Hey all,

I've kinda got to the point now where i've got to decide whether to keep modding my 32 gts-t or consider it finished. I think the car's potential was always limited (due to it's age and my budget).

When i got it the car had:

Apexi pod filter

Custom mild steel cat-back with Xforce cannon.

Unknown aftermarket shocks (pink in colour.. were on the car when imported apparently)

GTR Wing

GTR front bumper (missing lower lip)

Now the car also has:

Custom box and cold air intake

Greddy FMIC

Turbotech boost controller (set to 15psi)

R33 GTR Fuel pump

RB25 turbo

JustJap split dump pipe

Xforce HiFlow Cat

Greddy PE2 Catback (replaced droning Xforce)

Locked HICAS

18" DTM Wheels with Federal 595's

GTR Front lip (painted black to match car)

Midnight express tinting

MOMO Race steering wheel

nismo shift knob

6 speaker mp3 stereo

I've also ground and bogged a small amount of rust, and removed the aftermarket radio antenna the previous owner cut into the car :blink:

I've had the car almost a year now and i'm pretty happy how it's developed. Question is, what (if anything) do i still need to do to it?

I'm considering strut braces and maybe some slotted rotors... but not sure it's needed. It might be time to just start saving for a new beast. What do you all think?

dont waste time with a 25, if you want save for an R34 Gtt, or a 32 GTR, depends on your budget.

But it sounds like your happy with the car as is, im sure youd be happy to further mod it, but if your not craving it might aswell stop and save for bigger and better :P

No point in building a 30 unless you are already up for a rebuild. They are however, a LOT of fun in a 32gtst.

If you like the car and plan on keeping it, give it a much needed power upgrade, dropping a 25 in there is the smartest move :thumbsup:

drop the boost down to 12-13 psi, 15 is just blowing hot air?

at least get a safc2 then u will have a decent power upgrade

after that its pretty much done for stage 1

next step is turbo upgrade along with supporting mods or engine swaps

can sell it and for the price of a engine swap u can pick up a r33 (best bang for buck cars imo)

stronger box, phatter engine, modern interior

32 GTR or 34 GT-T pending budget is also very nice!

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • 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 🍻
