One of the nicest and cleanest R32 GTR's I have seen.

Have fun keeping them clean :)

Is that the rare dark blue Nissan R32 colour also?

lol yer i put the wheels on took that pic, went for a run up the street and back, wiped the wheels over and put it back in the garage and the covers back on. they gunna b a bitch to keep clean.

yea it is a Nissan Colour apperently its the rarest colour for the r32 gtr it was the lowest number of them painted that colour.

But its not orginal it was respray that colour for that very reason above just before i brought it 12-13months ago. they did a real good job on the paint work, its perfect as far as i can see.

hey all,

after 3months of waiting i finaly got my new wheels and tyres straped on my R, i think it looks Fricking AWSOME!!! haha jsut cant drive it anywhere or they will get dirty. Lucky its a weekend warrior

wheels= Work XD9 18x10

tyres= fed RSR

Looks fantastic mate :P What size tyres are they? Look like theres a bit of stretch on em.

Believe the offset will be +18

lol yer i missed out on the brembo's which will most likly be my next mod.

Stunning car Dean. Gotta be one of my faves.

Don't rush out for the Brembo's. If its for looks, go for it. If its for stopping at the track, there's really not that much difference compared to a well set up stock Nissan calliper.

Had the Brembo's on my N1 at the front (its an early N1 so came out with stock Nissan callipers) fitted by the previous owner. Got rid of them as went back to stock, and replaced with rebuilt Nissan callipers, new fluid, pads, rotors and the stopping is awesome.

I am guessing +18 offset, these are the exact wheels ive been enquiring about.. can the owner confirm these are +18?

Also, these arnt running any spacers are they?

Also intersted in the tyres your running?

Also wondering if anyone knows about these wheels and their brake clearances. I am going to fit these to my r32 GTR as well.. and one day plan to do a big brake upgrade. Just like you guys are talking about i guess.. Wondering if anyone knows how large one could go brake wise with these wheels?

Oh, and these do look awesome. Tough looking ride man. Cheers for any info.

They are +18, no spacers.

Would like to know tyre size aswell, looks like there's a bit of stretch going on. 255s maybe?

I don't think they're too good for fitting big brakes behind. I don't have much clearance over the standard calipers. I've never been able to find what the disc type of the wheel is though.

nice rims, what offset?

thanks mate, they +18

Hey Deano1, absolutely love that colour and wheels complete it perfectly

as Jamie said before mine is quite similar, this is the only pic I have of it really with xd9s on it

Nah its more for the track man, the wheels are pritty out there, but my car is drivin on the street but im basicly building it for trackdays. i mite go some r34 Brembos they seem to be goin for a decent price.... in saying that i didnt find the limit of my standard ones at the last Eastern Creek day i did. but i was running shitty street tyres... next time will be diffrent

Nah mate no spacers, screw that you dont spend 2.2k on wheels and than have to run spacers. theres plenty of wheels to fit the r32 gtr you just mite need to do gaurd mods and strechies

white is gay they will soon look like a road grime mess .

cars the weekend car mate.... wheels get wiped down before and after each drive.... i dont drive it in the rain or one dirt roads or anything stupid..... I dont plan on selling it ever... it will just sit in my garage under its covers. They diff wont loook like road grime mess... ever....

    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
