Heya Fellas.

Ok there are alot of people with R32 GTRs on the forum and I wanted to know your thoughts on the factory R32 GTR rear wing ... on or off ?

Also I have been asking alot of people about BOVs for the RB26 and I keep getting mixed answers. Do really I need to buy 2 Bovs or can I just fit 1.

Thanks guys,

D

Daaaamn! Thanks guys, I will leave it on yeah I guess thats what really makes the Gtr look.

and about the Bovs well I can leave the stocks on I guess but a friend is getting rid of his HKS Sequential Bov and wants like $150 its in good nick.. just wondering if I can use just one or not.

Also does anyone know of any nice skirts and rear pods to fit the R32 GTR. oh and not too hard to find in Oz.?? I'm thinking of getting some from "carmate" for $550 I thought that was cheap is it?

I wouldn't replace the twin factory BOVs with one HKS one. The GTR HKS kit has two BOVs. if you want them just get that. The only GTR kit i've seen with just one is the trust Type R kit and that is one BIG BOV.

It all dpends if the car is going to be kept near stock,

i have seen a couple o "autostyle" cars with the wing removed and just the nismo lip thats looks nuts but i reckon then you need to have buig dished wheels and the car pretty low

my 2 cents

there is no doubt that the rear wing needs to be removed and a nismo lip fitted. Definetly larger aftermarket wheels, (18inch BBS LM wheels look AWSOME!!)

There are a few 450+ rwkw GTR's going around melb with standard 33 GTR BOV's. They work fine, no leakage (and they are STANDARD EQUIPMENT which helps get around defect issues)

I am having the boot holes deleted and fitting a new nismo-tyle lip spoiler.  

This is my car before it was shipped to Aus and before the damage to it:

is the lip you have on it now a geunine GTR one that can be fitted along with the OEM spoiler ?

    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
