My understanding is that there was a very late model R32 GTS which had an rb25de (not an rb25det)...so it's probably not useful.

I thought this could be the case. I'm having trouble interpreting some of the regulations for Targa

Am I correct in thinking the engine fitted to the car needs to be the engine as stated on the compliance plate? And no exceptions?

Thanks again.

You have to run what was in the original spec sheet or homoigation papers. You could convert a pov pack 2 door R32 into a gts-t if you wanted.

So RB20DET is the only option for R32 Gts-t

Thanks for clearing that up for me.

I was asking because I already have an RB25DET engine/gearbox and clutch combo that I bought for another car
It would have been easy to just bolt it into the R32, it already has turbo, ecu, injectors, afm and a tune.

Thanks again, back to researching!

Well fellas,

not sure if you are interested as it has the wrong badge on it, but am finally making some progress with the chook cooker. Some pics below if interested. Basically have finished the engineering of the equal length 4 link rear with coilover conversion. Now its off to get caged.

We are ready just in time. Finally finished working on the new fuel system after a bad batch of fuel hose meant I had to take it apart 3 times after much swearing and frustration. Car goes on the dyno tomorrow for one last check. Dad and I recced the course in a hire car three weeks ago so it's all still rather fresh in my memory.

Can't wait to see how the new suspension setup handles the Tas roads :)

We had the unofficial launch for Launceston residents last night at Levee Food Co.

Looking Good Ben! Good Luck at Targa Next week! Hope you get a Plate! :woot:

Wish I was there but the Evo 6 is still not fixed. Would of been a good year for Spada & me too in early modern as there seem not as many contenders going this year

    • The attached document is fine. I just downloaded & opened it.
    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
