Hi There,

Been on SAU for at least a half a year, never commented on anything just read a whole tonne of posts.

Shoutout to RBN1 and ANTZ whose threads inspired me to buy a 32GTR.

I've been slowly involving myself into the import scene - I've got a 97' Type S 180sx and an 89' K's S13.

After reading a lot about S13's I decided to buy one, and I didnt quite enjoy it as much as I had hoped.

Got a little bored of it, after trying to enjoy it (New paint, box and engine) and now it just sits collecting dust.

I read the threads created by RBN1 and ANTZ and their genuine enjoyment from a car inspired me. Both with 32GTR's.

Hoping to get the same enjoyment from a vehicle as those two did, i decided to buy one of those as well.

After much consideration I contacted J-Spec Imports who helped me in my purchase. Eventually, I got onto a 94 32GTR.

Currently, the vehicle is at the compliance house. But as soon as the vehicle is in my hands.

Ill create a thread about her, and hopefully inspire others to find interest and enjoyment in a car.

Im located in the Penrith (western Sydney) area. If you ever see me out, wave. It could be me or my old man. But we're both friendly.

Welcome Steve!
It does seem you have found yourself a very clean 32R. Congrats!
With motivation coming from Ants and RBN1, I hope to also see a build thread from you :)

Our next meet is on the 16th of Jan out at Penrith Panthers. Hope you can make it.

      How "plug and play" is the Haltech Pro for R33 GTST

      Just had a look, they don't. Fuelling on the base map is purely alpha-N, and the ignition table is MAP. Remember it's just a base map to get the car moving

      Hi everyone, I’m Dave from Canberra. Here's a few pics of my 1992 R32 GTST coupe which I imported back in 2006. Only mods so far are HKS Hi-power cat back exhaust, K&N filter, ATC Volanti steering wheel, Pioneer stereo, amp and sub. This was my daily driver up until 2015 and sadly hasn’t been driven at all in the last 5 years due to marriage, work, and kids taking up most of my time and spare cash.As such its in need of a bit of TLC and one of my goals for this year is to get it back to running condition and maybe look into club/historic rego. I’ve joined SAU so I can ask a few questions along the way (although I promise to google Current Problem +SAU beforehand!)

      From talking to the mx5 guys the NC doesn't actually need bonnet vents like the earlier NA and NB models, due to a better designed cooling system and undertray design There's plenty of them used as street cars and weekend track toys running anywhere from around 170 to 250kw with stock non vented bonnets, I initially was going to get some bonnet vents, but, as they are not actually required, I'll put vents on hold for a while and just monitor temps, though I do need to get something to actually monitor engine oil temps though, coolant temp can be pulled from the OBD2, but the oil gauge in the car is not actual oil temp, it is only a calculation based off coolant temp and RPM ☹️ They do recommend upgrading the radiator, which I have already done with a triple pass, and the only other thing they recommend for a street car is heat management, like I talked about above to protect bits in the engine bay from radiant heat, and to either replace the nearly 20 year old plastic coolant expansion tank, which I have done, or get a aftermarket alloy jobbie for some bling They did also say that if I wanted to track the car on occasion a oil cooler and sump baffle would be required, and as I already have had a sump baffle installed when the engine was out......... I'm going to get a oil cooler with a thermostat....... just in case I do eventually track the car, but probably not, but still maybe...🤪
