Thinking...time attack. Maybe the only thing the wife will be on board with. I won't be doing any physical car work for a couple months at least.
Notice there are NO brake marks in the picture at the end of the road...

I'm not going to talk about what happened yet but seems throttle stuck and I had no brakes at all. 20171216_195420.jpgdownload_20171217_180044.jpgdownload_20171217_180037.jpgdownload_20171217_180012.jpg

Been awhile... But I'm coming back to life slowly. 2 cracked vertebrae are definitely in there. Back brace and very light duty for 2-3 months, but no surgery needed. I was extremely fortunate (thank God).

 

Good news is I picked up this beauty local. Gts-4 that needs a little work but he has all the parts to put it back together save for a hood and front bumper. Oh and I bought my car back from insurance! It's destiny is the widebody gutted caged racecar I should have built in the first place!

 

Things to look forward to gentlemen. Less weight, more grip, safer car!

So wait, you're putting the stuff into the GTS4 shell and turning that into the track car, or turning the GTR into a track car and turning the gts4 into the every day fun car?

 

Also, sorry to hear about the inccident

GTR chassis is pretty much bent in half. All the GTR stuff into GTS4 as full caged track car. Super widebody though is the plan.

Plot twist - Made a deal on this.

Motor runs well. New -7 turbos, new exedy hyper single clutch, intakes, exhaust, new HKS hipermax coilovers, stock interior, stock paint (not perfect, but workable), perfect dash. No wrecks from anywhere I can tell. Also comes with new in box Haltech platinum PNP.

Getting excited! Found it local just about when I was getting the GTS-4 put back together.

I will say the -7 were a little more laggy than I was expecting. I guess stroker + EFR has totally spoiled me.

Sorry apparently had something on my camera lens. Oh and the car was super dirty from sitting in a warehouse for months.

Well...Lots of other projects out of the way. New house, new move, same hurt back (but I manage). Finished most of my other racecar projects (couple of E36 M3's with LS swaps and a MR2 Spyder with a 2zz 6 speed swap), but I'm getting back at it gents. Get ready...should be really really fun this time. The crank was FINE on the RB28 and I'm going to be putting all this back together soon enough!!! STAY TUNED!

Well this popped up for sale about 6 hours from me for a very fair price. I like that it's still pretty stock. It does have downpipe, full exhaust, and coilovers...but check out that stock airbox! (forgive me I've never seen one in person on the 10 or so R32's I have seen). I will keep this one stock and build the other chassis into a pretty healthy racecar.

A lot of people replace the standard air filter setup but the stock airbox is good for around 400kw. My Racepace built 32R uses a stock airbox still. In fact i went from a K&N pod filter kit back to stock airbox.

Car looks good. From the engine bay shot, it also has a Nismo strut brace with the BMC stopper built in.

    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
