James 32 Gtr Build
jimbob32 replied to jimbob32's topic in Members Cars, Project Overhauls & Restorations
I know that precision make good quality turbos but iv been looking at the new hurricane series of T4 turbos from turbonetics and am happy with the price and overall quality, response and look of their turbos . I aim to hit in the high 300kw area power wise. and i know people will say with that setup it will be easy but iv never had a big powered Gtr and arnt sure what to exspect. all i know is it will be shit loads of fun cant wait to get this on the street -

hey guys iv been flat out at work getting the money organised for the bottom end work to go ahead. this week the block is off to get machined, the plenum is off to get polished and parts are starting to get ordered from the USA. I hav'nt had much time to work on the car but this weekend i did manage to spend a few hard but worthy hours stripping the front end down to where I want to start this build from. After 6L of degreaser and some serious scrubbing the engine bay looks amazingly clean . I was intending on painting the bay but probably wont bother, who knew that good paint was hiding under there Heres a few pics for you people -

Heres a few pics of the last motor i build turbocharged straight 6 ford Eb. I know its no skyline but this was a very basic engine to build . Its how I got the confidence to do all the work on the gtr32. looking at these pics you get the idea off how clean the gtr motor will look when its ready to drop back in . only it will be bigger and meaner -

Help My R32 Gtr Blew Oil Out The Air Filter And Exhaust :(
jimbob32 replied to jimbob32's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
ok so did a compression test and all 5 cylinders are good but i have zero comp in cylinder 1 guess the head has to come off to do a visual inspection . no good. iv been researching this issue and people say it could also be a broken exhaust valve that is stuck open thus the zero compression. has anyone else had this problem ? as i did hear a slight tick in the weeks leading up to this disaster but thought nothing of it . thanks james -
so here is the story , I have a gtr32 with hks gtss turbos , power fc full exhaust , tuned on 1 bar. took it for a spin and gave it max throttle from 2 to 3rd . drove it for about 2km after that pulled into my street and the idle started hunting. popped the hood and oil had blown out the pod filters and was blowing smoke like crazy . so I thought I had blown a turbo oil seal, changed the turbo's back to the stock set , cleaned out my induction pipes and intercooler basically degreased every part inside and out. started the car and the ilde was sort of stable , not hunting but ruff to rev and still blowing heaps of smoke . iv been told that all the oil that shot to the head came out the crank case vent and into the induction and out the exhaust thus the smoke. what people havnt told me is why this happened ? iv also been advised to change my spark plugs and to do a compression test , and to have a better go at getting the excess oil out of the cat and exhaust to stop the smoke. what are peoples thoughts any input would be great , thanks james .

hey people names James just want some feedback . Im going to go big single on my gtr 32 . the engine as far as i know is standard internals . I have a full exhaust , power Fc and apexi radiator. all I want to do is a basic bolt on big single and get it tuned for the street and engineers certificate. Whats the best size turbo for this application ? ill also be upgrading the injectors and fuel pump. do I have to run a oil and water cooled single turbo or can i run oil cooled and block off the coolant feed. regards James
