yeah ive heard from a few people that the 32's are quicker as non turbos and yes i am leaning toward them being a better looking car.

can anyone tell me whats gonna happen to their value with the new import laws?

yeh no worries man, since I took that picture the car has received a re-spray (it had a few shipping scratches here and there) and now has a GTR bonnet.

Also it has the stock exhaust which in about 2 hours of writing this will change to a full 3" 5Zigen system ;)

To be honest, i think whoever told you the R32 GTS is a quicker car is full of poop..

I've been in an R33 GTS, and while not lightening quick, not too bad - what you'd expect for a 2.5L and enuff to take your average V6 out there.

They have 142kw which isn't too bad, compared to a low 116kw for the R32 GTS... I mean 116kw is very close to what a local R31 puts out. Also the RB25DE has a fair bit more torque.

      Hard to say, just pop the rocker covers off and have a look if you think it's cammed. You probably need to replace the valve cover gasket/half moons anyways.

      From my youth: GTi-R clutch change is a massive pain. The gearboxes are fragile? But the car is super cool and I want one 😢

      Driveline vibration is resolved. I ended up loosening all my engine mount and trans mount bolts, giving it a good shake then retightening everything and it's gone... Let's just say I was surprised that fixed it.  I've been happily driving it around again but unfortunately put zero time into my direct port/constant pressure WMI setup. I'm on vacation next week, so I'll try and finalize it then.  On a different note, I spent all week fuel/ignition mapping 2x 216L V16 engines. Turbo's were burning glycol and we swapped them out for larger units. We also had planned emissions testing on site, so I figured I'd be there the same week to use their instrumentation and massage any emissions issues out if needed. This was a first for me. Fuel management is similar in certain ways to automotive (i.e air density as load variable) but very different in others. It's all PLC based and AFR's are controlled by air and not fuel. They use a control valve between the turbo and air manifold to control pressure which in turn controls AFR's. Due to this, target AFR tables supplied by the OEM are in pressures and not mass which really through me off. They use air pressure vs fuel pressure tables. I also relied on an O2 concentration sensor the emissions team had in the exhaust. Ignition timing was also all over the place and we were losing a fair bit of power. They're now happily sitting at 16-40BTDC depending on load. We were making about 1600kw at 900rpm at 90% load. Engines were running a lot smoother as well.
