With SAU VIC Winton track day just around the corner I had the realisation that I needed to get the standard bootlid/spoiler setup back on stat.

Didn't have any time left so spent a couple of nights with $120 worth of paint supplies. Didn't expected a pro result but it'll get me by for the 2015 season at least.

Didn't turn out as bad as I thought it would be. (although I wish I had an effective way of baking the panels afterwards).

Orange peel galore atm. Will wait a couple of months for it to all harden properly before giving it a good polish.

Rear badge removed off the old fibreglass bootlid, cleaned up and 3M double sided tape applied.

Spent ages measuring and getting the badge on exactly in the right spot to the mm. (11mm from the bottom, 30mm from the right) - SAU to the rescue once again with that info. Lots of sweat involved in this task.

The photo of an 32GTR with factory bits isn't amazing to anyone but me....

For the first time in 10years since I've had the car. Rear spoiler! Spent quite a while looking at it, last night. <Sob>

Soooooo changes the look of the car.

The fibreglass boot lid that the car came with from Japan. Impressive quality and very light. Will be hanging onto this.

Next stop. Boot lip. The one I have has a few holes that need to be fibreglass, patched up so that will have to wait.

Some odd and ends from RHDJapan for some upcoming small projects.

Brake Line A Clamps, Sideskirt clips & Nice shiny new replacement door handles.

On a separate note, I finally measure the offset of the 17"s that came with the car.

+0 Offset TE37's. Figures why they filled out the guards so well for a 9" rim.

Hey, can you tell me what the part number is for the door handles please?

Cheers

This shiz needs updates.

It does. I've lost momentum recently and this is why.

Leaving in the morning, earlier in the year in March. Winton Circuit Club Track day.

This is how the car left the March Circuit Club Winton track day. The motor didn't fare too well unfortunately.

Thanks to team gtr_jet for getting the car home. Would have been majorly screwed otherwise.

Sat on it for a couple of months then finally got it sent to Racepace.

Ahh the natural home of a raced GTR - on the back of a tow truck.

Racepace were nice enough to pay for tow back. Sitting back at home now in it's current state.

Least I get to paint the engine bay now, I guess.

I'll post up later on when I get time what we know so far. Guesses on what went wrong?

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
