hey guys well im new to this site and this is my 1st post!!!

i currently have a mitsubishi magna 2002..its pushing about 220hp atw.not bad for a n/a car..pretty good car too cos i have taken a fair few skylines at the lights...but not the highly modified ones..but only problem is that its not RWD :) ...

i have always liked the r32 turbo skyline and am looking to purchase one asap for the use of drift/drag(the usual)...but i have a few questions...

ohh and i have used the search key already,it answered most of my question but not all of them...

1.i have been told there are a few motors in the r32 range is this true..i only knew of the 2L one?if so what is the better motor..(not interested in the gtr,i know they are a different story)

2.i have had a 180sx sr20det and i got 300hp atw fairly easy(FMIC,new turbo,exhaust,power fc,coil overs,fual pump and injectors,more boost,plus a few other things) all this i got for about 3000k(uninstalled)...is it easy to do this with a r32skyline with this sort of money??

3.if i could only manage to get 250Rwhp,what should i expect to have as a 1/4 mile time?with my 180 i could score 12's fairly regularly...i would hope 13's in the r32 would be very doable..or am i dreaming?

thanks so much for any help guys.i look foward to seeing u all soon..

      Nismo GT Pro LSD configurations

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Well, the trouble with that ^^ is: The configuration shown is absolutely a 1-way, not a 1.5-way. There is no way that a 1.5-way can be said to offer LSD action only on acceleration. If Nismo cannot get that right, then it is impossible to believe their documentation. That ^ is not a 1.5 way setup. That is a 1-way.   And so now I have allowed all doubts to flourish and have gone back to look at the MotoIQ video. I originally made the mistake of believing him when he said "this is a 1.5-way" at the ~6:10 mark. Because what he did was take the gear assembly out of the 2-way opening and just rotate it one place to the left to drop it into the 1-way opening. When he dropped it in there, the cam was "backwards" compared to the correct orientation shown in all other photos of that config. The flat shold have been facing the 1° ramp side of the opening, not the 55° ramp side. And I thought, "gee that's cute", but I was concerned at the time, when he put the other ring back on, that the gap between the rings looked like it was wider then in the 2-way config. And then I said a lot of things in my long post on Tuesday that could only make sense if the guy from MotoIQ was correct about what he'd done. BUT... I have now done my homework. I grabbed a frame of the video with the 2-way config, and then grabbed another with the "1.5-way" config, snipped out the cam and opening of that frame and just pasted it direct on top of the 2-way config. I scaled it so that the triangular opening was almost exactly the same height in both. AND.... the gap between the plates is wider with the cam installed in the triangualr opening backwards. That is.... it cannot go together that way. There would be massive force on the plates all the time, if you could even reassemble it.  So, My statement on the matter? The Nismo diff is actually only a 2-way and 1-way. There is no 1.5-way option in it, regardless of what they say. Here's a photo of a real 1.5-way ramp opening from Cusco (along with the 1 way option). And the full set of 1 through 2 way options from their racing diff, which is not same-same as what we'd typically be using, but...the cams work the same. A little blurry, but it comes from this Cusco doc, which is quite helpful. AND.... Cusco do in fact do what I suggested would be sensible, which is to have rings that do 1 and 1.5, and 1.5 and 2. Separately.

      Well it wasn't as easy as I thought.... and it also wasn't in my original manual which I did end up finding. They discuss the process in the Nismo catalogue though and it requires slight machining. Page 145.  NISMO PARTS CATALOGUE 2020

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      I'm an idiot, my intercooler is rated for 1000hp. I had clicked on the wrong product. Knowing the delta P would be nice, but I'm doubtful I'll do it. Now as for an EMAP, that would be great and I'll get around to it eventually but from my findings in my last post, I'm considering a turbo swap now.
