Well i finally went out and bought a 32 for my gf (she's always wanted one) , its pretty much stock except for a 3in exh fmic and bn body kit (painted yellow , i'm not real sure which way to go with this car yet (suggestions welcome) , i have 2 choices , either leave the kit on it and bolt a set of 20" on it or sell the kit off and put a gtr front with std side skirts and rear pods (if i can ever find them) and find some 33 gtr rims (or something similar) and paint it morpheous (new holden purple/pink) . inside is like new so all i'll be ading is stereo equipment (which i already have lol) consisting of a pair of alpine type s splits at the front some 6" alpine rear fill and a 15" jl audio sub in a custom enclosure. suspension is what has me stuck atm , i'm looking for a comprimise between stock feel (i love the way it drives) and good road handling , atm its great on the open roads but is too soft for the kit and scrapes on everything (speed humps etc) and doesn't like tight cornering. anyways , heres a pic , i'll have a few more by the end of the w/e

these are rare japanese rims forgot the name, stick the rears on the front and get a deeper pair for the rears

haha nah , i'll give them a miss , i was thinking gt-c's with gtr front bar std skirts bla bla

Definitely go the Purple + GTR front + R33 GTR Rims. That would be one nice 4dr!!

Good to see the girls reppin the skylines too :D

chers mate , its one of those colours you kinda hate and like :D , its ok but not my choice of colours , anyways , update: scored a rb25 gearbox conversion for stupid cheap so it should be manual by the end of easter :P;) , decided i'm selling the bn kit , gunna find vertex side skirst/rear bar and whack a gtr front bar on it , i'm actually tempted to widebody it via cutting some 2 door rear overfenders up, whack a cf bonnet on to break up the colour up a lil and leave it yellah? must get low first! std height ftl

yeah i checked your car out (very very nice btw) , it hasn't quite sold it for me though tbh , would have to see it in the flesh i reckon , i'm going to do all the guards etc before ordering wheels this time (i'm a spraypainter/panel beater by trade) i can cut and add metal in or just add fiberglass panel it's not a real big job for me :banana: . I also scored all std bars and am about to paint them up so i can rego it , i have a l/h std sideskirt and i'm cutting up a pair of 2 door skirts to make the rh side(can add pics and 'how to' if anyone is interested? ) also scored a set of gearclimb (kyb) shocks with apex'i springs to lower it somewhere closer to the ground, some cradle lock bushes and castor rods (i'm tempted to put r33 front lca's in too since i have one laying about) . still havent got the 'box in yet because i'm having trouble with the auto spigot :mad: , also decided to put my spare rb25 turbo on it for a laugh and shim the diff a lil :ninja: oh and it's got std r32 non projector lights (n1 i s'pose you could say) and i'm on the hunt for some fully clear type indicators. i decided on the colour too :) it's purple of the latest ve and its called morpheous :)

Heheh I just went out and bought another R32 4-door for my GF too :D, can one have too many R32 4-doors? I'll chuck a seperate thread up about it. You aren't in Melbourne I take it, otherwise i'd love to meet up sometime. I also have a spare pair of fibreglass guards sitting at my panel beater gathering dust (I think he's about ready to neck me for taking so long to clean my shiz up :P), can't remember what brand they are but they weren't cheap. N1s and the non projectors are different lights but they look very similar most obvious difference is the lack of grill mounts. I have a left hand clear indicator too :). I like the new VE purple a lot :(, dooo eeeet.

    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
