Welcome Dino.

Bubba, are you using standard water pump and thermostat on your build?

I should be there in my 'different' R32, your's is looking the goods.

Welcome Dino.

Bubba, are you using standard water pump and thermostat on your build?

Yeah standard OEM RB30 water pump (guy I got the bottom end off put a new one on not long before I got it) and I put a standard 76.5deg thermostat in there.

On my last 30 I was running a standard RB20 water pump

[turboedsloth]

Will they go ok with some track work?

[bubba]

Water pump choice depends on revs, I won't be spinning the thing over 7000rpm so standard pump is fine. If I was a drifter living life between 7000-9000rpm then I would go for an N1 pump.

The thermostat is also fine, our engines are designed to rough at roughly 80deg. I've never been a fan of the lower temp nismo thermostats.. if you need one of those to keep temps down then you have issues elsewhere.

Jimmy's 32 is definitely looking the goods.

Are you keeping the NSW plates Jimmy?

[doyl]

Was supposed to do this on the weekend but got crazy sick.

Only got her a few weeks ago.

The good:

-minimal upgrades, just the usual things like a power fc, fmic, bigger injectors and a fair few suspension mods that make it handle (and feel) like a go kart.

-145k kms

-Quiet for a skyline exhaust

-GTR spoiler

The bad:

-HICAS is dying, need to either fix that or lock it out (probably go for option 2)

-Paint (as you may be able to see) is fading quite bad on the RHS and roof and boot (not spoiler though)

-GTR spoiler

Didn't cost me much so the bad points don't really phase me at all

[bubba]

Ditch the hicas

[doyl]

Yeah was definitely planning on doing that.

Can get a hicas lockout kit for pretty damn cheap (proper whiteline) so will be going down that route.

get rid of it for shore. If you need a hand let me know i would suggest taking it all out (pump and lines) and putting a cooler on the front. those kits usually just block the lines or cycle it back.
