Well I'm replacing the mounting tape on my Drivers Front weathershield, that should get me to at least 9000kw.

Can't comprehend what driving a 400+ kw car is like.

Nice Result Luke. :woot:

thanks.

it honestly doesnt feel that quick.

Really? Why?

Im guessing it handles it well and feels right.

Or

Its too peaky and you only get a little squirt of 400+ kw

Or

You ride sportbikes and nothing compares too that.

Or

Your a law abiding citizen and haven had it on the track with the new tune. :ermm: maybe

At the hillclimb, a 32 gtr with minor mods, smashed my time by more than 5 seconds.

They are quick as already.

Put in my Water Temp Adapter and Sensor, connected the wires, took it for a drive, YAY! All my Gauges work just fine. :D

Will Wash her as a Reward for being a good girl. (plus she's FILTHY!) might even give her a Vac. ;)

Well I had a look at my head light, passenger sidw not working. Globe is fine, the bit the globe sits in is fine. Ran the test light to the plug and it has power....

I'm stumped has anyone got any ideas? Pm me if you want so it doesn't get this thread off topic.

I have been googling all arvo lol

Yea swapped globes, I have power coming to the light (green wire) but I assume no earth that's why it's no go, also the high beam doesn't appear to work on that side but has power at the plug (red/yellow I think it is)

So I'm guessing its the earth from the loom before the wires split up with plugs for high/low beam.

I don't have a multimeter :/

Would it be to dodgy to splice the earth from the drivers side and run it across?

At first I was thinking bout bringing everything from the drivers side to the passenger side, but wasn't sure if it would work. I might just see if someone is wreck at r32..

Thanks Rob, I have given up for the day ..... Battery went flat lol

hmmmmm.

dont know.

maybe im used to it from run in tune?

could be like stock turbo cars that dont feel quick even though they are?

will see how she goes at the 1/4.

Washed and found a bottle of Meguires Final Inspection in the Garage so I gave her a once over with that too.

Not bad stuff.

A while back I painted my interior lights and Rear View Mirror Black. Looks much better in a pic.

Also removed a bracket for the stock airbox and the bracket for the jack. Don't need them so out they come.

Crammed my Pod Shield back in too.

Headlight switch on cluster surround :thumbsup:

Oh really? It does look old and used but I figured it was fine cos the drivers side worked?

Are they serviceable or should in get a new one?

I've heard of one guy who eventually fixed his. You can tryyyy and fix the contacts. I did and failed..

I then replaced mine twice with 2nd hand ones. Same issue :(

Bought a new one - not cheap - $185 and should be fine for the next 20yrs. http://www.kudosmotorsports.com/catalog/nissan-headlight-switch-genuine-nissan-nissan-skyline-r32-gtr-gts-gts25-gts4-gtst-p-1341.html

YES - a very common issue with R32 GTR's. Hence why you can still buy them new.

(I had the same issue as you and tried many things with out success. Easier to replace)

Exactly my thoughts... My old 94 Bluebird had an internal issue with the indicator stalk.

I figured if I couldn't fix it, I'd just buy one but with some fiddling, a ziptie and some superglue, all fixed.

Total cost = $0.00.

I bought the switch as even if you try to fix the old one it will happen again at some point. The new one will see the Car out. So really not bad for 20+ years at least for the price.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
