Bnr32 Track Build

[Kaido_RR]

Well the track day was a fail, got to the track did one lap (59.7) and then notice the car was losing power in high rpm and miss firing badly.

so jump off the track asap, stated to pull things apart to work out what was the issue, coil pack number 6 seem to be no working so that was my night gone (did try to tape up the coilpack but did nothing)

Anyways next day, took everything apart and found it was infact the spark plug which was fouled. so replaced that and at the same time replace my coilpack harness with a new one i had spare and just put in some newer stock coils, all good and fix now

After having alittle think about the build, i have decide to change which way i want to go with this car.

So after alittle looking, purchase myself Nismo Circuit Link Set and upper arm. Will give me that extra camber and castor which should help, not going to go full out yet so starting with small upgrade and see how that goes before i spend the cash on the I.K fourmal gear

So Kaido,

I've read through all the pages, but it was hard to keep track of all the decisions made... can you list the final spec sheet of the modifications?

how have you found the endless pads? I've got a set and I found them to be pretty average, going back to Hawks

i like them, they are very noises, dusty and do like to eat disc however their stopping power with the AP is great.

I have only run endless pads, so got nothing to really compare them too.

In my opinion Ikeya Formula stuff isn't worth it unless you are loaded. Get either Cazman's stuff, or SPL gear from the states. The SPL gear especially is super trick.

What's the deal with the rear swaybar on an R32? I know on S chassis a lot of track guys either leave them stock or just remove it.

Sorry, I'm not done reading but I wanted to jump on this. Finally, someone mentioned SPL on this site.

SPL parts are far superior to A LOT of other brand including Japanese brands.

I dressed my Z33 in almost all their suspension parts and I lost count of how many people are on my jock trying to drive my car. Everyone tells me that my car handles way better than theirs (I'm also running monoflex). SPL really gives a @#$% about what their doing and the products they release. I hope a lot more Aussies consider them when upgrading suspension components.

BTW, I emailed them about two months ago regarding fitament for the R32:

Email with SPL PARTS:

"Hello,

Do you which of your suspesion parts will fit a Skyline R32 GTR?"

" Hi,

The following items will fit the Skyline R32 GTR:

S13 rear upper arms

S13 rear hicas eliminator (available but not advertised yet)

S13 traction rods

S13 rear subframe bushings or rear subframe conversion bushings

S14 rear diff bushings

S13 front tension rods

Z32 front tie rod ends w/ Z32/Z33 inner tie rods"

"Hello,

I'm not trying to be a dick but have you guys tested your S13 parts on a

R32 GTR?

Reason I ask is because

1) I heard that Z32 = GTR and S13 = GTS-T

2) I don't want to order parts from the US and have them not fit my GTR.."

"Hi,

Yes we have had customers who have purchased our products for the R32 GTR. The rear suspension is almost the same for all S13-S15, Z32 and R32-R34, with some minor differences from chassis to chassis. The Z32 rear control arms are the same as the S13 and R32. The main difference on the rear suspension is just the subframe bushings -- S13 and R32 subframe bushings are the same but Z32 is different; R32 and Z32 have diff bushings but S13 does not.

On the front suspension, the R32 is similar to the z32. But our S13 tension rods are the same as the Z32 tension rods, hence for tension rods S13=Z32=R32. But for the tie rod ends you will need the Z32 ones."
