I am going to be doing a few things to my R32 GTST very soon including a full respray. I am a little torn on which colour to go for, but I have narrowed it down to 3 choices.

All of these colours are HOT and I would be happy with all of them. I am at the point where I am trying to think which would be the best colour for resale...

R33 GTR v-Spec Purple (LV4)

I love this colour... However, it doesn't look that great when it's not out in the sun and will probably show paint swirls and scratches alot more... It's not as "Look at Me" as the other 2 either....

R34GTR BaySide Blue

Classic colour... I love it. Look so good when it's clean.

purple for sure...... hows the car going now paul?

still waiting for those pics haha!

Hi Darren,

The car is going great. Still haven't had the squeaking noise at the front done, as I was going to have this done when I put in the RB25DET. I know what it is though, so I'm not too fussed!

Pretty much have the body sorted out - just need to get a GTR front bar support, and rear pods, then I'm on the home straight.

I am sick of waiting for the RB25DET to arrive so I am just going to put on an R33 Series 2 or R34 turbo on, and maybe do the RB25DET in the future....

I am currently waiting on a price for paint for Midnight Purple 3.....

If the paint comes through then I will stop lloking for an engine and go from there...

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
