Hi Guys,

i want to introduce my R32 GTST to you.

Here's the story:

Since 2009 i was looking for a Skyline, first i was looking for a R34 coupe, later for the 4 door.

But in germany we have a BIIIG problem: the united kingdom with some shit boxes of skylines full of rust and out of service is just around the corner, so over here are a lot of these for stupid money.. its really sad..

So i wanted to import my car directly from JP, but not an r34. I saw so much videos from ebisu, full of R32's, so i wanted to know why they like them so much. So i started to investigate a lot and it sounds quit interesting: they wasn't very expensive, the RB20 is a very reliable, high reving engine and it doesn't cost much to get more HP.

So i decided to look for one with my importer. It took about 4 month (..) to find my actual car.

When it arrived, i was a bit shocked: the paint was quit horrible, the carbon bonnet was in bad condition, with a crack, which i have fixed:

Also i ripped everything out of the car, i just wanted to get a clean shell with 2 seats, a engine and 4 wheels on it wub.gif

Here are the pictures:

And my best idea on that afternoon:

Lets stickerbomb the door

The next day i installed my Takata 4 Point 3" saftybelt

Over the summer i had no interest to spend money into parts, i just wanted to drive/drift itcheers.gif

I COULD register the car for this year, it just passed the german TÜV (Technischer Überwachungs Verein - technical inspection group), which is in australia the road worthy certificate. Now the winter is on the way, so its quit stupid to drive it. Especially because when there is just a 0.01% change of snow, the administrative authorities give the order to strew salt on the streets and what that makes with your car should be known..

So over the winter i will paint it in a really cool color, also fit +20mm over fenders for the rear arches, to let it look just like its driven by an bad ass thanks.gif

I also will do a "little" bit tuning on the engine, let me just say: RB24DETthumbsup.gif

(I hope to get help and support with my project, in europe is nobody who has done that. I hope i'm not to stupid for it sweat.gif)

When something happened, i will post it right here.

Hope you enjoyed my story, have a nice day guys.

Cheers

Hi guys,

first: thanks for the welcoming.

Time to post some news.

I just ordered 6 650cc injectors for my RB24 project, my 2 way diff is also coming back to me on monday. So it starts to get hot.

Oh, just forgot, the design for the paintjob is done, now i just need to wait 2 month and buy the lacquerworship.gif

cheers

I'm not sure, because it shouldn't be a "until-5k-nothing,after-that-hell-on-earth" one,

thinking of the GT3582 right now, but the turbo is the last bit i'm going to buy whistling.gif

With an autobahn outside the front door, it may not be an oversized turbo.

devil.gif But to be honest, i want to use it as a drift machine, not a AMG killer, thats to boring pinch.gif

I just read in the 24 site RB24 thread that he used that turbo, so i thought it would be a good idea.

I'm looking for a turbo that isn't to lazy an starts spooling at maximum 3.500 RPM.

But now there is a problem: the bodywork is going to be more expensive than I thought, so i would run the stock RB20 and buy a exchange engine to build up rolleyes.gif

Oh, here is a little update as well:

Just bought a pair of rear overfenders

R32 overfenders

cheers

    • What 1.5 way? There's no such thing really as a 1.5 way, just different ways of explaining 2 ways with different ramp rates. HOWEVER. In any driving in a straight line your 1.5 or 2 or 1.7 way should have no clunking at all. With the clutch fully depressed the diff should be silent (unless it's welded but I'm assuming it's not). Something aint right here.
    • Clutch is a spec brand, new clutch system,( PP, flywheel, friction disc, etc. pull type) installed 100 miles ago, with no problems.
    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
