of noise.
