I don't think I have seen a white R32 around how long have you had it? I go past the Soarer and Supra every morning as well I'm usally driving the Yellow Mazda with the really loud exhaust.

Good to hear you get your License back, I've heard that some brissy cops are up here teaching ours how to use the new DB meter, bit of a blitz going on.

I heard a little story a while ago that someone went to Rocky I think, to pick up there R32 GTR and on the way home it burst into flames. I'm not to sure what happened just heard the story, has anyone in Central Highlands heard this?

Hey Mega GTS-4... that thing sounds really cool...

are you happy with then end result or are you going to keep modifying the RB26...

I think it is a great way of getting a GTR... and because it is all it a GTS body everyone thinks it is just another skyline... little do they know...

The other good thing happening at the moment is the 88-89 R32 GTR's that are available from many importers cheap... particularly prestige motorsport or the likes... I was thinking that a cheap R32 that had a big list of mods would be really cool... even if it came over and the RB26 had some serious issues with blowby and the like... perfect time to build a RB30 bottom end... massive horsepower and a 4WD... I like the sound of that... maybe it is time to sell the old Q with Boost... although it has been a faithful rig and I would like to get it down to the 12's before reassigning it too light track duties... (I love the Clubsprint Meets at Ipswich)

anyway I hope you guys are all running at the 16th... and if not atleast come and say Hi...

Hi Rick, I've seen the Grey GTR a couple of times usually just putting around but I haven’t seen it for a while now.

The story I heard was supposably that the Sky that caught a light was only just bought.

No sorry I don't know peter tease and wazza, I get my fuel from Shell for both my cars, I think I'm a bit of a hermit.:)

Shawn.

that car that burst into flames was an R33. He was from Blackwater I believe. There is a pretty bombed R33 at blackwater too we had a look at it the other week it was in at Garths shop getting some work done on it. Appreantly it was one of the first R33 to be imported to australia (been here since 1995).

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
