Wishlist/Coming Soonish List:

Repair to dent from a bad driver

Fit Sparco seat

Install new dials

Install new gear/Hbrake boots

Bigger sway bars

Better rotors/pads/brake lines

Fit HICAS lock bar

Get annoying alignment issue fixed.

THEN I'll start thinking about more power (currently ~200atw).

When it's on the road, i really enjoy driving it.

The only thing I REALLY want is for it to just be a reliable daily driver. Not really a hard ask...or is it...from an 18yo car...

Other bits and pieces would be stuff like better stereo as mine is absolutely shocking and maybe nicer wheels - but not essential. Also thicker sway/roll bars.

Yeh i hear ya. I want a little bit more from my 32 gtr but i really enjoy having a reliable ride that i know exactly whats going on with it.

Apexi power fc / tune for better fuel econ

Cam gears

flushed injectors

Tinting

Exhaust thats not falling apart

Bilstein suspension package on here

Headlights that actually illuminate something

Turbos that arent 18 years old

Some lighter wheels

Lighter seats too.. to me it seems r32 gtr seats are excessively heavy

Kaaz diff

4WD adjustable Switch

New clutch

I reckon $11,000 would cover it :S

Oh.. remove HICAS and ABS as well (still considering ABS removal)

In the next 12 months I think i'll do these things (no particular order):

Gearbox + clutch

Fix steering rack leak

Bride drivers seat

Stereo

Castor rod bushes

Rear slotted discs

New pads all round (rb74) + rbf600 fluid flush

Dreaming:

Wheels (18" Work Meister S1)

Cams

1.5 or 2 way LSD

Oil cooler

Harness

I'm happy with my car, but would be happier with...

Work Emotion XD9's in Gunmetal 17x8.5 and 17x9.5 (which im buying once I've done my tax)

Bridgestone RE55s to suit

Rebuild my f**ked leaking front coilover (get them all done while I'm at it)

Half cage with harness mounting points

Sparco Sprint seat (or seats)

So, I'm nearly there...time to ask for a pay rise...

Finally get around to fitting all the crap I've collected over the past few months

just waiting on getting a new fuel pump, the silicon hose from bassjunky's G/B.

Then get it all done in one hit

I've had a FMIC, apexi power fc, Greddy spec II boost controller & splitfire coils taking up space in my room for aaages.

    • Welcome Jan, It's very likely that you are in over your head. You'll just have to learn to swim hard and fast! These old rust buckets have more ways to bankrupt us than almost any other car. But hopefully there's nothing wrong that ruins the whole show! We can help a fair bit. There's plenty here who've been fixing these things for >25 years. cheers
    • Hi all. First off, thanks for reading my post. So end of last season I put the car away knowing I was leaking at least two fluids. One of them being rear turbo's oil. I went to my car recently that is waiting in a garage to take a peek with my boroscope to try and see if I can narrow down the souce of oil before taking it out of storage. What I found is not so great I think. The rear turbo is (probably) leaking from the oil drain. The hose and it's clamps are probably the original ones, so most likely just worn out or loose. However I spotted a line of rust going straight down from the turbo oil feed, as if water leaked out of there at some point. Also explains the red liquid that was dripping from my front subframe, which I initially thought was power steering. I can even see coolant drops hanging off the side of the oil pan as well. After a quick hit on the web I found a select few discussions about porous engine blocks. My question is if the pics of the turbo oil feed and the left hand side of the block (imgur link below) looks like it could be exactly that to you. Maybe someone in the community has seen it before and knows what it looks like. If it actually is a porously leaking block, has anyone attempted at fixing it with simple methods like putting a sealer in the cooling system and using something like jb weld on the block surface, or will it just leak in 2 weeks again? I could not find any detailed info or pictures on this topic. If I need a new engine, tell me softly. https://imgur.com/a/knVvmZ8
    • Hey all. I'm 23 and from Germany, September last year I bought a mildly modded 1995 GTR Vspec. Looks great and was fun so far, but I already have a list of issues of various severity that I need to take care of, potentially growing longer the closer I look. I just hope I'm not in over my head, I really want to keep the car and work towards it becoming great. I hope y'all will help me out in getting there, I am positive I will need help sooner rather than later to figure out how to proceed. greetings, some pics of the car I posted to imgur. https://imgur.com/a/StKkabz
    • Would be interesting what the price would be without the barracuda wheels. Looks like he dropped it down to 40k. Maybe his mate wasn't correct about the 50k evaluation. Has always been a dream of mine to own an auto 33. Looks like I'll have to keep saving my pocket money or ask mum for more pocket money.
    • Thinking about importing a stagea as a family car since i’m getting married this year, thoughts? Me and my fiance both like stageas, but don’t have any experience with them
