^ so much love for this car..from memory you have meisters?

i'm currently waiting for mine to come from japan :D

Cheers. Yeah, still rolling on Meisters. Was going to sell them to get something different at the start of the year, but decided to stick with them.

You importing a 32 as well?

On topic, some more pics from the downshift meet

U should bring your front lip back to factory...I think they look best in that low sheen grey. And besides that, there will be no paint to chip and crack :)

Front bar was rattle can painted by the person I bought it off.

Waiting to get some spare cash for a respray and then am planning on returning the front lip to that colour. My wife gave birth to twins at the start of last year, so at the moment there are a lot more priorities before the car even enters the picture, and when it does, it's generally just basic maintenance. Aesthetics are a long way down Maslow's hierarchy of needs

what are you paying for your meisters? Probably the most suitable rim for the r32!

I completely misread his statement as waiting on his r32 to arrive from Japan. Had I actually looked at this profile, I could have seen he already owns one...

I understand your position as I have a 2 yr old and an 8 week old baby...congrats on your twins, that would be very cute :)

Btw - I too have a small 'to do' which has been sitting on the bench for way too long, due to other priorities hehe

Yeh haha i already got the car, just waiting on rims. i got them on special from the jdm concept business listings sale. still an expensive rim but at the end of the day i couldn't pass up on the price compared to what they normally are :P nor could i allow myself to roll around on rota's or some shit :P (no offence to rota owners)

and yeah they really are the best rim for 32's

will be followed by pics in the weeks to come.

That's my old car (kandy red one).

Body has always been GTR spec (front and rear guards, bumper, skirts etc etc.).

Went back to bare metal for a fresh ground up build.

A deposit has been taken on the completed project so it's not mine anymore :(

But I recently bought a white R32 GTR which I'm building for myself. ;)

what is the process in smoothing down an engine bay?

basically rubbing it all back, then welding plates in instead of using bog. my radiator support also doesn't have any holes now. going to hate putting the motor back in along with everything. going to cry if i scratch it

    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks
