R32 Gts4 - Restoration/rebuild

[turboedsloth]

The seats bolted straight in? With the factory rails?

[Chris Rogers]

Yes stock rails.no mods straight bolt in. gives me options for spare seat parts now as well.

R32 / R33 GTS GTST GTS4 GTR, R34 GTR seats all interchangeable (not GTT - unsure about GT)

[boiracer]

even the GTT isnt far off. i have a pair here that are destined for my better halfs VW. have been thinking about bolting them into my 33 (34 seats are a tad bigger), but they do require a small amount of works.

the build is really coming along well mate. I will have to swing buy some time and check it i think

[Chris Rogers]

give me a call first. lately I have not been working on it tat much. trying to do other things that do not cost a lot of $$ to do. harnesses being one of them.

[Chris Rogers]

got these today.

R32 GTR I'cooler piping and BOVs. I already have the brackets to mount this stuff. the rear mudflaps and fuse panel cover were an extra bonus.

now to work out what I am missing. I still need a GTR air box and BOV return pipe.

[SABBAi]

If you cant find an R32 BPV return pipe, you can use an R33 item.

[Chris Rogers]

thanks for the tip!!

i have just finished reading this, chris mate, this is awesome, i honestly cannot wait to see this in person when you have finished everything, everything is so well thought out and planned, words escape me as to how awesome this build is.

[Chris Rogers]

yep its definitely a full on job that I do a bit at a time.

[Joe Nash]

any progress with everything, how is the loom going?

[Chris Rogers]

been a bit busy and have not had time to do anything on it. soon as things free up I'll do more.

[Joe Nash]

noice

[Chris Rogers]

finally spent a bit more time doing small things. drivers door harness has been rebuilt to take a factory door actuator instead of a aftermarket gun type so it will be a bit more reliable.

when I got all the GTR bits off whizzn they came with a GTR key. all the locks went to HA Reed Locksmiths in Albion today to get recoded and a spare key made. should have them back in a few days and that will fix the worn locks as well.

probably going to spend sunday doing another harness.

[reeceo21]

hey mate have you changed thefront ball joints on this ? i cant seeem to be able to source them

[whizzn]

I'll be dropping off an airbox with some other stuff next week Chris, run out of time today

Only problem with it is that someone in Japan grinded half of the bottom bit away for extra cooling lol but top halfs alright

[Chris Rogers]

that is fine. call me first as I may be out.

[Chris Rogers]

hey mate have you changed thefront ball joints on this ? i cant seeem to be able to source them

not yet. mine are fine.

[Chris Rogers]

started working on the engine harnesses tonight. that should take a week or so on mucking around and it will be done. my goal is to be able to fire relays with a diagnostic computer attached. if I can do that then the car should run once the engine goes in.
