The Worlds Slowest R32 Gtst Builld Thread....

[hot_c210]

So this is the beginning of my ultra slow build.

The car is a R32 GTST in white, was previously used as a Drift/Track car at Matsuri and various other places and now im looking to "restore" it for road and partial track use.

The car was stripped out and was slowly being converted into a track car, i traded my boat for this and intended on building a Daily thats comfortable.

The list is very long for parts that are needed and work to be done.

Part needed:

A/C & heater Unit (everything)

Wiring Harness (Whole car)

bonnet

front and rear bar

Interior (pretty much everything)

sunroof (whole unit)

bonnet clip

headlights

front indicators

driver side tail light

paint

tyres

all 4 rotors

Pads

FMIC and piping

boost/fuel/various other controllers

stereo

lots of other bits and pieces

Due to work (AV tech so lots of night and weekend work) and money (have a kid) this will be slow going but will be done right and enjoyably.

I have owned a fair few cars in the past, fords, holdens, a R31 S2 silouhette 2x C210s and a stagea RS4 S1.

My Current Daily is the stagea and have a Datsun tucked away in a secret location for my next project.

This is not my first turbo car (stagea was) but this is my first turbo build up so its going to be a little bit of a learning curve.

anyways i hope this is enjoyable and inspires others to build their own personal piece of skyline history. Enjoy!

... looks very doable... I'd probably get the chassis checked over before diving head first into restoring it (chassis damage and rust mostly).

.. all these r32 gts-t build threads are really want Another r32 gts-t

cheers mate!

i think there is a little rust in the drivers sill under the side skirt..

the plan is to mechanically check things out and create a job list then strip it down (mostly) and send it to the paint shop/panel beaters and get them to go over it

you should do it, they are a fun little car and a helluva lotta fun!!

have 3 builds on at the mo (including a 610) ... can add another one (has a few 32's in nearly every rb combo)

one day, will get another one :-)

So i have been having trouble starting and running the car lately, finally got a chance to look at it (it lives at my in-laws) and it turns out the previous owner cut into the fuel pump wires and made a mess of it, all restored to factory and started first time, and no mis-fire without the tubo connected and AVC-R installed... still a long way to go but another step closer
