R32 Gtr tomei exhaust thoughts?
Sinista32 replied to darkparagon's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
TI is sexy and light. Sound is your choice so youtube the ones your keen on. Lads like em loud which isn't y cup of tea. I run the HKS Super Turbo system, which after many jap brand systems, this one is by far the best for my needs. Passes RWC/RTA inspections. Opens up to a very nice note after about 3300rpm. Custom is fine for 3.5 inch and upwards, flows best for large power applications. As for not being deflectable depends on DB's @ 3000-3200 rpm -
Sorry - JJR used to have OEM now it seems they only have FRP

That's good, a good price. Probably remove the SAMCO upper and lower radiator hose set for $128 as your quote already has the OEM set in it. Grab the metal under plenum tube for $38 and water tube on the upper timing case. Tendency also to either rust or leak. You have all the blow bye hoses included too. So yeah, a very good price.

Depends what you asked for http://www.kudosmotorsports.com/catalog/water-pass-heater-hose-piece-nissan-skyline-p-1653.html From the Kudos website for the R32 GTR. $312 for the genuine Nissan 10 hose kit But if your OCD like me - there is also air hoses (2 or 3) and the radiator hoses upper and lower ($150). and for good measure at a great price is the metal water tube (under plenum) for $40 and water tube on the upper timing case.

Getrag Parts Discontinued?
Sinista32 replied to No Crust Racing's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
Thanks Dan - How many total K's on your Skyline? Last year I bought a new Nismo 6speed Getrag conversion kit for my R32 (not cheap). I understand its stronger and better syncro's than my OEM 5 speed. So it interests me to know of Getrag issues and failures. I dont hear of many failures (not due to constant abuse). You running a twin plate Nismo clutch. I constantly hear of people not putting in the clutches cleanly causing problems too. -

Sinista32 replied to No Crust Racing's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
Dan, I'm interested in what sort of abuse, if any, you put your Getrag through for the 3rd syncro 3/4 selector hub needing replacing? Normal wear/tear or Bcos race car ? -

Your right - compliance was done Dec 2016. Can't go past Ohlin shocks

I haven't inspected it However it looks genuine in the photos presented. A few things have been added to it other than the exhaust. Handbrake boot, aftermarket head unit, front shocks, strut brace, floor matts - nothing of importance really. I like that it has the OEM wind deflectors, the c-pillar internal trims are intact. Worth looking at. $49k asking price I suppose is pretty good with the way 32's are going up in value over the last 12months. One thing gets my goat in the description "neck breaking acceleration". If you've driven an OEM 32 it's stretch to describe it like that. Just the linear way in which they accelerate negates "neck breaking acceleration". Would you drive it or park it is the question

Sounds like you may have been duded. Highly likely the previous owner has had it checked out and may know the issue (and cost to fix). Get a good mechanic to go over it now. Obviously would have been best to do this ^ before parting with your hard earned! We live, we learn
-
Don't always trust the oil pressure gage. At best it gives an indication. Sometimes the gage or the oil pressure sender just fails. Obviously don't drive it until diagnosed correctly. Get another gauge on it and test it and go from there. Yes it could be the oil pump, or it could be something else. If your still talking to the previous owner it wouldn't hurt to ask the history.

I think your on the money. Time for a high flow OP6

On the scab for a 2nd hand mobile phone (unlocked) in good working condition for no or low cost. PM me if your holding on to your old mobile and how much you may want $$ for it. Managed to buy then break 2 iPhones recently, so just looking for something to get by with and use as back-up.

Advice On Early R32 Rebuild
Sinista32 replied to ltjpunk7's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
The only mod to avoid this is replacing the crank collar that mates to the oil pump and securing the oil pump. After some other good advice hey. Always keep your fuel tank over a quarter to a half full on the track to prevent fuel surge (fuel cut) due to air in the fuel lines caused by the fuel slopping around in the tank under hard acceleration / cornering. Keeping it over quarter to half should prevent this. -

Put the extra 0.5 litre of oil in. Keep an eye on the oil pressure. Be prepared for the oil starvation and spun bearing. -
