There aren't any non-turbo R32s eligible for import mate, sorry. GTS-4s were turbo. You'll need to get an R33 or something completely different.

Just curious why is this so?

I purchased an R32 GTS25 that had been imported to Aus around 2002. But as a personal import I think. Any difference?

Edit: If my memory serves me right I think the car came from NZ not straight from Japan if that would also affect it?

GTS4-turbo - yep thats doable ( I asked the question about a month ago.) but you would REALLY want to know what you are look at from a distance.

Why would you want to import an NA as a race car???

Why not? Haha was just curious. :P

Yea GTS-25. I have one, I will tell you now it is no struggle or push over. It gets up and boogies! It would have to have at least 110-120kw at the wheels in dead stock form. Torque is awesome and pulls all the way to redline. :)

Possibly the best value for money option if you have some mechanical ability/cheap help, would be to buy a turbo, swap for an NA motor for your P plate years and then re-install the turbo engine if the car is still intact at the end of that time :P

Pretty much any import you bring over (that IS allowed) will cost 6k or more on top of the car cost by the time you have it on road. lots of R32s around for much less than that.

      98 R34GTT 4k engine stumble

      By JC71 · Posted

      forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k.

      98 R34GTT 4k engine stumble

      By JC71 · Posted

      neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock.

      Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
