  • 2 weeks later...

freshly rebuilt steel turbo's, tein suspension, 300kmph tomei dash

new battery, boost controller, fmic, fuel pump, 3" exhaust, tinted windows

getting the money together tomorrow, flying out Tuesday morning to pickup & drive back.

:):geek:

got to sell the bike as it's a straight swap in a sense; cant ride it because of my knees, so I will never ride again unfortunately

also got to sell my wife's 29000km old car. both cheap. PM me for details or click signature link below.

Cant believe Ive bought an r32 sedan with rb26dett !?! instead of owning the zx9r which I cant ride comfortably anyways (knees)

this baby-GTR will be my hills & trackday beast

The main question remains, with or without attessa?

-D

Congrats Tangles. :) I hope it gives you many years of fun filled, smile inducing motoring without any mechanical problems. Pity the bike has to go but if you can't ride it no use just having it sitting there.

Haha! That's going to struggle for traction big time! Good luck!

agreed - i'd rate a gts-4 above a gt-t with a 26, simply cause of the 4wd ;\ the 4wd is what makes the gtr special

however its a very nice car tangles and i hope u have fun driving it back ;D hope your knees hold out, mine start feeling sore after a long drive

-D

at a guess, by looking at the engine bay its RWD.

hahaha i know your guessing but from that pic how can you see the axels that go through the engine sump :) really up high there is no difference from gts4 to gtst

^^^that's the fun part! rwd is awsome fun!

also, hope ID inspection goes well for you once its back here if its not in this state :(

he can put an attessa switch in instant rwd without dropping a shaft

he can put an attessa switch in instant rwd without dropping a shaft

yeah but once u turn the attessa off you cant renable it unless u get a constant voltage attessa controller like the HKS one, it changes the signal voltage relative to the setting, rather than just cutting the circuit all together

costs around $500 fyi

GTS4/GTR have an extra green fuse over in that fuse box that you can see in that pic, im not sure how many green fuses i have.

    • New CAS just turned up from NZ Wiring. Looks like a nice bit of gear.  So, yeah. Triggered, bro. Realised I may as well do the cam belt while mucking about with it so will order one of them.
    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.
