R32 Gtr

[dan_32gtr]

Hey all

I have an r32 gtr and want some advice on how to keep it within the 'stock' limits... so far it has a k&n a/f, x-force dumps & front pipe, std cat, and blitz nur cat-back sys. without the x-force pipes etc on it, it made 250rwhp (184rwkw) on standard boost.. hoping for 270rwhp with the x-force gear on it....

will i need to change the exhaust etc before selling it (within 2yrs) to be able to advertise as a nice, stock example??

any help would be great..

If you've already modified it, why are you going to sell it as a stock example...?

How are you gonna feel when you advertise your car as stock in 2 years time and i bring this thread back up...? If you are going to be dishonest, at least be smart about it.

A decent exhaust is a bonus on any car bought. Enjoy your car for how long ever you will than advertise it as it stands. If it's still in good condition and passes the buyer's tests, you don't have to lie about anything.

Just advertise it as it is. Stock with full exhaust and air filter.

Most people would pay more for this than pure 100% stock anyway as these are the first things they're going to want to do to the car and they don't really compromise reliability.

yeah thanks guys.. good info for us...

any possible cheap upgrades that one would recommend?

[Blitz]

Removal of the boost restrictor, and if you have a full exhaust with the stock cat, replace the cat.

Thats a start

[ferni]

yep as blitz says, remove boost restirctor and replace cat... will go much harder... but more chance of turbos letting go at higher boost... having said that i ran mine without it for ages with no problems.

You dont realy expect a 32 gtr to have the restrictor still in do you ?

I think you will find its been removed many moons ago !!

[dan_32gtr]

yeah.. i've just had a look and the boost restrictor (little brass plug with a 3mm hole in it??) is still in the line around a yellow stripe... i had it dynoed at 250hp at the rear wheels on standard boost!

ill look into getting a high flow cat.. i read in zoom that the standard one is quite good though... either way.. thanks heaps guys

[GTRsean]

look at getting the magic 4" type cats that flow more than a 3" high flow, dump pipes that divide wastegate gasses from turbine outlet

Not cheap things though.

K&N filter if you have stock airbox.

NGK iridium tip plugs

under drive pulley kit?

(power to weight ratio) take any extra weight out of your car, passengers, seats, dont run any more than 1/2 tank of fuel
