Hey guys

I own a 32 gtr and the engine has recently given up on me. I'm looking at rebuilding it but would like to know what preferred parts manufacturer are good. Obliviously HKS, JUN, TOMEI etc are top quality but I would like to know what other brands people have used and recommend.

Any help would be appreciated

Cheers

It depends on what you want the motor for, how much you can afford and how long you are prepared to take.

These people do good work:

http://www.gibsonmotorsport.com.au/

Or more realistically:

http://www.hioctanedirect.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=67_72&products_id=560

But more realistically there are places who do exchange motors, places who will promise to build them for you and just about any other service you can imagine. There is also an almost limitless range of gear and opinions to go with it.

So maybe start by sharing what you want to do with the car.

Still would like to keep it for the street no intentions of racing with it. Money isn't too much of a problem but I don't want to spend big. Would like the bottom rebuilt and then while the head is off I'm considering upgrading the cams, valves, springs etc

Thanks for the reply I will look at the website. Cheers

    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋
