Hi Guys,

As some of you may recall, my car was violated a little while ago. Stereo stolen, dash busted up etc....

Well, anyway, I decided to get my dash resprayed to remove all the blemishes, but I wanted somebody who knew what they were doing to spray it.

I employeed my sister's friend, as he ran some backyard job, and was going to do it for me for free. But since handing him the dash over a month ago, I have not heard from him since. Phone calls and sms's all ignored.....

I have however seen my dash, by looking through his garage window, and can see that no work has taken place, despite his bs, in saying it's done etc etc....

So I'm thinkin of confronting him, and simply getting my sh|t back. That however, still leaves me with a sanded dash, which is no good to me. I have the paint, (2pak stuff, thinners and hardeners), just don't have the equipment to apply it.

If I do manage to get my stuff back, can somebody help me paint it??? It's been an absolute nightmare for me of late, and need somebody I can rely on, to put all this behind me.

Can anybody please help?

Thanks to all how reply.

Cheers!

you can paint the dash using the 2pac and thinners.. you can buy small spray cans which you mix the thinners and 2pac and use that to spray. Its like a pov compressor setup but it comes up nicely.. King Ricer.. er sorry dj_l3thal used this method for his dash.

Hahah,

Yeah, my baby is all naked right now..... wires stewn everywhere...... there's no air vent, just one gaping hole in the middle of the dash.....

No stereo bracket, so my factory tape deck is just sitting there. My discman, lying on top, so that at least i have some tunes. *sigh*

Yeah, in hindsight should have paid somebody to do it. The guy claims it should be ready by tomorrow. Oh course it won't be, but I'll see him then.....

But if it's not ready, then ylwgtr2, I'll be sure to give you a call/pm. Thank you for your help btw.

But as for Nath's job, yeah looked good, if I don't get anywhere then the pov compressor will have to do. But yeah, thanks again guys.

      Had another look at the car and I noticed the fuel pump isn't priming on ignition. I'd taken out the pump from the boot to siphon out the old fuel, so maybe I've knocked something loose or broken a wire putting things back together. Will go back with a multimeter and try to work out what's stuffed. Kinda hoping it's the pump itself thats gone so I can upgrade it

      Yeah agreed, you can't assume that shop are they only people who ever had to work on it. It was just a guess on the mods based on how things were done back then. You can check the Air Flow Meters by the part number on their tags, they are likely either Z32 or Nismo ones (both read about the same but the Z32 one is a little larger while nismo is stock size but supports the higher airflow like a Z32). And yes, all that would get you to 450hp / 340kw To tell what is happening with the turbos, you want a photo of the tag on the core, that will say what it was made out of  (they can retain the front and rear covers to make the plumbing easier)

      1992 R32 GT-R Race Car

      By bardabe · Posted

      I'm selling my personal race car. 1992 BNR32 Skyline GT-R About eight years ago the engine developed the dreaded low oil pressure problem. I removed it and found the issue. However shortly after I moved half way across the country, moved my work shop, bought a house, got married, then moved my shop again to it's permanent location for the time being. in turn I do not have the time to race this car as it should be. In turn the engine I built for this car will end up in my street car and this car I hope finds a home with someone who can use it to it's full potential. The roll bar was built by Jason Noren Fabricaiton in Pomona California to SCCA and NASA Specs. The car used to compete in redline time attack and global time attack enthusiast class. It also has a fire suppression system.  The car is with me at my workshop in Kyle Texas, USA. Shipping it is no problem, I can personally deliver the car to the port of either Houston or Los Angeles. Any other port depending on where it is may require transport but we can always work that out.   The chassis itself is rust free, rear quarters and under fenders are free of any rust so it's a very solid foundation for anyone who wishes to move forward with it. As posted and at the asking price of $20,000 USD the car includes all of the following;   All OEM Body panels, front fenders, rear bumpers etc.  OEM Nissan Projector headlamps (Pictured N1 lamps were removed) OEM Nismo Side Skirts / Extensions OEM Rear Spats  Front & Rear Subframes are installed car is full roller Rear Subframe has Cusco Camber Arms, Whiteline HICAS Elimination Front Subframe has Whiteline tension rods and whiteline Sway bars w/ endlinks.  Buddy Club N1 Coilovers All chassis wiring and engine wiring is in tact. Attessa System is fully in tact and was functional before engine removal.  BCNR33 GT-R Brembo Brakes F+R with Endless MX72 Plus Pads, DBA Rotors & Stainless Steel Brake lines Billion Racing Radiator Billion Radiator Hoses Fluidyne Engine Oil Cooler Accusump System (trunk Mounted) 5 Speed Transmission w/ Transfer Case F+R Prop-shafts Rear Differential With rear Axles.  Nismo Gauge Cluster Nismo Clutch + Flywheel   Essentially what is needed to make this car running and driving again is as follows: A working Engine, an ECU, and time to put it together. The price posted is or best offer as I am willing to remove some components to accommodate price to a certain extent. If any serious buyer wants full detailed pictures, videos, or any questions I'll be happy to answer them. I believe this car is priced to move quickly considering it's a rust free and very straight chassis but always open to fair negotiation.  I can be contacted via phone or email. (+19517081648) email is juan@bardabe.com
