Hi all, hoping some of you guys can answer a few questions for me.

Firstly, has anyone found a reputable source for bodykits for 4 door R32 GTS-T's? Specifically Vertex style kits?

Secondly, has anyone tryed to fit R33 GTR factory wheels to their 4 door? I know the wheels physically fit, but I would like to confirm how much work in terms of guard flaring/rolling would be realistically required to accomodate these wheels on the 4 door - assuming the car is lowered 1.5-2 inches all around.

Thirdly, R32 GTR rear seats in a 4 door - possible or impossible?

Cheers,

Nick :rofl:

No worries Blitzeh :P

Try G-Force in syd, Avi Prasad is the bloke's name who runs it I think. He's on this forum, and I think he was looking at becoming a sponsor, dunno how he went with it. His website is http://www.jap.com.au in any case. The kits fit pretty well from the ones I've seen, and his prices are pretty damn good. The website has the coupe kit listed only, but I remember him mentioning the 4 door kit was in development last year, so it might be ready now.

Roll and flare of guards required in the front, might be able to get away with a roll only in the back. 4 Doors look tougher with flares all around anyways.

Possible, I've seen a few cars with em done... however the mounting positions don't line up exactly the same, some customising is required, and shutting the door is a little harder.

All possible... A group called Panteraftermarket (www.pantheraftermarket.com) do Vertex bodykits for 4 doors. Or Adrenalin Autosports as well, located in Sydney and Queensland respectively.

R33 GTR wheels will fit. Depending on your ride height, you might have to roll the guards, namely the rears. I had too.

And I also have an R32 GTR seat in my car... fit like a glove.

p.s Are you stalking me?? haha :rofl:

what are the offsets of R33 gtr rims?

ive got 18x9 +30 on the back of mine and they fit without any modifications. and my car is quite low... can just see the top of the tyre under the guard.

are the leather gts-t seats different to other gts-t and gtr seats? cos i tried puttin my mates leather seats in my car (cos mine where out and people needed to be driven places) and the backrest was too short

how do u roll the rears when theres no real guard to roll? theres like 2cm of panel that goers around the wheel

I had it done from group in richmond, just normal guard rolling machine. $50 a corner. It's not all the way round, they just rolled where the tyre would sit and a small surrounding area.

Heres an update for you all.

I have fitted R33 GTR wheels without a problem, mind you the car isnt lowered as yet, however the wheels have advan 225's which are undersized for these rims on a GTR, but work well for this application.

GTST: I had R32 GTR wheels on the car previously and noticed a bit of rub on turn, but havent as yet with the 33 GTR wheels - odd.

For some reason im really keen on the 4 door now and its my new project - so the hunt for parts continues!

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?

      This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
