New seats, Recaro, Bride? My stock r32 seats are all torn up and horrible looking. Looking to order some Recaro or Bride reclinable seats. In Red! Which would everyone recommend? Also, most importantly. Which rails I would need to get to fit the seats. Preferably a part number to exactly what rail I need or where to order it. Thanks.

Is this the hkb boss kit that I need? http://www.ebay.com/itm/132000741989 or https://whiteheadperformance.com/product/hkb-steering-wheel-hub-boss-adapter-kit-hicas-only-on-115-nissan-300zx-z32-skyline-gt-r-r32-240sx-s13/ One is ON-110 and the second is ON-115 If not the HKB, what are better alternatives ? -
Help me diagnose high idle Cant figure out my idle issue. When I got the gtr, the issue already existed. So: Cold start idle: 1200 Warm idle: 1600 after driving for a while: 1800 While driving, between shifting, idle drops to 1000 than jumps back to 1800 in neutral. I pretty much closed the IAC valve and had minimum effect. I want to try everything else before I open the intake manifold and check if the film is there there. TIA!

R32 gtr FMIC kit?
powerdbygarrett replied to powerdbygarrett's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
Ive googled as much as I can. Everything I find says discontinued. I cant seem to find the greddy kit? Is there another kit I should be looking at? The car already has the hks hardpipe kit, so do I need just the intercooler or other parts as well? Anyone on the forum sells them? Ive went through the for sale section and everything thread seems to be from 2014 and earlier. Not trying to be an ass, I think its harder for me to find the right parts because I am in the states? Thanks in advance -
Personal Steering Wheel I want to upgrade to a Personal steering wheel on my r32 gtr. Is it direct replacement? Or do I need a hub? Anything Else? Thanks in advance

Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines
powerdbygarrett replied to Sydneykid's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
Guys please assist. Wheels and I just do not get along. Someone are good at it, I am not! My r32 gtr is lowered on hks hypermax coilovers. Currently sitting on 17's with a 225 tire. I want to purchase te37's preferably 18inch and be able to fit a wider tire. Nothing insanely aggressive, but proper looking. I want 18's because I will most likely be upgrading the calipers and need them to fit. the stock brakes are garbage. Also, no rubbing issues! Please suggest. Thanks I'm not a noob, promise. Just suck with wheels -
This is the way I purchased the car. I am not sure how the idle was with the previous owner. If the film has been cleaned off, what would be the solutution? The car seems pretty standard, not really modded. just basic stuff. I will check for vacuum leaks.

Glad to know that Mobile 1 is a good choice. I have a discount at a nissan dealership so I was hoping going OEM is not a horrible choice for filter. When you say worn, how worn are we talking about? The shifts are smooth, every so often I get I slight grind in 3rd but I think that is more related to the clutch than the transmission itself. At least for now this is going to be a stockish street car so I will give a lot of thought to the brake/clutch fluid Seems like this coolant hose replacement seems like a task and a half. Might wait for spring to do that. Hate working in the cold. Thank You!

Thanks for the info! I have not heard of penrite or ryco, I will do some research into it. I have used mobile 1 in my previous honda turbo builds? Would that be adequate? Redline and Motul I have used before. Glad to know these cars like them. Question on the fully synthetic, I was always under the impression that going synthetic in high mileage cars was not recommended, It will go through the seals and start leaking? I actually have a can of castrol gt34 laying in the garage for the blinker fluid. Glad we are on the same page with that one! Honestly I want to do it half properly at the moment, I am still not 100% if I want to keep the car. I am probably 70% yes. I want to get slightly more than basic maintenance done and get the car to drive strait than make the decision. New oils and fluids are a must! Once I pick out brands I will get to it next weekend. When you say "filters throughout" what other filters are there, other than oil and air? Is there an inside cabin air filter I should replace? What sparkplugs do you recommend? I should note that I was told by the seller that the car has upgraded R34 turbos. Coilpacks, CAS, and AFM are somewhat expensive, so I will wait on those until I decide if I keep the car. Brakes are extremely necessary along with new rotors and braided Lines. (The car doesn’t really want to stop. Was scary driving her home for 5 hours) Recommendations? You are correct, most people, especially that I know, "Rush to put shiny things on" before they have a good base to work with. Pulling the subframe I don’t mind, will keep me busy for a weekend. Do you have a link where I can buy the full rubbers kit? Will do this if I keep the car. Shocks are hks hypermax Coilovers all around; they feel in decent shape for now. Swaybars is something i am extremely interested in. I have read very good things about Cusco, but am open to suggestions. Is there a kit for all the coolant and heater hoses? Modding is third on list. Like I said earlier, a proper base is a must. As soon as I wash her tomorrow it will be pics galore!! Thanks again!!

Just Got My First R32 GTR! Maintenance?? HI everyone! Yesterday I brought home a 1990 R32 GTR. Couldn't be more excited as I have wanted this car since I was a kid. Finally they became legal here in the USA. The car is 118xxx KM on it. It has a few mods on it and more or less seems to have been taken care of by the previous owners. For my own sanity I would like to swap all the fluids and do some slight maintenance : Motor Oil , transmission Fluid, Clutch Fluid, Brake Fluid, Coolant Spark plugs (gap), Brake lines, Brakes, Blinker Fluid What does everyone recommend/Prefer? Thanks in advance!
