Time to upgrade the anti bot join page.

I'm posting this up for a friend, He's looking for an R32 shell to re-shell his crashed Skyline into. Obviously rolling would make things a lot easier, but he has all the parts required so doesn't need a rolling shell, bare shell is acceptable. Factory sunroof GTS or GTST preferred, but will not pass up a good car just because it doesn't have a sunroof. Complied for Australian road use is also preferred, but if a great shell comes up uncomplied for the right price he'll go through SEVS for a documented re-shell of his old car. Body must be straight, he has front guards, bonnet, boot and doors so they don't matter, a widebody is being installed so minor damage to rear guards is acceptable but they must carry the original shape up the top, at the back, and at the front. Distance isnt' a huge issue, will hire a trailer and travel for the right shell. Post here or contact [email protected] with any information. Thanks in advance, Dan.

SOLD!

Thanks for that, he's coming over soon so we'll get the window up first, then see how we can go about re-soldering the sender. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...=157381&hl= Sounds like the same kind of problem Supra's get with dry solder on the speed sensor. Dan.

Any write ups around on how to fix it? We need to be able to lock the car up this evening lol. Dan.

Hey Guys, Posting this up for a friend as he doesn't have the net. His R32 GTR drivers side window sender has completely died. It has been a bit temperamental for about a week. The shop that sold him the car told him hitting the door trim where the sender is would get it to work when it got stuck, which has worked for a bit, but as of last night the window is completely stuck down. Can anyone tell us which two wires we'd need to power directly to get the window back up, or have a wiring diagram handy so we can work it out? Is this a common problem with 32's, and is there a common fix to the unit? Or just scrap it and find a replacement? Thanks for quick replies. Dan.

Well how about the fact I never said I'd put a T51R or something similar on this particular car? Why be an idiot about it and try and twist my words? In what way would an RB26 with a properly sized turbo have too much lag? Dan.

Ran out of injectors and reached the flow capacity of the 33 GTR cooler I had at the time. Will be back on the road soon with 1000cc injectors, greddy 4-row cooler and virtual works intake manifold. My view on it is I wanted to buy the turbo for my final goal, then work towards it, not waste money on US turbo's, or a smaller turbo, and then upgrade again later on. Going the other way first, and upgrading everything but the turbo with my stock turbo's would of produced a pretty un-inspiring product in my mind. I personally don't like sequential turbo's. Dan.

You didn't actually read my last two posts did you? Try reading the one before that, and re-think your comment. Also the ultimate circuit car is a stripped out dedicated circuit car. I enjoy my creature comforts far too much to have my Supra head that way. Dan.

Oh another thing, I personally don't like cross brand engine swaps, for absolutely no legitimate reason. I just don't like it. Personally I'd love to get ahold of an S15 or late 180sx and do an RB26 swap into one when funds allow, and keep it all stripped out as a dedicated track car. Dan.

My comment on the T51R was in reply to an obvious spool time comment above implying it would only be any good for the drag strip, it's quite capable on the street, it's not of the oldschool mind of "rebuild a giant truck turbo for huge power and no bottom end". I also plan to take it to the track far more than I've ever intended on taking it to the drags. I know there are a few T51R equipped GTR's in Australia, but I get the feeling the post frankxinyu made he'd like that even less than the big turbo on the Supra! I especially love that QLD midnight purple GTR with the T51R, awesome car. Personally if I was building an Rb26 I wouldn't go bigger than a T04z on stock capacity because I don't like that much lag, unless it had been stroked to 2.8L, or had a 3.0L bottom end. But hey, other people don't care about the lag, and they can build whatever they like. Same way someone with small twins would probably look at my setup and think it would have too much lag, as they prefer not dealing with any lag at all. Personally I prefer the tuning done by big name Japanese workshops to a lot of the US ones, as they seem to push out huge dyno and drag cars, but not so much in the way of track cars, however the ones that do come out are awesome. A lot of the big name US Supra's have turbo's 2-3time the size of mine. I never said the RB26 was bad at all did I? In fact I find the engines response and delivery quite refined, especially when compared to other Nissan engines, they just feel so damn smooth. Nissan really did put huge effort into the Rb26 to do exactly what it does the best that they could. Toyota on the other hand over-engineered the 2JZ and 1JZ to hell, I'm personally sure they could of gotten better response and delivery from the factory by working harder with the production goals of the car, but I'm also very thankful that they didn't and provided us with engines that can pull such huge numbers compared to factory specs with only bolt on components, a modifyers paradise. Come to think of it, I think the only "bad" things I've said about GTR's in here are you need to rebuild them earlier in the modifying scope, and they feel like they bog down a bit when taking off in normal driving. Oh and they happen to weigh more than Supra's, which I didn't really bring up in an attack on GTR's, I brought up as an attack on idiots who paint the Supra as a heavy pig without having any idea what they're talking about. Dan.

