this is my dream 32 4 door. except it would have to have a stock GTR kit all over it. even the stock rims finish it off nicely.

if i got around to it id make the rear wide body spec like the GTR thoe. not easy when you have a door to include.

Stock kit going on next month :P and the rear is rolled as far as you can take a 4 door. If you saw how much addon rear guards were for 4 doors, you'd probably choke ;). Although you can get them :(.

Meisters weren't mine and long gone :).

Vivagarge has the rear wide quarters for a 4 door

$480 for both sides

its 4 pieces one on quarter and one on door on each side

they arre 25mm wider

i had seen a set once on yahoo actions but that was it. but 25mm is hardly enough to notice.

i think the best would be to buy the gts to GTR rear guards off car mate. they only go on the lower half of the body work just like the GTR and mate that suit a 4 door.

anyway good luck with it.

While I wait for the GTR bar to go on with Grill (woot finally) I thought I might post an update about the car. Recently got the car tuned down at Status in Victoria and it went from 200rwkw to 245rwkw. Apparently one of the, if not the, highest power out of a 'stock' 26 at 14psi Status has seen :P.

I have cam gears sitting on the passenger seat but was recommended that they are largely a waste of time. And it's getting a lot more road time now :). Also forgot to mention I have since put a Nismo super coppermix twin plate in, awesome clutch.

No pics of the interior atm because it's sort of unfinished. And the engine bay isn't particularly exciting because i've gone out of my way to make it stock looking (well except that the covers are all painted blue :blink:). Will try and get something though.

Last weekend at the top of buller sub 3 degree weather fresh after a detail.

Thought I might give an update.

Car has been good, just fixed up a few annoyances like the power steering setup and mounted the gauges. I've put some brembos on and 33R rims to clear them.

Also transferred a few goodies over to the daily as things get updated :).

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
