Hey guys ive got a r32 gtr im building up and just chasing a bit of advice from peoples previous failures

My plan is too make 360-370rwkw on factory pistons/rods

Firstly its a 94 r32 with the long nose crank and pull type gearbox ,

So far i have tackled the oiling problems by buying

Tomei oil pump , trust sump extension and im also going to run restrictor but im wondering if anythibg else can help?? Antidamper ballancer ? Head drain etc??

Its a simple setup ive got 2860-5's jun 264 9.5 cams metal head gasket arp studs etc

On the fuel side of things is bp98 sufficient? Or do i need e85 or water meth running nistune z32 afm spitfire coilpacks etc!!! Im aware the moror will break eventually just trying to rule out fuel tuning oil failure!! Any advice appreciated!!

Heya DATO,

I made 340rwkw on 20psi after a simple rebuild of the factory 26 (hone, rings and bearings)

Didn't require boring or decking. BUT I did balance it.

As long as it has oil pressure and a good tune, it should rule out the majority of excuses to go bang.

Maybe consider breathers from your sump to your cam covers? (similar to 'head drain' mod, but cheaper with same result)

Mark :)

    • This was a huge help.  We followed the steps,  although shifting into 2nd was actually into 3rd for us,  and 1st was into 2nd ( steps 9 and 11) .  The long flash was the 4th flash.  So shift solenoid A is possibly the culprit.  Is this inside the transmission itself? Or is it accessible by just front the pan? Or is it bolted to the outside of the transmission?  Thanos for your help everyone
    • Can you enlighten me on your best practice regarding these hoses? I don't wanna make the same mistake if you already got a better solution.
    • I have some silicon hoses already, for example engine to watercooler. But yeah, I get the sentiment. The lower intercooler silicon hose is drippy too, despite not being very old. Does anyone except Nismo make these same lines out of rubber? Long term I think they'd be the better replacement, especially since the car won't live as hard a life anymore as in the past nor be driven as often.
    • I know most issues are just age related. But for example the turbo oil drains, there is dash adapters for these and you can just make a braided teflon line for them and (probably) never have them leak again. Also not terribly expensive. Can you even get the factory hardlines from new? Or are they repairable if they break?
    • I know it'd be much much easier with the tool. I hope I can find one that won't take 3 weeks to get to me an isn't a "Asian models kit" that has tons of (to me) useless adapters for a load of cash.   It's a summer project/fun car. I do wanna enjoy it, without endless downtime over and over. So yeah I would even go and buy an engine crane + stand to save myself the trouble of hard to reach or unreachable places going bad later on. Would also be a good opportunity to put on a Fluidamper, renew the mains seals and stuff like that. I have some money on the side that I can use for that, what I wouldn't want to or be able to do is let everything be done by a shop or have my engine completely rebuild right now. I intend to do most of the "doable" jobs myself. Pulling an engine can't be that hard, can it?
