Hey guys, has anyone here thought about, or actually fitted up an MFD into an R32 GTR (*or GTS-T)? I know it's more than that, ecu, grav sensors etc? I reckon it would be a total d!ck around, but would it be possible provided you had all the R34 electro gizmos? Or is the R32 GTR (*or GTS-T) hardware too old to chuck in the '34 GTR loom, ecu's, etc?

Figure it'd be nicer than have a bazillion gauges. lol

That really is a serious question - I have my flame suit on.


Failing that, has anyone fitted a Wolf Motorsport ECU to an R32 GTR (*or GTS-T), and an iPad mini (which Wolf has the app for the readouts, etc that connects to the ecu via WiFi/Bluetooth) to basically replace their mechanical gauges?
I figure in a race car you don't really need a radio/aircon so there's a big-a$$ hole where they usually sit, and a heap of gauges, while appropriate for racing really isn't my thing in an R32 - being a techno gizmological object, I think it'd look better with a digital display that you could select certain digital gauges to display, and any red lines that happen would come to the forefront and warn you of impending lunar trajectory of your rods and valves.


Just an idea.
I reckon it's neato, and I know guys are doing the iPad mini conversions (haven't seen one in an R32 yet), and as Wolf has an app for their ECU for in car analysis in real time - I figure why not - if it's possible, it'd be phugg!n cool.


Opinions?
Flaming?
Laughs?

You R34 and '35 Guys can laugh all you want being much newer cars, saying I wanna make my R32 to grow up and be just like the big boys.. which is kinda true. LOL.
So flame and opinionate away.

I would like to implement it, as I just decided to garage my R32 now rego has run out, and build a nice streeter that is capable of being tracked, while still looking almost up to date, and capable of driving nicely without issues like fuel mixture, etc popping up every two seconds and stalling it out - like mine just started doing.

Also ^ Build thread shall come when I find my camera - but it will be slow, and just another boring thread about a car that isn't all that special compared to a lot of other R32's on here.

:-)

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By MBS206 · Posted

      When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?

      Chris' Toyota Mark ii JZX110

      Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.

      If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
