R32gtr 4wd Problem And Power Steering Problem
SiR_RB replied to gts-23q's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
ok my hicas light used to come on and off while i drive, only for afew seconds on at a time... today i was stopped at lights and it was quiet and soon as i herd the attesa pump (?) in the boot prime the hicas light came on, soon as the pump stopped, the light went off. the hicas light comes on maybe every 3 or 5mins of driving... fluids are fine what the hell can it be? how is the attesa and hicas linked together anyway? -

SiR_RB replied to gtrzilla's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
im gona be attempting to remove my stock suspension and put in nismo s tune coil overs had a look under the car, doesnt seem that hard to remove/replace, unscrew the 2 bolts on the strut tops and the big sigle bolt on the bottom of the shock im going to buy a spring compressor just incase ! -

-
ive done some research on the nismo s-tune coilovers and funnily enough i found a set for sale, in very good nick, not very old at all they are damper adjustable, front spring rates are 5.5k and rear 4.5k my car currently has stock suspension, with 18x10 weds sports wheels has anyone on here got pics of their r32 gtr with nismo s tune suspension ? i would like to see how the car sits... how did the car handle? mines only a streeter, no track time... nengun quotes that they sit around 20mm lower, then standard im assuming, is this good or is it going to look like a 4x4 landcruiser lol any more info before i transfer the money would be GREAT thanks

Gtr R32 For Wrecking Or Selling As Is!
SiR_RB replied to swoooosh's topic in For Sale (Private Car Parts and Accessories)
where ya located? does it have aftermarket suspension? let me know if it does... thanks -
the guys name is Anthony, thats his mob number posted ^^ i asked every when i should drain my oil, every 5000kms ? he laughed, and said minium(!) 10,000kms, apparently the oil continues to work and lubricate and not break down in viscosity like other oils... ps. brother inlaw was running the same neo oil in his 98 series 3 r33 gtr and noticed engine oil temp was lower when pushing the car, engine ran smoother/cleaner and more willing to rev
-
i just purchased 6 litres of Neo Racing engine oil 10w-40 100% synthetic diester base a reputable workshop put me on to this guy who sells it, i payed $160 for 6 litres (1x5litres and 1x1litre) is apparently used in nascar, f1 etc. Made in USA Neo has also helped set land speed records - including the fastest Harley Davidson (set at Bonneville). NEO helped Dale Armstrong engines set their hall of fame records. Over 50% of the European Formula 1 cars use some type of NEO product, and NEO helped the Draco team win two GM Lotus Euro Series Championships. By 1987, every Indy Car that ran a March Engineering Gear Box at Indy use the gear oils and CV joint lubrications developed by NEO. www.neosyntheticoil.com expensive stuff, but you get what you pay for, costs the same as 6liters of motul 300v chrono...nufin but the best goes into my RB26, better spend abit extra and put the best oil in the engine...

i recently fitted an aftermarket stainless steel front pipe and 3" high flow cat to my existing 3.5" cat-back exhaust. i thought while the exhaust is more "free flowing" il remove the boost restrictor thats inside the hose with the yellow band. i took out the little brass thing, took it for a run and its not showing an increase in boost, its exactly where the boost gauage used to sit before ! any ideas why this is happening? its a puzzle to me... also i followed to see where the 2 hoses from the solenoid go and i lost them under the plenum, so i followed the wastegate hoses and they go into steel pipes, travel behind the engine then i guess meet up with the hoses? i also blew air through the hose which had the restrictor in it and i could hear some leaking air/hissing sound from the back under the plenum? is this a prob? thanks fellas !

SiR_RB replied to semislickR32's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
i recently took out my boost restrictor after i fitted my front pipe and high flow cat, and my boost didnt increase after the restrictor was removed ! im still only getting around 11ish psi ! what can be the problem?? -
hey guys ive only had my r32 gtr for afew weeks, and today i got the misses in the drivers seat to press the brakes and make sure all the brake lights work i found that the lights do come on but the reflectors i think dont all light up, for example only half the "hot plates" will light up, one brake light will be much brighter on the top then on the bottom... has anyone had this problem, how can you fix it should i take them out and flush them out with soapy water, maybe change the globes aswell? any info would be great, thanks !

if you have just a 3" cat back on an r32 gtr, how much of gain would you get with aftermarket front pipes and a high flow cat ? leaving the dump pipes stock?
