Hey guys, got my car back from the tuners yesterday and everything was running fine, I got home from work this arvo , parked it up for about halfa, went to start it again and it won't turn over, doesn't even sound like it wants to, it is a r32 gtst.

Fmic

550cc injectors

Bosch 040

Z32 afm

Exaust

Nistune

I was thinking starter motor but I'm abit hesitant to roll start it as I don't want it left out on the street if it doesn't Start.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Cheers - Trent

ive had the starter motor soliniod wire come (on and r32) off b4 just wouldnt even try to crank till i got underneath it and seen... then plugged it up and away she went..if u suspect the starter get underneath and give it a bit of a tap with a hammer (or hard object) and see if u can beat it back into life (not too much and don't whale the piss out of it) Try that 4 a start mate

Turn the head lights on and try to crank it. If the lights dim right down the battery may be the issue or the starter has a

Dead short inside it.

If the lights stay bright it may be the starter motor solenoid.

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
