Hey all,

I'm building a list of items to fit in one go to my R32 GTR.

List so far is:

- HKS GT-SS Turbo Kit

- Trust - Greddy - Extension Front Pipe

- APEXi - Power FC & Hand Controller

- HKS - Cam Pulley - Duralumin intake and exhaust

- Power Enterprise - Super Strong Timing Belt

Already on:

- APEXi AVC-R boost control

- APEXi super happy power intake

My queries:

1. Injectors / boost level - Not sure how much boost to run as yet I guess racepace will have a good recommendation - however - what are others running with these turbos and are the stock GTR injectors up to the task?

2. Exhaust - Does anyone have the trust front pipes and what did they use for the rest of the system? how is it?

I need:

a) a high flow cat and b) rest of exhaust that will bolt up - I don't want to muck around with getting flanges changed etc

I much prefer the thing being quiet as well - which does not seem to agree with the jap exhaust market

Recommendations peeps!!

well to get the most of the set-up I would add:

fuel pump (nismo)

sard 700cc injectors

nismo or Z32 afms

basically any 32 GTR system will (should) bolt up to the Greddy front pipes. I would suggest an 80mm or bigger system would be the go.

I have the same set up but with GT2530's insead of GT-SS's, and I have nismo AFM's. I didn't upgrade my fuel pump, or injectors. But I would recomend it. I have a 80mm cat back hooked up to my trust pipes, just boldted straight up. i'd recomend 80mm or bigger, as the trust pipe has a 80mm exit.

cool thanks for the info all

Pity I need to upgrade the fuel system but them's the breaks - want to do this properly and all at once. Gives me a good excuse to get rid of the leaky factory injectors anyhow.

So im adding

- Nismo fuel pump

- 2 x Nismo AFM's

- 700cc SARD injectors

- Trust PEII cat back and ill sort out a cat over here

Now I just gotta get it past management :dry: and i'm away - too easy

If Ben is doing the work i'd chat to him first about the exhaust :dry:

Also the other parts, depending on what you need, you dont "need" AFM's.

Ferni doesnt, he is another Racepace GT-SS setup with stock injectors/AFMs. There are a few small tricks, so have a chat first is my suggestion before purchasing.

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
