(Sa) R32 Gtr Parts
niZmO_Man replied to skyline_r33_panda's topic in For Sale (Private Car Parts and Accessories)
Do you have the triangular trim pieces that covers the side mirrors (sits above the door card)? -
Two Sundays ago spotted THR34T on Milperra Rd. Last Sunday spotted an Infiniti M in Auburn lol

Sorry to bump an old topic, but some more real world experience for you all. The ATTESA on my car started going spastic, one rear tyre kept deflating. Now since it's my only car (daily), and the tyre wasn't repairable (sidewall puncture), I had no choice but to purchase two new tyres for the rear. Unfortunately, the only sizes available were 245/45/17 (I called around a bunch of tyre shops). The existing tyres are 245/40/17 (they came with the wheels). So now I have bigger rear tyres, ATTESSA is kicking in every time I hit a bump (Sydney roads are shit so front torque needle swings around a bit). I have to lift off every time, very annoying and concerning for the AWD. I regret changing the tyres. The rolling diameter difference is ~4% yet confuses the hell out of ATTESA. I'm looking to get a new set of tyres for my 34R wheels ASAP. Hopefully the ATTESSA isn't too bad by then. Good thing I cut down my driving by >50% (catching train to work now). Before when my car had the Factory wheels (225/50/16), no issues. With the R34 wheels 245/45/18 no issues, 255/35/18 no issues. tl;dr- Run same size tyres on your GT-R!

Ooops forgot to follow this topic. Thanks for the offer BWRGTR, I might have to take it up. I got a pair of AFMs from Brisbane (apparently they were R33 but has R32 written on them lol). Chucked them in this time last week, car ran awesomely. The frequency of the slight miss on idle was reduced, car ran smoothly and boosted to 12psi without issues. This morning, the problem reared its ugly head again! WTH!? Although the performance degredation wasn't as bad as before, it wasn't going past the 3/4 boost mark (~350mmHg) and hesitating/being lethargic. Shut the engine down at a set of traffic lights, fired it up and it ran good again. At least on my R31, I just wiggle the AFM plug a bit and it runs good lol. This car brings much electrical headaches. I'll have to look into doing a solder fix on possibly this or my old pair of AFMs and seeing how they go... Unless someone has a good pair of known fully working AFMs (BWRGTR?) hahaha. Cheers guys.
-
Cheers man. I did have a big suspicion that AFMs are at fault, just weird that after a few seconds of being off it runs fine again.
-
fatz doesn't have any spares atm I've done the AFM solder fix (which fixed up typical bad AFMs issue), but I think it's probably dying. I'll pull it off again and check them out. Cheers for the suggestions!
-
Yeah hesitates. Can't hear anything else though. With the vac leak, why does the issue always disappear if I shut the engine down and fire it up after 5-10 seconds? That thing stumps me. Friken car, just more problems (HICAS flicker issue still there as well, definitely electrical). I'll have to pull the crap off to fix exhaust leak anyway (not related as issue was present before the leak... I think).

Hey guys, I have a rather weird boosting issue with my car. Car would run/boost fine, then all of a sudden it would run weird and won't boost past 6psi. I shut the engine off for about 5 seconds, fire it up, runs fine, then after a while (5-30 minutes, no certain interval i.e. random), same weird issue. During this 'boosting problem' mode, as soon as the car goes above 0psi, it will surge and run rich. On overruns/shifting, it will dump fuel (exhaust makes cool popping noises). Shut engine off for 5 seconds > fire it up > runs fine. Sometimes it will run fine for over an hour. Sometimes it will happen after 5 minutes. This issue occurs when the car is warm. Perhaps AFM(s) is playing up, unable to afford a new pair of them unfortunately. Still doesn't explain why it won't boost past 6psi (or 350mmHg or 'halfway between 0 and 7' according to standard boost gauge). Any ideas/experience?

Do you have projectors headlights? On reflector headlamps they are very glary and you won't get a good spread. You're better off getting halogen 'blue power' or similar (I got Narva Arctic Plus 50 for the gf's Pulsar, lights are a lot better). Also the buzzing is because you have a cheap kit. Hell even a Kaixen kit isn't that great (4300K my arse, more like 3800K, takes two minutes to warm up) but doesn't buzz. If you have projectors, look at getting a $200 kit. TRS kit (from USA) have really short bulbs (good, better spread), but I've had issues with their bulbs not being white enough (their 4300K, they don't have 5000K unfortunately). Warm up time is decent (30s) and their kits are good quality. Cheap $50 ebay kit won't last long. I've had two sets of ballasts and one bulb die all within 6 months. Best kit I got was 4 years ago, $200 kit which someone from R31SC sourced, that kit lasted up until my dad blew all fuses and relays in my R31 (3 years of use).

R32 Gtr Nismo 260Km/h Dash Clutser
niZmO_Man replied to dmac_25's topic in For Sale (Private Car Parts and Accessories)
I remember seeing pictures of a 'genuine' Gunmetal Nismo R32 GT-R, it had the 260 km/h cluster (I have one too). Perhaps the 320 km/h ones came out later (post '92)? -
Spotted a gunmetal R32 GT-R at Macquarie Park this morning. And a while R32 GT-R cruising east on Elizabeth Drive, Liverpool this evening.

Bump, $12k. Not a cent lower . No swaps please, moving out and need the cash. Has 17" Volk SF Challenge now (needed new tyres). Another problem has reared its head though, rear turbo has a small leak (blown dump gasket it looks like). I'll try to get this fixed. Have brand new O2 sensors waiting to go in too.

Silver R32 GT-R going past Yennora 7Eleven last night

Can't send you PMs. More info? Not really interested in a VY, but hey doesn't hurt to see what's out there
-
Holy crap I've been busy. Will consider swap for something newer/more economical lol.

Bump, one more spot to fill
