Marlin - Im a little scared to go full sequential. Im thinking i might try a gearset first... but im definately keen on replacing the stock brakes and a weld in cage for serious track time

You're sure going to need some brakes :/ A cage doesn't need to be weld in, a proper, I stress proper bolt in would do you just fine.

Re the 'box... fair enough too mate when a S6 Hollinger and other requirements to run/fit it add up to around $22k!

That's why I suggest dry sumping that lovely engine instead.... that'll cost around 10k to do it once, do it right. On any serious GTR it's one mod that is very much worth doing, and it will save you costly rebuilds down the track. Never have an oil issue ever again, it'll be totally out of your mind, and you'll be busy having fun while all the other guys are emptying catch cans and mopping up oil lol....

If you need a good box, let me know. We have a virtually brand new latest spec (upgraded selectors) PPG full dog box to suit you here for $6k. Ready to bolt in :D

bigmikespec - exactly what i was wanting. something that i interpret as a true japan style gtr...

just had a dyno run this week for a "check-tune" and made 468kw AND 590Nm @wheel's (all 4), pump fuel and 20psi and prolly say thats at 7,900rpm

p.s. thats also with a full exhaust system (hi-flo cat, muffler & exit muffler. HKS silent hi-power)

fun123 - from memory the head port its quite expensive process. i couldn't tell you how long the actually porting took because of all the other work i had done during the process. give the guys at gt a call and you can work out with them if it would suit your application to go this road (other porting work might suffice).

Well the time has come and im thinking of parting with my GTR. Any interested parties drop me a pm and we can talk.

Cheers.

    • All I can say Duncan is good luck and I hope that Neil did not run any E85 in Cheryl. I have recently experienced the full spectrum of fuel tank issues in my R33's that had been caused by E85 and contaminated fuel. When you take the cover off the top of the tank and have a look inside you will get an understanding of how easy it will be. Best case situation is clean fuel with minimal contamination. My GTR was like this and it was a very simple operation to just grab the fuel pump carrier bracket and slide it up and out of the tank. My three GTS_T's had different levels of fuel contamination that was probably caused by E85 in the fuel.  In the worst case all of the metal components in the tank had rusted to the point where there were pieces of rusted metal swirling around in the tank. This required the removal of the exhaust, the tailshaft, the complete rear cradle and the fuel tank. The components in the tank were that rusted that it took days to get the fuel pump carrier and the mounting brackets out of the tank. When the tank was finally cleaned, everything inside the tank had to be replaced. With the tank all back together I could then reinstall it in the car along with everything else that had to come out. Good luck and I hope that you find a clean tank.    
    • It is a two door. It is black and also still has the OEM wheels and stereo. Exact model would be KR_R32RGFEL_SS According to GTR-Registry.com is a 2 Door Coupe; RB20DE; 2WD no HICAS; MT.F5; (11L) Projector Headlamps and Fog Lights; (12_) Electronic Active Full Auto Air Con (Climate Control); (13-14SS) V Selection -- Which seems to be accurate description of my variant. Will try to upload a few pictures soon. The OEM wheels look like the below image. Image is taken from the goo-net-exchange website.

    • Welcome Gabriel. At least your car has a glorious RB and not the shitty CA18. As MBS206 mentioned all the good bits can be added later. Two doors or four?
    • And half of them have been converted to turbos.
