Marlin - Im a little scared to go full sequential. Im thinking i might try a gearset first... but im definately keen on replacing the stock brakes and a weld in cage for serious track time

You're sure going to need some brakes :/ A cage doesn't need to be weld in, a proper, I stress proper bolt in would do you just fine.

Re the 'box... fair enough too mate when a S6 Hollinger and other requirements to run/fit it add up to around $22k!

That's why I suggest dry sumping that lovely engine instead.... that'll cost around 10k to do it once, do it right. On any serious GTR it's one mod that is very much worth doing, and it will save you costly rebuilds down the track. Never have an oil issue ever again, it'll be totally out of your mind, and you'll be busy having fun while all the other guys are emptying catch cans and mopping up oil lol....

If you need a good box, let me know. We have a virtually brand new latest spec (upgraded selectors) PPG full dog box to suit you here for $6k. Ready to bolt in :D

bigmikespec - exactly what i was wanting. something that i interpret as a true japan style gtr...

just had a dyno run this week for a "check-tune" and made 468kw AND 590Nm @wheel's (all 4), pump fuel and 20psi and prolly say thats at 7,900rpm

p.s. thats also with a full exhaust system (hi-flo cat, muffler & exit muffler. HKS silent hi-power)

fun123 - from memory the head port its quite expensive process. i couldn't tell you how long the actually porting took because of all the other work i had done during the process. give the guys at gt a call and you can work out with them if it would suit your application to go this road (other porting work might suffice).

Well the time has come and im thinking of parting with my GTR. Any interested parties drop me a pm and we can talk.

Cheers.

      Well, this is probably where a wiring diagram and a multimeter come into play.

      gauge needle removal

      I can say to anyone thats doing this; having done a number of R clusters; just be careful if its an unknown cluster.  It takes a bit of force to pull up; but if it feels excessive then its probably stuck. I've had this and pulled the entire hair spring out; and I can tell you; its not easy getting the correct spring replacement with the correct inner diameter and winding. In my case someone had used some sort of adhesive to stick it to the spindle and it pulled the whole spindle out; which the force seperated the hairspring from the spindal and caused it to deform.  You may have to clean it (IPA); or in my case if i'd known i should have used some sort of solvent on it.  Also check out Cruizin Central on eBay. He does all sorts of dials; and you can email him with any custom designs you want. So if you want like certain logos etc...he'll send you a mock of what it will look like then you accept the order and he'll take care of the rest. Fantastic dials and he can do basically any design you want.

      R33 GTST Axles

      Have you confirmed its the actual axles? Also the wheel bearings that mount on the hubs to hold the axles wear out. I replaced mine as they got play in them. It sorted my play issue.

      R34 Speedo not working after manual swap

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Ive converted a few clusters for the R33 with 320km/h dials. On the back there are some pads which can be bridged or unbridged (using solder or wick braid) to calibrate it. There is one bridge which is for MPH <> KPH; and there are combinations of bridges to offset it. There is probably a diagram  For example; this is my conversion for a 180km/h dial to a 320km/h dial (I put custom GT-R dials on it with the GTS25t layout) If you have J2 soldered (assuming the S clusters have a similar config to the R clusters); you may need to remove that solder

      Back on topic 😉, these are some of the notable pages from the booklets that are supplied with each weekly parts update. I never knew the BNR32 test mule car had an S13 Silvia front end... *Edit: On closer inspection the test car still had the R32 body, but only the front end had Silvia panels etc.
