Well...what do you expect?...It was built in 1992. But afterall, red does make it go faster :D

True... but then again, there are heaps of people on here who think the R32 looks tough and all that... I'll have to differ but respect their views... each to his own... and yeah, the red always been it goes faster... :)

hahah it's pretty interesting how badly the turbos dished it out in the touring car chamionships back before a V8 was considered a 'supercar' :down:

theres a good clip getting around about the R32 bastard car winning bathurst too.

Anyone know where you can buy the complete Bathurst races that the GTR's were in? I'd love to own them :)

I have them on my pc :happy:

There were links to download them on this forum a while ago..

Hi!

From JB Hi Fi, you can buy the 2006 Chevron Production of the 1991 & 1992 Bathurst 1000 races on dvd. It devotes 2 Hrs on each race = 4Hrs worth.

Highly recommended. The 1992 speech by Jim Richards is there too, calling the the Ford/Holden Rednecks a bunch of A********. Much publicity was made of the 100Kg penalty dished out to the GTRs and there's even plenty of footage of Oloffsen and Crompton who came 3rd in that race.

From JB Hi Fi or Ezydvd, you can also buy the 2003 Production of Nissan Skyline GT-R

Highly Recommended. Includes Dirk Shoisman's Fang around Nurburgring in the R34 as well the technical stuff by Andy Middlehurst in England

Lastly and still much better than all the HPI or Best Motoring dvds is the footage of Kurosawa's Fang around Nurburgring in the R33.

Very impressive dvd even though it's in Japanese. It shows the slight difference in characteristics between V-Spec and Non-V-Spec as well as performance figures of the R33. I don't know where you can get this one, because someone gave it to me; and I forget who it was.

All I can say is that whilst each dvd is dedicated to the R32, R33 or R34, you can't help but agree that each model is totally deserving of the title supercar.

PM me if you have any troubles.

Regards,

Terry

    • So for the wide band is a Bosch 4.9 correct for the Link G4+ along with a Can bus? Just get the Link gear or is generic ok too? Eg here: LINK LINK DIGITAL WIDEBAND CAN MODULE WITH BOSCH 4.9 SENSOR : KYP Performance House  
    • Bit difficult to follow. Have a look below and see what the standard R32 layout was like. Note there was a restrictor in place immediately before "turbocharged pressure control solenoid" that, if removed, magically got you 1 bar boost.
    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?
