Kebab_Drifter's R32

[KEBAB_DRIFTER]

Hi Ppl

My name is Mick and this is my R32 GTST

I have owned plenty of cars althou this is my first import

03 XR6TURBO 455rwhp , 4 Vl calais turbo's one a calais aero turbo , supercharged 929 mazda

To cut a long story short i bought this car and went to register it and came back with the fact that the engine in the car had been stolen and not yet recoverd..,,,, see here : http://www.skylinesa..._1#entry5764020

Car was stock with just a cat back exhaust and 19'' rims

Any way i decided to purchase a new engine from silver gtst off the forums so i ended up with a low k (98,***) auto RB20DET travelled down to sydney and picked up the engine hoping for a decent running engine it was already out of the car.

OK so now i had the task of swapping the engines over and doing a major service on my new engine , timing belt ,water pump, crank seal , spark plugs , belts alot easier doing it out of the car (first time doing a major service btw)

ok so old engine out next to the new one

Can you tell which is my new motor? haha

Time to fit up my China spec turbo , now i bought this turbo from a factory in the midddle of china and the same guy makes crankshafts , cant be to bad can it? lol

as you can see big differece from stock althou i need to port the wastegate hole which i didint do while it was out

So while the bay was empty i installed a gktech solid steering bush and removed the aircon

The clutch didint look to healthy to while the gbox was off the engine i bought a Exedy hd clutch (nothing to serious , rb20 boxes are like glass imo) and had the flywheel machined

time to remove the auto spigot PRICK of a thing ok so all was bolted back together and started to think about installing my new engine

Bought a GTR fibreglass front bumper , car had a m spec bumper on it when i bought it

ok so after a weekend or 2 i had a running car

Time to get some rego and drive the thing

Had a little bit of fun at a ghetto skid pan nothign big as this was not long after i got it all running

Looks good mate, haha i rebuilt one of these with my brother once, it started and expected to do the same thing, a engine swap and do major service on the new engine, then while searching we ended up buying a rb25 and building it to a 300kw motor hahaha. and it was alot longer then a couple of weeks

[KEBAB_DRIFTER]

So i replaced the stock dump pipe with a 3'' bellmouth

increased the spool time as the turbo is quite big and a little laggy , nothing a clutch kick doesnt fix LOL

So while the motor was getting installed i replaced the timining belt and water pump (big job for a first timer)

in went a new 52mm radiator , and would you know it big lauch and the fan hit the radiator smashed it to pieces and broke my new water pump $$$ later had it going again

Picked up a genuine N1 GTR bumper , these things are so much bigger and bulkier then the fibreglass copys , only problem is its missing an intake vernt but im chasing one up

gave it a coat of paint in the shed

[KEBAB_DRIFTER]

Ok , so a bit of an update ran a set of EUROLINE 18x9 +20 front 18x9 +20 rear for a little while

ran some 19x8 30 somthing offset BBS MESH C1 copies plus polished the car up and can see the genuine gtr front bar

Got some aftermarket mirrors from GKTECK.COM

Bought some Rota grid r in gunmetal 18x9 +25 with a 8 mm slip on front and 18x9.5 +25 rear and got some low

Tien HR Coil overs maxxed out

[adamskill]

man it looks mad with the rotas! glad to see there is no chrome anymore

[toffy]

Nice car bro , so what did you end up doing about the stolen motor?

[RBish]

good job, cars looking good.

[DVS JEZ]

Hurry up and get that real motor fitted. Then skids

[hixi126]

Looks clean bud good job

[KEBAB_DRIFTER]

I then installed a nistune got some gtr injectros highflowed z32 afm and a tune

then drove the pants off it

realised the ebay turbo wasnt doing the rb20 any justice i bought

and a retune by JEZ

HKS 25/35 turbo

[duffinz]

Good power for a 20 pulls hard!

[KEBAB_DRIFTER]

Ok so i fitted up some parts dumped it and maxxed out the tein coilovers

Crusing down the road spot an unmarked hwy was about 1 mins from my house and got pulled up in my driveway and got defected for wheels to wide , sticking outside the guards too low exhaust and airbox

somthing diff

[KEBAB_DRIFTER]

Decided to buy myself a present Mint S2 RB25

Perfect turbo to go with it HKS 30/37 Pro S .87 rear housing internal gate

old turbo on the 20 hks25/35 double the hp

awesome wgate design should flow well

nice dumpsetup and clutch im running

installed SARD 550 injectors

thought if im going to do it ill do it properly and bought my self a r33 gearbox and got a custom tailshaft made up

installed and wired it up myself got it running

took it to DVS JEZ to get the dumpipe modded and External Msd switch wired up then tuned , was asked what results id be happy with and my reply was 260rwkw or 350rwhp . now i knew this turbo had produced some good numbers from the previous owner 350ishrwkw forged RB25 E85

Fingers crossed

HI BOOST VS LOW BOOST

RB20 VS RB25

Huge difference it went well with the rb20 ! Cheers DVS TUNING (JEZ)

fitted a roof lip and led taillights

some sweet sideskirts

Hicas lock bar

Camber arms

removed paint off rims and gave a quick polish

Goes hard lights up 3rd no worries ITS A BEAST

looks like a gtr here

At the moment there is a huge defect blitz in newcastle ''Operation hammer ''

so im trying to run under the radar sleeper spec what do you think?

gtr lip off

sideskirts off

pods off

all stickers off

stockies with big tyres

airbox

Time for a drive ......
