Hi all, hoping some of you guys can answer a few questions for me.

Firstly, has anyone found a reputable source for bodykits for 4 door R32 GTS-T's? Specifically Vertex style kits?

Secondly, has anyone tryed to fit R33 GTR factory wheels to their 4 door? I know the wheels physically fit, but I would like to confirm how much work in terms of guard flaring/rolling would be realistically required to accomodate these wheels on the 4 door - assuming the car is lowered 1.5-2 inches all around.

Thirdly, R32 GTR rear seats in a 4 door - possible or impossible?

Cheers,

Nick :rofl:

No worries Blitzeh :P

Try G-Force in syd, Avi Prasad is the bloke's name who runs it I think. He's on this forum, and I think he was looking at becoming a sponsor, dunno how he went with it. His website is http://www.jap.com.au in any case. The kits fit pretty well from the ones I've seen, and his prices are pretty damn good. The website has the coupe kit listed only, but I remember him mentioning the 4 door kit was in development last year, so it might be ready now.

Roll and flare of guards required in the front, might be able to get away with a roll only in the back. 4 Doors look tougher with flares all around anyways.

Possible, I've seen a few cars with em done... however the mounting positions don't line up exactly the same, some customising is required, and shutting the door is a little harder.

All possible... A group called Panteraftermarket (www.pantheraftermarket.com) do Vertex bodykits for 4 doors. Or Adrenalin Autosports as well, located in Sydney and Queensland respectively.

R33 GTR wheels will fit. Depending on your ride height, you might have to roll the guards, namely the rears. I had too.

And I also have an R32 GTR seat in my car... fit like a glove.

p.s Are you stalking me?? haha :rofl:

what are the offsets of R33 gtr rims?

ive got 18x9 +30 on the back of mine and they fit without any modifications. and my car is quite low... can just see the top of the tyre under the guard.

are the leather gts-t seats different to other gts-t and gtr seats? cos i tried puttin my mates leather seats in my car (cos mine where out and people needed to be driven places) and the backrest was too short

how do u roll the rears when theres no real guard to roll? theres like 2cm of panel that goers around the wheel

I had it done from group in richmond, just normal guard rolling machine. $50 a corner. It's not all the way round, they just rolled where the tyre would sit and a small surrounding area.

Heres an update for you all.

I have fitted R33 GTR wheels without a problem, mind you the car isnt lowered as yet, however the wheels have advan 225's which are undersized for these rims on a GTR, but work well for this application.

GTST: I had R32 GTR wheels on the car previously and noticed a bit of rub on turn, but havent as yet with the 33 GTR wheels - odd.

For some reason im really keen on the 4 door now and its my new project - so the hunt for parts continues!

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Right, its been a while for updating this car, but I made some small but important progress today. In the end I bought an Ecutek dongle from the Australian distributor Tunehouse (for local hardware support) but have gone with a remote tune from Racebox in the US (because they have done millions of these, and I could not find any tuner where I could access the tune anyway as they are all password locked). The App is reasonably easy to work with, but the PC software reminds me of Haltech's ECU Manager that you need to use with the Plat Pro ECUs, it is a nightmare.  Anyway, I sent the details over, got back a tune file and a request for data logs. I finally got a chance to access a private test track today as they want redline logs in 3rd and 4th, and have sent them back for the first round of reviews. The main difference in the tune is going from 1.0 (stock) to 1.3 bar (19psi), although I'm sure is a lot of other stuff in the background. Keeping in mind this is a dead stock car with 125,000klm, this is what the App's performance test claimed: Before After Interesting to note that both 400m tests had the same terminal speed (158klm/h) but different ETs. And no, the speed limiter seems to be higher than that at 186kl/h. Summary of the key logged parameters for the 3rd and 4th gear runs were: Those little turbos were certainly whizzing at 200,000rpm+.  Also I'm really not that excited about oil pressure 55psi at redline so I think I'll go thicker than 5w30 (nissan recommend 0w20....) and see if that improves it. Other than that (and the big boost spike....) everything looks good as a start to me.

      Just one more post to show the final result and the original "janky" solution for a laugh. Everything feels really tight and no wobbling at all, very pleased 🙂

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) clogged cat

      By MBS206 · Posted

      The hot exhaust light will come on not from just the cat being blocked, but it's just a temp sensor, and it's designed to warn you to not do things like park in long grass.   If you've been pushing the motor a bit, it can cause the light to come on.   Second if the cat is rattling, I'd suspect it's not blocked, but instead falling apart inside.   The easiest "fix" until you can get a cat put back in, is to unbolt your one, bash the rest of the insides out, and then bolt it back in.   For a daily driver/street car, I am in agreeance of put a cat in the car. If it were race car I wouldn't care if it were removed.
