Yeah agreed, this would be VERY cool. A sleeper EVO 3 of sorts!

But one flaw, this guy wants to do exactly the OPPOSITE to what you've outlined here...

He's downgrading!

NAR mate this is not an evo 3 sleeper, it looks so RICED up its not even funny- but tough. Orginally it was a glxi (bog stock lancer) now wide body with 265 in all 4 corners, screamer pipes, 3.5inch exhaust and hauls ass hard! He recent put a custom ecu from usa so he can make the tune himself. He is thinking about running e85 so can run 20psi plus of boost, jet on wheels lol

Yes he is upgrading not down grading too but i mean we all had that crazy idea that we wanted to do! I would strongly advise, speak to someone at least 25 that is still into car obviously and see what they have to say. Don't ask a 17yo hektik (stero type, please no further jokes about that word, we all get the picture) as they got on idea! Most of the ppl on hear have been through wat you are going through- Remember that advise is FREE :thumbsup: easier to ask for it than go to work and blow all this cash

If you allready have an NA R32... Then bolt up or all the GTR parts you can to it and be happy with what you've got.

Leave the GTR in a shed and start building it up untill you get off your P's...

OR

Move to Tassie... No P plate- turbo laws.

OR

Leave you GTR in Tassie and drive it there (in the school holidays) ha ha ha...

why would i spend all the money on th gts to make it look like a gtr and it's not worth shit, and i dont see any gts4 non turbos... i don't give a shit about the car being plated as a turbo so what its plated as a turbo but at the end of the day its only a non turbo gts powered car that has the stopping of a gtr,

say if you had a vk plated as a v8 with a six they wont touch you...

say you had a mazda rx3 but you put a piston in it they still wont touch you...

my mate has a r33 gtst but has a rb25de in it they dont touch him cos it dosen't have the power of what the plate says...

Hahaha and what do you think your GTR is going to be worth after you retrograde it to be "supposedly" P plater legal? Honestly, you're better off just driving the GTR illegally on your P's, it's just as illegal and costs you less money to do. And that's a BAD idea. You seem to be fairly under-researched in terms of Victorian road laws...I recommend having a good hard read of the relevant legislation on the Vicroads website. Leave your emotions at the door because the whole reason you want to do this is nothing short of emotional. So here's some logic to combat said emotions: The heart of a GTR is an RB26DETT and all wheel drive. You take that away from the car and the only people who will consider it a GTR are the last people you want to consider it so, i.e. the law. You'd be no better than a GTR badged GTS.

There's no non-patronising way to say it, so forgive the tone of my sentiments but what you are planning to do really is ridiculous as almost every post in this thread has pointed out. It's not like you have divided opinion where there's a chance it could be a good idea.

so what im stubborn or i know what i want.. i spend 2k on a decent daily and have another rego to pay or i spend 2k on a car i want and have it on the road, damages arn't that bad they call it a agreed value.. and i work in a panel shop anyways im here for help to build this not to have other change what i want :D

Listen to the people here who have lived life before you...it will save you alot of hard lesson learning, for experience whilst often the best teacher is almost always the harshest teacher - she gives the test first and the lesson afterwards.

haha what a joke, you have already been told and flamed enough so I wont bother giving my advice.

on the other hand autech has already done this (as mentioned above) but they didnt molester a gtr in the first place, if you find one of these it will fit the bill legally.....good luck though, last time I saw one for sale was at R31 House last year.

Do Autech have something against turbos or an affinity for naturally aspirated? The Autech S15 was also non-turbo.

wouldnt need e85 to run 20psi

i run that daily in my evo as do many others on 98

Yes they are, the other is a OS Giken twin cam head for a L-series. L-series were all SOH from factory.

Just to add - L series engines were not cross flow designs too :P

That OS giken head would be horn.

OMG I WANT TO CRY!! cant believe you would dare hurt a masterpiece. I am a R32 GTR owner and im sad because its getting fixed and i havent driven it for a week. please PLEASEEE sell the car and buy a rb25 R33. i waited till i turned 21 just to buy it. the wait is well worth it

Ok,

My suggestions are as follows since learning doesn't seem to be a part of your stunning repertoire:

1. Use 400 dollars and buy some crack, at least you will be happy when old granny's in civic gli's are frantically raping their horns to get you out of their way

2. Buy a Donkey, ram your exhaust pipe into the rear end, and watch it race your NA GTR, it would make a hell of a lot louder noise too. priceless!

3. Give me the money, I would like the entire Nagisa Auto catalogue for my GTR, pretty please?

4. Invest in zimbabwe, your money would double up within a week in their currency which would then become less than an 8 pack of toilet paper rolls in Australia

5. Strip naked in front of a mental institute and do a lil dance, they'll take you in and give you some happy shots. Similar to number 1 and it's free!!

6. Similar to number 5, strip naked with a group of people boosted by the power of viagra of which are all too eager to bat for the other team. They'll do you like the granny's in their civic gli's

7. I can't think of anything else but I think you are a natural comedian, I'll give you my recyclable bottles to watch you perform your NA conversion, and do all of the above.

8. Cut your balls off! Then if you ever get lucky with someone of equal intellectual capacity, stitch them back on and be a super cool limp dck. She would be so impressed that she might even kick it to see what happens.

So, are you sure you really want to go down this path?

    • 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.
    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.
