Hey all, i am in the middle of getting my r32 gts-t looking flash before i put it in to get a respray and i have decided to put r32 gtr front guards on it. It already has the gtr bonnet and grille and i was just wondering what needs to be changed in order to get these guards to fit? I am under the imperession that the indicators need to be changed...is this true? I am also getting a GTR front bar for it so will i need a genuine one as opposed to the copies that are made for gts-t's if i have gtr guards? Anything i have missed or got wrong?

Thanks in advance!

Ryan

ok so side skirts as well. Yippee!

So i'm looking at.

1) Genuine GTR front bar

2) GTR rio

3) GTR indicators

4) New side skirts

5) Inner guard liners...(yes i am anal haha)

Might have to hit up a import wreckers at some stage and see what the bill is gonna be. Any ideas of where to find a genuine GTR front bar or is it just a matter or keeping your eyes peeled?

Cheers again.

Hi guys,

what is "GTR rio"? and if I wanna to do GTR rear guard panels as well, what else do I need?

Cheers

special edition bumper support bars manufactured in brazil.

ok ok they're just a bumper support bar that attaches to the chassis that you attach the bumper to. If youw anna do the rear quarters as well then you'll need a C pillar back quarter panel (can be very expensive)... that's if you wanna do it in metal. Failing that that get fibreglass skins that go on top of the existing GTSt guards from any good chinese made "Drift" bodykit retailer.

Put some front gaurds on mine a while back. Just changed gaurds indicators and wheel arch plastics. if you have fibre glass front bar and side skirts its easy as to remould to suit wider gaurds. as for the rio, you can change it but like is said fibre glass moulding can solve all that. Im pretty sure that jetspeed can solve your rear guard problem, they have a fibre glass wide body kit, much like you see on silvias. It just fits over your metal guard, Whether you mould it or go for the drift pig pot rivit look is up to you. I just had my standard metal guards flared out as far as the could possibly go. Looks realy good. But depends what look you are goin for.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.

      There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
