yesterday on my way home from work.. i found myself next to an unusual R32...

rear end said GTS R with nismo in the top right corner and nissan on the other side.. on the bumper was some jap writing and he had what seemed like N1 skirts and rear pod with a not standard front bar.. although it didnt look like any after market bar ive seen..

Factory?? or what? anyone know of these models?

Haha you mean like this? This photo was taken at the Horsham car show in 2005. If you look closely at the boot it looks as if there has been a type b spoiler on there previously, which makes me think its a GTS.

think its meant to read GTS R32, but the placement of the divider didn't work in the owner's favour. you can tell its not a GTR from the front indicator and the trim on the back seat.

Spot on..... how do I know? Thats my old car!!

Its actually a 93 GTS-t type M with GTR front and boot wing. NO I didn't put any wanky badge on it tho!

There is no such thing in a 32 unless of course they were a GTR shell fitted with RB20 instead of 26?? Never heard of such a thing tho.

you can also tell by the rear guards having no pump compared to a GTR.

HOSTILE made up for driving a fake one by driving one of the hottest GTR's ive seen.

      Rear subframe stay bracket bolt removal issues

      By MBS206 · Posted

      TBH, it sounds like the threads on the bolt are fubar in a specific section. Most likely as you've been working it back and forth it has torn threads out, as you loosen the bolt, this section enters the nut, now you're spinning a round shaft inside the nut, there's no threads here.   Use something similar to a claw on a hammer that will fit either side of the bolt head and try to apply downward force while also undoing it. The idea is to attempt to catch a thread, or just rip the f**ker out. Caution on ripping out, as it could bend/maime/mangle what the captive nut attaches to. If the captive nut is actually okay, you could do the dirty part of cutting the head off the bolt, then cut a slit in the end of the thread that's now exposed and then screw it up and into the area the captive nut is until it falls out the other side. However, this does risk the remainder of the bolt rusting over time and damaging near the captive nut and also making it rust. However, so can cutting pieces of panel work out to access this area if you don't reseal it properly.

      Well, every piece of information on that part when you track it back to Nitto says it's for a KIT of theirs. It is also designed thicker to be stronger. And they speak about a specific harmonic balancer bolt they supply for the whole setup.

      Techniques for removing stuck bolts are: hitting the bolt head with a hammer, heating the bolt to red hot then letting it cool and working it back and forth like you are already doing. AFAIK the idea is to try to crush whatever material is stuck between the threads (and heat also melts locktite but that's almost certainly not relevant in this case).

      Yuh, I think it works with the Nitto gear only. I presume that you're not also using the Nitto gear? Watch the video. Compare the interface between the Nitto gear and washer (on the gear side) vs the stocker and decide if you think the Nitto gear is different from stock there.
