Hey all, I'm bored at work so I figured I'd make a little build thread to document my new 32.

Car was tuned by no other than DVS JEZ who managed to pull 307kws on about 18psi outta her

When I first bought the car I was a little concerned about running this sorta power on a daily but my mate I bought it off had been doing so for over half a year with no problems at all and I trust him and I trust Jez's tune.

But fuuuuuk she was a beast to drive.

So when I first picked her up the speedo didn't work due to the 25 box in it so I went ahead and ordered myself a new navara speedo drive from my parts guy at work, went and bought a little blow torch from bunnings and within the week , voila speedo!

Random chills

Brought it into my workshop a few weeks after owning it and did a full service on it pretty much, tried out a 15/50 nulon fully synthetic, genuine nissan filters, gearbox and diff oil. About a month later I assumed the 25 in her would be pretty much on 100k, so apart she goes, new timing belt, tensioner and idler in, new coolant and she was swell. Should have taken more pictures.

But I blacked everything whilst it was apart

Then one day it started smoking when it came on boost, like bad.. filling the cabin suffocating smoke bad.. I checked the oil and coolant levels and the oil smelled like burnt dick so I figured I'd change it and try another oil to see if it made a difference. Sort of toned it down a little, sort of. But then I took it out for a drive that night, hit boost going up a hill in 3rd, started sounding like a harley, spat the dip stick, spat oil everywhere, game over hahaha.

So currently in the process of sourcing a new 25 to go in it as I just want a quick and easy fix cause I want it back on the road ASAP and dont have time to mess around building it and shit, I am just that stubborn.

Got a box of presents the other day, just building up the things I'll need when this I pick this new engine up.

Just got a genuine oil filter, spark plugs and a new nismo reinforced clutch brake, as mine is held in place with rivets and is bent sideways which pulls the speedo cable out of the cluster if you aren't careful, which is annoying. Looks to be a really back breaking job that I dont really look forward to.
