Gh05t's 32 Gtr Daily Cleanup

[Sinista32]

Any of those will be great, except the Gates

PE, Trust or even Nismo

[JH32]

So you recon genuine?

OEM stuff is fine, though unless you need the gear urgently I'd shop around as I've never found these guys to be particularly competitive on pricing.

Wouldn't recomend the n1 water pump, has a habit of causing over heating in traffic situations

[GH05T]

Well tbh i havnt looked around yet but under 400 for the full genuine kit with a water pump seems decent to me?

I reckon that's a pretty good deal mate, I had both the normal and N1 water pumps in my old 32, negligible difference in temp on the hand controller between the 2, and no problems with either

I've got a gates belt on the 34 at the moment, 30,000 on it so far with no dramas. Went with a standard water pump over the N1

I think the fact that it's all genuine would tie in well with your build too

clutch pivot ball is squeaking like crazy, got under the car to have a look.
being damn holiday i coudnt get to the shop to buy lube. what lube should i get? something heavy, heavier than wd40 i read.

also as you can see, for some reason i dont have a rubber boot on the fork. hoping its not full of shit i there but i cant be bothered pulling the box out if i dont have to.

anyway to the point, listen to this...make you cringe??
what do you think, is it f**ked or will a lube be ok for a while?

also im assuming i just spray grease here and keep pressing the clutch unill it goes away, is this the contact point or is it the other side, i cant quite see.
i dont wanna be spraying grease on the clutch.
which looks like an exeedy by the purple




more questions, im trying to work out what bits my car has,
these look like old TEIN coilovers yes?
sorry the photos are shit as i dont have a hoist, just under the car.





Also im trying to work out if that is a small cat or if its just a decat pipe, is there an easy way to find out?
and these look like stock front pipes?

[SiR_RB]

Not sure about the gearbox squeak

But they look like after market mild steel front pipes and a 3" stainless decaf like the just jap ones, had one on my old gtr but you won't know for sure till you check inside the cat

[GH05T]

Im guessing decat, car throws flames when being booted, so said the guy behind me anyway lol

[GH05T]

ok, looks like im gonna actually have to address the tires situation before i get the new wheels.




Im still blown away how the car can handle on this sort of shit.

oh yeah, then this happened.
all i can say is its kinda a tradition.




and just cos i like looking at my own car, some expert phone picks

[WantGTR]

give me your boot carpet!!!

some clown thought it was a good idea to cut mine up!

[GH05T]

the carpets fairly hammered, as is still under the turf

[SiR_RB]

Lol grass

[GH05T]

clutch squeek is sorted For now.

Took my C pillar out to see if it was repairable and its completely f**ked and fallen to bits, looks like ill finally have to buy another one. Grrr.

Now, how the f**k do I release the bottom clasps to release the back seat (bottom section.) Holding the wire loops On the floor close to the front.

tiny update

sick of the standard bent and generally not fitting numberplates.
was gonna get the xx black plates but they have gone to YY plates which look odd.

so ordered some custom plates which i always thought would suit a gtr.



get it?

im not usually a fan of custom plates but i don't mind something that the very occasional person would get. plus they come in square rear and slim front and are black.

[okooko]

i had to google it haha...

not bad!

[Anfanee]

wait so does the square not need cutting to fit?

[GH05T]

its not as wide

[Anfanee]

gah wish we had that here

[k_d]

Nice plates. Takes me back a little
