  1. Nissan Navara D40. I bought one a few weeks ago and its the one that FPG use in their power steering kit
  2. My rotisserie is due to be delivered next week and I need to get my R32 mounted on to it. I know how to mount it on the actual rotisserie but those of you that have, did you add any additional bracing to the chassis? I was planning on welding some 1x1 box section across the top of the seatbelt buckles, across the back seats and then down to the front footwells (and possible across from there also? I've also put the behind dash bar back in to give a bit more strength. Its mostly going to be the floor and sills being cut out with a little on the rear quarters
  3. Very slightly as there are bars connecting both sides of the ramp. The only difficulty that I had was doing the gearbox, everything else so far has been ok
  4. I went for the scissor lift option, gives a 3ft lift at full lift. I wanted a 2 post but my concrete wasn't deep enough to secure it properly
  5. Amazing, thank you
  6. Hi All Does anyone know what size bolts are used to mount the bonnet hinge to the bonnet on an R32 GTR please? I'd usually just buy them OEM but they are nearly £20 each and I need all 4
  7. Its likely to be 70% road 30% track usage, track usage will increase if anything. Decided not to fit it as I cant be arsed changing the bushes on my LCAs again 🤣 I did get the below back from GKTech though so they should work together The anti-squat kit and roll center adjusters work independently since they change the rear lower control arm's angle in different ways. The anti-squat kit adjusts the angle from front to back, which impacts anti-squat values. Roll center adjusters change the angle side to side, mainly to correct geometry on cars that are significantly lowered. They might affect each other a tiny bit, but overall, you can think of them as separate.
  8. Ah, that does change things then as I have Nismo LCA's with Superpro poly bushes fitted. Frame is out of the car as I still need to weld in the reinforcement plates before painting my frame and fitting the new bushes.
  9. Hi All Finally getting back to work on the R32 this weekend and had a quick question about the GKTech anti squat kit (https://au.gktech.com/products/s13-180sx-r32-subframe-anti-squat-reduction-weld-in-kit?_pos=39&_fid=eb6b5077e&_ss=c) So, this straightens out the rear LCA and increases the roll centre by 20MM which is great BUT I also have MFR roll centre adjusters (https://www.rhdjapan.com/moonface-super-lap-rc-joint-roll-center-adjuster-bnr32-ps13-rps13.html) which gives a +15MM lift. My question is whether they can/should be used together or if its going to massively effect the geometry? In my mind, I can't see that they work together but was hoping for some feedback on someone who has done this before deciding which to use or if both? Thanks
  10. Been going back and forth on these for the past year. I like them but also thinks it makes the front end look a bit goofy.
  11. Received what should be the final delivery for the rear overhaul. Only thing I still need to buy is a Nismo diff but that can wait a little longer Also need to get some sheet metal to put some strengthening plates into the Nismo A-Arms - Seems strange the 33/34 Nismo arms have them but the 32 doesn't The Nismo bushes (Rear lower A-Arms & Upper Links) will be for sale soon because I bought Superpro ones instead Bosch ABS sensors to match the PRP ABS adaptors
  12. I like these 2 pics of mine
  13. Got quoted £50 per knuckle to vapor hone them, so bought a sand blasting cabinet and did it myself Pretty happy with the first attempt I didn't get a before picture, I was too excited to use my new toy The knuckle was pretty much black though when I started
  14. Its been a while since the last update, I've been collecting parts to overhaul the suspension - Most of the bits have arrived, theres still a few bits to come in the next few weeks and still to order I started by overhauling the ATTESA unit I stripped it down, Cleaned the main unit and replaced all O-rings, bolts, Accumulator, Pressure Switch and painted a few bits And done! For anyone swapping the accumulator, a 3-inch socket makes life a hell of a lot easier And a big pile of parts ready to go on, with more still to come over the next few weeks 😐
