Hey everyone!

Im new member on here and though id post up my R32 Sedan. Ive had it for about a year now and its slowly come together and ive learnt alot about car setup and driving etc being my first car and all ive done alrite couple of things i might change but so far so good.

MOTOR:

RB20DET

Xtreme Ceramic Clutch

GTR Front Mount

GTR Fuel Pump

Pod Filter

Turbosmart Type 2 BOV

3"in Turbo Back Exhaust ( Straight through no mufflers nothing )

2.5" Twin Straight Pipes Rear

SUSPENSION:

HSD Coilovers 10/8

Whiteline 22mm Front Swaybar ( Adjustable )

GTR Rear Swaybar

Poly Urethane SwayBar Bushes All Round

Castor Rods

Rear Upper Arms

Traction Rods

HICAS Lock Bar

Cusco Strut Brace

Rear Cradle Bushes

INSIDE:

Bride Zeta

Trust Harnnes

320mm Nardi

Here are some picks of when i first got it and just put in my HSD Coilovers. Back when i thought super low cars were cool but soon found out they handeld like crap...

Then i lost my licence, so id though id chage the look too GTR front conversion, I got all the panels at different times and was unlucky about missing out on a pair of silver front gaurds but soon enough it will get painted one day but thats not inportant right now and it didnt really cost that much either to do...

And after 5 months have past and 3 days of having my licence back i still had my grove, the new setup i have now is great having everything adjustable and a good wheel alingment all works a treat im pretty happy how the car is atm...

So now im going to do an engine conversion it will take some time so ill still get some more track time and so forth before the new motor goes in. I was going just to do RB25 gear box and one piece tailshalft but then a RB25 motor came up for a reasonable price.

Ill keep everyone posted on whats going on etc so for now enjoy

The grill clipped right in the only reason it doesnt on your 32 cause you have late model head lights and for some straight reason they dont have the clips like on the projector head lights, the only ones that do have the clip in non projector style are the N1 headlights.

Yeah im looking forward to puttin in the RB25, it will be alot better than a crappy old RB20 haha

It could need alot of things, but ill just get the rears slightly pumped to accomodate my new 245's on the rear.

With the rims i got on there now they measure 17x9 +38, they just stick out of the rears and with a 30mm bolt on spacer up front they fill the GTR gaurds perfect.

Cheers mate!

Everything is genuine GTR, the Gaurds, Grill, Bonnet, Indicators and Front bar are all genuine items. I also got NISMO Side Skirts and Rear Pods aswel same as what Salad has on his R32 Sedan.

Haha cheers Nick!

Okay so i nearly forgotten about this thread and car... I didnt end up going the RB25 conversion... I went a differnet path as I personally wanted to do something different so Ive gone and done an SR20 conversion. When it first started it looked like this,

P5270028.jpg

Then i decided i didnt want to run the intercooler in the engine bay etc so i have removed it, and also sold that China Radiator. So thanks to Darren Appleton i now have a Greddy Plenum and 100mm thick GTR cooler both off 180GO as its no longer SR powered for the 32. Also got a change of wheels and i got 6 WORK CR KAI's, just need a pair of 18x9.5 +12's for the rear and im pretty much set in that department. Here is a pick of the front, GTR front gaurds, WORK CR KAI's 17x9 +17 and 30mm bolt on spacers,

So about 6 months pass buy i havent touched the car since i dropped the new heart in pretty much due to work and family commitments ive been stock piling parts ready to go on

HKS 2530

HKS Step One Cams, 256/264

P7150182.jpg

6 Boost Manifold

There are a few little things i have left out but ill cover them when i got some more spare time and remember to take pictures etc, So thats about it as of today i picked up my Adaptronic ECU and Coils and got 550cc NISMO Injectors on the way also, So starting day comes a little closer but still alot of work to do...

Hoping after the new year to have ecu wired in and everything else put back together, and also hopefully buy the end of next week I should have this in my hands :spank:

The Boot Spoiler was $275 Delivered and I got it yesterday and it fits like a glove! As for wiring it will be an easy task for my mate to do, There will be a bit of relocating of things around to tidy up the engine bay a little bit more, Battery to the boot and wire in my full set of Apexi EL2 Gauges.

Next is Fuel System and wiring... wont be long now :O

      Walbro 460 in r32 gtr

      You got your answer when everything was OK after disconnecting your return line from the FPR. Why in the world are you running a 460, 2200CC injectors, etc. on stock 8mm lines?  Keep the pump, ditch the lines. I used both 8mm lines as my feed and one of my Hicas 10mm lines as return.

      Also to note, in the Subaru world, Whiteline endlinks have been reported to break... often. So going Hardrace or GKTech would be my option.

      Walbro 460 in r32 gtr

      By portaz · Posted

      Hi all. I had to chamge fuel pump due to car sitting for 10.years and went the 460. From memory it had the slightly smaller walbro in it previously. Running bosch 2200 injectors and a turbosmart compact fpr. Problem is no2 I can't get base pressure below 70psi. If I disconnect return line from fpr pressure drops indication restriction. I've inspected.the fuel line and removed the pipe on return line in tank and no chamge. Surely I'm not the only o e using stockings on a 460? Could the fpr be too small to handle the flow of new pump ? I'd like to sort it rather than going back.to smaller pump.
