R32 Ls1 Conversion

very nice build... very well done.

2 things that might be worth a look would be on page http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/R3...html&st=680 the air ram setup looks great maybe a little shallow but you are limited a little there. Very effective and something most average people don't consider.

But I wondered if a missed opportunity to direct some of the airflow over the 2 fuel rails and maybe a finned fuel rail to get more fuel cooling. The other is the strut brace... you would be surprised how much it would be flexing. a Straight one over the ram tubes will fit and work much better.

i see where your coming from, all the points you make are valid, i just didnt have the room. the strut brace is designed to run this way but around the back, but the engine sits so far back that it was easier around the front. the fuel rails sit 5mm under the bonnett so couldnt go over with the brace. you can with factory manifold. wasnt concerned with fuel temp as e85 is cold and it chews it, and some airflow will reach them.

Can we redo the exhaust, and take it to texi? 3Rd gear off the mark frying tyres?

[Victory]

How would we go with a pair of "butt" plugs in the exhaust to just take the edge of the exhaust note and give it a run at texi?

I have an old pair of 245 semi's on a set of SSR's that you could fry for the day if you like...

yeh im keen to have a go, maybe some steel wool will do the job.

sounds just like mine lol.

pulled the diff centre out last week, pulled the centre apart only to find it was assembled differently to the nismo expoded view pics.

found workshop manual which then showed it was correct, so figured the nismo kit went together differently so re-assembled it as per the nismo instructions. (all in japanese mind you.)

feels alot tighter on the bench, but ill see how it feels on the track. i tried to find some thicker pre-load shims but they dont do them for the gtr centre, only the gtst. even tried slipping an extra clutch disk in but wouldnt fit.

put a good pair of second hand yokohamas on the front, will chenge the rears after a few skids on the weekend.

also going to wire a reverse lockout button in as im a little cautious when hitting 5th gear as reverse gear is along side it.

it has a lockout solenoid from factory, but only locks out reverse with ignition off. so wiring a momentary switch in so i have to press button to select reverse when ignition is on, otherwise reverse is locked out at all times.

any chance you could point me toward one of those starter relocation kits? been looking for awhile now and can't find $hit! thanks!

[BezerkR32]

hey mate, advertised it to see if it would generate any interest. it took a while but recieved 2 calls this week, and i sold it yesterday....

wsnt intending on selling it but got a good offer.

So...next is an R32 GTR shell, silver, chrome moly cage and an LSX with a Hollinger 6 spd sequential behind it....or if you are over Chevs then throw a Judd V10 in one

But in all seriousness, hope it went to a good home!
