Hi guys new here from Texas. A good friend of mine importated A R32 GTR for me and restored it. I'm taking delivery this Friday pretty excited been waiting 4 months for the car.

I completely raided his spare parts bin when he re did the car. 

HKS down pipes 

HKS mid pipes 

test pipe to HKS hi power 

hks intercooler piping and full greedy intake don't remember the full name for it but the kit that replaces all the piping.

I also ordered a set of 18x10 Work meisters for it as well as a ARC intercooler and Augusta coil overs.  He also threw in a set of R34 turbos so I'm gonna have them rebuilt to N1 spec and pick up a set of tomei extreme manifolds to mate them up with. Power wise looking to make around 450hp to the wheels I know I'm gonna need alittle more then what I have so far but it's a good start. I've been reading through the forum for months before I joined so pretty excited to get the car and start getting into it. I've wanted a GTR since the OG Grand tursmio days but as you all know we just started being able to legally own them.

Thank you lol my buddy pushed me into them

lol I must have spent weeks trying to figure out if they would fit before I bought them. I had the fenders and quarters rolled before they painted the car plan on running 265/35 Nitto 555Rs. I plan on hitting up the used parts thread soon. Need to track down fuel upgrades and tunning.

ordering parts from RHDjapan is killing I've been waiting for the coil overs and ARC intercooler to ship for a month plus now

18x10 should fit fine provided they're > +12 or so - 265 is pretty lenient on x10 :P

And yeah you bloody yanks pushing up prices haha

They are 18x10 +14 with 4 inch lips

      Unpeeling the Orange

      Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out

      Talk about noisy. Even when I still had the Tomei under the car I could distinctly hear the tires rolling. And I doubt I ever will need maximum grip like on a track. My GTR will maybe never even see the 600hp mark and I need to get used to the car quite a bit before challenging the limits of its handling. For the next winter storage I think I will get a set of these rubber drive-on thingies that have a tire shaped base. Those supposedly really help prevent flat spots.

      Well our climate is definitely way less hot overall and the weather can be quite picky at times. I just know that during normal road use or even spirited drives there is no way I'd be able to consistently stay in the operating temperature, and constantly changing the tire pressure would also be a royal pain.

      Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.

      For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
