Hey guys,

I own an r32 GTS-4 4 door and after doing a little bit of searching, came across this...

http://frsedan.com/2011/03/14/collaboration-strong-r32-sedan/

I just bought an Aluminium GTR bonnet, and I'm wondering about the grille and bar. Will it all bolt straight up?

I'd also like to look into doing the wide body style, as seen in that pic, further down the track when I can afford some decent wheels to fill them, but haven't seen any 4 door wide body kits available? I'll most likely get the GTR front gaurds, but am still stuck with the rear. The one in that link doesn't look like it is an aftermarket item that has been fitted, although I could be wrong.

Any help would be appreciated! Cheers, Cameron.

That said my car looks factory.

Front end, you will need a gtr bonnet catch fr the bonnet.

Bar would need a gtr reo. Guards bolt up no worries.

As for the wide body. Youll need to cut the rear quarters to get the most out of it. Sedan guards are piss weak.

So for the front end, I'll need:
GTR bonnet (acquired)
GTR bonnet catch
GTR Grille
GTR front bar
GTR Reo

GTR gaurds

And no modification is needed?

I might do the complete front end at once then, while I'd be painting and taking stuff apart.

Where did you find the fibreglass panels for the rear, and why did the quarters need cutting to get the most out of it? How is it all mounted?, cause it looks nice and flush and like a cop wouldn't be able to tell it's not factory, which is ideally what I'm after. A clean looking, but still stands out from the crowd kind of car.

      They care about emissions, and cost the most. Save weight where possible, and make manufacturing easier. Less material also let's the engine transfer heat to water quicker, and bring the engine up to temp quicker, better for emissions and getting them past their warranty period.

      I was under the impression the reason why OEMs are going with solutions like relatively thin "right-sized" cylinder walls with technologies like PTWA and open deck is because they care a lot about whatever marginal knock margin benefits they get from that vs the structural rigidity benefits of a closed deck block and thicker cylinder walls. I also see some weird stuff like plastic inserts in the water jacket around the cylinders to try and equalize cylinder wall temperatures. re: the PRP blocks and heads at the end of the day it's hard to know what is and isn't going to work there, just have to see what the initial buyers say about it.

      Which is why I didn't mention that hardness testing, and specifically mentioned the bore and deck thickness testing. Yeah, not really. The bore temperature will be a lot more even around the top half inch or so, where the material distribution is dominated by the deck, and which is the only place where the bore surface temperature heating any gas in the cylinder is likely to have any effect on detonation. Think about it. Another inch or so down the bore, you might have a hotter spot. The gas there might get a bit hotter, then the piston rises squeezes that gas away from there at high speed and mixes it with other gas from nearby. Instant dilution of the problem. I'd be surprised if it was an issue at any time other than in racing engines or OEM dev engines being run at the ragged edge of tuning. Say what now?

      https://dsportmag.com/the-tech/education/engine-tech-material-hardness-testing/ The PRP testing on block hardness I'm not sure how much it actually can be trusted. The thinner cylinder walls on RBs is a bit of a problem vs 2JZ but it really depends on the design goal. Siamesed cylinder bores like a 2JZ cause uneven cylinder wall temps too, which means a bit of distortion induced by that + the hotspot can affect knock margin. Something that actually gives me a bit of pause with the PRP block, whether super thick cylinder walls are going to keep it from being drop-in compatible on an otherwise OEM rebuild.

      Yeah very valid point. I am waiting for one of the other tuners to come back from vacation so he can help me a bit when the cat is installed again. In the meantime I am going to finish up my polishing and ceramic coating that I have started myself.    N45 Dr Beasley product is highly recommended for a paint primer / polisher. Using this EXO Gtechniq also for the ceramic but next time might use the light serum before hand also. Looks great.
