I recently started gathering parts to build a rb22 hybrid engine for my R32 GTST...but circumstances have changed and that project is now dead...but it ain't all bad...because i have seen the light...or perhaps moved over to the dark side (depending on your point of view)...gone is my 237rwkw R32 GTST and in its place now is a 3L straight 6 twin turbo brute...

A deal too good to pass up came along and I went for it...the car is still stockish at the moment with and exhaust and safc...it also came with 272 degree cams...other goodies include the factory big brake kit and factory bilsteins...which is a bonus...i'm guessing it makes around 200rwkw at the moment at about 12psi...but it will make alot more when i'm done with it...

Therefore...i will soon have a blown rb20det to give away along with other bits for the rb22 build...stay posted...cheers...

Its got a getrag in there...so i think that answers the auto or manual question...

I don't like the wing as well...but it leaves some really ugly holes if you take it off...so that might take awhile to sort out...at least i know that the toyota engineers have actually designed it to provide proper downforce...

I don't mind it as well but it does look better without the wing...

After throwing it around a few corners yesterday i must say that its very balanced and planted...and while its not exactly light its more nimble than you might think...the chassis is great...oh what a feeling...lolz!!!

personally not a fan of supra's.. big fan of the 2jz!!! gotta throw it in something better... PLEASE!!!

Whats a better chassis to throw it into? just out of curiousity...find me a chassis that can hold a constant load of almost 1g back in its day...

    • Dang I looked at this for so long until I realised it was for the inner rod. I was so confused. This looks like a great tool. Another injected plastic box for my collection. I for one am a torquer. I'm far too anxious and neurotic to not use the correct torques whenever I can. I do honestly feel like my wheels will fall off if I dont.
    • Not sure if you're being serious? I, and all the car people i know, ALWAYS use a torque wrench for wheel nuts. I assumed any car person, apart from tyre centre monkeys with rattle gun in hand, would do it properly.  Anyway, no further reply from me on this unless legit discussion from OP or his query so, over to you, knock yerself out.
    • I was wondering about this. I'll do some research.
    • Why not? Since mines been built, I've used low boost maybe 5 times.
    • Yeah, so widen your search to any Nissan speedo first, then go wider if needed. I will say though, that there is a better than even chance that what I said first will likely come into play. They quite possibly won't come apart without damage. I tried to disassemble a stepper gauge that I wanted to repair. There was no way that needle was coming off the spindle, and I could not see how the spindle would come out of the mechanism behind. Assembled once, never to be disassembled, was my conclusion. Could be the same on the R34 cluster. Failing that - take the cluster to a workshop that specialises in automotive instrument work. There's usually at least one in every Australian city. They'll either be able to do it for you for small cost, or tell you it can't be done. It might be that "it can't be done" unless you follow some arcane procedure, including trickiness to glue it back together or something, that only experienced techs know.
