The ever evolving R32 GTR build

Love the fitment of the n1 boot lip.

Not too much in the way of updates as I've been working remote a bit lately.

Have had the driveshaft's overhauled and had it back on the dyno chasing more midrange which was successful.

Now just trying to enjoy her for the moment, a few pics from the weekend taken by a mate.

[mr_rbman]

not done a hell of a lot, just actually been driving and enjoying her without having to fix anything.

Added another car to the stable...a Sil80.

Will use this for doing the things I'm now too soft to do in the GTR

Needs a bit of work but couldn't knock it back for the $$$ already has blacktop SR20, R32 GTR brakes (5 stud) etc...

5 - Removed my front Bilstiens as one had begun to leak and have sent them off to Quadrant suspensions in Victoria for a rebuild (significantly cheaper than anyone here in Adelaide )

 

 

Just out of interest what is the model number of the Bilsteins and how long is the shock body?

[PranK]

Shit yeah. Loving that Sil80.

Picked up some Enkei RPF01's in exact same sizes as my Rays Impul RSII's (18 x 9.5" +15 all round), bit of an impulse buy.

Love my other rims in the flesh but black on grey doesn't look the best in photos, Love the gold enkei's in photos but unsure about them in the flesh, mmmmmm.

Put my other rims up for sale but probably won't be too disappointed if they don't sell.

ive got the same in matte black - those are the best straight up fit for the r32

love the offsetting colors

what rubber you got on those?

LOVE THE WHEELS MAN, SUCH A GOOD SIMPLE DESIGN WHICH FITS THE 32

They came with some plain almost brand new Achilles ATR sports but I'm trying to move them on and have ordered some Nankang NS-2R semi slicks, the reviews they get seem to be hard to go past for a weekend warrior which sees the odd hillclimb for <$150 a corner.
