Hi all,

well ive had her now for a bit over a week, and ive finally got around to taking some happy snaps. so here you go

Quick run down on the car,

1990 R32 GTR

Twin N1 turbos (1.3 bar), Apexi power FC, Greddy Profec Boost controller, ARC intercooler, Nismo fuel pump and reg, Cam gears, Apexi filters, Trust exhaust, Tein Super Street coil overs, Cusco front and rear strut braces, P1 Buddy Club 17's.

I think that about it... But all this equates to about 280kw at all fours, and a truckload of fun!!! Cant wait for the first trackday!

Please feel free to comment...

P.S. Sorry for the poor quality pics, (moblie phone used...)

fantastically modified in tough black!

btw mate i would really put in an oil cooler before you take a track day on, if you watch this best motoring dvd called gtr: the prodigy, a stock r32 gtr goes out on the track and the oil temperature climbs very high by like the second lap so id hate to see anything bad happen to yours as its got significanty more power.

yeah ive actually got that dvd, thats what got me thinking about it.

if the oil temp can climb that quick in a stock gtr at tsukuba (prolli 10 degrees air temp or less), imagine what would happen to one with 280kw at a track day that might be 30 od degrees.

thanks mate.

Any break upgrades?

Stock disc and pads don't cut it out on a warm track.

Yeah true,

unfortunatly the R32 GTR brakes are not up to competition spec unless its the VSpec models with the Brembos.

The engine is still r32, with r34 covers.

brakes are standard, unfortunatley. but upgrade is on the way!

i would like to get my hands on a set of semi slicks for the track, but need to save my pennies for a while.

cheers.

    • I tried my best, well I see how it is though... It's time to be ruthless! I'll up my bid with a JVC sub and an amp to run it, 8 stainless steel drink coasters with a rubber backing, and a photo of Tom Cruise. Oh, I can increase the cash portion by 20 cents if that helps. 
    • Or if it's grey, is it watery? Does it do it after you've been for like an hour long drive it will still do it, or just near the start of the trip? As GTS said, does it seem like oil (blue), water (white/grey) or fuel (black)? Sometimes the colour can be hard to see clearly too for what it is, as GTS says, what's it smell like?
    • I wonder if part of it has to do with when you've each bought the kits. I honestly have the feeling that the silicon joiners in the 2000s were actually better quality than most of what you can find these days. Even in the same brands. Everyone racing to the cheapest price while still trying to make profit means lower quality parts. For coolant, I personally would be going with rubber, OR, converting the radiator and engine to use the huge AN fittings hose for radiators.
    • If shift solenoid A is bad, that explains limp mode --- now you're in the same position as I mentioned previously, in that the next step is to confirm loom/wiring integrity from TCU to gearbox connector with a multimeter (the TCU cannot detect a broken wire, which can happen ..ie; rodent damage, loom rubbed through)...and then finally measure resistance (at the gearbox connector) for shift solenoid A ... ...once you confirm shift solenoid A is bad (open circuit, really low or greater than 40ohm resistance), then it's a job ; you have buy a complete solenoid set, get under the car and drop transmission oil pan, and remove valvebody assembly (the solenoids sit on top), replace solenoid set, and reassemble....it's not exactly a fun task, but readily doable.
    • Is it oil smoke or fuel smoke? They smell different.
