ohh why would you rice a GT-R when u can be like Keir Wilson and own the track, cant wait for my shit to roll up on the docks ill rip it outa the contaner and do launches down the docking strip.haha . shit im getting outa hand ... ive had my fun at drifting now i wanna go all out grip and power , but i would rather set my GT-R up as jap spec , thats looks mean and has shit loads of power .

Yeah when Hpi stated the Code45 GTR had very rare rims, I laughed. Im for go but I dont mind the show as well. 400kw at all 4 baby baby. If anyone genuinely is interested in buyer an R, please dont hesitate to contact me as a new beast is on the way from sushiland. Willing to sell if the right buyer and price is offered.

whats the right price, i have someone with cash looking for a gtr

Cash mmmmmm I love cash hahaha........ I wouldnt accept anything less than 40,000 cash for it as it is. I just spent 8 grand on extra parts not shown on car (brembos, drag cooler, defi gauges etc etc etc, two tone bmw leather etc.

Sorry mate I was only playing with Wreckedhead, didn't mean to offend every R32 driver on the forum

LOL, none taken. I was being serious, it really is the sleekest shaped car I've ever owned. Whether it's boxy to others or not doesn't worry me! Once again, none taken.

Anyway, on the go or show front, the motor comes out tonight. Hopefully 350 at the rears once we finish. :wassup:

ok sounds cool to me, sold the 18's in the pics above, putting 20s on later today, will post pics soon as i get a chance, got a good price so if anyone is interested in buy a good set of 20s let me know.

I'm building my GTS-t more for go...a black R32 already has the show...

will post pics of the new 20in wheels. looks crazy for anyone looking to buy wheels, 20s are your best choice.

Yeah, fully :uhh:

I dont understand how people cant see the appeal of 20's.

Shit ride quality, totally impractical, hellishly expensive rubber.................but the chicks dig it right?

I hope you got a free Tempe Tyres sticker with your new wheel hotness!

What sort of slicks, semi slicks, drag radials or drag cross-plys can you get for 20inch rims? Apart from being able to run massive brakes that would have the power to rip your face off, I don't get it if the tyres can't keep up with the brakes?

Did you change the ring and pinion to compensate for the larger rolling diameter? I know you've posted about being relatively fast around a track and at the drags - have the larger rims changed the suspension settings much?

Yeah I'm stupid and don't get alot of things ><

suspension was adjustable, didnt change the ride hight at all, feels exactly the same as 18s. i got nittos tyres on the wheels now, some cross drag radial. they are actually a very good tyre. i didnt change any rings or pinions to compensate for the larger diameter, the speedo is still the same.

but as you must know doughboy the wheels are just for show, at the drags ill have a set of 17 or 16in slicks .

Yeah, fully :uhh:

Obviously you have a lot experiance with 20in wheels blitz, "Shit ride quality" ( dont think so its as shit as an 18in wheel) "totally impractical"( not really how practical are 18s or 19s. same shit really)"hellishly expensive rubber" ( its the same as any 18 or 19 in rubber) so i think you got a few things wrong, and for the chicks part, your 100percent right.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
