New Toy-r32 Gtr With R33 N1 Eng & R34 N1 Turbos!


Recommended Posts

Hey Guys,

Just picked up this R32 GTR with an R33 N1 Eng and R34 N1 Turbos with 35,000kms on them. Car has Volk C28s and VSpec 2 Brembo's up front. Car is full of goodies and is set up for track work and makes 320KW at the wheels. Apexi PFC, Oil Ctach Can, Teflon Breaded Brake Lines, HKS Drag Intercooler,Greddy Cam Gears, Oil Cooler and 11 suspension braces through out make this car drive and handle unbelivably :P

Previous ownership both here and in Japan was th biggest reason for purchasing, as owner in Japan completed a ground up rebuild in 2004 and this was when the N1 gear was added. Interior is immaculate and car is as tight as I have ever seen a R32 to be. No clunkiness with this car at all, doors are tight and quite, as owner in Japan worked for Nissan on changed alot of small rubber parts to make things work like new.

Obviously pretty happy with the car abnd look forward to getting out and using it on some track days in the next few months!!

Plans are Tint, as well as powder coating wheels black, or upgrading to 18" Black rims and maybe a carbon front splitter.

Feedback Welcome-

Jamie,

You ended up trading M3 for it?

I did Grant. The M3 was a great car and if wasnt able to trade with this GTR, would have happily kept it and enjoyed ownership.

The detail on this R32 is amazing, each time I go over I see another kool feature or jst simply the cleaness of it.

Will be driven a few days a week but wont see many Kms at all and have my wife cars for rainy days. Looking forward to turning this R32 into one of the best in OZ over the next few years :P

Congrats on the car! Nice ride.

Where does the oil catch can drain back to - the sump, the hole for the dipstick, back to the turbos?

I will check it out and let you know.

Taking it down to Geelong today, good weather and nice roads!! What a Sunday:)

Jamie,

That is nice example of 32R, good list of modifications.

How does the M3 compares to current and your previous GTR's?

Cheers

I have had both stock GTRs and heavily modded as this one is and the M3 is a totally different machine. Stock R33 GTR and M3 felt similar to me, a little bigger but the M3 definately felt lighter.

The current R32 feels like a nice smooth 5 year old car, as alot of the small rubbers, door jams etc etc have been replaced and it is super quite and solid. Then you sit it at 3000rpm and stick the foot it and it comes to life!!!! The acceleration and sound is amazing :D Definately know you are driving something special. I felt I was getting a little mature for the GTRs and especially the R32s as alot of them look either beaten up or far too sooped up for a mid 30 professional. But this one looks super classy and not overdone- Very Happy :D

I have changed cars fairly often through the years, but I can guarantee this one wll be with me for a long time!!

Just be careful with the N1 motor mate.

They still have all the weaknesses of a stock RB26 and realistically are no stronger than a stock motor in most situations - especially track work :worship:

So overfill 1ltr, and if you cant afford to break it... be careful!

Craig's car was very clean, no doubt about that :)

Nice buy, interesting to see what the final sale price was for such a car...

Thanks R31Nismoid, will definately be careful with it as I know the Oil issues RB26 can have at the track. Might even be too clean a car to track it, might sit in my garage for the 90% of its life :)

Omega36, wasnt in Port Melbourne.

    • Please use a modern ECU. PowerFC with the Nintendo Gameboy controller is horrible. It's not 2005 anymore.
    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
