Now, A while ago I would have said GTR32G was the best around, but I'm not if it's still local after the sale. Reason I'm asking is I'm trying to find a couple of immaculate cars for a few features. I'm open to serious suggestions. :) Car must have the following: Decent Powah... 300+kW Look the part... Autosalon is NOT the part. Owner has to be available for about 3 hours for a shoot and also must be ok with their pride and joy being on display on in a Singaporean/Japanese magazine. Favour will also be given to cars that get real usage. i.e. circuit or drags. Feel free to post pics and get your boxing gloves on as to who has the BEST GTR in town :P R31 GTSR, R32 GTR, R33 GTR, R34 GTR, R35 GTR and of course Classic Beasts are welcome too :D *ding ding ding*
My old GTR32G should be in Western Aust by now, so no longer in NSW Can bring the R35 out for some photos if you want Matt, has some WORK 20inch rims on it now, exhaust mods, larger front diffuser. and engine bay mods are getting planed. Also can bring out DR GTR again if you want R34 V Spec II Nur factory built R1.

Superjet owns RH9GTR? I remember seeing that car about 10 years ago and absolutely loving it! Does he still frequent these boards? I'd love to get in contact with him!

That's a bit weird Matt as the car used to be owned by me with the plates GTR32X and it was silver... I think ur thinking of RH9 the purple 34.. Cause Paul has only had RH9GTR plates on that car for about 2.5 years now.

Anyways my brothers Evo is now complete if ur interested in shooting that.

Genuine Evo 2 with a pretty built motor.

I think you are getting paid too much Brian :)

GTR32G (brians old r32) is still local at the moment.

I see the owner daily.

It's sitting around at the moment, the new owner wouldn't mind doing it, or giving me the car for the day if his not around.

Pm me of you really want that car and I'll assist you in organizing it.

Hi Brian, let me know when the mods get done :) Send me some pics in the mean time, I haven't actually seen this new toy of yours yet.

The RH9GTR I was thinking of was a white R32 with about a billion nismo parts and a couple big arse snails. it might have even been an N1. Not sure. That car probably doesn't exist any more, or has changed hands a number of times since then. Now that I think about it, i think the plate was just 'RH9'.

Hey Brad, that'd be cool if we could tee something up. Is your workshop the one near the driftmob boys?

I've been asked two provide a few features for a Singapore/ Japanese mag. I know I know.... the irony of the azn's wanting. to see what Aussie what Aussie power is. I tying Its a good sign that our scene is growing to the point where The rest of the world wants to take note.

Chris, there's a contact form on my site in my signature.

Or.... Matt @ matthewEveringham dot com.

Keep the car submissions coming people. I'm not limited to 1 car and I love seeing all your rides :)

Is that exactly how your email address is written?

i dont want to send the email to the wrong account

Uwish... YES. I posted with spaces so spambots wouldn't automatically pick up my address and add to spam lists ;/

KSR Is definately on the list. :D

First shoot from here is planned for sunday. I'll keep the car a suprise for now. As i said before, don't stop submissions, I'm not limited to one car. This is an awesome thread to show off some local talent too :)

Gents,

Feast your eyes on this Beast !!

Fully built RB26 still 2.6ltr with a T78 and a triple plate clutch making a whooping

400 AWK at only 16 psi and 98 octane fuel.

Capable of making over 450 AWK at the next tune on higher boost.

Now thats street tough!!

I got contacted by superjet760 earlier in the month regarding some parts; I believe he still owns the R32 that is running 8's, number plate is RH9GTR. He's still around these parts

The (other) GTR with plates just RH9 was that Midnight Purple II R34, right?

Can vouch for Michael's R33, it's fat

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day  
    • While I was waiting for the new parts to come in for the charge pipe and radiator I decided to do some turbo modification. The drive pressure (exhaust backpressure) was a lot higher that I thought it should be. For 32lbs of boost drive was 55lbs. The turbine housing is a 1.10AR and my turbo builder has suggested to go to a 1.25AR. To test if a larger AR would do anything to reduce drive pressure AND not spend any money I decided to hog out the divider in my current housing. I removed it from the inlet and the whole way through the housing.  After reassembly and testing it doesn't look like this modification did anything for reducing drive pressure or requiring more fuel (making more power). Oh well, it was worth a shot. We'll get some data at the track if it makes it past the 60ft. I also machined a $7 shift knob off Amazon to fit my Stillway shifter since I didn't like the Stillway shift knob. Next on the list was the radiator replacement and fabrication of a new intercooler tube that had no silicon coupler. No pictures of this - I was short on time each night after work to get this done and didn't stop to take pictures.  Next was to get the clutch disks out and replaced. Previously when installing the dogbox I had ordered a set of the same sintered iron disks I had been running because I switched to the 26-spline input shaft. I thought it was odd that they didn't have any markings or brand name on them like all my old disks had but installed them anyway. At the track I could not get the clutch to lock up using my normal strategies. After two track nights I reached out to the clutch manufacturer and ask their thoughts. They said they had to switch the material out because they were having trouble getting the original material and that this new material would not take to being slipped very well.  So out with the first set of 26-spline disks and in with the correct material 26-spline disks. While I had the trans out I added an inspection/service hole. I've wanted one of these for a while. Now I can have a look at things and change the front cover shimming when needed (clutch wear). I hustled and got the clutch change done in a few hours on a Saturday. Hopped in the car and drove home. On the way home I did a 1-3 pull. When shifting from 2nd to 3rd the core plug in the back of the cylinder head popped out and dumped all the coolant. Thankfully I was only 30 seconds from home and coasted it there. Datalog showed nothing unusual and 2.5psi of coolant pressure. That plug has been in there since 1992 but I guess it worked its way out. Pulled the trans AGAIN and replaced the plug, JB welded it in, and made a brace. Also deleted the head drain I had added in during the bearing issue fiasco.  I am currently changing my boost control plumbing to make it cleaner. After that is done I'll make another attempt at getting past the 60.
    • Are you 100% sure this isn't tune related?
    • 140-150 across the board. At this point hoping the grounding harness fixes it. My grounds are all tied to the chassis and none to the battery. For SR and KA that’s never been a problem for me but had a few other guys here and Reddit who told me RB really like a very solid ground setup tied to the battery so going to try that next, I’m stumped if that doesn’t do it. Never had a car have spark and fuel and not fire off before. Only thing I can think is the spark is intermittent/weak because of grounds nothing else really makes sense at this point 
    • I am having close to the same issue. Can you help me with what wire you grounded to get your pump to trigger?
