Wow!  This is first time I've seen another Scuderia R32 GTR...my brother has 001 and has had it for about 20yrs [emoji4] Do you have any other pics of your car?

 

 

 

I was reading up on your brothers one while looking for information for this one

 

I don't have any photos of the car however it is a factory TH1 but now painted blue...

 

Do you know much about theses cars?

 

 

 

There were only 6 Scuderia's sold...super rare :)

Being a low volume import, they were imported and complianced by Scuderia.

my brothers has a Scuderia compliance plate, Scuderia dash cluster and Scuderia boot badge...they were also fitted with the n1 boot and bonnet lip and the front bar snorkels.

I've read that 3 out of the 6 had been used for racing and the other 3 sold to high profile individuals (Mark Scaife, A porshe cup driver).
My friend and I are trying to work out who originaly owned this one.. Do you who owned your brothers one?

My brother bought the car off Paul, nice guy. He also runs and owns the wharfs down at Pyrmont.

 

Where did u hear that Paul was an owner of one of these Scuderia's?

 

Yes I did hear that Skaife owned another Scuderia as well, via paul.

Out of curiosity why are these a low volume import? Whats the history behind these particular 6 cars?


From what I can understand I am probably off a little. 6 32s were imported and sold as new with a bunch of goodies, N1 bits and stuff that came on the nissan adm 32s

3 had been sold for race use the other 3 had been sold to high ranking individuals..
001 - Paul Whitmarsh
002 - Mark Scaife (Aparrently)
003 - Unknown

I'm not entirely sure if he owned 002 or 003 tbh. He may have even owned 1 of the 3 race cars...ill speak to my brother and let u know. He is also on this forum but hasn't logged in years.
Did you end up speaking to your brother?

Number 004 just went up forsale so I'm back to hunting for more info

i didnt end up talking to my brother about it - i'll ask him to login & he can comment.

dark grey 004 - im not personally keen on the colour & it doesnt have the n1 kit fitted which apparently was stock on the scuderia - may have had the front bar changed hence no snorkels. no rear n1 boot lip as well?

how much do u think it will fetch?

    • I don't think the shuffle can damage the turbos. It only happens at low shaft speeds and loads. It's just annoying (to some people - others are tickled by the effect) and it quite possibly reduces spool performance a little bit.
    • Oh dear. The panel beating needs to be done before the filler work. Do you have a photo of the dent before you started? Hard enough to not flex and only hit the high spots?  What do you mean it was just temporary? 
    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly.
