Hi All

I'm a fanatic, a devoted rev head and I realised on of my many dreams recently.

I just bought a R32 GTR on the weekend, wanted to say hi and i'm chuffed (albeit also in DEBT for a very long time). 93 model, excellent condition and they still make new cars look old and boring (as far as i'm concerned) and well really to get the same value and calibre of sports/racing car brand new you're looking at a minimum of $60,000.

It has to be said, i'm excited - big kev style (bless his soul....not really)

and skylines Rock! - Particuarly GTR's

My CAR

Can't wait to take it to the track (eventually after debts have eased), the only place to truly test this cars performance.

lol head shots were the plenty on sunday, must have been the in thing to get hit there.

Nice 32 you have there, word of advise change the oil pump drive if it has not been done already.

Are you going to bring the car on Thursday to K's???

cheers

yeah spose i'll bring it along, we'll see might wanna drink a bit...hmmm...beer.

yeah i'd like to do a bunch or reliability work on it but got to ease the debt durden a bit. There are plans, oh yes, but just gotta save up a bit first.

Welcome to the forums, congrats on one of the best(and worst due to the money you'll spend) cars to buy for its price tag.

Julian, I have met you a couple of times, you work with Ian - my guardian?

Also you're R32 is brilliant, saw it at summernats on the dyno which was great! and also at the shannons car show. Very very nice car!

Do you know where i might be able to get my hands on a 4.5inch silencer/restrictor?

Ian mentioned you might have an exhaust that i may be able to borrow, perhaps? mine is too loud. I can rent and/or pay deposit.

    • Just to be clear, there were no lights or codes when the hiccups were occurring. Also nothing noticeable in the cars' braking. It brakes fine and the dash is clear. I only made the connection when it did throw a code and suddenly, despite the lights, it felt great again. 
    • Yeah they are sliders and this was in my head before I worked out it was the speed sensor.
    • Ok so we have a smoking gun.  A few weeks ago I had to replace a speed sensor that I'd fit incorrectly. I replaced the sensor and everything was fine with no lights or codes thrown any longer.  When I was doing some more bedding in yesterday I got ABS and traction control lights again and, considering when this happens those things are disabled, the pedal went back to normal with smooth braking and no hiccups.  The codes thrown are for the same speed sensor that I replaced. When I looked at the sensor I took out it looks like the tip of the sensor is damaged. So whatever happened to it, perhaps it has damaged the magnetic ring on the bearing (that I only replaced the other week). I'll get my boroscope in the hole where the sensor goes and see if there is any damage in there. Hopefully just the tip of the sensor is in there and the bearing is fine. 🤞🏻  It's worth noting also that the pedal hiccup happens more often and for longer periods now and totally goes away when the codes are thrown again which happens usually after 5 or so minutes of driving. Love all your help here as usual guys, thanks!
