I think more threads like the dry sump one would be beneficial to create conversation and information.

Threads would have to be specifically Motorsport orientated.

Kinda like the Bruce ducting thread and the cooling thread that are going at the moment in other sections

well i was hoping to be apart of this new subforum but the car i was looking at buying was sold before i could look at it. :(

does anyone know of a clean caged r32 or r33 gtr rolling shell sitting around doing nothing?

there are always cheap shells rolling around...I'd talk to Brad or Fatz in the first instance, they both keep their ears close to the ground. An excellent 33 gtr roller with lots of good stuff was just sold cheap....but that doesn't really help you.

Ben, if it's just a case of editting the title etc I can do that, pm me the details, otherwise the easiest will be for you to copy into a new thread and make the changes

I have a 32R at work at the moment which is being parted out and the owner does want to sell the shell.

It's a touch rough around the edges and has a 4130 drag type cage in it. Could be cut out and Redone easily enough.

    • At this point I'm just 'hoping' it's the turbo seals. I did speak to someone who said it's normal for these turbos to have a bit of axial play? Not gonna lie I've never checked a turbo for axial play before but you could hear it tapping a bit as I moved it back and forth. Surely that's too much? My theory is (could be completely wrong), bad axial play, worn bearings, bad seals, oil into dump/compressor side, burns in exhaust = blue smoke. On a timing belt related note, my crank pulley was missing that front plate that sits in front of the timing belt. It's that metal round plate. It did have the rear one, and the woodruff keys are in the crank which was nice. Can anyone confirm if the NEO det engine has a front plate, im sure it would to protect the front of the timing belt or something. Water pumps...the pump I got was an NPW (yes grill me if I should've got a genuine one lol). It has a smooth mating surface, kit came with a pretty pathetic looking paper gasket. Do I need to use any RTV or just trust the gasket will work because its a smooth mating surface? Cheers legends have a good Easter break!
    • Cheers man, I thought the same.   Bit of an update on it all. It was definitely blue smoke, not grey after all. It didn't really smell oily but it was blue after all. Also puffing just the smallest amount on idle with no throttle.   I ended up pulling the intake and exhaust off and there was around 3mm of axial play on the turbo shaft. So I figured we'll that's buggered and sent it off to get hi-flowed at hypergear. Haven't got it back yet.   I haven't compression tested it yet. Had a look in the cylinder and cylinder 1 spark plug, looked a bit sooty but not oily. Then I've just started doing my timing belt because it's age is unknown.
    • In that case it is probably stock. It lives in the navigator side footwell behind the plastic trim just in front of the a pillar.
    • Good question, I don't really know tbh...I'm pretty stock thought, where could I check this?
    • This. I'm confused by the whole discussion. The only reason you would have a car with e85 only if it was track use and you only ever used e85. All other use cases you add a flex fuel sensor, do the flex tune (you only need to do a couple of % and then interpolate the rest) and then you put whatever the hell you feel like including a mix in the tank and it just works. Want a long drive? fill with 98 Want max zoom? fill with e85 Got a half tank of 98 then find e85 somewhere? Throw it in.
