My 32gtr

[DAS KAMU]

Hi glad i found this site...

Heres my build so far in a nutshell there will be more to come

Bought this about 1 year ago

a small bit of wee came out when the owner took me for a test drive

so i took it home then the fun/pain started

Step 1 service parts.

water pump

cam seals

all the bearings

trust timing belt

all the accesory belts

yadda yadda

then picked up a set of splitfire ignitioncoils from a guy in sunnybank

got a good price so happy times

then installed install the apexi super flow air filter kit

a very nice kit and well presented

goes together o.k

instructions are so so

then got some alloy subframe collars

OH YEAH!

then replaced this seal

then ordered a new stainless exhaust from jdm land

i then lost the rear turbo so i ordered these bad mofo's

Garrett GT2860R-5 good for 360 hp each specs below

GT2860R-707160-5 turbo changers which are direct replacement items for the Nissan skyline R32/33/34 GTR. They are rated to 360hp each, 720hp combined, and have the following specifications:

* Ball bearing

* Oil & Water-cooled bearing system

* T25 turbine inlet flange with threaded bolt holes instead of traditional through holes

* Turbine housing has a unique "compact" 5-bolt outlet that is not interchangeable with traditional T25 5-bolt outlets

* Turbine housing is cast from high-nickel "Ni-Resist" material for extreme applications

* Turbine wheel is cast from "Inconel" material for extreme applications

* Direct replacement upgrade turbocharger for GT2556R (702987-7) used on Nissan Skyline R34 GT-R

* Great size for applications w/ packaging constraints

* Ideal for smaller displacement engines making up to 360 hp

* Turbine housing option available

* Turbine housing options allow turbo to be outline-interchangeable with other turbos using the traditional 5-bolt turbine housing. Housing fits over turbine wheel but actuator/wastegate fitment may need to be adjusted.

i also bought some dumps

pic of asshole spider in my closet - now i cant go in and get a shirt so very scared

new engine and box mounts

ok so the turbo swap starts and so begins 12 hours of fun

grabbed some purple as well

brad had to take some meat from the turbine housings to match to the new manifolds

as you can see below a fair bit had to go

installing the new studs

dumps joined

[nuclear_skyline]

nice work! What brand dumps are they???

[Beelzebub89]

look like tomei dumps? Very nice man. Keep the pics coming

[DAS KAMU]

nice pair

as you can see things do not look to good

the good standard turbo

[DAS KAMU]

the dead turbo

few more pics of the dead turbo for referance

[DAS KAMU]

pic of good and bad for reference

found the turbine in the cat

Destroyed turbine

[DAS KAMU]

Got front pipe

also got some expansion cones 2.5 to 3 inch to mate to the dumps

the outlet to the cat is 3 inches

should be good

then i can raise the booooooooooost

Cusco plate relocator thing

O2 sensor reducer nut thingo

put subframe collars in today - these make the rear end solid and makes life easier when getting sideways

ordered a full urethane diff mount bush kit from uas in Sydney

the worn rubber just above the hicas

What i thought was a fuel pump

turned out to be an afm issue but oddly enough upon opening them and buying all the soldering gear the connectors had not come loose inside which is the main problem with rb26 afm's

althogh there was a little surface rust around some of the solders on the board

so popped on to sau and the prices for used ones went from $150 for the pair up to $850

i went to molindiner and got the cheaper ones and they were as new

we plugged them in and car is well again

All back in and running again

i also made a video of how it was acting the night before last

[DAS KAMU]

ABS unit died so into the bin it went the bypassed the brake lines

Before..

After....

there is quite a lot to the abs unit so im glad its out

lots of spare room

[DAS KAMU]

then the day before Australia day .......

oh what a day

just got back from the shop to reattach the air con pump that was just hanging as all the bolts snapped off due to the previous co*k who fu*%ed with it

so a trip to the bolt shop

and 5 hours later i have aircon again

oh yeah it was not even a nissan pump its clearly for some other car lol

Time for a few pics i guess (the white car is mine also)

more to come !

[DAS KAMU]

ok so i got this part which recirculates the fluid as theres no hicas anymore

i opend the box and was like where the f&^k does this go lol!

but it turns out it goes into the line just before the subframe

[DAS KAMU]

i got Advan Tc2 17x9.5 + 14 in silver

I fitted some rear upper control arms the get the camber in check also the left side control arm was busted so the handling has improved alot

[DAS KAMU]

For the other 32 owners this is the lowbeam bulb you need - ive had a busted one for months and and im sick of worring about a defect lol

While i was doing that i did the fuel filter also (those hoses are tight)

And just for lols .............. my boost controller

[DAS KAMU]

diff mount bushes were dead

So i orderd a full urethane diff mount bush kit from UAS in sydney

DEAD.......

Replaced them and now there great

highly recomended

[DAS KAMU]
