My 1989 32 Gtr Build


Recommended Posts

hey everybody, I'm new to the forum! But I figured i start a build thread for my 32 gtr.

Basically i always wanted a 32 gtr and after owning a few commodores i thought it was time to actually get one. i bought it about 2 years ago with the intention of building a nice street gtr by starting with a pretty cheap base and starting from there.

So after searching for one for a few weeks i decided on this one, it is a Dark blue 1989 model with minor mods and mainly just rough around the edges due to the previous owner neglecting it. So i made a deposit on it and picked it up a few days later and on the drive home the oil pump gave out due not being serviced for quite some time. So i started saving for bits and pieces to have my first try at building a forged bottom end. Due to a lack funds I tried to do as much as i could for just a basic first build then in time i could redo it when Ive got the money to fund it all.

Heres the specs so far, let me know what you think

Engine: R32 rb26 Block (decked, honed and dipped), R33 crank (reground .020 and balanced), tomei sump baffle, tomei oil restrictor, eagle Rods with arp bolts, Wisco 86.5, N1 water and oil pumps, Nismo thermostat, ACL race series bearings, all new genuine nissan gaskets, braided turbo lines, rebuilt r33 turbos with steel wheels, SplitFire Coils, Mspec 50mm radiator, blitz mesh pods,aircon removed, powdercoated cam and belt covers with a polished coil cover, gizzmo electronic boost controller and excedy button clutch

Exhaust: Apexi N1 3" stainless exhaust with aftermarket downpipes

Suspension: HSD HR Coilovers, Hicas lock bar with hicas completely removed

Wheels: 18x10 +15 Rota Grids with rays nutts

Other Modifications: UAS Big front rotor kit, inc billet caliper spacer (from a 292mm to 330mm rotor), Ferodo DS3000 pads, DBA 5000 two piece slotted rotor, apexi boost gauge, auto meter oil press gauge, hks turbo timer and Speed limit defender, N1 front vents, 5% tint on the rear section, HIDs, rear wiper deleted, modified headlights, momo steering wheel, trust gear knob and snap release boss kit.

    • Ive heard of OCD works. Hows the spool noise before and after? Feel free to PM links or videos if you want.   I've got a good mate that works for a reputable turbo company who says to stay away from them as theyve had a few turbos that came back with lots of issues. The other reason for sticking with EFR is that its just a drop in replacement. I was looking at the g45-1500 at cost price, but that would mean new down pipe, new lines, new intake piping etc etc.

    • I know you said no amps in the boot, but there's enough space next to the battery for a pair of modern small foot print amps OR one small 6x channel amp. This is what I did over 6 years ago, used 2x marine amps (no decent 6x or 5x channel amps back then)
