Well my car has changed a bit since I bought it in 2005. I bought it for a whopping 15k!!! and it's been the best car I've every owned. We've come a long way...

No plans on going anywhere or changing cars. Really the 32 GTSt (admitedly the 33 GTSt also) is one of the cheapest ways to get into motorsport. Even in standard form with a few mods they are bullet proof, relatively fast and easy to modify.

fitment on the rear looks real nice. How low is it on the rear?

I remember one of my first decas there was a sea of black 32s,

BigBird, Rylan, Sam and me. The black 32 brotherhood. These days it's only been me and Pat.

Rylan and Sam have disappeared.

haha black 32's represent!

wassup bitchiz?

haha hows your r32 doin? Last time i saw it (i think?) was when Rylan did that weird motorkhana in the grass/dirt!

You guys should band together and make R32 GTS-t hoodies :thumbsup:

haha, prob not enough people around to cover the costs :(

haha, im sure driver skill plays a lot into it too (for the r32 that is) :thumbsup:

Thanks for the build thread link, didnt know you had one. Havent thought about r34 GTT brakes before. Something you would do again?

Was expecting more new faces to post up! Its still the same ol' dinosaurs driving r32's haha

Yeah 34 GTT brakes are a great option. Would do it again for sure. Worked well even with the abuse I gave my car.

ah nice. Ive been eyeing these but they dont have any dust boots so a bit iffy on taking the plunge...

why? You mean dust boots around the pistons?

yeah, the wilwoods dont have them and the calipers were never ADR approved etc

Would prob have to get an engineers cert for them. However these brand new wilwoods are cheaper than 2nd hand r33 gtr brembos :domokun:

My G4's don't have dust covers but who cares if they're ADR approved. Just keep your standard ones if you have to change them back.

running grids as track rims?

LOL, no. Thet are genuine TE37s. Irs because the fronts are only +28 offset and rears +35 offset tht the look gay. They acrually grow on you, especially when you see all the JGTC with flat spokes that they kind of start to feel race spec cool :) (maybe)

fitment on the rear looks real nice. How low is it on the rear?

They are 17x9 +17 on the front and 17x10 +15 on the rear. Im running cusco zero's on the front and koni's on the rear. Not sure exactly how low they are in the rear.

I'm looking for some height adjustable coilovers to replace them though. needs more lowz..... :D

Anyone want a full set of lowered konis? or some cusco fronts?

Wish I was still part of this minority! Awesome cars, couldn't have asked for anything better in a first car. Having said that they're cheap as chips ATM, i might just get back into one next year after experiencing the joys/deep pockets of owning a GT-R.

Here she is in all her glory with my new baby; Damn I miss her :(

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
