Yeah, mean put stock restrictor back in.

The oil cooler i have is a TRUST GREX unit.

And most importantly - no sorry no larger pics.

Will find one though :-)

Ok,

So how much boost does the R32 GTR N1 run with the restrictor in and how much does it run with the restrictor out?

All I know the R34 GTR N1's ran 1.2 Bar (17 PSI) from factory with restrictor in.

Are we talking similar readings with the R32 GTR N1's?

I assume you put it back in to preserve what it is..?

Please do find LARGER PIC of GTR butt cheek. :laugh:

Sorry no idea about the boost without restrictor.

I've only had the car dyno'd with an old HKS boost controller which was switched off and not working. It made 10psi and held it.

as for the blank plate instead of radio controlls, only the N1's and NISMO versions had them.

Wouldn't worry about trying to make one though, as Nissan Japan have them in stock.

Cheers

Yeah cool!

Ah yeah that's right, N1's had no radio, so no radio controls LOL!

Keep it and enjoy it, sounds like a nice unit. If you want to send something back to make money send a 240/260Z. They are nuts for them.

I think there is real interest at the moment for stockers, maybe there is some older money coming out.

Collectable 32s would be the N1's. Anything in dark blue. ADM's. Some of the crazy ones like the evolutions (theres one on here somewhere) and limited versions and to a lesser extent the Vspec2's.

FYI, there are 2 adms for sale. Both black. One has mods (silly boy) for $40k and the other is a stocker, very clean for $65k. Not a patch on their original asking price but still a very desirable car.

I have had an aussie delivered GTR for 7 years now. It only has 134,000km but I have been modding it as things wear out. So far suspension brakes, computer, boost controller, injectors and exhaust. They do need wider wheels so changed those as well. Have all original parts except injectors.

About to replace turbos as I don't want the ceramic ones to crap themselves one day (which is bound to happen given it is a 19 yo car).

Whilst non modded aussie delivered GTR's are probably prefferred, it would be hard to maintain with factory turbos, suspension etc.

P.S. Your burgundy one looks nice!

Brendan,

Your's is the ex Apexi (i think) drag car, correct?

Its very possible that they used an N1 as the base of the car. I'm purely guessing due to your wiper comment and from your pic i can see it has the N1 lights.

Can you check/remember if the last two letters in your Chassis # are "ZN" or "ZY"?

Thanks man. I was very lucky only having to replace the wheels for stockers when I bought mine. It has 95k with books, original sales slip and the leather GT-R owners folder and manual. If you are replacing items in preventative terms I would hang onto the originals. I think these cars are going to be worth a bomb in the years to come. How much did you pick yours up for? PM if you like.

This topic seems right up my alley. As most of you, i love R32 GT-Rs.

My vision of the ideal R32 GT-R would be:

- extremely clean

- replacement of various parts with new factory/nismo items (carpet, trim pieces etc)

- NISMO LMGT4's (or possibly TE's)

- adjustable coils

- new clutch

- N1 body styling

obviously a few aftermarket goodies and such..

but that would be my ideal 32

So a full NISMO body kit with a set of LMGT 4's / TE 37's.

Yeah, same here.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.

I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.

      Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
