i just bought my 1st ever skyline and its a R32 GTR, ive always wanted one since i was on the L's and after all this wait ive got one!! and im in love!!

its a stocker so there isnt enuff power in her YET but i'll change that soon

will be pulling the twin turbo's of and bolting on a single turbo conversion, cams, cam gears, fuel system support, and ECU blah blah blah u guys know the drill

i would like to retain the standard bottom end for as long as i can because im on a budget right now, ill just force as much air down its mouth as i can and see how much power she puts out b4 she pops

any ways thats enuff talk

here a photo of her

dnt crash it now kemp..

i went from GTR to 180sx type x.. to me it was a speed downgrade but upgrade in most other departments..

yeah be a lil more active in the QLD section ull get along with noel and shane

but upgrade in most other departments..<----- explain????

i love my 180 more then the GTR because of the fact its got more work done to it and ive had it for longer

Nice gun metal.

Why don't you keep the twin turbo set up instead?

which turbo u going? :thumbsup:

a single turbo conversion is a cheaper option for me to make power its also neater

right now im aiming for response so im gonna go with the GT3540

Yeh congrats on the GTR brother, very neat :D

I'm keen on a 32 GTR, bought a 33 gts-t but for a little more could've had one of those :thumbsup:

I reckon that'll be my next car, unless i can afford a 33 GTR!

Have fun with it, and don't forget to embarrass the V8s :spank:

gtr===>180 type x

cheaper parts, cheaper insurance, cheaper/better economy, lighter, driftable, hatch boot is good too.. and its newer than my old gtr.. which was a silver genuine 100kms grade4 with more n1 parts than a n1 :thumbsup: twas fully optioned.. nismo dash bilsteins n1 turbos bracing 80mm nismo afms. kakimoto ecu nismo turbo back

but apart from that the gtr was far better to drive prefer the responsive steering and the grip.. esspecially when it rained a while back..

would like to thank every one for there reply's feels very welcoming

*sniff sniff*.. I smell rb26 failure and expensive rebuild comming up.. :(

you obviously know sr20's and silvia's,... you might want to do a bit of research on oil control on these things.

all the best.

car looks great.

i know all about the oil problems that the RB26 engine has

my tuner has made his own billet oil pumps which he has used in a 450kw R32 GTR so i know it works but for now i'm gonna keep the bottom end standard untill i start having problems

like i said B4 im gonna force as much air down its mouth and make as much power as i can untill she pops i would like it to hold together for as long as she can because i realli dont wanna be doing internal work just yet (maybe not ever)

if u want response stay with twin turbo's get a pair of n1's

single turbo =more lag

more lag = less response

yeah i know i can keep it more responsive with a twin turbo setup but its going to cost me more

ii was thinking about going GT2530's but then i went for a drive in my mates R33 GTR and it was a full worked motor with twin 2530's and i wasnt very happy with how it came on boost so i was thinking about twin GT2510's because i'll be happy with 300kw but huge response then after working out all the cost a single GT3540 will be a cheaper option out of it, i know it might not be as good but it works out cheaper

Awesome buy there! I cant wait till ive got one in my driveway, maybe at the end of the year. Wow what a garage the 180 & GTR... ahhhh what to drive today.....he he ive seen you on N.S lovin the 180sx!! Have fun..
the 180 is pretty krazy i'll try and keeep the GTR abit more "normal" Edited by STR8E180

    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
