hey all

currently in the middle of doing up my R32gtst

Im not after a car that will be 1million kws (thats what my track cars for), what i am looking for is an engine bay that is show car clean and tidy.

Im after some inspiration of what i can do, move or remove.

So far ive moved the battery to the boot, moved the fuse box under the guard, looking to move the break lines around, im thinking of moving the washer bottle and over flow but may just get items made instead. Have also cleaned a heap of holes up and currently filling seam joins etc. but its hard no i have the engine removed to see what i could have done!

any pics of clean bays? and other ideas to move / remove stuff from the bay...

Mines track car yes but not full hetik on the engine bay and relatively clean, you might see something there you think might suit

battery moved 

canisters on the right near the intake for coolant overflow and p/s fluid

brake lines are braided yes - one still runs across top

neat wiring loom and tucking it away is key

Mine is a jack of all trades master of none. It's a bit old school by today's standards but I did start the engine bay "transformation" about 17-18 years ago!

The LED light is very old school rice spec but I only added it as a temporary idea for static displays. 20190210_150846.jpegScreenshot_20190210-132511_Gallery.jpeg

My eyes, so much 2001 in one photo :P.
 
 
 
......Bring back the 00's I say - neon everything!
It certainly isn't on trend, black is the new black these days, but I've never been one to follow trends.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) clogged cat

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      Hey everyone, This is my first post apart of the introduction. I tried searching a bit on the forum but couldn't really get a straight answer. I got the car to my mechanic as I felt it being weak. It seems that it was missing on two cylinders due to the injectors. I had all my injectors clean and the car runs much better. The mechanic also confirmed my suspicions that the cat is clogged and needs to be tackled asap. The cat rattles a bit and the hot exhaust warning frequently lights up when driving after getting the injectors clean. In my introduction I was asked about what modification I might be interested in and mentioned a cat delete. From what I was told, this is not really beneficial on the RB20DE and there are more cons than pros.  Could perhaps anyone give some suggestions on what the best course of action would be since the current cat is toast and needs to be removed/replaced anyway? I can also sometimes smell a strong smell of fuel, but I'm not sure if this is related.

      255 can't go wrong with the price.

      When I was replacing my pump due to being stranded in the wrong state, I went with the Deatschwerks 320lph kit. It is a direct plug in to the stock wires, harness, everything. It comes with a plug... but you can plug the OEM plug directly into this thing. https://justjap.com/products/deatschwerks-dw300-fuel-pump-nissan-s13-silvia-r32-r33-r34-skyline-c34-stagea?currency=AUD Downside: Won't actually flow that much on boost if you want to push it on E85, but it's comparable to the 040/255 etc. Little more actually.

      I dunno what the "best" one is....but when my 040 died late last year, after about 20 years of screaming service....I put in a 255. Like any such thing, you have to finagle it a little bit - it's not a no-brain swap. But it's not hard.
