Forged internals and wind up the boost as ive done just about every thing else.

Brakes-done

Suspension-done

Bolt ons-done

Remove stupid 400r bar and replace with standard bar to give me that extra 25mm so i can get into my driveway-done

252kwatw at 14 psi now on a conservitive tune but with forged internals and more boost with a nice tune after run in = ???????kwatw

Im hoping for 1 bazillion & 11kwatw

GO RB25 GO

SMOKE THEM BAGS.

Take it to Eastern Creek for some laps and a couple of 1/4s.(hard as coilovers so lots of wheel spin i thinks)

Hope i dont break it to quickly

Also buy a old Vaiant and rebuild it, ie VF-VG, my missus said i could do it, but she said it cannot bounce around when i drive it because it make her boobies jiggle, guess that means soft suspension.

Work to make her pretty too.

19" GTC rims sitting here will be matched with tyres and mounted on!

JJR bellmouth will be bought and mounted once they open - my split dump will be for sale too btw. CES OPTION.

I hope to mount a full body kit to the car - z tune for GTT but unsure if this is still avaliable.

Drop it on its ass and enjoy it - may look into sway bars as I feel it still moves to much on hard cornering.

Happy NY!

new computer, boost controller and tune on monday.... bring on 500hp!!!!

then in lyk a month or 2

sway bars, new slotted rotors all round,braided lines, r34 gtr seats, short shifter, carbon mirrors, bonnet, wing blade, b pillars, radiator air guide, series 3 gtr lower lip and sum other stuff i cant remember atm

Sh!t load of work going on the government should get the cops off our asses due to the amount of money we pour into our cars hence helping the economy which at the moment is a bit fcked, looks like most of us are in the same boats, every bolt on engine part done all we can do is keep upgrading haha

Hmm, I got a voucher from my oldies and my sister for Xmas, so I think that's going to go towards an EBC. Other than that, here's some things I'd like to get done to the wagon over the year, depending on available funds:

  • priority #1 - get the air-con working again ASAP as it hasn't worked since fitting the PFC (long story short, there was no PFC made to suit a Stagea, so there are a few gremlins to sort out);
  • get some GT-R seats and re-trim the rears and door cards to match;
  • get a rear wing, probably just the regular Stagea one or maybe the 260RS version;
  • re-do the stereo - new head unit (probably a single-DIN DVD player with reversing camera), replace speakers, add amplifiers and a sub, and sort out any rattles;
  • get some engine bits coated and maybe try and tidy up the engine bay in general, which may hiding some of the wiring;
  • upgrade brakes to R33 GTSt/R32 GT-R units front and rear, with braided lines - should make it much easier to replace pads when the time comes;
  • replace turbo (if it blows) with a GT-RS or something similar with good response, and get some more minor work done for more power and response overall...

- get my motor sorted

- fit my new plenum, injectors and my ebc

- tune

- sort out my rear suspension + tyres

- new front bar + respray the car

- FINALLY hit some track days

- get into the 11sec 1/4 bracket

I've been thinking of a double din DVD player with gps but I get put off everytime the gps images look crap don't wanna invest 1k for a pioneer one when an eBay 1 for 500 will do the job, some look real nice but I always end up putting it off

Buy my 1st car, R33 GTS-T (Black, Series 1 pref. Type M)

Install Turbo-Back Just Jap Hyperflow exhaust with an extra mid muffler

Install Hybrid Spec RS Intercooler Kit

Install Turbosmart Dual Port BoV

Install Just Jap SR3 Style Seats

Install Boost Gauge

Install Aftermarket Suspension (slight lowering)

Install aftermarket ECU (most likely a piggy back E-Manage for now)

Maybe Purchase and Install Speedy Cheetah's/Volk GT-C's/Starcorp Racing Fusions (19")

Thats bout it for L-Plates and P-Plates whilst I save up for the big build (see plans in newb intro)

    • Yeah I'm happy to talk to whoever, I don't want to take ownership or even manage it if they don't want but I can probably help with hosting on the sau setup. It's a great resource and should be protected.
    • So, got some bits..   New oil filter housing gasket (main problem I'm trying to fix -see leak above)  While you're in there's: New belts, pulley and tensioners.  Vanos oil line New oil drain valve New water pump and pulley  New fumoto valve (all my cars have these). Some of this stuff seems ok now that I've pulled it out but I still have no idea how old it all is.  The belts looked fine and then I noticed this. Like somebody has hooked it with a pick. 
    • As the title suggests, Looking for some comfortable replacement seats that will suit/fit an R32 GTR. Purely road use.  Happy to travel to the Tweed, Gold Coast and Brisbane area. Possibly Sunshine Coast for the right seats. Show me what you got! Thanks in advance.
    • Customer states,I got an oil leak.  Customer was raht.
    • Hi friends, I recently got myself back into an R32 GTR with factory seats. The seats themselves are in excellent condition but the drivers seat is a bit tight for my back and become uncomfortable after about 20min of driving. The passenger seat is a little better so I'm not sure what is going on there, almost as if the drivers seat is newer and has not been worn in.  Anyway, I'm looking to replace them with something thats going to be comfortable for road use.  I was looking at these replica seats from Crank Motorsport however there has been a number of reviews of the company that aren't great so i'm a little skeptical.  https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/185466689021?_skw=r32+GTR+front+seats&itmmeta=01JKS72VG115M2Y3KBGCBCWYDD&hash=item2b2ead15fd:g:cMAAAOSwhhZlsIpK&itmprp=enc%3AAQAJAAAA8HoV3kP08IDx%2BKZ9MfhVJKl6v17FmqPFPHrHp4kFm2I9VMAXrpZg5R8sUXH6QLUAkliQu34NiG%2F84PJ05lKf2iGboUiWpWbvHYPYKsT154rul3I%2FaGRskpG8VfgyrwC9%2BdRj7uoDAPGJH%2FVprfvd6pgAN2XmUz6buE9YHvOPCKhtJfsQXhEzwgmVTcIwEkkV0A1r%2FkyJYMmQK0OKLI%2FrM%2FQLzeAOkN9B6WLAPrNyFlml%2FkG%2BYzkTXGJ8LN%2B0NCSLfczQGSYeJqPfvMFMgDL2gOD%2BPWb3sX1D1A6PxY5jqyMGey7zin4sDqrUrA7CpqLLpA%3D%3D|tkp%3ABFBMmriLp55l I also live In the Northern Rivers and these seats are in Melbourne so I can't even try them out before purchase.  Is there anywhere/anyone around the Gold Coast, Tweed or Brisbane area that would have a decent selection of seats I could test out before purchase. A lot of these places seem to be in Sydney and Brisbane. Maybe there's an individual who has an after market item such as Bride or Recaro I could quickly try? Thanks in advance!
