Are you after the power sterring oil cooler as I have never seen or heard of a r32 gtr with a factory engine oil cooler out the front unless it is the one on the side of the engine your after as I have one.

My ex just got the fine from afl grand final day on eastlink so they are coming just months late. Not the few weeks they tell you over the phone.

Cheers guys. After thinking about it it was a little unrealistic to think they would stop it. Ended up picking up some double glazed windows I bought so didn't make it anyway. Would have been good to get there though.

Just spoke to my folks and Mun just got home from work as a nurse. She said she was told that StKilda festival has been cancelled as of a couple of hours ago due to the lack of ambulances and available hostpital beds. I was thinking about heading in to see Tex but won't bother if its not on tonight and I don't know anybody who is there. Their web site says nothing. Part of festivals requirements is they require a certain amount of ambulances/paramadics per so many people I believe to get the permits to operate. Just had me wondering as alll I saw when driving back on the Hume last night which I got detoured around the fires was ambo after ambo heading up to help out the pore buggers at the fires. Can anybody let me know if they know.

R32 Gtr Suspension
Rowdyr32 replied to LotusGTR's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
Haven't had the car on the road for a year now as I have been over it a little and there is more fun to be had for less $ like bikes and boats. Just need to put it back together now as I stole some bits for my other gtr. I can take him for a ride but there is no where near my house to give it a bit or any good corners to throw it around. The track or DECA is the best place to show how it goes. -
R32 Gtr Suspension

No need to go over the top for a mainly street car and waste massive amounts of money on something you will never use to its full potential and you need somebody else to set it up for you because there a thousands of combinations you can use. Some V8 drivers use shocks like Benno at racepace to fine tune their cars whereas other V8 drivers setup their cars using swaybars. Its personally choice. Setting up off swaybars and ride height is a hell of a lot cheaper. A set of correctly valved bilstiens are cheap and should do the job. Its all I have in my car with 7kg/mm in the front and 5kg/mm in the rear. Don't need to be a scientist to work out those rates as everybody pretty much runs around that rate. I don't have super power and am hoping to run so good times for 280utag or whatever it is grip rated tyres. I'm finance limited to the amount of track time I can get. I also have my front toe and rear camber set by myself with no measuring equiptment as the tyre place didn't get it quite correct so I guessed it. At DECA I can sometimes beat and most of the time go within 1 second of Snowman and Scotsman on Motocarna type events if I don't make mistakes but they kick my ass on the circuit due to there power/tyres and brakes. Just goes to show big $ susp isn't the main thing. Experience and feel for your car are the best things to make yourself go faster so the $2000 or more you save on lower spec susp you can spend on 5 more track days that will make you a better driver and know how to control a car. Just my 2 cents. Big $ bling bits are cool but I bet 95% of the people who have it don't know how to set it up themslves which is what I believe is part of motorsport. Knowing how to make a car go faster yourself and understand why, not just cheque book racing and taking your car to a workshop every time something doesn't feel right or you don't get the time you want. Once your car is setup and you learn to drive around it the way it is you will rarely ever need to touch the susp for different tracks. Call me and I can give you a few pointers. I am by no means a super driver but have set my car up on a budget and belive it is pretty good for the $ spent and never been to a workshop apart from the first wheel alignment which was just a local tyre dealer set to my specs. -
Best cheap upgrade you can do. Got mine from uas.

R32 Gtr & Gtst Parts In Melb
Rowdyr32 replied to Rowdyr32's topic in For Sale (Private Car Parts and Accessories)
I've been away for a few days. The Teins are fine and would pass any inspection easily. I can post them. The gtr guard is sold and a gtst indicator won't fit them. Jenno call me in the afternoon when you can come that afternoon like I have told you many times. I have a lot on atm and can't plan to far ahead due to things changing. The 26 bottom end had a cracked no6 ring land. I sold the block to a guy on here who had it machined only to find it is crack through on head bolt hole to a water jacket. His engine builder said it would still be fine for a stock motor but not for the 800hp motor he was building. No bore damage at all. -

Rowdyr32 replied to ashr32's topic in For Sale (Private Car Parts and Accessories)
For $5 all up you can make them out of ceramic resistors at Jaycar. Just need to know the resistance. Can't remember off the top of my head. Ran them in my Rb26 gtst for years. -

Rowdyr32 replied to Rowdyr32's topic in For Sale (Private Car Parts and Accessories)
Bris I'll keep you updated. I know if I sell it I'll be dissappointed. Just like the bonnet if it goes. Would like to free up some cash for other things like the boat I just bought to fish and wakeboard which in 3 weeks has been used more than my car in a year. Haven't driven the GTR in prob 10 months now so really need to organise where my cash is tied up. Shy s6 - No other parts atm other than whats listed. -

Russ gtr and gtst radiators are exactly the same. You could try one of the to see if the car runs cooler as yours maybe a little blocked and if it works pay for it or just give it back. Could change it at mine in an hour. Don't know when I'm home. In and out a bit. I'll pm you my number. The bonnet seem to keep the temps down. I made about 290rwkw a while ago and still had no problems on the track with std radiator. The bonnet requires the gtr bonnet latch as its on a gtr.
