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

    • More photos are up, and the price has been dropped to $16,000. It's just had a service and a new 12V battery, too.
    • I agree on doing some better than factory pistons, rods, and oil pump. For anyone using the vehicle on the road, I don't get why everyone wants big cams. The stock cam profile, with some more lift would be mint for road usage. Everyone going big cams and then wondering why it isn't as responsive in traffic, when they've shifted the torque curve upwards an additional 1000RPM. Make torque, at lower RPM. Sure it's not as cool as claiming "500KW" and revving it to 8,0000RPM, but that same torque 2,000RPM earlier... Then you don't need the extremely high end pistons and rods, and blah blah blah.
    • Personal experience. Those f**kers burn. And are actually a PITA to put out. Next time I walk down the back, I'll snap a photo of what the inside of the bonnet looks like when that thing ignites. PS, powder fire extinguishers are useless on that stuff too as it's fibrous and when it ignites, it starts to pull apart. And you end up just blowing powder through a sieve effectively.   Like the big thing is, if it's fire resistant, it's job is to stop what burning? The METAL above it? It's just to try keep heat off the bonnet paint work.
    • Oh man, sorry, $60.00000000... 😛
    • That's more or less what he meant. What it really means is that you do not have to go full crazy on the build. Don't need the best oil pump, expensive rods & pistons, big cams, etc. You can upgrade whatever you want instead of using stock level items, but you don't have to. Having said that - any time an RB is opened up, if anything is getting replaced, I think the opportunity should be taken to do all the sensible upgrades. Pistons, rods, pump, etc.
