Really enjoyed viewing this thread and poking around other projects. I will have a 32 GTR one day (next race car build if the wifer lets me).

But at the moment I have to settle for bulding it's nemesis.........

That's awesome Lincoln!

Where are you based mate?

Thanks am in Melbourne.

Do the modern day turbos on the seirra reduce the lag much?

Still have a old school turbo for strength and reliability - have a maram 247 shaft and wheel. Have upped the compression and i'm guessing more suitable adavance with the e85 but will still be lucky to see full boost (30psi) before 3500rpm. Good things done these days with twinscroll and may go there after as the standard cossie exhaust manifold was designed for it.

You a Targa nut? Man I love Tassie.

Thanks all.

Man I love the detail in this, all the little things that people like me always want to do, such as the carbon bonnet pin surrounds and mirror mounts etc, but never happens, your car has it all, so neat.

and dont sneeze at 30psi by 3500rpm most of us wish could get that in skylines.

Hell my stock turbo soarer wouldnt get that lol.

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
