hi all, few months ago i purchaced a clean as r32 gtr v-spec 93 model. It came with 18 inch bbs wheels, usual brembos :rofl:, thicker strut braces, full exhaust from front pipe back, and awesome Aragosta coilovers :) :).

So far all iv done is replace the spark plugs, all bushes are new and compression check the motor which came up all really close, and remove the boost restrictor which suprisingly made a nice difference :) Next mod im getting is some dba motorsport slotted disks and project mu pads, then some front camber arms:)

At the moment im looking at getting a new frontpipe and some aftermarket split dump pipes while im in there. Was wondering if anyone knows of a brand of front pipe which sits relatively high under the chassis and doesnt cost a fortune?? Not after titanium as its way to $$$. The front pipe i have at the moment sits a bit on the illigal side and im not after anymore defects.

Im also chasing some nismo LMGT1, LMGT2, LMGT4 or BBS-lm wheels as id love to be running a set of any of these in 18x10 but they seem real difficult to come across a decent set in gtr size.

Also wondering if anyone knows what benifits if any are to be had by getting a stainless steel exhaust manifold on the standard turbos.

heres a pic to show which i dont wanna have to wind those coilovers up despite the exhaust being 7 cm of the ground :P

Brand new Nismo LM GT4 in Bronze. 18 x 10.5" +15. $4400.

Not the exact size you want but Aaron has more wheels in stock.

No point in changing the exhaust manifold if you are running stock turbos.

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
