Hey all,

I have an r32 GTR and its got a pretty bad vibration in it.

I notice it when i am in 3rd/4th/5th at medium sort of revs sitting on 80 - 90 and above. It appears to get worse as I get faster I havent done any crazy speeds because it feels like the front wheels will fall off.

I disconnected the fwd fuse and it went away, so I assumed it was the solid front drive shaft. Had a look at it, looked ok, not as if it had taken a hit or anything like that. I semi ruled it out when I saw that the front two bolts in the rear gearbox mount (The one at the rear under the gearbox, near where the tail shaft inserts) were out about 1cm out, so tried to tighten them and they just kept ripping threw before they got any tighter.

Taped new holes and got new high tensile bolts stuck them in nice and tight, but still has the vibration and just as bad, any suggestions.

cheers

AsH

    • Hi All, I'm based in Sydney and want to get hold of 4 stock R34 GTT wheel caps as pictured. Cheers
    • Haha im flattered! Although my poor boat is collecting dust in the garage, as it hasn’t been driven in like 6 months. I forgot the to put the trickle charger on too, so the battery is likely toast now.. I have the frenchys kit. It is fantastic. My only gripe was that the hard lines from the firewall needed some tweaking, however, this was mainly due to my specific turbo and dump combo. The weight and size packaging is much nicer too. I think I have some pics on my build thread somewhere.. my justification for the kit was more “why not” I had gone to the trouble to modernise just about every other part of the car..
    • Actually, ethanol has probably never been cheaper, on a tax free basis, than petrol. With fuel excise being what it is, and only being levied on the hydocarbon component, not the ethanol component, and ethanol for non-drinking purposes not being subject to liquor excise - E85 was cheaper, but not because the combustible liquid itself was particularly cheaper.
    • Maybe? If changing the cat to a higher flowing cat, caused the turbo to spool more quickly, and those areas of the map had not been tuned for the boost level it is now seeing, then yes you would need a re-tune. How dangerous it is running without the updated tune would depend on how far out the tune is with the now higher boost levels, how the engine protection has been setup, is the ECU compensating with a wideband sensor, is the boost control closed loop blah blah million other things... But yeah having said that, I wouldn't be surprised if changing out the cat for a high flow, in say a full 3" exhaust, made no noticeable difference at all.
