i own a R32 Nismo Edition, #219 its been resprayed midnight blue by the owner before me, but other than that inside and outside is all factory.... besides minor engine mods.

if you need any pics of special bits of the nismo 32 or lil things here and there, let me no mate. i can give you a hand going off my car.

nice to see another one geting built, this is the first ive seen bar mine.

my VIN is BNR100219 the 100 = NISMO

: D

Hey mate that's funny you say your car has been painted blue it must have been the thing to do to Nismo GTR's. I seen one for sale on yahoo a while back been painted bayside blue like mine has. Mine will be going back to gunmetal grey.

I'm happy to see any pics interior exterior dash engine bay it's always good to have something to work off if I get stuck.

My email is: [email protected]

same vin apart from 32 at the end.

I didn't realize anything of the car till I had it on the trailer heading home stopped at the shops and I had a another walk around it and thought something was up. It had no abs and no brake lines for the abs so it just hadn't been pulled off then I looked at the rear window no wiper then noticed soneone had put speakers ontop of the parcel shelf. So I thought I might so some digging on it.

Turns out to be #32. I brought it to turn into a full on track car but with only 560 built it will be worth something one day even with the engine mods it will have the engine bay will look stock

yer thats the same reason i brought mine, i only drive it maybe 1 once amonth, its just sits in the gargage under covers... haha if i was ever to paint it, it would also be goin back to gun grey, but in saying that the paint job it has atm is 100%. its a real good job.

Let me no if theres anything you need and ill send em asap.

cheers

That's funny hey same reason for buying it. I couldn't strip it out and turn it into an all out track car. I wish I got to drive mine once a month waiting for the $$$ to come better again to order the parts. If the paint it good then leave it till you want to put it back to orginal.

Will do mate any pics at all would be great

I know the feeling... I want to get sometime to work on my car. THe problem I run into is when I have time the car is at a shop, when I dont have time its in the garage...

Are you liking the NISTUNE? Gave the result and reliability your after? I am considering this is the way to go for me soon...

Yeah mate I know how you feel especially when the car sits there in front of me while I'm working on other things. But we have to earn cash to spend on these beasts.

Love nistune best ecu going around for street Nissan's even budget track cars does more than enough by far the top ecu for bang for buck.

All those Nissan ecu's people used to ditch and sell cheap not the case now when they can be turned into the same thing a power fc is.

I highly recomend them

Awesome... I am definately looking into it... My engine and box will be coming out in the next couple of months to do a turbo swap amongst other things so will need an ecu after i'm done...

Nice build!

Nice as mate what turbo's do you plan to use?? I do a stock gtr turbo rebuilt kit to steel wheel and 360 deg bearings brings them up to 500hp same as r34 gtr n1 turbos but they are ball bearing. I do them change over 1300. I'm using them on a clients rb26 in a gtst.

Thanks mate gone through many stages and ideas on how to build it and I think it will be a clean stock looking gtr with enough power to boot at 25psi

LOL! I think I bought a kit from you off ebay! I can rebuild them without any hassles and get them balanced locally... I'll let you know how it goes... I truly like reading your build...

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
