  1. I hear ya. I'd probably get the parts i want for it, then wait till I have a few things to go on at once and just have it all done at the same time. if it didn't involve pulling the engine I'd do it myself. I've done intake mani on my Mustang and cams on the ZX2, but I'm not comfortable pulling a motor.
  2. I actually found his site last night and got lost in it, haha. It's got SO much information. Kind of makes me think that I should invent in a NISMO intake manifold just to help negate the lean #6. Since the engine has to be lifted for it to be put on it seems that it would be something that would be timed perfectly to also installing a better oil pump along with it.
  3. Thanks everyone. So it looks like my first steps will be basic maintenance/care, then supporting mods to help along a 707160-7 or GT-SS. I appreciate the help. Not sure if anyone is familiar with them but I plan on going to japaneseclassicsllc.com once I see they have a car in stock that I'm interested in. They are a lot closer to me than others shops and seem to do a good job at inspecting/cleaning/prepping the car. If anyone has any positive or negative feedback about them I'd love the input.
  4. Thanks. Yeah I'm sure they are asked a lot. i mostly had "ball park" areas of the answers I expect to hear. I just more want to think I'm not comprehending something wrong. :-) Would you say that if i get a GTR in good mechanical shape I should put clutch, clutches and full fluids change as the top items on my list? I know a 25yr old car can have a lot of small things wrong, but long as it's running mechanically sound I can worry about smaller things later. As for the turbos I was thinking (from my understanding) the N1/R33/R34 have basically the same turbos but with metal blades. My last car ran about a 12.6-.7@106MPH on street tires. I'd like to if possible get a bit quicker than that, but if not with out heavier work, then so be it. I don't spend much time at the track, I just like having fun on the way to work. I'd rather sink money into reliability and bulletproofing than crazy power. I'd rather my car can take 600HP and make only 300 while getting me to work every day than take 400 and making 370 while constantly having small things keep popping up. For example my Mustang had a built rear that would take 800HP. tranny that would take 600, and bottom end that would take 450, but I never pushed it past 330whp. It never let me down either until I had an accident.
  5. Hello. Since this place seemed so full of knowledge I decided to join. Hope us 'mericans are allowed! I'm looking into importing a R32 GTR and have a couple of questions that I've been trying to find info on I think I have found my answers but would love input to make sure I am correct. I'll cut to the chase and ask my questions. What is the most AWHP I can expect safely from the stock turbos and very mild modifications?(93 Octane) What can I expect if I upgrade to a turbo without ceramic blades? From a durability preventative maintenance POV what should I do/replace when I get it?(I assume at least the 25yo clutch) Whats some good basic/bang for buck handling recommendations? I'm not looking to make a track car, just something very fun I can drive about ever day while having fun and being comfortable. Thanks Everyone!
