this is the reason we have more than one child right?

Tis but a scratch....

have you rotated the car yet? if so how smooth was it?

yeah the south island is stunning, the wifes family is from the west coast down there so we were down there for christmas. a high 10 would be a stretch but hilarious if it happened. fourth gear is its party gear, i don't have traction to throw more at it at lower speeds. I've found passengers don't think its that fast, i think it's because it has a digital dash so they can't see the needle move so they have no sense of speed

its Masterton Motorplex just over the hill out of wellington.

Latest round of updates on the car. I purchased and installed a SWS clutch slipper to help with 60ft times and got some second-hand good condition 275/40R17 Hoosier DR2 radials. Test and tune in November showed the tyres were an upgrade over my over 15 year old mickey Thompson's and I got a 1.8 second 60ft and pb et of 11.71 but even then, that run wasn't great due to rain and driver error (the event got called off 10 minutes later fast forward to the weekend just gone 25th of Jan and there was finally a break in the weather to let racing happen. The first run the track was slippery and only managed a 12.1@129 Second run the track was better and got a new pb et and mph: 11.54@131 Lith and I then worked out that I installed the previously mentioned clutch slipper incorrectly and its never been working, and I had just been dumping the clutch the entire time, we also noticed it was on street boost and not race boost. So I lined up for a third run with the car turned up in the first two gears, but the passengers side axle objected to clutch dumps and left the chat which stopped my weekend. so there will be another attempt in the future once I replace the tyres as they rubbed and are stuffed now. but a low 11 should be on the cards.

it'll be fine.....

at the very least you could use it as a mobile diving platform at the pool

did you go to the us gtr festival? any progress on getting the car back out and running?

thanks Roy, i did look into z32 front knuckles but saw it was a ballache so didn't bother. my local nissan parts dealer says he has a R32 ABS gts front knuckle, so i'm going to investigate that and see what it is.

Thanks Komdotkom, I would take you up on that offer, but the cost of shipping to NZ would be horrible.

Sweet thanks mate, I did wonder if its easier to try and find a R33 knuckle and make that fit, is it just a case of changing the lower ball joint? I'm getting drive wheel speed off the gearbox speed sensor which is fine so far to 230kph

Hi People, has anyone come up with a way of getting non-driven wheel speed on a R32 Gts/gtst? from what i've seen the RWD R32 didn't look to come with ABS, if they did i can't find a rwd ABS front knuckle anywhere. is it a case of putting a S14/R33 front knuckle on and then modifying the ASB ring to suit a ECU input frequency limit? or have people managed to get a hall sensor onto the back of the hub and pick up the wheel studs? i've searched but there isn't anything that I could find.

Thanks, its a distance car lol, good from far, but far from good

thanks the engine use to really labour when the fan kicked in, but after getting the alternator and voltage issues sorted its fine now. i haven't driven the car in the summer with the shroud in, but it doesn't go over 93 when driving and at idle the fan keeps it at no more then 90. I'm running a Vipec i88 which is Linkecu's old motorsport ecu, its identical to a g4+ xtreme. but if i go 8HP i'll swap to a Maxxecu race series
