i hope you don't have a heavy right foot :laugh:

nah actually I'm shifting my gears around 2.5k RPM at the moment.

Want to get used to the twin plates before increasing the weight on

my right foot :P and I really want to see how many Kms from full tank

if I granny the car. Hopefully I can get 400+ kms from this tank!

Thanks mate, my missus knew how much I want a GTR. When I was driving a Corolla and she saw me

drooling over a GTR on the road every time one drove past and I've been talking about GTR for the last

4-5 years so she did not object me from buying one :P

Hope you will get to buy one in the future mate. Tell her it's your car your money :D

If only it worked that way. ;)

I'm lucky, mine wants to build a drag car. :D Too bad I want to drift ...

As above though, awesome car mate, enjoy it!

I'm quite jealous!

Compare to my old car which was the corolla 2005 :( She's way way quicker.

very stable on the freeway and in the corner.

Before I've come across this R32, I've test drive the R33 GTR from another dealer in

Dandenong, the R33 was no where near as good as this one. Felt engine worn yeahh

not as fast :P The km on the clock was 93,xxx something but it was an aftermarket

nismo dash. The dude reckon it's the genuin Kms on the car, and the car is a Vspec.

So I just walked away didn't bother calling him back or anything

Please correct me if I'm wrong about the nismo dash. I think even if the car is a Vspec

it still should come with normal dash yeah? not the 320km/hour one.

If yours is pretty much standard and if you don't drive it aggressively, then YES you can definitely get 400+kms from the tank.

Because mine is stock standard and it always gets more than 400 kms every single time.

I drive 60% on freeway and 40% on hwy.

The best I remember is 1 litre ~ 8.2 klms (or 12 litres for 100 kms). I refilled when at 460-470klms (really conservative driving :blush: )

But there is no fun to drive slow all the time ... that's not what we get this car for isn't it? :(:):D

So my average is 1 litre ~ 7.7 klms (normal driving + a bit aggressive from time to time)

Is that for full tank? Not bad see ;) .. try cleaning the afms will help a bit too :D ..

i hate driving in cbd :down:

can't imagine how you drive with a twin plate ..

think i'm gonna try a cushioned button when it's due for replacement ..

so enjoy the car :down: .. i only have mine for a year and to me it's a great car ..

treat it well and i believe you'll always enjoy it :angry:

      R32GTR R200 reverting from Nismo centre to stock

      I like it when the counter chick leads you out the back into the racks and says "have a grub around in here and see if you can find what you need. I'll be back in a few minutes. Just left me in front of a massive motorised shelving system and 2-3 million fasteners, so I could find a peculiar SS shoulder bolt with cap head. Gotta love country towns.

      I used this https://osgiken.com.au/product/os-giken-os-250r-lsd-gear-oil-80w250-1-litre/   shut my nismo 1.5 pro up by heaps…. Not silent though. Gives the car character and personality. It ain’t a carolla. If you want silent, put a quaife in it.

      It's about the same time for me from Bunnings, or the Fasteners. My big push away from takeaway food, and gluten in general keeps me away from the Bunnings Snags too! Weather up here, I've been out for two walks today in the beautiful sunshine. Had a few little drizzles, and some wind, that honestly, a tin of beans and I could compete on how harsh she blows Thankfully, being this bit inland, we're not getting anything much really. Will probably pick up a bit more when/if Cyclone Alfie decides to come ashore. A few areas in the GC though, and south into NSW are really getting smashed though! Right now, I'm just annoyed Alfie hasn't hit, as I'm not allowed to crack into the BBQ foods like the bacon and eggs until the Cyclone hits "In case we lose power"...

      I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate

      R32 update from 1990's spec.

      Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
