Gday guys,

Just bought myself a orange r32 GTS-t after looking for a decently priced gtr for ages with no luck so this is a car for short term. Having some minor issues. Car is currently driving, turbo seems to be working can hear spool and everything. But once boost kicks in acceleration drops instead of gains, seems going from 3000 revs and up takes aaaaages. was told by previous owner timing was retarded, however have fixed that and still no luck.

Could this be a boost leak somewhere? its feeling veeeery sluggish atm. coilpacks? got spitfires in there already but who knows, spark plugs cause this? timing?

Any help would be greatly appreciated to ease my concerns of low compression...

if it was coils then you would hear it misfiring.

sounds like it is most likely either going to be an issue with the AFM or with the CAS. if the CAS is dodgy then it will be backing the timing off. if it is the AFM then it may be either making it run super rich or super lean. there is a small chance there is a leak in the cooler piping somewhere, making it run rich as well. there is also a small chance you have an issue with the exhaust, with either there being a leak in the manifold (most likely caused by some broken exhaust studs), or the cat converter has collapsed. try banging on the cat and if you get a rattling sound then the cat is stuffed.

dear imo, cause u can pick a 25 up for around $1,500 so thats $4,500 to install it when there wouldnt be much in it, engine would line up in same spot ur gear box would mount to the back of the 25, it just the wiring and again wouldnt be that hard for and auto elec

      Uncle Duncan Yeap, FI Interchiller  Works well, normal IAT's cruising with the WTA only went from 50°c+ to 25-30°c with the interchiller  Before, when on it hard, the IAT would see 80-90°c, now, the highest has been was around 38°c IIRC IAT is measured under the blower hat I recommend it for the street or strip where your only on it hard for 10 or so seconds, but it wouldn't be efficient for sustained track use as it would heat soak from the AC turning off or whatever it does during WOT to protect the compressor It really needs the AC running for it to not heat soak and keep the WTA coolant chilled My WTA coolant temps when just cruising is around 2°c

      Hey Mark...sorry to interrupt your career change to hair dressing... but...did you ever fit the interchiller to the commodore, and if so how was it? And, who made it?

      I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......
