Hey Russ I'm still in two minds whether I want to upgrade to an S3 R33 GT-R this year or keep the R32. I've got such an emotional attachment to this thing it will be EXTREMELY hard to part with ;) I guess after 3.5 years of ownership it would be nice for a change... Hmmm want another R32 Russ? :rofl:

Nah 1 is enough for my wallet. Just keep it man. Buy a house instead. 33's suck anyway :(

Nice!

Have you considered lowering it? Front would look a fair bit better if it sat a bit lower in my opinion... still car looks really clean!

Hey thanks.

Yeah definitely going to lower it in the future. At the moment it has damper adjustable suspension but i agree with you. Wouldn't bring it down too much lower though, maybe an inch or so.

Looks nice!

Needs more low up front.

Thanks, yep still agreeing with that. Although all my previous skylines were low and used to cop a fair bit of hate from driveways, speed bumps and police. So not too low this time.

Cheers Jimmy,

Not normally a fan of mesh wheels but really diggin' yours ey! I reckon they suit it well :(

r32's and circa SSR mesh rims go 2ge4 like brangelina.

im keeping my eyes peeled for a set but i want 9.5 and 10.5 for epic fatness. going to be hard to find i know... expensive too.

I only have about 4-5mm clearance on the front calipers and probably 10mm clearance on rear.

I saw a set of 11.5's on Yahoo JP (which is where I got my set from)

Ultimately I wanna run the 9's up front and find some 10's for the rear. But as you said, finding FORMULA mesh, in 5 stud, in 17inch is f**king hard.

I love my uniqueness :(

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
