hi all! just wanted to say hello again, I joined SAU 6 years ago but since then alot has happened and

I sold my Skyline R32, which I regretted.

Now i'm back with my fresh new import!

I've been wanting to get another R32 for a while, and found this 1993 GTS-T with genuine 67km on the clock!

It seems like it had a few minor mods like Greddy Strut brace, ARC super induction box, Sickspeed oil reservoir (still dont know what it does)

and aftermarket intercooler.

Look forward to making it a daily driver, not after ridiculous power, and want to leave the engine alone as much as possible.

I like a quick spooler.

planning on a Nistune + Z32 AFM upgrade with a HKS 2530 if I can find one..... but seems non existent these days,

If anyone has any sggestions, please let me know

get an alarm system, dash mat, and use a sun reflecta on your windscreen when parked up outside

you have a good dash pad so may as well keep it good, mine has just started to bubble in the vinyl and I'm pissed orf about it.

I dont think I will, its not like i'll boost unnecessarily in town,

I think turbo timers are rarely needed for a daily driver to be honest

Anyone have tints on their car?

I heard its pretty good for uv protection and heat minimization as well..?

I've read up on some articles and most will probably agree the rb engines don't have the greatest design when it comes to the reliability of cas.

What would be the most cost effective way of reducing this problem?

Would it be worth installing a trigger wheel of some sort?

The car starts fine when cold,

But when it's been driven for a while it seems to take longer to start thereafter, so hadouken suggested a possible cas issue.

I just wanna see if there are any options before I go out and buy a new cas that costs around $500 just to see it have problems in a year or two

Go post in the NZ forums and see if there is anyone near you how has an rb20 in good working order and is prepared to help you fault find. Then you can start swapping bits over in a process of elimination.

there's a fellow in the forced induction forum that sell his own design triggers, he's one option, but first have you to make sure that the cas is the fault.

    • Before I commit to it as I already have the wastegate off the car, would you change it to the 9psi spring instead of the 12, or whack it back on now and try your suggestion?   Edit: Actually I might just swap the spring and see what the logs say after another few pulls, as we know it's still spiking without the Mac valve in the picture so I need more data without the Mac valve trying to combat the issue.
    • Sounds good Hmm suppose the main thing is, how much do you care about this car? The filler doesn't make for a very good water barrier lol. If there was a tiny little bit of rust forming now, that in 3 to 5 years time becomes obvious under the paint (starts to bubble up), would it bother you? 
    • I already have the ability to datalog the voltage... what I can't do is correlate it to what the gauge is showing when I'm looking at the data at a later date. Or something like this. Except getting the oil to 125C+ involves me going 200+kmh at the track so you can imagine this is a little tricky unless I do something like note what the voltage is when I am at the top of 5th gear so I have a point to reference on. Drove car today. O2 still reading richer because hopefully not a leak instead of massive restriction I've introduced. Car really doesn't sound like a LS. It's quite strange. Pulled a bit of fuel out up top. This does potentially explain why my spark plugs looked like the car was running pretty over-rich. If I was tuning it to a ~12.7 which in reality was far richer than that in the past. It will be handy to have the dyno WB to compare my WB to to compare notes that's for sure. At this point I'm happy to just sit in the passenger seat and tune the thing given I've got about 7 million hours on the platform lol.
    • Yeah I understand you have to pay for an updated map or subscription service or something. But I can't even find a current map for Australia. My map is dated 2017, but didn't this car version still sell in Australia until 2021?   Also, just as an aside, the navigation system warns you of traffic incidences ahead.....why would they include that on a map they knew is not receiving live information. I am forever going to be warned of an incident that probably existed for 30 minutes 8 years ago.
