    R32 bonnet

    I’m chasing a decent bonnet for an r32 gtr. call or sms 0438 600 350
  2. is the original diff up for grabs. i need standar r33 non vspec diff to suit series 3
  3. After what feels like a lifetime my gtr is nearing completion. attached are pics of the build. rwkw exceeded 330kw at 12 pound of boost with recent dyno tune however Throttle position sensor was faulty and dyno tune subsequently aborted. I managed to find the only new tps switch in aus and she's back on the dyno tommorrow and we should no doubt see more than 400 at the wheels on modest boost. it had 280kw at 9 pounds It seems every sensor this car had has gone faulty, i have now had to replace, 02 sensor, all the wheel sensors and im now up to my third cam sensor(brand newy on the way) I 'm no expert and whilst i have had many doubts over the direction the build was going over all this time, the team at JPC (johnsons performance centre) have truly exceeded all my expectations with the final product. I chose JPC because i have know them since i was 18 (i'm 36 now) and rememeber there cars been big news at the drag strip. They've always struck as very switched on and knowledgeable and most of all, you never feel they are taking advantage of you. Initially i did everything i could to gather parts and reduce the cost however everything i bought was ditched by JPC for something bigger/stronger/hardier and obviously better on sight alone, hence i eventually stopped throwing my two cents in and went with everything they said. Some of you may recognise the engine covers appearing an engine that was newly built and for sale on this forum several years ago, i was silly enough to pay upwards of 7k and buy that supposedly properly built engine. all that remains of that engine are the worlds most expensive timing gears and rocker covers, i had hoped all i would need to do was change cams and stick my sump on it - yeah right...... anyway car now sports the following: rb30 block (not o ringed) cp pistons and rings (NOT CHROME MOLLY) custom cams race ported head custom split pulse exhaust manifold Hypertune plenum (maintaining 6 throttle body set-up) JPC modified Garret TO4z Vipec v88 M&w ignition system Bosch 1000 cc injectors N1 oil pump with JPC's billet gears(this stops it breaking like everyone else's) JPC modified Hi-octane sump HKS fuel rail Garret 100mm intercooler race radiators radiator and thermo fan PPG dog box os giken triple plate clutch Quaife ATB front diff Battery now sits where left hand rear passenger once sat and there is a custom aluminium fuel tank in the boot. Used to be small but the guys welded on another section to make it more than 60litres and incorporated the surge tank into th bottom of it. Suspension is Bilstein, with various whitleline and cusco control arms etc front Upper contral arms are the "pivoting" UAS(unique auto sports) adjustable ones - might mate hearney reckons he'll never leave for a track day without them again. Brakes are AP 6 pots with Strap drive rotors at the front and Ap four pots at the rear. Abs and brake booster have been removed and Race brakes has reconfigured the braking system and fitted a balance bar. The guys at JPC, having worked with rb's since the 80's have obviously experienced oil control issues on RB's more than anyone. in this regards they seem to have taken no chances with the oil breather system/catch can set up. I think i counted about 5 tanks, it is also plumbed back to the sump and a set of Mine's baffles sit inside the rocker covers. (i would hope that should cover it). The factory loom has pretty much gone, what you seen was compiled by Al at Jpc. he seperated the attessa part and pretty much dumped everything else and made up a new loom from scratch to run the vipec/engine/lights. the Attessa part will be pretty much gone soon also but more on that later car is pretty much stock on the outside, i did buy all the window moulds brand new from nissan, including a set of rear quarter windows. I dont think i need to tell people how much this car has cost, you can probably figure it out yourselves, hence may as well make it look worthy of the cost, i hate ratty moulds/garnishes.
  4. I recently bought these wheels off this very forum, but have decided they are too rare and collectable for circuit use. They are still in their original boxes and wrapping with a full set of genuine nismo centre caps and lug nuts. They have never had a tyre fitted on them and have never been used for display. They are not restored....they are brand new. They are silver and have the correct Genuine stickers. They must be the only brand new set left in the whole the world. the price is $3900 Please call or sms for pics if required on 0438 600 350
  5. what vipec is it, v88, v44 or plug in. if v88, please ring me on 0438 600 350
  6. which vipec is it, there should be a model number/code like v88 or something
  7. hey mate, I need the exteranal moulds around the doors, that screw onto and between A and B pillar onto the shell and house the rubber. please ring or sms me on 0438 600 350 if you have them
  8. i am interested, please call me on 0438 600 350 or email [email protected]
  9. This might be a dumb question, but, are the wheels sold?
  10. hey mate, can you please ring me or send me your mobile number so i can call you. my number is 0438 600 350
  11. i dont think anyone has ever explained it that well, thanks, is a 2 way in the rear likely to cause understeer?
  12. on the track, when we are talking aboput rear diff, what is the BIG difference between 1.5way and 2 way, i here 2 ways are better for drifting but WHY? its easy to get my car into power oversteer out of tight corners, it a nice oversteer that is progressive and easy to control and it doesn't seem to snap back and is lots and lots of fun, but this gets through tyres real quick, which one helps the car hook up out of corners better and do either of them cause understeer
  13. Point 1: thanks for the reply, "quaife in the front, 2 way in the back it is", i wont have my manhood questioned. Point 2: i didnt know it was meant to take 3 days, i thought nobody like me, my bad, sorry
  14. thanks heaps everyone, must be something everyone keeps secret, so that settles it then, i'll work it myself.
  15. Is R32 TT's front quaife diff 1.5 way or 1 way? it appears to me the group buy is for 1.5way both front and rear
  16. just letting you know i have also pledged to join group buy re: front and rear quaife diff. on Uk forum

  17. just wanted you to know that i have put myself down for group buy of rear quaife diff to see if i can help make up the ten that is required

  18. I'm looking for feedback on whether to change rear LSD on r32 GTR to an aftermarket 1.5way or similar. Car will be used "exclusively" for circuit racing/track days etc. (not road registered) from what i've seen, its generally agreed front diff should be upgraded to 1 way or 1.5way of some sort, but it seems lots of people leave the rear standard. I'm thinking of changing the front to quaife 1.5way and whilst i'm at it, would like to know if this is a bad idea. But Mainly, has anyone changed the rear LSD to nismo/cusco/kazz and if so was it better?
  19. hey, i'm currently deciding on diffs for my r32 gtr which is currently in the build. it has ppg dog box and will have 400kw plus at the wheels. i was about to purchase a pair of nismo gt pro 1.5 ways for both front and rear when i came across your post re: quaife should i reconsider or stick with the nismo's
  20. woops, sorry, wrong kind of car/engine. please forgive me
  21. hey, will you consider selling the intake/plenum assembly along with the throttle bodies. most people wanting the engine will probably already have that part
