Mohsen it's a farkin 32 not an xy gt. quit making all these gay dream plans and just get it on the road with fresh interior stuff and a respray.

Lol, f**k no. Might as well put in the extra work and do it

Right instead of slapping it together just to get it on the road.

She's not that bad, her eyebrows and serious expression in every photo just reminded of Uncle Leo and the arm tatt is bit...yeah. Would like to see her smiling in a photo...

EDIT: slightly better photos on her FB page.

Disagree re: r32 plan

Harder and harder to find a r32 which hasn't gone down the cheap thrashed path. It is better to see a clean r32 than some cheap and nasty with power because that power is nothing spectacular so it's lose-lose.

My opinion would be to restore a r32 gtr but 4dr's provide a different view

Good luck with the rebuild, in 5-10years time when everyone has moved on to their family/boring cars you will have something which wasn't discarded because of the cheap thrash mentality.

Similar example; look at all the kingswoods being restored. Everyone looking for shells including the basic 6cyl models.

Tl;dr

so its more like an investment?

Lol no. It's at the tipping point where there are no more clean r32's. p-platers can't buy them and full license holders don't bother.

Give it a couple more years and they will all be rusting away.

I actually share the same mentality with R33 GTS-Ts. As common as they are, look at all of them...thrashed out, modified to the shit. There's hardly any examples left that don't have a myriad of problems, are smashed up or look like ass. One day a genuinely low km clean example will fetch a fair bit, simply because of the rest...

    • Bit difficult to follow. Have a look below and see what the standard R32 layout was like. Note there was a restrictor in place immediately before "turbocharged pressure control solenoid" that, if removed, magically got you 1 bar boost.
    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?    
    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
