If so he has had that car for more than a year now!!!

and has used it on the track numerous times.

LOL... About 6 months ago I was going past Phillip and that silver R32 GTR pull out of the car yard and he gave it a bit. Then when he saw me putting along in my GTS-t he gave it heaps, and I mean HEAPS.

Now I'm not sure if it was cold or what, but the amount of black smoke that came out of the exhaust was amazing. It looked like the Batmobile there was so much smoke!!!!

all gtr's either 32, 33, or 34 blow black smoke when hammering (i know i own one) the rb26 motor u could say is similar to a rotary engine by that i mean they love to rev the more it revs the more it burns oil thus u get the black smoke out the back, it's normal u just gotta check the oil and change it regularly.:D

Whytry,

Well I'd have to disagree with you on this. I have owned

a 97 33 GTR-V for 2 1/2 years and currently drive a 92 32

GTR and in all the time I have owned them neither blew

copious amounts of black smoke under load and by that

I mean dancing on the red line. especially the 33.

:)

Neither were heavily modified thou! and when you

start playing with the computers etc they tend to

run pretty rich to protect the engine this adds to the

black smoke "stealth" effect :D

ohh and if your oil is cold any car will blow weed! but

I do know that the silver 32 in phillip is a heavy smoker

all the time!!!

R,

Adrian

Well I got into a R32 GTR and let me tell you.. they are small and tight.... obviously designed for Japanese in mind...a lot smaller than my Mx6.

The R33 is a lot bigger and roomier inside. Even the more open dash plan makes it feel larger. This seems like it was taking into account they may be exported to the rest of the world.

So it's back to the R33 for me... will have to save some more!

I sold my MX-6 yesterday! I had to drive it to the buyers

house, so I went straight form the GTR (32) to the Mazda.

I honestly didn't think that their was that much difference? I guess if you've got a sunroof in the MX-6 open you could stick

ya head out!!! :)

Is anyone interested in a track day?

    • This was a huge help.  We followed the steps,  although shifting into 2nd was actually into 3rd for us,  and 1st was into 2nd ( steps 9 and 11) .  The long flash was the 4th flash.  So shift solenoid A is possibly the culprit.  Is this inside the transmission itself? Or is it accessible by just front the pan? Or is it bolted to the outside of the transmission?  Thanos for your help everyone
    • Can you enlighten me on your best practice regarding these hoses? I don't wanna make the same mistake if you already got a better solution.
    • I have some silicon hoses already, for example engine to watercooler. But yeah, I get the sentiment. The lower intercooler silicon hose is drippy too, despite not being very old. Does anyone except Nismo make these same lines out of rubber? Long term I think they'd be the better replacement, especially since the car won't live as hard a life anymore as in the past nor be driven as often.
    • I know most issues are just age related. But for example the turbo oil drains, there is dash adapters for these and you can just make a braided teflon line for them and (probably) never have them leak again. Also not terribly expensive. Can you even get the factory hardlines from new? Or are they repairable if they break?
    • I know it'd be much much easier with the tool. I hope I can find one that won't take 3 weeks to get to me an isn't a "Asian models kit" that has tons of (to me) useless adapters for a load of cash.   It's a summer project/fun car. I do wanna enjoy it, without endless downtime over and over. So yeah I would even go and buy an engine crane + stand to save myself the trouble of hard to reach or unreachable places going bad later on. Would also be a good opportunity to put on a Fluidamper, renew the mains seals and stuff like that. I have some money on the side that I can use for that, what I wouldn't want to or be able to do is let everything be done by a shop or have my engine completely rebuild right now. I intend to do most of the "doable" jobs myself. Pulling an engine can't be that hard, can it?
