JDM32 Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 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 Detachable Boss Kit Jap Rear Veiw Mirror GTR Passenger Seat 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 Jase...

JDM32 Posted November 8, 2007 Author Share Posted November 8, 2007 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 Jase...

JDM32 Posted November 8, 2007 Author Share Posted November 8, 2007 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! Jase...

CeJay Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Is that a proper gtr bar or a fibreglass one? Just wondering, since you have gtr guards. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/192746-jdm32/#findComment-3462758 Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDM32 Posted November 8, 2007 Author Share Posted November 8, 2007 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! Jase...

JDM32 Posted October 16, 2008 Author Share Posted October 16, 2008 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, 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 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...

Lock_to_lock Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Top work dude. I love it. How are you going to go with the wiring side of things? Will it be difficult?

JDM32 Posted December 19, 2008 Author Share Posted December 19, 2008 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 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/192746-jdm32/#findComment-4327784 Share on other sites More sharing options...
