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

Full R32 GTR front end conversion

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!

    • Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)  
    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.            
    • Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.
    • Wow the colour matched hard top completely transforms the car. Are there any nice front lip options for the car or is that off the table?
    • Generally yes but for some reason I've been ruthless this time around!  I might even need to do another tip run after the way I've finally been able to hit the delete button on shit I've stepped over, stepped around and tripped over for the past 10 years!
