Hey Aaron, I thought I had passed all the stuff on. I was sure you'd keep it all :) Glad to see you on the forum.

If there is anything I can do for you mate, please don't hesitate to ask. So sorry to hear you were involved in a crash through no fault of your own. I know you treated that car very well and i'm sure the engine has plenty of life in it yet. You have the receipts so you know what that engine cost so I hope you get a good price for it. It was a great set-up for a street car. The car itself was probably the nicest R32 I've owned and i've owned about a dozen. I'd say it's as nice or nicer than the one I've got now which I plan to keep for a long time.

As to gtr_23qu's question on power the engine builder was told it needed to handle 600hp but honestly a decent stock motor will handle that. The base N1 Nur engine is supposedly rated to 600hp anyway but this one was blueprinted and has a 1.2mm tomei head gasket fitted. I would be comfortable pushing it to 400kw atw+ for a street car. It has a few key bits that will enable it to handle some decent boost and power.

lol, well I know what it cost and it's not cheap. N1 block, N1 oil and water pumps, ported head, N1 pistons, tomei head gasket, tomei timing belt, all blue-printed and all other bits are brad new down to ever last nut/bolt/seal whatever. a lot more than what is replaced in the average rebuild. hope you get good money for it Aaron. :)

      R32 gtst speedo out by 10kph

      By -Jimmy- · Posted

      Interesting, I haven't read about the issue with oil getting into the speedo in the cluster before. I'll have to take more notice with mine. The speedo on my R32's when I've run factory diff and tyre size have never been accurate as far as I can remember. The non Type-M GTS-t did come with 15" 5 stud wheels and smaller brakes, but that's less than 5% of them.

      My R32 Money Pit & The Headaches That Come With It

      Good to hear the condenser you picked up off my brother worked all good. Do you think there could be an issue with your AC compressor itself or the clutch on it then? I don't know a lot about them so I can't really help but keen to hear what it ends up being. Keep the build thread going man, it's nice to look back on over time.

      This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.

      Wives never seem to find things funny. Especially when they're trying to sleep, and you've found the new funniest thing ever. I've never seen someone be able to get try and be cranky with me, while they're holding back fits of laughter... 😛   Also, I tell mine it's payback anyway. She has BiPolar. So the household can get quite emotionally wild at times 😛

      I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k .
