Greetings to yet another one of my Build Threads lol

As some as ya'll know I have moved back to Japan and had to Put my Other 3 Builds on hold and in storage.

I've always loved the R32 since I first saw one in Okinawa in 04 but just hated that it only came with a RB20 and getting a GTR was too expensive for a E3,

Due to my Many other pojects I had Originally planned on just getting a GTS-t but after seeing how much it snows up here and finding an awesome Deal on a 1990 GTR (Which I can bring back to the states if and when I leave here) So I bit the bullet and bought it Thanks to my Wife since the dealer never deals with Americans.

Found it In Akita to the west but was unable to go and check it out physically so running a big risk on being a turd. But the pics the dealer gave me looked too good to be true for the price....

Said fuck it and bought it.

Finally got it over to Misawa and had to get it JCI'd so here was when I first saw it.

Came with Apexi N1 Coilovers and Pananasport G7 rims 17x8.5-9.0J with Advan Rubber, RSR Down pipe, Greddy Trust Cat back, GReddy Boost Gauge, Ultra Turbo Timer

Other than that shes bone stock, even has the stock Boost restictor installed

Finally got it back from being JCI'd and Gave it a look over unfortunately i dont have any of my tools so I cant go too deep.

Kinda Old School TT, Couldnt find anything on it on the web.

Plus this bad boy plays 8 bit music when the timer counts down lol

then this awesome cassette player deck

Then HKS EIDS System

uhhhh Nope

Ordered a test pipe
Ordered a M's Intake System

I had a Trust cat back on it but its way too quiet for my liking especially for being a GTR so I ordered a HKS Hi Power and just picked it up from Upgarage ^_^

Sounds and looks alot better but still to quiet for me so when my welder gets here Ill probably cut out the resonator box and weld in a straight pipe.

Installed my M's Intake System.

Really need to strip the engine bay and clean it,

Free HP.

Removed the Stock Boost restrictor

The restrictor is found in the W/G solenoid line Located by the Yellow band

Pop out this little guy and say hello to .09-ish bar boost

Done

Still was boosting only .6 bar.....

Finally Figured out why the GTR had no low end and only boosting .6 bar after the restrictor was removed.

Come to find out the AAC,Knock and IACV plug was disconnected. Never would have noticed unless I didn't redo some Vac lines last night.

Its the back plug, It was just barely undone to where the pins wouldn't connect.

Now she's boosting .9 bar and pulls like it should!

Krusty_s13 · 10-25-2012, 07:09 AM

I want a r32 so bad it hurts.

Chrischeezer · 10-25-2012, 07:18 AM

good to see a nice clean 32

Sileighty_85 · 10-26-2012, 06:11 AM

Thanks Guys, I just wish the under chassis was as nice as the body. 20 years of snow has done a job on the upper floor pans and pinch weld areas

I plan on cutting out the the rust and welding in new pieces but unfortunately the Auto Hobby shop will not allow me to weld cuz the owner is lazy and doesn't wanna get it re-certified for welding. So looks like I gotta go back to my old ways of Parking lot repairs haha

Gonna try to work my way from front to back right now doing Corrosion Control then find a way to weld in new plates

This Sections been repaired with some kinda goop

Driver side rocker panel

Battery Tray area

Painted

You can see the lower rocker panel after I grinded it down

Passenger Side

I was in a hurry so didnt get many pics but it looks like the driver side believe it or not lol

Front section of the fender well

Darren · 10-26-2012, 10:30 AM

There is, I love this car so much. It handles like nothing I've ever driven before.

Stopped by the Nissan dealership for a price quote on new inner and outer rocker panels, I can get all of them for 65,000¥ which is a decent price so I'll probably order them.

Driftwurks · 10-27-2012, 02:44 AM

This car is absolutely beautiful. Keep up the great work!

Thanks, Hopefully It will Stay this way.

Well the project has really slowed down since the Auto Hobby will not allow me to weld in the shop so im kinda stuck at the moment till i can find a place to weld and Paint.

plus waiting on a donor R32 to cut out the floor pans and weld in new ones.

I will be ordering New Rockers from Nissan but holding on to them till i get back tot he states to put them in. In the Mean time i will repair the pinch welds til it gets to the states.

Really upset cuz im still waiting on a HICAS line for the rear that i Order from Canada 2 weeks ago.....

K_style · 11-07-2012, 01:18 AM

You are back to Japan? what about other cars???

future · 11-07-2012, 02:10 AM

So is buying from Nissan when it's a domestic company cheaper? Or is it still I rip like buying American parts here?

Its actually pretty hard to find parts up here, unless you have a Skyline or Subaru. Its pretty country up here, Ive only seen 4 S-Chassis.

Upgarage's selection sucks up here as well, but at least they can order me stuff though.

*Mofuhcka* · 11-08-2012, 07:39 PM

God R32s are so sexy. Good luck with the build, subscribed

sex14 · 11-08-2012, 08:30 PM

Sileighty_85 · 11-08-2012, 08:46 PM

Thanks Guys,

Snows coming soon, so gotta swap on the stockies with snow tires and slap on the stock suspension.

Finally after 3 weeks my Rear HICAS line came in...

*Mofuhcka* · 11-10-2012, 12:51 AM
