Hi all,

well ive had her now for a bit over a week, and ive finally got around to taking some happy snaps. so here you go

Quick run down on the car,

1990 R32 GTR

Twin N1 turbos (1.3 bar), Apexi power FC, Greddy Profec Boost controller, ARC intercooler, Nismo fuel pump and reg, Cam gears, Apexi filters, Trust exhaust, Tein Super Street coil overs, Cusco front and rear strut braces, P1 Buddy Club 17's.

I think that about it... But all this equates to about 280kw at all fours, and a truckload of fun!!! Cant wait for the first trackday!

Please feel free to comment...

P.S. Sorry for the poor quality pics, (moblie phone used...)

fantastically modified in tough black!

btw mate i would really put in an oil cooler before you take a track day on, if you watch this best motoring dvd called gtr: the prodigy, a stock r32 gtr goes out on the track and the oil temperature climbs very high by like the second lap so id hate to see anything bad happen to yours as its got significanty more power.

yeah ive actually got that dvd, thats what got me thinking about it.

if the oil temp can climb that quick in a stock gtr at tsukuba (prolli 10 degrees air temp or less), imagine what would happen to one with 280kw at a track day that might be 30 od degrees.

thanks mate.

The engine is still r32, with r34 covers.

brakes are standard, unfortunatley. but upgrade is on the way!

i would like to get my hands on a set of semi slicks for the track, but need to save my pennies for a while.

cheers.

    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
