Hi all,

A few guys on here might know me in person or seen me around, I'm Ricardo from Texas originally moved to Aus back in 2013. Searched for about 7 months and bought my 32 GTR and have enjoyed every second of it so far. Its complete bone stock and I've been adding my own touches to it with the hopes of building a 380-430 awkw weekend cruise/track day car. The end goal is to be able to participate in the WTAC club sprint and have some fun. For now im just really enjoying the car for what it is. ( even if its slow as snails right now haha ) I'll attach some photos from when i bought it to its current state. Don't get your hopes up it hasn't changed too drastically haha. I'm also getting into editing videos and mash ups so if you see me out with my gopro strapped to the car say hi!

Basic mods done, oil cooler and filter relocation and changed cold side gaskets to tomei metal gaskets. Replaced Fuel filter, Deleted Hicas from the rear to the front ( using threads in here, thanks!), replaced injectors with new standard injectors, A/C re-gassed, blue tooth radio installed with new 6x9 in the front doors on MDF boards i made, LED tail lights as seen below and Digital triple cluster ( because american and Fahrenheit + PSI haha) car alarm, and last but not least i removed the stock exhaust and put in a 3 in cat-back.

Here are a couple short videos i've slapped together, its also my channel. Feel free to sub.

      Leaking Rear Subframe Bushing?

      Perfect, I'll get to it this winter then at the same time as I weld on my anti squat kit.

      R32 only blows hot air

      By SeanR32GtSt · Posted

      Alright so my 32 only has one temperature no matter what degree you set it to. I’ve tried disconnecting the servo motor arm and moving it either direction and got no change. I’ve fixed the leak in my AC and re charged it and with it on and clutch engaged it still blows hot even though the low pressure pipe going to the firewall is ice cold. Both heater core hoses are hot while running as well. Diagnostic code showed 24 for intake air temperature sensor. Anybody got any ideas?

      Does RB25DE Neo lower intake work with RB25DET Neo Upper intake manifold?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I said Garrett style. Not Garrett genuine. And something in the G30 550 range is what you want. Not those pokey little old fashioned T28 sized things. The intake ports in the head are small. There is little benefit in fattening up the runners and leaving ths actual ports small. Just run what you've got. And on the subject of Nistune vs Haltech etc..... You know you can control the transmission with decent standalone ECUs these days, right? No need to keep any of that old Nissan bullshit. Don't get me wrong - I use Nistune on my Neo. But it is a DET, so the number of bodges and workarounds I had to do to make it work in a chassis without ABS, TCS, etc, is quite small compared to the herniated arsehole you will have trying to make it work on a motor that doesn't have some of the things that the turbo ECU wants to see. Just easier to bite the bullet and go aftermarket outright.

      Hmm. Only when the f**king thing is actually working. Still can't find the leak. And that's with dye being put in the last 3 times!
