Hi all Nebie from SA

Just brought my first import a few weeks ago. A rough defected R32 GTR. I worked flat out and gave it all the love and money it deserved, Then some cu#t stole it from my GF's mum's driveway. Not to be disheartened tho the very next day I brought a un complied Veilside Combat R32 GTR. That i was going to use the parts off to make the rough one awesome now i think I might keep it for track use and keep out of sight of a$holes.

Welcome to SAU. Sorry to hear about the 32, I had mine broken into about a month ago down at Glenelg down at a mates place while I saw passed out at home down south, only had the car vor about 3-4 months :( Love the Veilside 32 looks great. Hope you find the other 32 unharmed.

it's been over a week and the rough 32 is still missing its prob all been put in a shit box VL by now.

With the Veilside GTR I bought it over the phone on word from a mate and he has no idea (he drives a WRX lol). So you can under stand how happy I was when we turned up with a car trailer and found what looked to be a genuine Veilside Combat (engine in storage but I had been told that). With a huge Trust inter cooler. then I got even happyer when i opened the glove box to find a Autronic and under the bonnet I find some crazy coil packs and adjustable coil over tops, then in the boot I find a huge fuel system with surge tank and twin pumps. Then with help from members we have figerd out that its an Endless demo car, with Veilside kit, wheels and exhaust.banana.gif

Then yesterday its finally time to pick up the engine and I get a RB26 (in bits) with forged pistons, a T88 turbo woot.gif, trust high mount manifold with external waste gate, balanced crank, gear box, flywheel with OS triple plate, adjustable cam gears, grex cams,a head with what I think would be garden hose injectors and a twin feed fuel rail and a light weight anodised crank pulley rofl.gif

I have a lot of work in front of me but I have the time.

    • Yeah good point, it won't flash on indicator that way, so plan B, just another wire to run from under the dash which makes it a bigger job 30 to indicator + globe side 86 tapped into 12v input to flasher relay under the dash (has 12v when indicators on, nothing when no indicators) 87a to headlight parker + 87 to original indicator + chassis side 85 to chassis/earth Now it will flash with indicators and be solid on with parkers
    • FWIW, that's the only colour I'd buy it in
    • I am having issues I believe with the throttle body. The butterflies only open about 1mm on the bench at full throttle. Is this what is supposed to happen? does it use the motor for the rest? I am able to manually open them up the hole way but it sounds like it is on gears.
    • Currently at 380rwkw with 2860 -5's & b cams on e85, trying to make it have a bit more torque/usable power down low.    Ive googled the v cams and most sites say discontinued, is there anywhere you can still get them?
    • Most hardlines are available new still. But unless they're rusted to the point of needing replacement you can just zinc or cadmium plate them to keep them going for decades to come. Regarding the turbo drains it really depends. Braided lines might be better if it's a straighter path than OEM but I would not assume braided teflon lines will never leak. Teflon is a very durable material but you can still abrade, erode, or otherwise compromise its integrity. The return hoses on the bright side are not that hard to access relative to a full turbo removal so if things go wrong you can always put it back to stock. You can very easily drive yourself insane analyzing every little change, or maybe that's just me.
