I like everything but the wheels.

And the lack of engine mods.

And maybe the colour.

... But aside from that, it's pretty cool.

is that about the time you were giggling like a girl? :nyaanyaa:

I thought he was always going that..?

I love going for hills run during work hours on a day off. there is nobody around.

but i wouldnt be too keen to go today with this wet weather.

starting to miss driving the GTR, havent driven it in 3 weeks. its getting the engine mounts changed and the fusable link replaced.

the fusable link is really starting to annoy me, it keeps slowly burning out. when i last drive it, the wire was hot to touch.

i think its because the link is pretty old and stuffed, hopefully it'll be able to put some charge into the battery soon!

yeah I used to hit up the hills in the rain on my bikes all the time, love it; sharpens your skills IMO.

hadnt driven the r32 rb26 since I picked it up after the rebuild a cple months ago - been fiddling with bonnet mounts etc for the blitz fpr bonnet (still not happy with fitment, but its nice & secure and wont be smashing over the roof, not like the original bonnet did Lol). damned sore knee (left) now though from the gears, got to say the Bride brix chair is pretty uncomfy.

Should be pretty impressive once tuned correctly, power comes on strong, handling is precise, and the brakes work a treat. Going to get a few hundred kms onto the engine then have the tune finished off, ready for mallala track days.

Can't wait to join you out there repping the 4 door 32's Tangles. My new track whore doesnt have a 26 in it, but a 20 with a bigger turbo - has alot more top-end power than the 25 in my other 32, so it should be fun.

top end power is shit.

i would kill to have a reponsive tourqy thing :(

I wish my 25 R32 had more topend, it all happens before 5.5k, hitting full boost at 2300rpm is all well and good, but when youve got an engine that wants to keep revving but is only doing a lot of huffing and puffing, well quite frankly it sucks lol.

The black R32 is so much faster in the twisties than when it had the RB20 it isnt even funny, but I could imagine on the track the 20 in the silver R32 would reel it in. Keep in mind Im comparing a stock 25 with 12 psi to a RB20 with a bigger turbo - unsure of specs just yet.

Then you need my highflow turbo Dion. Response is similar to stock but it keeps going up top unlike the stock ones. :D

Twin charge... Crank and exhaust driven boost... Something I would love to do but at the same time I'm glad my car is the way it is (max psi around 3600 also), I can comfortably drive it off boost and save fuel/ wear and tear. Besides, if I'm on boost in 2nd gear or above my license is also at risk :)

Bit of an EOI here for a good friend who wants to get rid of an r31.

It's an 88 gxe auto, running but no rego, just had service blah blah blah, would suit track build. White on black, if anyone is interested he said he wants 1350.

This guy spent 15k on another one and it is a gorgeous car (he loves 31's) so if anyone is interested pm me and I'll give you his number :) I'm considering it myself but I already spend enough on my 32 haha

    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
    • Does the scanner do all the CUs in the car, or only the ECU?
    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
