rrrage interior looks clean as... good pickup.

Best thing for u to do would be justb to swap the position of the CD player and the TV around... very easy and should only take about half an hour. I had to do the same thing with the TV in Josies Soarter cause when u put it in park and the TVs out it wont go in properly.

as for wheels... on a black R32 the best is to go white with the stock wheels... white on black looks good.... black on black looks pox... and we wont even go into gold stock rims. at least the stock 32 rims look good... unlike those cheap nasty looking R33 rims... worst... ever.

cheers gojira ... will take that into account. we did some hard driving and braking while testing it out and the tires seemed okay, but i'll have a talk to the people that matter about it.

Yep... good idea. Mainly look on the sidewall at the treadwear, anything above 300 would concern me on a performance car.

Also just check, I think the tyres are mounted in the wrong rotation direction as well. :headspin:

Awesome rrrage!!!! Im looking for exactly the same thing, stock black 2 door 32gtst!

you said that you had to have it complied.. does that mean that the person that your buying it off only bought it in jp and landed it? I didn't realize ppl did that.

congratulations can't wait to see it sometime in the not too distand future.

which doesnt disprove the fact that STOCK R32 RIMS look shit in black on a black car.

The next calder night...want to stay away from Morwell. I cant punt a car sideways and wall are too close and too narrow and Morwell. So Calder seems the better bet at this stage:)

And i think a graphite colour with the std wheels looks bets. Black too dark, and white doesnt suit the style of the wheel. Or just spend the money on some King/Whitelien springs and the thin will look just fine and handle a bit better:)

      I've got a spare standard box sitting in the garage  I know it will come one day though, but it's driven pretty tamely on the four times a year it gets out...

      Big question… have you decided on a gearbox? Because it’s going to come… and a gearset ain’t going to do the job.    save your pennies 🤪

      Borg Warner EFR Series Turbo's V 2.0

      By Borci88 · Posted

      Thanks for the quick replies guys its appreciated. A small extension was welded onto the standard 6boost external gate pipe which you can see where the pipe goes from black to stainless just below and to the right of the rear housing in the first picture. Overall I would say the flow is pretty good other than 6boosts choice to come straight off the collector at a decent angle.. Not sure why I went with two valves, I originally replaced the stock twin bovs with the GFB when I had the twins on. When I purchased the EFR it came with the Turbosmart Kompact BOV so I figured that would be a better option than the stock EFR Bov. I don't believe the Turbosmart BOV is adjustable? When I get the spike and then sudden dip in boost pressure, the turbo speed does drop as well. Stock head size wise however I believe it has Neo Turbo springs and a Neo Turbo intake camshaft and an aftermarket exhaust camshaft in the vicinity of 260 degrees. We didn't try a different MAC valve, we tried two different ways of plumbing it and we also tried removing the mac valve entirely and just having the boost source from the turbo directly connected to the wastegate and it still spiked / dropped and exhibited the same behaviour. Standard R33 GTR 5 speed tansmission. I'm running a Haltech Elite 2500 and can provide some logs if you. I understand what you're saying in that it looks like an auto plot however no, it's still a manual and it just has a lot of torque down low, for all intents and purposes it's a very impressive street car. I've attached a photo of the quickbitz dyno plot which was when the only difference is I was running -5 twin turbos with a mac valve. As you can see theres a decent dip in AFRs between 125kmh and 135kmh. Our problem now is not that the AFRs are dropping, just the boost pressure is dropping, however it is evident in the same RPM range of the map, coincidentally or not.
