I’ve done a search and couldn’t really find anything on the maximum gear speeds of an R32 skyline. I'm interested in the top speed achievable for a stock Skyline R32 in 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th gear. All input would be appreciated

Thanks in advance :cheers:

This is for a GTR, but 1st can get 60, 2nd 120, 3rd 160, but have had at 180 a couple of times and 4th has been to 230, haven't found top speed for 5th.  :Bang:

60 in 1st for a GTR??

thought it was more..

If you look in my 'Photo's' section, there is a few roadtests in there which has maximum speeds in gears :cheers:

The facts are all here :(

1st.....71kmh.....8000rpm

2nd....118kmh...8000rpm

3rd.....175kmh...8000rpm

4th.....228kmh...8000rpm

5th.....235kmh...6200rpm

(Will run to 300 in 5th with enough road and power)

PSI_GTSII was your car close to stock when you got these resalts. Reason im asking is my car is completely stock, minus the pod which does shit all because it isn’t shielded and the maximum speed i can reach in first gear is 50-55km/h. I'm worried that my clutch is beginning to start slipping and i may need a new one.

Thanks for all the help so far :P

Im assuming u have a GTST from your AVATAR.

If so, 50-55 is pretty normal.

Those figures you quoted are for a GTR.

If you have a GTR......somethings wrong LoL

Yeah i have a GTST, glad to hear thats normal. It seems the car after 5000rpm just fly to 7000rpm since i dont push it to red line, i change just before and only gains an extra 5km/h over the 2000rmp difference.

      GOT SUM's RB34

      By klutched · Posted

      Got some decent progress after work yesterday and also today. Got the ECU all wired and passenger side interior all back together. Kept the wiring up nice and high to avoid people standing on it. Got the surge tank relays rewired and tidied up the pump wiring and cut a hole to bring the cables through.  I found a spare USB cable I had lying around so I decided to cut it up and see if I could use it for my CAN 1 bus. Turned out one of the pins I needed was to the shield of the cable so i cut it up and desoldered it and resoldered to the correct pins.  Had the issue with the powersteering hose hitting the A/C compressor and fan shroud. I pulled the bracket off and modified it to remove the front mounting point which now clears it all. Will keep an eye on it to see if theres any signs of fouling once it's up and running.

      So today I went well outside my comfort zone (again) to replace my valve cover gasket.  I have had a big leak over the exhaust leading to a lot of smoke and smell every time I drove it. The leak was in the rear driver's corner.  The job wasn't hard as such, just a bit finicky and time consuming.  The old gasket was rock hard and broken right where the leak was.  The leaky corner had so much sitting oil in it.  The good news to my amateur eyes was no buildup or sludge under the cover. It all looked fairly nice in there.   I haven't started it yet. I ran out of light and body when putting the coils and injector loom back in. Probs only 30min left for the morning.  I was so nervous putting the cover back on, I must have lifted it 5 times to make sure the gasket was still seated properly. God it's going to be nice to be leak free and not make other traffic light queuers think my car is about to explode.

      Gave the Mazda it's first wash, it will need some clay, a light compound, and polish polish to remove a few swirl marks, but that will be a job for when I have a full day to get my DA polisher action on

      Just did this job on my 32 with the boost doc kit. was quite simple to fit, hardest part was getting the rubber bungs back on the firewall. does anyone know how the heater will work now without the flap in the bend? Will I just have a heater on 24/7 now?
