18" brakes? get the tape measure out, you need to run std size wheels in Targa. Don't think 16" wheels would fit. :-)

:D i wasn't going to say anything about the brakes or the fact that the suspension set up would be illegal as well (unless its just the TEIN set up)

Either way a built GTR is always nice to see on the road, sounds like there not taking any chances with a new motor/box :/

32 GTR price $12000 - $200 000+

Its not the JIGSAW racing 32 is it Skip???

I thought jigsaw racing's was a R33? Targa will only let you have adjustible dampers, averything elce must be stock (even hicas :/ ). And this year you were allowed to run option sized wheels (18x9 on R32, and 18x10 R33) but that rule might be getting reversed.

Is it matt's blue R32?

The V-spec GTR is 33 but there is also a 32 GTR getting around with the JIGSAW Racing sticker.

Rickard's was running a single set up or has he changed again???

I doubt he would take it to a local servo anyhow unless it was to get a wheel alignment or something along those lines.

Hopefully Benno can post up about the wheels and ruling for TT08...

Im still trying to picture 18" brakes and the wheels you would need to clear them :/

If the work shop is in kingston, its Matts Blue GTR and all they are doing is just putting the engine in its really a RacePace built car!

Ah that makes sense then, will be good to see it back in action again as its been off the road for a while (longer than mine :spank: )

Did he stick with the single or go back to twin set up again Ray???

Optional wheels sizes will be OK for TT08.

R33 can contuine with 18x10, R32 17x9 or 18x9.

Yeah you can run them but you can bet onyone who does is either slow or has illegal diffs.

(Not that anyonew seems to check!)

An R33 with tarmac rally legal engine gearbox is etc is not goiung to pull 18 x 10s.

    • Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.
    • DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P
    • As per title.. has anyone used so far? Keen to hear results, comparisons. In the market for a new mani for my new turbo. Any issues cracking?
    • Re read everything that has been written about this in this thread.. Let us know if you're still confused.
    • This would be a new pump with new gears. I'm just unclear on whether it's a good idea to run more oil pump flow if you don't actually need said flow. Oil level is set a minute or so after shutting off a warm engine so wouldn't the high RPM oil level in the sump end up lower all things equal? Plan is OEM clearances, main concern in my mind is whether the OEM pump can keep up with the flow requirements of any additional oil coolers.
