1989 R32 GTR

Blitz boost controller and turbo timer

Boost Guage

Nismo Dash

HKS Coilovers each corner

Twin plate clutch dunno wat brand though

Sent $7800 to japan for the car

$3700 to import broker for freight, customs and all that

$291 for compliancing

now just gotta license it, insure and respray

Flite, good price and very cheap..why?

My suggestion is before you spend all your money on painting etc, make sure the mechanicals are sound and you have fresh fluids, filters, belt, pump etc. That is do a major service on it.

Also get the compression test/cylinder leakage done to assess engine condition.

you may be in for a surprise, you may not.

Cheers

yeah ken first thing i did was change all the fluids and stuff. Once the paint is done i was looking to rebuild the engine anyway, i was down at hyperdrive yesterday to get a quote on that, the dude said he'ld call me when he had the quote ready. Also its in better condition than I thought it was gonna be in. In the pics i got the interior looks all stuffed up and the body looked much rougher than it is.

Long, Anthony Scali ( nd4spd) will probably be doing the rebuild on it as our resident engine building/head porting/wolf tuning guru.

I think if you ask anyone on here , they will tell you what his achievements are.

Compression/cylinder leakdown test on the GTR is $150.

Cheers

      That looks good, but I think you're going to need much beefier side skirts now.

      They are daft and there's a reason it never caught on. Steering feel? We don't need no stinking steering feel!

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I gotta pull you up on this. It's driving me crazy. A shutter is something that closes, like over a window or in a cmera. The word you want is shudder. That LSD is clearly f**ked. Take it to a diff shop and get it disassembled and examined by an expert. YOu might have plates welded together or something equally crazy.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Check the Nistune doco. There are a few assumptions being made here that might not be valid. I will list the things that occur to me: Base map. Base map for what? Base map for Z32? Then the cranking pulse width is probably wrong for an RB25. The extra 500cc of capacity might well be enough to prevent it from catching. Base map for RB25? I don't think you can load one of those into a Z32. You have to just make the settings correct for an RB25 in the Z32 base map. That is either K or the TIM to get the pulsewidth right. Loom. You bought a loom for an RB. And you plugged it into a Z32 ECU. Did you make sure that any iwre differences were swapped. From memory, there's at least a couple. And as per the others, I would suggest making sure that the fuel pressure is correct while cranking and that the injectors are actually flowing as expected. They really must come out and go on the bench, unless you do find that you have messed up as per above points. I would also suggest watching in Nistune to make sure that everything is reading correctly. That the correct binary flags are raised at the right time (like the crank signal), that there's no stupid values in K or TIM. That you have not got mismatched firmware for the ECU and/or a wrong image loaded.
