Simple & Fun R32 Build

[240sx_sr20det]

After having a few project cars in the states, and never having time to finish anything, figured it was about time to just get something completely stock and DRIVE it while adding things as needed.

Spending the last two years back and forth in Japan, meeting people from all over the world at Matsuri's and driving some amazing tracks, it was clear that a few things were common in the Japanese culture; keep it simple, be prideful of what you have and ENJOY yourself.

With this in mind, I picked up a fairly bone stock R32 GTS-T Type M. It was originally imported by Japanese Car Classics and had since had 2 owners.

It was stock motor, but with some good maintenance done and a few Cusco goodies.

"Cusco front and rear strut bars
Cusco brake cylinder brace
Cusco fender brace
Cusco coilovers
New aluminum radiator
Short shifter
Twin Disc ORC
HKS Air Filter
4.36 welded diff
Adjustable tension rods
New Denso spark plugs, fuel filter and belts
Newer gas tank
Hicas Delete
Fresh alignment
Timing belt, water pump, tensioners and studs were just replaced with all Oem Nissan parts"

I was happy it had a Twin Disc Clutch and 4.3 gears! :naughty:

The day I brought it home.

Toss on my spare wheels, and some interior bits.

The Advan RG1's I had kicking around brought in the style I was looking for, but the 215/235 stagger was gross and gave the car a weird rake. I street drove it around for a week or two like this, and just enjoyed it. I also signed up for a test day with it at Panthera Drift Circuit in West Virginia.

Considering it was bone stock, including stock SMIC, I added some ducting to give the car some hope of having cool air and not heat soaking as quickly.

Signed up for an event at Panthera Circuit in West Virginia. It was a private training facility, but we got the chance to drive it and it was sick! It was the closest thing I've driven to Higashi Circuit at Ebisu.

I added a few things prior - some aero bits because I liked the look; lower lip pieces, and side skirt extensions. Tied things together for me. Also added a hood vent directed towards the intake (thanks for the inspirations Jesse).

The car also got some no name camber arms. Also snagged a few sets of KR20's. I ran these Front and Rear. Great balance!

Brutus loves road trips. He's 7 months and already 85 pounds. My 4runner soon won't be big enough, lol.

West Virginia was cool. We found some mountain roads we want to sneak off to next time we go to a two-day event. There were only 7 drivers at this event on Saturday and 4 on Sunday..it was basically an open practice day.

This track was so damn cool! So much elevation, and you could drive it quick without having tons of horsepower and angle.

It was sweet being able to drive the car down the road to get gas. Definitely nice being reg'd.

I tried uploading the videos, but I think they're still loading. I post most of my videos on Instagram, but I'll upload them to YouTube or Vimeo and then share them here after. @filthy_joe is my username if you're impatient! :lol:

NEXT UP - Atlanta to visit the iTrackMotorsports guys for a Motorland SP Layout.

The Atlanta dudes have some rads cars, so I couldn't help myself and had to skip a session to take some pics. I don't normally edit anything, but I did a few in a style I liked.

Looks like a lot of fun!

Car looks great! Keep it as simple as possible and enjoy it, people get too wrapped up in over-building their cars.

It's so much fun to go back to the basics!

Car looks great! Keep it as simple as possible and enjoy it, people get too wrapped up in over-building their cars.

I'm guilty of this as well. It's refreshing starting over and starting slowly. Get to learn the car so much more in depth; it's nice.

:bow:


I found out where my my car came from, with pics, so that's kind of cool! Check it out!

So, we loaded up, left at 3am and headed 8 hours south to Atlanta!

Ofcourse, it took longer than anticipated, so we got there right as the Driver's Meeting was about to start. Unloaded the 32, cleaned it out, and... missed the meeting. Passed tech with just some electrical tape on the battery terminal (first time being told that).

This event was a BLAST. I haven't had so much fun at an event since my last Nikko day. The Motorland SP layout was well worth the long drive. A Japanese style track, that's actually accurate, allows slower cars to chase down faster cars since the main corner is a deceleration corner and it'ss all about the brake work.This made the 32 even more fun.

A few things came up during the event; I need an oil cooler. The SMIC didn't heat soak nearly as bad as at Panthera. This was much less stressful on the car, but I still want to get the FMIC done before the next event. Angle; I had fun pushing the car as is, but I'm going to add some rack spacers. I'll likely keep the boost at stock pressures, but I picked up some gauges and want to toss them in to keep an eye on a few things.

I ended up making it into the Top 16 Battles, and in the first round went up against FD Driver Dustin Miles. It was such a fun time chasing him down! We ended up going OMT and I spun on my lead entry trying to push a little more, hah! Regardless it was so fun.

It was so much fun pushing this car as is. Trying to get a faster and faster run up to the entry and see how far I could push the stock angle was so exciting.

glad u had fun just stay safe hun

This event reminded me of driving in Japan. Open circuit layout, on a tight technical course...I can't say enough how much fun this was.

The 32 took some damage. Those plastic barriers, they line the track with, are NOT soft, lol. I dragged the rear bumper down the entry barriers and I was shocked that it scuffed and actually left a dent. I told myself to stay off them the rest of the day..

