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
