Hi guys. If you guys can remember I had built a r32 gts4 and crashed it some time back, and for those who have been following I got me a very clean r32 gtr that was garage kept for a little while like 8 years because the motor was blow. It was perfect. Me and a friend who has been coming around for a while from most projects started at it again. We decided to do a couple of things. First was to strip the existing chasis and paint everything. We were shocked at how clean the car was as we were doing so. And even went further with the painting and the inspection of components. We took everthing out the engine bay box and all strip the under carage and moved on to take the rear bumper off and strip the trunk clean. Painted and clear coated the whole thing with matching silver paint. In my head it was mostly for protection reasons as the car didnt seem to even have one ounce of rust. We decided to start amd swap the motor into this new body. And if you can remember the motor was fully built and good for around 800hp easily, but im looking for only 600. A few things thats different this time was our custom intercooler, we will run a bit of NOS. ( not installed as yet) haltech PS2000 ecu. Bigger injectors and a total different fuel system including an accusump setup with 3 bosch 044 pump with cell and surge tank along with a fuel cooler. The system is a bit overkill but I may go with e85 a bit later. I also did a few custome parts of the car myself like gauge pod. Center switch console, chassis brace bar behind the two front seat. We are still working on the fuel system as we speak and keeping in mind that I will send this car to the states for a full tune as its for drag racing only. this time around we installed a front and rear lsd. Which I hope will not be a waist of money. I will also use a set of front and rear diffuser. Its by no means a full drag car but will be used for it only. At other times it will have to sit in my shops show room floor. Im waiting on my new rims also to arrive as Work takes like 3 months to have them built and shipped (Meisters S1 3 peace). I would like to say thanks to all the peopel that has supported me from day one to the ones that still do. Cheers mate.

:lol::lol::lol: kml. Mate I was thinking the same thing. I have a r33 gtr and that has to this day hold my position at the tracks. This r33 is screaming for fuel to do better. But it hasnt lost a race as yet. So I know hands down this 32 tuned right will deal with my problems and then get stored away. My r33 took down well tuned 600hp supras. But I feels im in for an awakening this year so im getting ready. Thanks you were a big help mate.

How much is it going to cost to take the car to a tuner? I know at least three tuners who go to the Islands and South Africa to tune cars and I am sure would travel to Miami if you have access to a dyno.!!

Well shipping cost will be around 1500 usd round trip. My only issue would be a tuner thats familiar with the PS2000. ecu. BUT the shipping may be cheaper as a new ship is being commissioned in the next month. That would be around 700 round trip. You can pm me there info and I can consider them. But if I had known that MY PS2000 was so Australia based I wouldn't have gotten it. See how much I love you guys engineering skills. :D

    • Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.
    • I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box 
    • So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.
    • Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo
