To answer first querstion I live in SE London UK

Also sorry but the spec did not upload which is as follows

Origonally an RS Four V now has a RB26 engine with manual gearbox with uprated clutch

Engine (at present)

Standard plus apexi power induction and elbows. Has front mounted intercooler with HKS hard pipes ,Aluminium radiator (big) and seperate front mounted oil cooler.

Exhaust - HKS downpipe with decat pipe and custom 3 1/2 " straight through exhaust that has been done to take a GTR pattern rear box.

Car was dynod yesterday (not for pub talk but to decide where to go next) On 0.7 boost gave 330 bhp which was abouit as expected.

Engine runs with perfect oil pressure no knocks etc. It was running lean at peak revs so it is getting an uprated fuel pump which will be done in two weeks time when it will also get an HKS EVC5 and either a power Fc or hks equivalent. Should then be good for around 425 bhp and even on raised boost should not overheat as it runs nowhere near hot at present.

It has been lowered and has EL Sport suspension . Will be fitting gold brembos ( from R34gtr) front and back on saturday. These are from my other Stagea so all mods have been done already. Unfortunately there is no way the existing enkoi wheels can be used because of the offset so will be swopping the wheels over as well which are 17" Advan model 7 wheels which have new goodyear F1s. (235s) These will be changed for some LM1s when or more exactly IF I can find some.

I am told bodykit is Nismo and the kit and it is identical to the mustard Nismo stagea thats on the web . This is apart from front grille which is being arranged and the front indicators which are to low for the UK so have been changed

Colour is the pearlescent mettalic green that flips in the light to black/dark mauve.

Interior - Front seats are charcoal/grey recaros and have done the rear seats and door panels to match . It has a Custom 6 speaker sound system with 4 chanell amp and Sony multifunction head unit this has twice as many modes as I can cope with This was fitted in Japan. Also apexi el 2 electronic boost guage . Speedo has carbon front and blue backlighting.

Other mods Polished alloy breather / windscreen washer tank which is where battery was. This has been moved to the back.

Actually one of my favouite mods as the standard battery it exactly the right size to fit in the compartment with the cover above the rear nearside wheel . Or it was once I had modified the existing plastic box, It is also only a foot away from the main rear earthing point of the car which of course helped.

I will post the dyno results as soon as the other mods have been done.

      Selling my TE37SLs since I've switched to smaller wheels.  They're for sale in Japan but it's pretty simple to send them overseas; USA excluded, since JPPost isn't sending there at the moment. Specs Front: 18x9.5j +22 5x114 Rear: 18x10j +20 5x114 Price: 320,000 JPY/ 3,285 AUD (current FX rate) Condition: a few scratches here and there, no bends, distortions or cracks.  Tires will not be included for international buyers, I'll get them dismounted before shipping. They're currently listed on yahoo auction and will be shipped in Japan with the tires if they sell here. Shipping costs to Aus: EMS (1-2 weeks): AUD 1,175 (current FX rate) Sea (2 months): AUD 460  (current FX rate)

      The alloy coolant reservoir has a sight glass, so as long as I can see coolant in the sight glass it's GTG, as for PS, it isn't anything catastrophic if it gets low, and as it hasn't lost a drop since I have owned the car I cannot see it being an issue, even after putting the "big block" 2.5 in....LOL The only time it gets slightly messy is at oil changes, as the oil filter sits above the frame, and I need to use a plastic bottle with its bottom cut off to catch the flow when loosening the filter

      Single Turbo Conversion On R32 GTR.

      By Duncan · Posted

      Good on you for taking on the job, but it is a big one. Even if you have bolt on manifold and turbo, you will need: Post throttle pressure source to boost controller to wastegate (and FPR, and ECU/MAP sensor) Pre throttle pressure source to top of BOV(s) Oil feed - you can take that from the standard port in the middle of the block Oil return to block under the turbo - this is much trickier than it seems to route a decent/wide pipe past the manifold. You really can't use rubber hose because it is way too hot there, and also the oil out of the turbo core is a bit frothy so it needs to have a decent diameter Water feed - you can take that from the standard port in the rear of the block. Water return - mine runs to a T into the heater box return, just make sure you don't create a high point making bleeding hard. All of those lines should use 200 series style teflon braided hose with heat shielding because everything needs to be routed past the manifold. Also a turbo beanie is a really good idea to minimise the chance of the car catching fire (under bonnet lining in particular) You also need to decide a cam cover breathing solution as well, will you vent externally via a catch can (probably illegal) or return to the intake (plumbing required and can oil up everything over time) Keep in mind the intake and exhaust piping in the engine bay will be custom so you either need to be able to fab ally and steel or have someone you can get a car that isn't running to. Get the wideband fitting welded into the dump pipe at the same time. Also, just my opinion, a screamer pipe attracts attention and doesn't add power, I'd plumb it back if you want to be allowed to keep the car on the road. BTW do you know anything about how healthy the motor is, and what power you are targeting? Doubling or tripling the factory power on an unknown motor is a little risky. Also fuel system will need some attention (pumps, high current hanger, direct power and earth feed, injectors etc)
