Honestly you aren't likely to get a real response until you actually start building an r32gtr with a vr38.

In all reality you could get more power and torque for half the price.... but who doesn't love a nicely tuned vr38?

Lastly, the engine is barely half the reason an r35 gtr is fast.... its the gearbox, suspension, weight, width, aero and electronics that all work together that make it fast. If I was to look at doing it, I would try and start with a wrecked r35 and transplant as much of the r35 as possible into a wide body r32gtr shell.

i though you said over and out,

I thought you said you already measured?

Vote to move thread to wasteland where it belongs

Edited by MagicMikeZ32

read carefully, i measured the engine bay

and the RB engine

Oh cool! So you know that an engine that came in a car will fit in the car it came out of?

Or something

it might be hard for you to understand

but you need to know how big the hole is,

and then you need to have a reference point for the front diff

so it helps to measure a standard engine

mate its people like you that persecuted galileo

I like good ideas as much as the next guy.

Here is 1 for you. Buy a 35.

At least you'll be able to drive it.
Either way, this isn't a build thread.

where is the fun in that

You need to know what you want first.

Dedicated drag car?

If you want it on the street and be able to turn a corner without the need of a football field size turning circle.

That car can't turn it goes in straight lines.

My 2c

i read all of this and all i got was, u wanna build an illegally modified car to race on the street like a moron and making the cops get tougher on modified cars. so why would anyone want to offer helpful advise so u can make our lives harder??

i also vote to move this thread as its not a build up or project.

I like the idea - go for it! I do have a different approach for you to consider. Graft the R32 shell onto the R35 floorpan... Not an impossible task.

Just look at the Nissan juke for inspiration as to what can be achieved. Good luck with it :-)

    • Oh wow, it's easy to forget how cheap these can be. Probably the cheapest way to travel. Though people in cars here tend to be morons and I would not feel very safe. Were scooters ever big in Australia? It used to be the thing growing up in Europe ~20 years ago. 50/70/125ccm Peugeot or Yamaha and some others. Utterly obnoxious Polini race exhausts. Kick stands that slant as much as possible. So loud. So much noise for really not moving very fast at all. But it felt cool at the time. Not sure where I'm going with this, but there is an aftermarket for mopeds! Though I'd have pictured you more for a Goldwing kind of guy after growing out of the Harley.
    • You need to know I am sorry for this.  
    • As the MX5 isn't apparently "manly" enough, and I need something for runs to the local shops, and also take to my part time job at the salon, basically I can keep the MX5 away from car parks and stuff......like "flying lockers", I was wondering what I could buy to fix this issue LOL, I pick up a new Yamaha 125 Delight this arvo from Trooper Lu, basically a R1 that you can fit a slab of beer on between your feet, also, it was $29400 cheaper than a R1, so actually it's 2 x better than a R1    
    • Nah. H2S. H2S is "rotten egg gas", which is what is associated with no cat. SO2 is equally nasty, and if you've ever smelt it you'll know all about it. More of a choking, acid in the back of the throat sort of thing. But you can only smell it in a narrow range up to about 1ppm. Above that, it irritates your mucous membranes, but you don't smell it.
    • Kicked the 34 in the guts, she won’t be seeing the road till I get the 31 mobile again.  wont be long and she’s a bit of a garage princess anyway haha
