Honestly you aren't likely to get a real response until you actually start building an r32gtr with a vr38.

In all reality you could get more power and torque for half the price.... but who doesn't love a nicely tuned vr38?

Lastly, the engine is barely half the reason an r35 gtr is fast.... its the gearbox, suspension, weight, width, aero and electronics that all work together that make it fast. If I was to look at doing it, I would try and start with a wrecked r35 and transplant as much of the r35 as possible into a wide body r32gtr shell.

i though you said over and out,

I thought you said you already measured?

Vote to move thread to wasteland where it belongs

Edited by MagicMikeZ32

read carefully, i measured the engine bay

and the RB engine

Oh cool! So you know that an engine that came in a car will fit in the car it came out of?

Or something

it might be hard for you to understand

but you need to know how big the hole is,

and then you need to have a reference point for the front diff

so it helps to measure a standard engine

mate its people like you that persecuted galileo

I like good ideas as much as the next guy.

Here is 1 for you. Buy a 35.

At least you'll be able to drive it.
Either way, this isn't a build thread.

where is the fun in that

You need to know what you want first.

Dedicated drag car?

If you want it on the street and be able to turn a corner without the need of a football field size turning circle.

That car can't turn it goes in straight lines.

My 2c

i read all of this and all i got was, u wanna build an illegally modified car to race on the street like a moron and making the cops get tougher on modified cars. so why would anyone want to offer helpful advise so u can make our lives harder??

i also vote to move this thread as its not a build up or project.

I like the idea - go for it! I do have a different approach for you to consider. Graft the R32 shell onto the R35 floorpan... Not an impossible task.

Just look at the Nissan juke for inspiration as to what can be achieved. Good luck with it :-)

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
