You bought it without knowing what mods its got? :Oops:

From the looks of it, after market FMIC, strut brace, custom airbox

other than that no idea

do GTRs have the battery in the engine bay?

hi  

i bought this car recently and it hasnt arrive from japan yet but i want to know what mods can you see and is there any problem so far just from the picture such as too old , somethng with wrong the setup or a mechnical failure etc

thanks

front mount??!?! what gives you that idea? :confused:

All I can see: ARC airbox, strut brace, HKS bovs, some japanese made twin-turbo pipe.

That's all you can tell from that photo.

And R32s had the battery in the engine bay.

thought that aftermarket pipe might have been intercooler, couldnt think of what else it would be

Ahhh :O Yeah, that pipe replaces the stock "twin turbo" labelled pipe that joins the output of the two turbos... The stock one has a very sharp angle joining the first turbo...

It might very well have an aftermarket front mount, but you can't tell from that photo.

Not sure about the condition... That is a very weird place to put the BOVs... An R32 owner might be able to tell you more about it's condition...

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
