Setting A R32 Gtr Up For Drags - With A Differance. Help?

[Adz2332]

Hey all,

I’m currently looking for a 32 gtr to use as a track only car, mainly for drags and go to whoa

The thing is i only have access to a 1/8mile track

So i want to set the car up as much as possible for this, so huge horsepower and high top end isn’t really needed im guessing? Instead acceleration and midrange is more important.

Im going to start buying parts for when i find the right car.

The car will be completly stripped and running semi slicks

Im thinking the following parts

• -9s or -5s??
• Tomei Poncams Type B
• Tomei cam gears
• 1000cc injectors
• Walbro e85 fuel pump
• Power fc
• Profec II boost controller

Any other ideas??

If you are doing all the head / cam work then go Garrett -5's.

But being only a 1/8 mile track... You might be better off with Garrett -9's...

How much power you want to push?

And are you only going to run 1/8 mile tracks?

[Adz2332]

To be honest im not getting caught up in the i want X amount of power.

Im looking at the quickest 1/8th mile times possiable.

Yer i will only be doing 1/8th mile for a few years yet.

Also unsure of suspension yet

Is it going to be auto or manual?

Manual mate

and after this is sorted i will start putting parts aside for a rebuild

In addition to you mods, just go with a 3" or 3.5" exhaust.

Also unsure of suspension yet

Nur33 runs with a full Ikeya Formula Suspension setup, with his RH8 / RH9 R32 GTR Drag car.

I think any decent full adjustable Japanese / German etc brand will do you.

Just got to set it up right.

Thanks mate

re exhaust, im thinking to go no exhust, find a decent dump that sperates for a long distance the just exit out the side. havent found a dump yet tho

Yer im going to ask the guy with RH8 what he recommends, of course im not thinking as big a build as him but cant hurt to ask.

Its really turbos im a bit up in the air about

Yeah, just make custom twin side pipes.

Your not racing far... 200 metres...

You'd be better off with a full response turbo setup.

Go Garrett -7's or stick to the Garrett -9's just for more top end when needed.

the reason for doing it its cos i always wanted to do it....and for weight saving

the main reason though was weight saving cos the exhaust the car had was very heavy

now..the x-thing is there for the a/f ratio sensor for tuning...to get the gases for both sides

[Adz2332]

i wonder what dumps he is running with it?

And diamater?

[(OO)SKYLINE(OO)]

Not too sure.

Diametre wise, it would at least be a 3".

Or if you can find a Kakimoto Racing Hyper Ful Mega N1 Dual Exhaust and just use the down and front pipes and custom to exit to the side.

cheers mate... great pics, will give me a sort of template to get one made

For a full drag car why u even considering twins?

6262, 4.3 diff ratios, factory suspension high and soft, good ECU with launch control, and some bullshit good tyres!!!

[NXTIME]

and you will still only need 2 gears

[Adz2332]

Thanks for the advice. really am tossing up between doing a gtr or a gtst, havent really decided.
