Hey Guys,

Im am about to get my engine detailed/painted, before i assemble it and was hoping you would have some photos of either your own engine bay or other hot looking ones.

So come on, dont be shy, show us your engine bay so I can get some idea's, because I spent half hour going through the SAU gallery and only found a few average photos.

:D

ive done it, it is an absolute **** of a job and i wish i didnt do it, bleeding hands and all the rest, i did cam covers, timing cover, coilpack cover, top half manifold, pretty much most shit, drop me a pm with your email ill give you more details and stuff, cant post pics coz there too large, i just put a low quality pic in my galleries

Looks good ylwgtr2, is that the factory red colour that GTR's have or custom?

What do you guys reckon, do the rb motors look better with the upper cam/timing cover on or left off, mine is a vvt engine?

Less chance of mincing fingers with it on, but what looks best?

Jolinator, send your pics to my email and ill host them for you.

Anyone else send them as well and ill host them up here.

LOL...i so love thsi pic, ive been posting it up everywhere:)

Im 90% sure the engine is fine, it was a coolant leak out of the heater hose that caused all the fuss....Last i checked, about 15 seconds earlier the water temp was fine, so im not expecting any engine probs.

So no plans other then getting it back on the road...if engine dies, well yeh some things may change, i dunno yet:(

    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
