I have good days and bad days but I am on the road to recovery. I put R33 GTR seats in the GTS-T when I first hurt my back and they do make a big difference. The GTR is a V-Spec and she does ride reasonably hard.

wow, after reading everything here, i can relate to it so close. I make the PTSHH sounds diving around. I miss the power, I miss pulling up at lights, I miss going to parties, ah god its all too much....

Withrawals are getting pretty bad now. At least its a good feeling knowing your line is coming back with probs 200 more pony's to play with, and a couple of more gizmoes!

Its good to know im not the only person who thinks of there car in the same way lol.

I have my 32 GT-R sitting at my friend house coz i have no space at home for it. And the worse thing bout it that i'm still trying to get my license,

i've only driven it 4 times on my L's.

On a positive note, at least it's not depreciating like most other cars :D

It'll have been exactly 6 months since my accident (big rear-ender into my car) Wednesday next week. I still haven't gotten the car back, but it's getting close.

I've been driving my little N14 SSS daily since, but it's not quite the same with 80fwkw compared to the ol' 183rwkw R34 GTT.

In the meantime I've been gathering various parts - oil cooler, bigger radiator, swaybars, various nismo parts (speedo cluster, short-shifter, wheel nuts), etc. Gotta do something whilst I wait for it come back to keep my skyline-love alive.

6 months (April) since the Rb25 popped ringlands in my stagea, been off road & vehicle-less pretty much since. Ready for pickup end next week apparently. Looking forward to running in the new forgie & getting it back for her power tune.

Fatz - that sounds about right - we have four Skylines and that way there is always at least one or two going while the other ones are undergoing a build phase or upgrades or repairs.

Problem solved :banana:

      R32 only blows hot air

      By Duncan · Posted

      Not really, but the heater box is pretty simple mechanically....if the door is one way the air bypasses the heater core and if it is the other way it goes through it for warm air.  If you are sure the actuator you moved manually is for the heater mix (there would also be one for output air direction) then I'd take the heater box out and see what is happening (you'll have to regass and re-coolant the systems afterwards) BTW pp724 onwards from the GTR workshop manual cover the system in good detail, it is probably worth checking. I think the IAT sensor might be a problem electrically for getting cold (if you got 24 error code not -24 it thinks the incoming air is -50c) and it covers how to test the sensor (although most likely it is either not plugged in or a wire is damaged)

      Leaking Rear Subframe Bushing?

      Use the GKTech subframe bush and bring your subframe 10mm closer to the chassis. You'll need to fix an exhaust hanger to suit. One of the best mods I've done.

      Wires cut underneath shifter cover

      By Duncan · Posted

      You'd really have to pull it apart further to know, it least you can be confident that the one heading to the back is not connected any more. There was once a ground on the shifter seal mount too, your head unit issue could be that simple

      Perfect, I'll get to it this winter then at the same time as I weld on my anti squat kit.

      R32 only blows hot air

      By SeanR32GtSt · Posted

      Alright so my 32 only has one temperature no matter what degree you set it to. I’ve tried disconnecting the servo motor arm and moving it either direction and got no change. I’ve fixed the leak in my AC and re charged it and with it on and clutch engaged it still blows hot even though the low pressure pipe going to the firewall is ice cold. Both heater core hoses are hot while running as well. Diagnostic code showed 24 for intake air temperature sensor. Anybody got any ideas?
