whizzn Posted December 20, 2012 Author Share Posted December 20, 2012 Some more goodies turned up in last couple days Not 100% happy with seats at moment, there a little dirty so will take them to detailers to have professionally cleaned before fitting and the drivers seat has one very minor little pin hole in it so will get trimmer to do something here so it doesn't get any bigger The superstreet Teins arrived a couple days ago but only unpacked them this morning, whilst unpacking the courier also turned up with my new Whiteline adjustable sway bars New corner lights have also turned up but not 100% sure if going to fit them now as i like look of N1 lights with orange corners, guess i'll just have to fit 1 and see which side i like better Picked up another ECU for it also but no pic, you know what they look like. Nothing wrong with miine just bought it for the casing to mount the Vi-Pec unit into Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/352253-r32-gtr-complete-rebuild/page/5/#findComment-6675736 Share on other sites More sharing options...
whizzn Posted December 20, 2012 Author Share Posted December 20, 2012 Had pleasant surprise this afternoon, my new Cusco bars are already here from RHD in Japan I'm usually hesitant to use online foreign companies as you hear some horror stories from time to time but i highly recommend this company, very fast shipping and good service http://www.rhdjapan.com/ Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/352253-r32-gtr-complete-rebuild/page/5/#findComment-6675913 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ants Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 (edited) Hey Whizzn, When are you getting the Abflug carbon under tray as I want to get one too?

whizzn Posted December 30, 2012 Author Share Posted December 30, 2012 Hey Whizzn, When are you getting the Abflug carbon under tray as I want to get one too? Going to wait until i get all the suspension in to see how low it sits in the front to make sure i have enough clearance. After what Chris said in earlier post he got me thinking hence decision to postpone the purchase for bit Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/352253-r32-gtr-complete-rebuild/page/5/#findComment-6684990 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ants Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Thats actually a good point. Better check my suspension as well for clearance Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/352253-r32-gtr-complete-rebuild/page/5/#findComment-6685025 Share on other sites More sharing options...
whizzn Posted January 7, 2013 Author Share Posted January 7, 2013 Finally, the bushes have all arrived and i now have everything needed to fit new suspension into car Going to pull the rest of the spare front strut assembly apart this week and send to powdercoaters then take into somewhere to get all the bushes etc pressed into place, bring home and bolt back together on bench then take these along with car to somewhere to have fitted (dunno where yet, anyone have any recommendations here in Bris?)

whizzn Posted February 21, 2013 Author Share Posted February 21, 2013 No updates as of yet, my parts guy has gone MIA on me so trying to figure out things without his input (especially since he has the FAST program that would be real handy at moment) Taking front suspension to a powder coater tomorrow and ringing another workshop since Elite has closed down to get car booked in for fitting the suspension and fixing the snapped gearbox cross member bolt Hopefully will have more specific updates in next week Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/352253-r32-gtr-complete-rebuild/page/5/#findComment-6760473 Share on other sites More sharing options...

whizzn Posted March 20, 2013 Author Share Posted March 20, 2013 All suspension now fitted, didn't need to fit the Whiteline rear frame bushes as someone in Japan fitted solid mount items in there already so left them in there Coilovers set in softest position at moment and feels stiff but not too excessive so still rides relatively nicely, going to wind fronts up a little though as wheels do scrape on plastic inner fender on some bumps so i think a little stiffen up will solve this Car site ridiculously flat around corners now with no body roll at all, can't wait to get it to track to test it's limits though Looks like i might of scored a set of HKS GT RS turbo's with not even 4k km's on them for sweet price, looking at them next week No photo's as car is dirty at moment due to sitting in workshop and getting wet on way home lmao Post some up when i get home in couple days Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/352253-r32-gtr-complete-rebuild/page/5/#findComment-6789977 Share on other sites More sharing options...
whizzn Posted March 25, 2013 Author Share Posted March 25, 2013 (edited) Just quick photo of how it looks now with all suspension in place Absolutely love the way it handles now Ohh and had windows tinted while back also, definately an improvement in not just looks but cabin temps also Edited March 25, 2013 by whizzn Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/352253-r32-gtr-complete-rebuild/page/5/#findComment-6794734 Share on other sites More sharing options...

whizzn Posted March 25, 2013 Author Share Posted March 25, 2013 Still waiting for the front & centre covers from RHD, 3 weeks and waiting Don't think i will fit them to this motor though, think they can sit in room until i build new motor, that way everything will look brand new when motor goes in Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/352253-r32-gtr-complete-rebuild/page/5/#findComment-6794976 Share on other sites More sharing options...
