hahahaha.

BTW, that's how paint is supposed to look... you can see the trees outside in the reflection of the window, and you can see the mothers quick detailer and paper towels on the shelf LOL... just noticed that

 

Possibly buying a shell tomorrow...

RB25 install over the winter? We'll see.


(gay wheels not included)

 

why's errone gotta jock the blue skyline??? lol, just kidding...

that shit looks nice man, I'm assuming it's a GTST... RB25? sell it, cause that desert eagle guy has his RB26 swap for sale now with a shit ton of extra parts....

sullivanracing06 just pulled the RB26 out of his S13 hatch, and dropped it in his R32 GTST, shit is ILL... making plenty of power... kinda hard to see it, but it's super clean...



mind the excessive size of his air filter... he's compensating for shortcomings in his pants....

plus, if you buy DE's set up, i may trade my big single top mount for the stock twin set up!

 

BZ, I'm in Alberta, Canada. Owned the ninja turtle R32, then wrecked it a while back.

The pictured R32 is a GTST with full suspension(everything. I mean everything.) and currently has a blown RB20 in it that is being pulled tomorrow when I go to look at it.

Plan is to do a RB25 and GT2540 and looking to make 400whp. Just looking to have a street beast that is fun on the twisty's and might get sideways on track days.

 

are you on GTRCanada? i think i've seen that car on there... goddamn that car is GREEN...

good plans on the street beast though, kinda what i'm shooting for with mine, with the occasional track day... although in this day and age my 550awhp goal really isn't all that much when you factor in some of the scoobys, supras, mustang cobras, and some built vettes...

most of those guys are 600+

 

Yeah, I just do a lot of lurking. Yes, she WAS green. It's crushed now. Insurance paid me more than I bought it for too

I've never owned a ridiculously high HP car, and honestly, I've never had the desire to. I've always enjoyed having traction when I want it in something lightweight, but still be able to have a strong pull. Yeah, I won't get the kind of traction you get with a GTR, but I've never been a fan of AWD.

 

my traction sucks, espeically on 215/55 tires LOL....

good thing/misconception about the GTR, it's it's not really a AWD car, and the front diff is an open, so you can (as i have), peg leg burnouts up front... as for the HICAS issue and wanting to get sideways, Tomei makes a locker kit for it, it's a module and a couple locking rings for the rear inner tie rods... easy install and removal for track/daily days...

that, and pull a fuse/wire a switch and you have instant 100% RWD with the capability of going AWD...

i feel you on the never having owned a high hp car, this GTR is the most powerful car I've owned, and even though i'll be getting around 550whp, the current 400 still scares me a bit at times, I'm still weary on going full throttle, i've maybe floored it 4-5 times in the year I've owned it...

 

Still, more things to break, weight distribution is different, and shit is A LOT more expensive.

The last R32 I had made 330whp@1.0bar, and was fun as fuck. 400whp should be enough to scare the piss out of me, and walk on most everything on the street up here. The GT2540 + 550cc injectors, Z32 MAF, and possibly a couple other things should make ~400whp@1.1bar, and spool extremely fast. That was my big issue with my previous R32, the lag from the T28.

 

try the lag from a T61.... hits full boost at 4.5K..

either way, your set up sounds pretty legit, and you should make the power you're looking for pretty easily...

you're right about the 400 walking a lot of cars though... but after a while, you get the bug... every day 400 starts getting slower and slower.... lol...

keep me updated on the new shell... i'd like to see/watch the direction it takes in your hands... GL!
