Hi guys Im new to this site and I thought I would post a few pics up of my R32 drift pig. From experience I would have to say that a 32 is easier to slide than an s13 plus its a skyline haha. RB20's are the bomb. This car lived on limiter while I had it and nothing broke at all except for the stock turbo.

Heres a pic of the thing after me and some mates got got wasted and decided we were fullsick (sarcasm) graffiti artists haha $.post-35562-1171911349.jpg

I live in Townsville and I bought it from some dude down on the coast for $7k with a roadworthy (dunno how he got it cause every thing but the engine was stuffed).

List of mods:

Replaced stuffed shocks with less stuffed JIC coilovers

rb25 turbo (rear wheel on the stocker cried enough and tried to escape out the exhaust).

front mount

screamer pipe off the internal gate

set of 18 inch dishies (nicked of my soarer)

gtr drivers seat

nismo 2-way diff

new r32 gearbox

new exedy clutch

front and rear strut braces

tubosmart bleed valve set at 0.9 bar

made 162 rwkw on dyno dynamics dyno

The rest of the pics show it in various stages. Anyhow me and a mate from uni ended up giving it a backyard 2pac paintjob in that baby blue commodore colour and fitting a URAS kit.

Just sold it and I thought I'd be happy just cruising around in my soarer ( manual got a Trust T78-33d ) but Im having RB withdrawls so if anyone is selling a manual R33 gts25t for $11-13k pm me.

markimak. yeah in hindsight it was pretty foolish. but the paint was shagged anyway so it didn't matter.

In the end it turned out OK and I had to sand all that crap off of it while prepping it for paint so I learnt a fair bit at the same time.

Dude if you think I would do that to a clean GTR like yours or something, you are mistaken :laugh:

      Unpeeling the Orange

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!

      Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.

      The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!

      The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
