Clints 32 GTR


Recommended Posts

Ok so long time between updates!

Went to the local cars and coffee and the skyline guys met up first, was surprised to see so many 32 GTR's in Hobart

Was ready to take the wrap off so did a photoshoot with a local Photographer who specializes in cars, Mrs got a big one framed for me :)16409803_1414013941942146_1002064289_o.thumb.jpg.8ddd8ddd878274bd8e2032870bceb132.jpg16252263_1407283092615231_2726634760782535675_o.thumb.jpg.b17f564a267a3d5c307c9446bda52599.jpg

And then the wrap came off!

Still kept the road trips up about the place.

More recently I got a set of GKTech adjustable arms for the rear, also got their new front upper arm but yet to fit.

I finally found a set of side skirts that I like, I never liked how the stock skirts are not all that much lower then the sills and the front bumper is alot lower, these are JSAI "TBO Style" and sit the same height as the front bumper lip, also got a pair of their rear pods. had to set up a temporary spray booth in one of my sheds, worked OK but still got alot of shit in the paint, miss my old booth.

Not had a chance to get out and get some good pics with the skirts/pods but here is one out front of the workshop

So I passed pits again and got the GTR registered in Tassy, so now I can start removing some of the standard parts.

Im running a Haltech which uses a mix of speed density/alpha N(TPS) which means I do not need the Air flow meters so decided to make some new stainless pipes and delete the MAF's

I do plan to do the intercooler to manifold pipe so it matches.

I also made up some new radiator mounts

But decided to try out another pair anodized in red. Think I like it much better and ties into the body color.

Ive also picked up a pair of near new -7's to replace the stock turbos so I can turn the boost up abit!  as well as some adjustable cam gears to dial in some more down low power. But I need to replace the clutch first as the current one already slips if you dump the clutch!

Think I need a better radiator also as it gets abit hot when going up hills and you can hear it boiling after I shut the engine down sometimes.
