R32 Gtr Long Term Love, Now Project

[Piggaz]

They look familiar ?

[r32-25t]

Can't imagine why ?

[r32-25t]

ready to go on the engine 

and the first one in the car 

[r32-25t]

I also decided to get rid of the airflow meters,no because I think they're a restriction but just cause I could

so I got the hks adapters and here they are in the car, I forgot to take a photo out of the car 

[Piggaz]

Them too!

[r32-25t]

Lol

Reason for the front bar coming off was fitting a new intercoolerwhich is a plazmaman pro series with the 76mm core because I didn't want to modify the front bar to fit it

quick photo of new and old next to each other, i didn't realize how much bigger it was till I did this 

[r32-25t]

So for what I thought was a bolt in intercooler took a lot longer to actually get on the car, the quality and mounting points were perfect but due to the extra width I had to undo the bumper support and move it out of the way and slide it all in togetherand how close it is to the front support with it all fitted again

I also got rid of the factory rubber pipes and replaced them with hks onesI didn't get and photos of them before putting the front bar on

[r32-25t]

Speaking of getting the front bar on that was a nightmare, I knew the r32 had less room in the front but I didnt know it was this much less.

Because I wanted to keep the factory mesh in there i had to trial fit the front bar and bend the mesh and try again, this happened about 6 times to finally get it right but was worth the effort 

It's stock sir I swear

[r32-25t]

I also plumbed and the vcam and ran the wiring into the cabin and fired it up

you can also see the hks pipes in the engine bay

[Robzilla32]

That looks awesome. Good to see that it all fits with the factory mesh too.

[r32-25t]

Thanks mate, for me the keeping the mesh was important and was happy when it finally slipped on

Shinnnnnnnnnnay!

Too much Subaru in this Nissan. Take it off!

[r32-25t]

Didn't update this last week cause all I did was the wire the vcam and flex sensor into the ecu, plug the wide band controller into the ecu and ran the wire to the boot to switch the second fuel pump 

[r32-25t]

But this week I was a little more constructive first took the discs off and sent them out to be machined

back from machining and got some upgraded pads to fit as welland all fitted 

[r32-25t]

Also grabbed some braided lines and fitted them didnt get a photo before I put them on but you can see it there 

also fitted a brand new r33 gtr master cylinder and replaced all the brake fluid,

turns out the plug for the fail light is different between 32 and 33 so will go to Nissan and see if they can supply a plug and pins set

[r32-25t]

Got a delivery the other day from Japan of corse and he first thing out of the box is an ard 150amp alternator, the original was only charging at 12.3v so with the extra load was only going to get worse 

[r32-25t]

Didn't get photos of it installed before I refitted everything including the radiator and coolant then I rechecked the running voltage and I won't need to worry about it again
