Hi guys,

I came accross someone selling this the other day, and i've never seen it before on a R32 skyline, GTR, GTS-T or GTS4. It looks like an extra piece that sits in the centre console box, with possibly 2 switches and a money compartment. It can't be seen on the FAST program diagram for the centre console box for R32 models.

Any Nissan Guru's out there have any idea what this, or where to get it? or was it optioned on any of the R32 models.

Thanks

Could be wrong but that looks alot like an R33 GT-R Centre console. The little coin tray bit is the giveaway in my opinion. Would be cool if it was for a 32 though because it would be a pretty rare item. Pity its sitting in the rain in that pic haha

Yea I still have no clue what it is. I just saw it for sale somewhere and thought someone might know, Its def a R32/R33 console. Just be cool to know if its custom, or some type of cool factory option haha.

Yeah it's for a cd stacker or something. I got one in my 32. I removed all the wiring when i put in my headunit. Top left switch for mine was a turbo timer, but it was fried so I hooked the switch up to the tv and now its a on/off switch to use with the handbrake. That hole is ment to be a LCD display. But I haven't seen that nismo thing before.

      They care about emissions, and cost the most. Save weight where possible, and make manufacturing easier. Less material also let's the engine transfer heat to water quicker, and bring the engine up to temp quicker, better for emissions and getting them past their warranty period.

      I was under the impression the reason why OEMs are going with solutions like relatively thin "right-sized" cylinder walls with technologies like PTWA and open deck is because they care a lot about whatever marginal knock margin benefits they get from that vs the structural rigidity benefits of a closed deck block and thicker cylinder walls. I also see some weird stuff like plastic inserts in the water jacket around the cylinders to try and equalize cylinder wall temperatures. re: the PRP blocks and heads at the end of the day it's hard to know what is and isn't going to work there, just have to see what the initial buyers say about it.

      Which is why I didn't mention that hardness testing, and specifically mentioned the bore and deck thickness testing. Yeah, not really. The bore temperature will be a lot more even around the top half inch or so, where the material distribution is dominated by the deck, and which is the only place where the bore surface temperature heating any gas in the cylinder is likely to have any effect on detonation. Think about it. Another inch or so down the bore, you might have a hotter spot. The gas there might get a bit hotter, then the piston rises squeezes that gas away from there at high speed and mixes it with other gas from nearby. Instant dilution of the problem. I'd be surprised if it was an issue at any time other than in racing engines or OEM dev engines being run at the ragged edge of tuning. Say what now?

      https://dsportmag.com/the-tech/education/engine-tech-material-hardness-testing/ The PRP testing on block hardness I'm not sure how much it actually can be trusted. The thinner cylinder walls on RBs is a bit of a problem vs 2JZ but it really depends on the design goal. Siamesed cylinder bores like a 2JZ cause uneven cylinder wall temps too, which means a bit of distortion induced by that + the hotspot can affect knock margin. Something that actually gives me a bit of pause with the PRP block, whether super thick cylinder walls are going to keep it from being drop-in compatible on an otherwise OEM rebuild.

      Yeah very valid point. I am waiting for one of the other tuners to come back from vacation so he can help me a bit when the cat is installed again. In the meantime I am going to finish up my polishing and ceramic coating that I have started myself.    N45 Dr Beasley product is highly recommended for a paint primer / polisher. Using this EXO Gtechniq also for the ceramic but next time might use the light serum before hand also. Looks great.