Actually I love Skylines, found my best mate probably the least strapped 32GTR in aus, also needed a bit of work in maintenance, but he had the money to build up the engine in the first place and was always his intentions. Also sourced my sister an NA 33 for her first car because it was easy to drive, reliable, and looked good. You think just because this is a Skylines forum I should sit back and watch ignorant idiots make comments about things they have absolutely no idea about, just because they're a Nissan fanboy? What, because sydneykid is some regular poster you're going to ignore the stupid comments he's made? Like Supra gearboxes being shit because they're not all made by Toyota? Oh and sorry I forgot to point out the R154, the Toyota JZ 5spd which is plenty strong for most applications. You do realise the Supra V160 and R34 6spd are 95% the same box, calling one shit is calling the other shit. Also I've got no interest in the dragstrip, we don't even have a dragstrip in Canberra, maybe if you had 3L to play with you would be able to enjoy a bigger turbo like a T51R, go whack an RB30 bottom end on your car and try it Dan.

Um, are you stupid? The R34 getrag has pretty much the same guts as the Supra V160, just with a transfer case. Also there are Supra's in the 8's running the getrag, instead of getting an auto, learn to shift. If you mean Getrag make the box and not Toyota, I could say the same for Nissan, their RB boxes are shite, the Getrag however is awesome. End of the day who gives a shit, they come with awesome boxes, I'm perfectly happy to have one of the best gearboxes out there provided OEM in my car, as I'm sure R34 GTR owners feel the same. Personally I wouldn't of bought a Supra if it was awd, heavy shit, and makes the car feel like it bogs down when you take off if you don't fully launch it. RB20/25 are a superier choice? What are the school holidays kids coming out already? Dan.

Or you get heat sheilding made up for the brake and clutch master cylinder, and have the exhaust housing, exhaust manifold and dump all HPC coated. Not exactly hard. Dan.

US Supra's have slightly smaller turbo's, but are steel wheel so can handle more boost. Also they run500cc (i think) low impedence injectors, while the JDM run 440cc high impedence injectors. One of the cams is also slightly larger in the US spec, but I can't remember whether it is the intake or exhaust. Also, none of these things would make a difference when you go for a big build, as they'd all be replaced either way. Dan.

Not sure about the crossmember in the Skylines, but to put an aristo 2JZ into a Supra, you need the Supra rear mount sump, as the aristo is mid mount. The R154 is the 1JZ 5spd, and the strongest option out there next to the Getgrag V160. The W58 will break far easier, and is the 7M or 2JZ-GE box. Also I've been told Aristo's come with slightly larger steel turbo's as opposed to the quicker spooling Supra ceramics. Also, a 1000rwhp Supra on a dynojet would be roughly an 877rwhp Supra on a Dyno Dynamics. Dan.

I saw that rigoli 32 on the road not long after he built it on parramatta rd. pulled up next to him in a friends WRX and my other friend recognised Tony Rigoli. Yelled out "are you tony rigoli? how much for a 10 sec package on this wrx?", he yelled out "buy this skyline instead", and launched it doing fishy's accross three lanes up the road. Dan.

Sorry but wasn't he talking about GTST's/GTT's and VL's? Not Supra's? Dan.

Who needs to rev when you have torque? Dan.

Ah, but what about a 2JZ VVTi? Dan.

You obviously don't know the same Supra owners I do Dan.

Yea, I'm all into the neons and big stereo's. I love idiots in arguments, get them slightly cornered or point out something they've said wrong and they go straight onto the personal attacks, no matter how relavent or even factual they are. And boats? My Supra weighed 1414kg (weighbridge, not factory quoted) with my factory turbo's and intake manifold, which weigh a hell of a lot more than their replacements. Oh and it's a targa top, commonly known as the heavier Supra. R32GTR weighs 1550 and it just gets worse after that. I love how Skyline guys always have some attack at the weight of the Supra when they weigh over 100kg less than their hero car. Plus his car is a Skyline anyway! Not a Supra! Now to get back to the point, we're talking about a 2JZ-GTE auto R31 Skyline vs an RB25-DET R33 Skyline. Nothing to do with Supra's, hell I'd almost be willing to bet money the engine actually came out of an Aristo. He has stock twins, you have an aftermarket high flow turbo. Deal with it. Never said you had internal work done, although if you wanted to make any actual power out of an RB25 you'd have to. Dan.
