R32 Ls1 Conversion

a little more progress on the fuel rail, trial fitted them again today, just need a little more off to fit perfect. The good thing is the bonett closes.

Also fitted some steering stops as the 235s foul on the castor rod on lock, so these are adjusted to stop this.

Stuart,,,it's looking fantastic tiger.

Are you going to make heat shields for the side pipes,,,you wouldn't wanna burn that pretty paint.

What makes me laugh is how many Skyline owners and racers love the sound of a V8. Secretly deep down we all love the roar,,,don't we boys and girls.

I cannot believe how nice the exhaust looks - cannot wait to hear this thing come to life for the first time.

Clinton and I will have to come over and check out the steering stops that you have made as we will have to build the same for his car.

ill probably be running around like a chook with no head lol. ill get someone else to video it.

Had a productive evening tonight, Fabricated a IAC (idle air control) to suit the new manifold. Butchered the standard throttlebody to do it but hey. Just have to plumb it up.

Also fabricated the breather can and radiator overflow. Ill do all the plumbing 2morro.

Also finished the fuel rails, can plumb them and fit pressure guage.

busy week ahead.

You need to be sure to have the video camera hand for the first firing

yes it runs............whoooohoooo.

It actually went accidently. We primed the fuel system to set fuel presure and check for leaks, and i thought i would give it a crank just to see if we had enough battery and it popped. i thought SH*T, THIS IS GOING TO FIRE....so i cranked it again and off she went. Only ran it for thirty seconds or so but sounded the business and all the vitals were there. ie oil pressure etc.

Had some ECU connection issues as the computer wouldnt let us talk to it, so going to try another one on monday. Think this one may have been security locked. but overall very happy. :wub:

Just talked to stu, He kicked it over but I was mega busy.

Had some issues with the ECU but it still started.

Gunna get it on the Dyno and then get some video of it. Should be good.

    • Its also very clearly made to take business away from https://theskylineshed.com/ which is legitimate and even has a physical address.
    • The 'About Us' got me ..  I added something to the cart and clicked 'check out' and none of the payment options in the footer (ie those with buyer protection) were available. Stay the hell away from this one.
    • No. Not true for any non-GTR R32. I think even the GTS4 has the GTSt knuckles with eye type lower shock mounts (as opposed to GTR fork lower shock mounts). The only R chassis in which something like the quote claim is true is the R34, on which the turbos have the fork type and the NAs have the eye type. **Edit: Actually I reserve the right to be wrong about the above statement. It might also be true on R33s. My memory on those shitboxen has faded too much.
    • It's a scam. It has all the telltale signs: - The "business" doesn't have a physical address or really any kind of information listed - It's using a generic online store website template - The prices are ridiculously reduced. To good to be true cheap - Everything is in stock and can be ordered in any possible combination   I've seen a few of these for other products as well. Things like sunglasses for example. I'd say stay away from it! And maybe reach out to the real theskylineshed and let them know this exists. I doubt there is much they can do about it, but still.   I don't know if they would actually take your money if you ordered something. Or whether it is just for collecting credit card details to scam otherwise. I'm not game or stupid enough to try it.
