R32 RB25 head and block
Duncan replied to Prof_Finesser's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
1 and 2 are fine (assuming the r32 rb25 was hydraulic lifter), but #3 I doubt there is much certainty because the r32 rb25 was a very rare beast, you might just have to see what fits and post back up afterwards. -

That's A Nice Looking Volvo Mate.......
Duncan replied to Paramour's topic in Four Door Family & Wagoneers
I'm impressed that they didn't stop for fuel half way, must have been nervous to go that far without filling up in a Stagea Seriously though, props to the driver, he obviously knows the place well and treated a borrowed car with respect without babying it either -
Does your car have the divider between the cabin and boot, which includes hooks on the top? If so all you need it the 2 seatbacks, 2 bolts of the right length to bolt down the base (M8 from memory) and there might be 2 more bolts to hold the lower end of the seatback (I can't remember). You might also need the seatbelts and the stalks they plug in to

My R32 GTST From Canada
Duncan replied to CanadianGuy's topic in Members Cars, Project Overhauls & Restorations
That is simply a very good example of the important of perspective. The c8 is no big deal if you see them all the time, just like a GTR is no big deal to us -

My R32 GTST From Canada

Don't do it....everything has an LS in North America (according to the internet at least...) Go the unique, expensive, hard way and enjoy it! -

R32 Nismo steering wheel install help needed
Duncan replied to 32pwwr's topic in Exterior & Interior Styling
Second things first, the horn works be earthing the horn relay through the horn button...so basically that spring piece forms the circuit back through the wheel, boss and steering column to the chassis. It's been a long time since I looked at it but I am pretty sure that yellow wire will be straight plug in into a spade terminal on your boss kit which in turn plugs into the horn wiring loom. As for the boss kit, you might find many of them are non HICAS because many people remove or disable it. I'm not sure where you are located but if it is Australia places like Just Jap have HICAS and non-HICAS options if you want to keep it. All of the adapters are pretty much the same so brand doesn't really matter -
Getting the R32 frontend lower
Duncan replied to Josh K.'s topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
I guess that wasn't exactly a bolt in swap Generally the best option is just not to go too low since you can get reasonable handling out of an R chassis at a little below factory height. If you want to keep going down, there are ball joint spacers for the bottom of the hub, not really much you can do at the top without going very custom (which...you already have...) -
Lifted R32? Jay (LowStandards) has you covered.
Duncan replied to funkymonkey's topic in General Automotive Discussion
Good to see it has a front driveshaft -
Yeah Wakie opened again last week. And to correct the record...only Nissans in this house, other than one hilux paddock basher that I'd love to replace with an equally abused navara, and the tractor

Yep, that is exactly how I would spend your money

I assumed the original motor blew and was rebuilt, and that it was a sensible street build for someone with normal person budget

Welcome Dan As you didn't mention the stock turbo, you should probably add a high flow standard turbo to your list and remove plenum and fuel rail as they are not required for a long time.

Duncan's V37.......race car?
Duncan replied to Duncan's topic in Members Cars, Project Overhauls & Restorations
Yeah the difference is massive, but I'm sure it varies per base car and what you want as a driver. The Fuga (2014) and Titan (2015) also had horrible factory throttle mapping but in both cases I had done an uprev tune which fixed the response without needing a throttle controller. Whoever was in charge of Nissan e-throttle mapping in that period has a lot to answer for -
Duncan's V37.......race car?
Duncan replied to Duncan's topic in Members Cars, Project Overhauls & Restorations
That will be a very good thing if they provide decent improvements, obviously lots of OEM use in screen antennas and even the Stagea's digital TV back in the day had that sort of thing. For now my plan is to replace the existing shark fin with a through roof 4g stubby antenna, will find out if the shark fin held anything important 🤣 In the meantime, proving I have the same sickness as Mark (modifyitis) but a much less severe case, I've sourced a pedal controller for the car, it was about $250 landed with quick shipping https://roarpedal.com/products/roar-pedal-controller?variant=43907318448371 Obviously the red sport has eco, normal, sport, sport+ modes and the main difference is the throttle curve. Even so it was clearly early days of calibrating such things and even in the higher modes (which you need to set each time you start the car) it still has a dead spot off idle that really annoys me. Plus the factory sport/sport+ have the the rev hang and fake engine noises that are pretty annoying for road use (would be fine for racing) The throttle controller is a simple pass through with 2 plugs, 2 minute install then bluetooth configuration from an app. Unlike the factory stuff the setting is retained across drives. It basically has a bazillion options (2 types, 5 modes and 9 settings per mode so about 100 settings), I'm currently using p mode, sport+, level 6 which is nice and responsive but doesn't spin the wheels on dirt every time you touch the pedal. Obviously this car is getting a full tune one day which will include proper throttle mapping, but in the meantime this has transformed how the car feels driving around..... -
Well, Wakefield had it's first meet on the new layout last weekend, for the Super Bikes round.

RB25DET NEO Turbo water return line
Duncan replied to shortyboy's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
Yeah it is very tight getting the lines into some cores and I'm not surprised a generic kit doesn't always fit perfectly since depending on turbo and manifold combinations. In my case I used an AN extension which I had to bolt on before installing the turbo and then changed one of the hose ends from straight to 45o to keep the line away from the compressor cover. You really should either head sleeve or replace the rubber oil return too, it won't last long with all the heat down there -
Can you bypass the damper as well, it can also fail
