Looking at an R32 4 door, but know nothing about them, bar they look hot with some rims and a kit.

So, what sort of price can they be had for? I'm not too keen on importing a car under the 15 year rule, unless anyone can reassure me.

What sort of mod's do they need to get into the 12's? I was thinking exhaust, FMIC, turbo (with ext gate of course :) ) and some ECU....

Anyone got any pics of them they can show me?

Budget of $25k. Is this reasonable?

Paul,

Long time no speak. Go and speak to jason aka Tool. He has just brought one in and has just slammed it on 18s. Looks hot. Got his throught Prestige so he might have a few things to tell you about in regards to getting one imported.

As for your budget for 25k...Im gathering that this is for the car as well as the associated modifications?? If so, you should be able to do it. Just go for a decent size turbo, FMIC as you have said, and all of the other basic mods (filter, exhaust etc).

If it still has the RB20DET in it then go for a pair of GTR cams (IN and EX), GTR pump, GTR 444cc Injectors, and adjustable gears, as well as a Power FC. Get this all tuned and you should get some nice numbers.

If it makes around 310ish rwhp that will net you a 12. Daves car has done this with very similar sort of power.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

D

Yeah Dan, been hiding, trying to save money to finish the WRX, but think its time to abandon ship and go back to full time study. :)

Sounds good, I think an R32 4 door in the 12's would be a good fun car.

I will see if I can get in contact with him to have a chat.

Anyone care to advise me a bit about importing? I know nothing of it, but am very wary!

gtst89 - is that price landed, complied and everything?

Any problems fitting 19's? :headspin:

How does this sound?

R32 4 door - $12k?

Turbo - GT28RS? Cheap HKS turbo? Maybe a smaller Innovative Turbo? $2K?

Gate - already got 38 mm Tial

China Manifold - $500?

Exhaust - $1k?

FMIC - $1,500?

Bodykit - $2k?

Rims - $3k?

Suspension - $1,500?

Microtech - $1,500?

Fuel system - $1,500?

Clutch - $1,000

$27k....

Exhaust - hopefully the car will already have one. So that saves you some money.

Fuel System - Hopefully wouldnt be 1,500. GTR injectors can be had for $300, then just upgrade the pump ($300) then maybe a reg.? Easily under 1k.

Be careful with the clutches....Dave and I, as well as JiMiH from these forms have had bad troubles with clutches. We have all broken the clutch pedal boxes, which require re welding once ****ed up. This happened to me the other day at a major intersection, middle lane, clutch pedal box broke.....no clutch. Had to get it towed.

So I suggest getting it beefed up when you put a big clutch in it.....just incase it sticks you up

      Car Rotisserie

      By Shoota_77 · Posted

      Hi guys, has anyone either purchased or built themselves a rotisserie for their car before? I can only just justify the need for one hence why I should just make one but at the same time, if I make one I can kiss another 4 weeks of potentially productive car working time goodbye because I'm building a bloody rotisserie....  I mainly want it for the application of the body deadener.  Cleaning the old stuff off, priming and then colour over the deadener doesn't worry me, it's just the application using the Schutz Gun that I feel would achieve a significantly better finish painting it side on and keeping the Schutz Gun upright.  I don't think they would work well on the side let alone almost upside down for some areas.  If the product I use (Terosun, etc) could work through a HVLP ok then it might be ok to apply without the rotisserie.   I can get one of these style ones for about $1200 which is pretty good value-     I reckon if I made one it would cost around $500 but it's more the time that it would take is more of a killer than the cost.  They look to hold their value pretty well second hand so I could always sell it after using it and realistically only lose $200-$300 at worst.  Or keep it and buy another project when this one finally sees the light of day... Anyone selling one...? Cheers!

      Stock rb25det neo questions

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      While it is a very nice idea to put card style AFMs into the charge pipe (post intercooler, obviously), the position of the AFM and the recirc valve relative to each other starts to become something that you really have to consider. The situation: The stock AFM is located upstream the turbo, and the recirc valve return is located between the AFM and the turbo inlet, aimed at the turbo inlet, so that it flows away from and not through the AFM. Thus, once metered air is not metered again, neither flowing forwards, or backwards, when vented out of the charge pipe. When you put the AFM between the turbo outlet and the TB, there is a volume of pressurised charge pipe upstream of the AFM and there is a volume of pressurised pipe downstream of the AFM. When the recirc valve opens and vents the charge pipe, air is going to flow from both ends of the charge pipe towards the recirc valve. If the recirc valve is in the stock location, then the section between it and the TB doesn't really matter here - you're not going to try to put the AFM in that piece of pipe. But the AFM will likely be somewhere between the intercooler and the recirc valve, So the entire charge pipe volume from that position (upstream of the AFM, back through the intercooler, to the turbo outlet) is going to flow through the AFM, get registered as combustion air, cause the ECU to fuel for it, but get dumped out of the recirc valve and you will end up with a typical BOV related rich spike. So ideally you want to put the AFM as close to the TB as possible (so, just upstream of the crossover pipe, assuming that the stock crossover is still in use, or, just before the TB if an FFP is being used) and locate the recirc valve at the turbo outlet. Recirc valve at the turbo outlet is the new normal for things like EFRs anyway. In the even of a recirc valve opening dumping all the air in the charge pipe, pretty much all of it is going to go backwards, from the TB to the recirc valve near the turbo outlet. But only a small portion of it (that between the TB and the AFM) will pass through the AFM, and it will pass through going backwards. The card style AFMs are somewhat more immune to reading flow that passes through them in reverse than older AFMs are, so you should absolutely minimise the rich pulse behaviour associated with the unavoidable outcome of having both a recirc valve and an AFM in the charge pipe.

      Yep, in my case as soon as I started hearing weird noises I backed off the tension until it sounded normal again. Delicate balance between enough tension to avoid that cold start slip and too much damaging things.

      I'm almost at a point where I feel like changing the alternator. Need to check the stuff you mentioned first though.
