Nice! Make sure you have a good read through the different topics, heaps of good information! Hahah yer true! I'm yet to go to a track, just sorting out little things with the car first. I'm 19 mate, I think my profile has that Info... I'm located in larrakeyah, which is just near the Darwin CBD.

Are you gonna drive it back up here?

Also what kind of r32? Mods? Etc

Completed the drive! All went well with no issues! Conveniently I arrived in Alice Springs the night before the open speed limits were brought in ;) Was goooooood fun!

I'm having an issue with my car now, when I run the same boost as I was running in Adelaide, it backfires and hesitates, this decreases when I turn down the boost but I want to sort this issue out!

I've narrowed it down with some brain storming to an issue where it's not getting enough fuel, hence running lean. First thing I did then was replaced the fuel filter and it seems to be running better but the issue is still there.

The guy I bought it off couldn't tell me the last time the sparks were replaced so I am yet to do that. I'm thinking maybe injectors are blocked? Won't be back in Darwin till the end of the month so have a few things that I'm ordering for it so I can have a fiddle when I get back :D

I'm Harrison btw haha, 18 and live in Bayview.

Car is a 1993 R32 GTST grey mods include:

RB25 turbo upgrade

440cc Injectors

Greddy 2 stage boost controller

Tein super street coilovers

Unknown aftermarket exhaust

Turbosmart Plumb back BOV

R32 GTR FMIC

HKS POD filter

Adj rear camber arms

Front GTR strut brace

Drifttek 17's

Full R32 GTR front end conversion

And semi slicks on the back (they don't like water haha)

Guys, can one of you tell me a good place in Darwin to get my rims powder coated? Also where do you recommend to get a quality respray done?

Hey man! Ummm i used KC Customs for my front bar respray - They super good and have good quick turn around, not sure if they powder coat but they repair gutter rash and i'm sure can help you out! Defs full respray go to KC customs - Ask for Christian Butler and tell him Harrison with the R32 bar he painted sent you. What's your name? Do you come out to TC often? Would be keen to meet with ya if I haven't already met you!

    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
    • Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
