Nice! Make sure you have a good read through the different topics, heaps of good information! Hahah yer true! I'm yet to go to a track, just sorting out little things with the car first. I'm 19 mate, I think my profile has that Info... I'm located in larrakeyah, which is just near the Darwin CBD.

Are you gonna drive it back up here?

Also what kind of r32? Mods? Etc

Completed the drive! All went well with no issues! Conveniently I arrived in Alice Springs the night before the open speed limits were brought in ;) Was goooooood fun!

I'm having an issue with my car now, when I run the same boost as I was running in Adelaide, it backfires and hesitates, this decreases when I turn down the boost but I want to sort this issue out!

I've narrowed it down with some brain storming to an issue where it's not getting enough fuel, hence running lean. First thing I did then was replaced the fuel filter and it seems to be running better but the issue is still there.

The guy I bought it off couldn't tell me the last time the sparks were replaced so I am yet to do that. I'm thinking maybe injectors are blocked? Won't be back in Darwin till the end of the month so have a few things that I'm ordering for it so I can have a fiddle when I get back :D

I'm Harrison btw haha, 18 and live in Bayview.

Car is a 1993 R32 GTST grey mods include:

RB25 turbo upgrade

440cc Injectors

Greddy 2 stage boost controller

Tein super street coilovers

Unknown aftermarket exhaust

Turbosmart Plumb back BOV

R32 GTR FMIC

HKS POD filter

Adj rear camber arms

Front GTR strut brace

Drifttek 17's

And semi slicks on the back (they don't like water haha)

Guys, can one of you tell me a good place in Darwin to get my rims powder coated? Also where do you recommend to get a quality respray done?

Hey man! Ummm i used KC Customs for my front bar respray - They super good and have good quick turn around, not sure if they powder coat but they repair gutter rash and i'm sure can help you out! Defs full respray go to KC customs - Ask for Christian Butler and tell him Harrison with the R32 bar he painted sent you. What's your name? Do you come out to TC often? Would be keen to meet with ya if I haven't already met you!

    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
    • Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
