thinking of getting rid of those shithouse empire aero front fenders and replacing with GTR fenders.

What was your plan / goal for the R32 anyway?

Atm it's just a cop of a thing, so I figured you wanted to drift it...

current 1/4 in real car simulator is 10.571 with BCNR33 with race tune

now to try BNR32 and BNR34 to see wghich is quicker

LOL!

Need For Speed Underground 2 was good for a laugh for 'real car simulator' when you went to the dyno tuning area.

every car would run a 10 sec pass (if not lower) on full race tune.

started off as daily cos I had the s14 for track... but then i took the ceffy off my dad after the accident and rebuilt it, so that became the daily and the 32 was supposed to be my balls out weekender... but then i moved to brissy and it lived in my garage for a year untouched... and then when i got back i decided to buy the camaro... so the idea is to sell the 32 and the ceffy, keep the s14 for track, camaro for weekend and buy a golf for daily.

so now i have a 32, ceffy and s14 in the garage, and I drive my mate's maxima to work cos its more fuel efficient than the others and has aircon n a decent stereo.

think i'm just gettin old.

Damn! So you got a Track / Daily / Weekend car

The R32 had potential for sure... How much you wanna sell it for?

You drifting the S14?

dunno how much i'd sell it for... probably 8k with all the mods.

altho atm i'm liking the idea of fixing it up and driving it, cos I just renewed rego for another 12 months last week.

s14 hasn't seen a track for over a year n a bit, but before that, yeah.

Sitting here waiting for the final coat of paint on my front bar to dry before I go out and attempt to add the finisher.

First time I've ever done anything like this, amateur DIY paint jobs for the win!

Ah yeah... + all that Hellaflush we'd being talking over the last week, it'd be good to see the R32 in a tuff stance!

Sell Cefie, R32 Daily / Camero Weekender / S14 Track..?

Or you'd still rather the Maxima for Daily?

I'm actually thinking golf diesel with a boser facelift and good fitment for daily...

like so:

6L per 100km, a car made in the 2000's instead of an almost 20 year old shitbox, etc etc.

not really worried about defects n cop attention, so meh.

boser front for mk4 is where its at... combine it with good fitment and simple kit slammed low and it just works wonders. simple but awesome.

I work in Camberwell.

^^ That bonnet / head lights like mean as!

Looks pretty sic actually.

that's called the "boser" look. you can actually buy a piece of preformed metal that lines up with the factory bonnet, weld it on and repaint it, and you end up with a factory looking bonnet in all metal like it was meant to be there.

headlights are made by Hella, who make the factory headlights, so they fit 100% as well, cos they might as well be genuine.

euro modification market is centuries ahead of japanese fibreglass shit.

lol almost feel like doing a boser R32 skyline using a GTS bonnet :down:

    • 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. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
