  1. http://rapidshare.com/files/19157148/GOR07.zip.html Pics in zip here, maybe someone can be stuffed uploading the good ones Edit: If above not work; http://rapidshare.com/files/19172862/saugor07.zip.html
  2. I read somwhere, that common cause of starting problems is due to the engine being cold. Metal expands when its cold and this causes the compression in pistons to have leaks hence the poor idling? Seeing as R32 is an old engine, it would be worn and be more prone to leaking etc etc. Not sure how valid this theory is haha.

    Gtr Proto Is Here?

    Pics i found on ns.com, http://www.jrobbo.com/Pictures/MIMS_20070302/
  4. What Ray at ReCustoms said, was that the r32 smic had smaller inlet/outlet holes which would have restricted air flow. Also that the smic placed in was cleaned out whilst the 13yr old r32 smic would have been clogged up with crap. Edit; The car is running on stock boost, dont have any form of boost controller in car so its stock. Ray claimed that there was an increase of 0.5~ due to less restriction. Stock r32 boost is edit:10psi as indicated in the first graph
  5. sounds like my r32, it sorta struggles to start up and sometimes needs a press on the accel to get revs up. Not sure if its same prob

  7. Hello After a long think, i decided to go down the path of R34 Smic on the R32 as a suitable cooling upgrade. Some specs of the side mount intercoolers; --------------- R32 Length: 205mm Height: 190mm Width: 60mm Volume: 2337cm^3 R34 Length: 205mm Height: 220mm Width: 80mm Volume: 3608cm^3 Volume difference of 1271cm^3 Therefore; R34 smic is 54% larger than the R32 smic (relative to the r32 cooler) --------------- R34 has been stated by others to handle abour 230kw atw R34 intercooler was cleaned using Petrol and poured out until no black residue came out. --------------- The R34 smic was taken to ReCustoms (Victoria) for installation of smic into my r32. The R34 smic has a different outlet pipe (which makes it match up with r33 but not r32). Therefore another outlet pipe was welded on the other side to look similar to the stock r32 smic. Although this still did not make it a direct bolt-on replacement and the pipes needed to be customized slightly. Also the r34 duct was unable to fit and has no air duct (which wouldnt make a larger difference in power really) Ray from ReCustoms has kindly taken a few photos of the customization of the smic. Located 2nd Page ---------------- Dyno run was made before/after the smic installation; Mods are; apexi catback exhaust & apexi airpod. ---------------- Thanks goes to Ray from ReCustoms for the installation and patience Highly recommend him for any work on imports. Cheers - Patrick

    Water Restrictions

    Flemington racecourse is basically gambling. With high tax on gambling, the government wont touch crown casion, flem racecourse etc, as they bring in a load of revenue for the government. Restriction of water for them will be less revenue to the government. its all about teh money!!11
  9. didnt see the replies. It is only 1 hub. showbag i think there is no difference if its left or right. But there is a difference between front and rear which i didnt know and hence bought the wrong one. The original seller shipped it from WA to Victoria for $17. Hope that gives you guys an estimate of postage cost. Still available Give us a price as i'd like it gone.
  10. blamed for the individuals choice of using illegal mods? Thats like putting the blame on DragTag for publicly listing an event and cops defecting cars... At least what side of Victoria is this meet? south/east/north/west etc
  11. Spoke to another panel beater who paints in 2pak but does not bake. Says cut/polish can happen after 2 weeks.
  12. Just the Design Links + content is another story
  13. Okay well i think the website design is finished? http://www.XGenesis.net/sau/index.php Enjoy
  14. Had similar Probs with my r32. My aac valve was blocked and caused idle hunting and a real bad grumbling sound when car reved and fell back down to idle. Check O2 sensor as Paul advised. - Patrick
  15. The above is just a quote from the link i provided. I am not sure whether this is normal or not, although most r32's seem to have this problem. Would like to know the answer to this problem
  16. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...hesitating+cold the problem is in the ECU. it is nissans way of warming up the engine with minimal stress on the engine. it goes into rich and retarded mapping up until something like 3300rpm or until you put your foot down a bit more. do it next time you drive it cold, keep your foot at the same level and get to around 3300 and you will notice a sudden rush as the fuel and ignition maps have gone back to normal. it is completely normal
  17. mmm i think its a common problem for r32's. I remember reading a thread about it. Just let the car warm up whilst driving slowly and it should be fine
  18. So can we tie down Paul and perhaps leave him? Will make a show, not sure about dyno run as Im getting one tomorrow at Recustoms
  19. ahhh cool thanks for that. Yeah basically the car will be waxed a couple of days after the painting and was afraid the wax would prevent the paint curing, but this only affects acrylic as you mentioned. Cheers for all the help and I hope this thread has helped others - Patrick
  20. Thanks very much for the info Mike! Reason I ask is because I'd like my car to get a full detail but i am afraid that the detail may damage the freshly painted area's of the car. (spoiler, sideskirts, frontbar) So if its painted in 2pac enamel and given a week to cure, a full exterior detail will not cause any damage? (with a buffer) Cheers
  21. sure i could wait around a month and avoid any risks, but i would like to know if there is a reason to wait. After all, this could be just some old procedure which has now been eliminated due to the advancements of paint technology...
  22. Hey, Went to a detailer who used to own a panel beating shop and was telling me how he still paints small things. (sideskirts, front bar etc) He was telling me that you can cut/polish a new spray after 1hr of paint being applied due to the new style of paint being used. Enamel i think he referred to it as? He claimed that the old style acrylic is what needs to cure for over a month before it can be cut/polished/waxed. Does anyone have any information whether this is true or not? Ive always heard people say you need to give paint a couple of months before waxing etc etc Cheers - Patrick
  23. Sorry to bring up an old post Just got my r34 smic and cleaned it. Used Petrol to clean the inside and had plenty of good blackness coming out of the other side. Gave it a wash with water, the inside still smells like petrol..Would this cause any issues once its on the car? Will be getting it fitted on Wednesday with a dyno before/after fit to see the result Will keep you updated. Cheers
