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.

    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