In our battle Dustin gave me a hell of a love tap, and push in the passenger door a bit. I told him tire marks only! Haha! All in all it gives the car some character. I'm going to install a full spec cage now that I have a door ding.. /sarcasm.

Overall the car did great! I could tell something was coming loose in the front suspension and bet it was one of the Camber Arms. Also, I developed a bit of an exhaust leak, but I guarantee it's the downpipes bolts/nuts again. They keep backing off, so I need to permanently solve that problem.

Cruised over to Japanese Car Classics' Open House with the 32. We showed up a few hours after it started and I guess we missed the rush. Still some cool cars though. Brought my camera and snapped some of my favorites. Enjoy!

Looks like a good foundation for a fun street/ track car. Hope to see that it remains presentable and the drift damage gets fixed.

I definitely won’t let it get too out of hand. Going to try and fix a few things after this weekends event.

Back to the road course; Panthera!

Small update - just want to keep this thread alive. Haven't really done much lately; just cruising around with the car.

Added a FMIC, and some heat reflective tape to keep temps down where I don't want heat, lol. Noticed I have an exhaust leak, and I believe it's coming from Turbo to Manifold Gasket. Some bolts backed out of the DP to Turbo, so I'm guessing the same thing happened. I'll check soon before driving again- definitely feels down on power.

Added some offset rack spacers, Z32 inners and S14 outers but holy shit the steering felt like junk, so ordered some normal GKTech Spacers, and those should feel better. I tossed back on the stock Inners/Outers and it feels better. Having these makes alignments a breeze.

Love the R32. You going to 100 DoD?

Maybe! Some of the tracks seem fun, but I went to there last year to coach a driver, and it was hell waiting in line.

[blksylv]

Word, I should be up there doing media hopefully lol.

[Dolph_KYAS13]

That wing is killer

[snorkelcoupe]

The ATL guys are rad, great style and driving ability. I’m pretty sure that’s the Veilside wing that went with the FD3S Fortune widebody. Glad to see you started a build thread for the R32! I’m looking forward to more updates

[240sx_sr20det]

Thanks guys! Yeah, it’s a Fortune Veilside wing for an FD, but fits nicely!

Since the stock turbo is a ticking time bomb and my T3 gasket just recently ended it’s life, I picked up a real HKS 2530 Kai off eBay.

[240sx_sr20det]

GTR injectors, Resistor Pack, and Walbro ordered.

Wanted to keep it simple and basic.

Not sure what to use to tune yet.. hard to find Power FC’s.

[240sx_sr20det]

Leaning towards NisTune.

Also found some Spitfires on EBay for $185!

[240sx_sr20det]

I've been so busy. Ran a local drift event and it was super rad! Great time and great exciting driving.

Been watching Initial D again with the wifey, so it inspired me to paint the wing. That's all though!

[240sx_sr20det]

Not much has been going on lately. A few changes.

Couldn't decide on wings, but ultimately went with the Veilside. Been watching Initial D again, so decided to paint the wing blade.

Ordered the wrong KR20's. 245/40's vs 235/45's. I'll see if I can massage the fenders a little to get them to fit. They aren't rolled yet, and I do have some rubbing issues.

http://i1123.photobucket.com/albums/l553/byebye_sti117/IMG_1353.jpg (http://s1123.photobucket.com/user/byebye_sti117/media/IMG_1353.jpg.html)

Being for an FD, I was shocked that the fitment was a good as it was.

Also got some new canards, and tried color matching them to give balance F/R.

My extinguisher came loose and went off in my car during one of my runs, at the last event, so I securely mounted it, and cleaned the entire car. That sucked, but its way cleaner now. Still waiting on my passenger seat bracket to come so I can throw in another bucket.

[240sx_sr20det]

HKS filter was dirty, so ordered up a replacement on Ebay. Cool thing is they come in tons of different colors. I opted for a Red, 3-layer this time around.

I saw a killer how-to on YouTube about how to detail your engine bay, and I really need to get around to doing it.

While changing the filter, I noticed a vacuum line coming from the manifold was just hanging out, torn. I was wondering why the car was so sluggish lately. Time to go over all the vacuum lines! #Fun

Scheduled a tune for January. Since I have a gnarly manifold to turbo exhaust leak (gasket is donezo), I'll be pulling the factory turbo and installing the HKS 2530 Kai. Going to run GTR injectors (and the resistor pack) as well as a Walbro! This will all be tuned with Nistune. I'm shooting for 275-300whp, and a nice midrange. If I have time before hand, I'm going to try and do some drop in PonCams as well.

R32 headlights suck, and it turns out, I have an early model and late model R32 headlights. One of each...awesome. I used to do this with 3000GT VR4 headlights, and I figured I'd make mine look like GTR N1 headlights since they're way more badass. Pulled them off, and tossed them in the oven..

Crazy what a little soap and water will do..

Buffed, polished and protected the glass. I really want the clear lenses, so I may go with those soon. But, of course my dumbass breaks one of the inner headlight housings, so I am doing something unique with the broken side (pics soon).

LONG UPDATE:

PART 1 of 3

Been a super busy January, felt like 3 months combined into 1 month. Started out 2019 with some driving...finally. Felt good to get back behind the wheel and the 32 feels great with some added angle from the Rack Spacers. Rear Camber needs some help, so I grabbed some cheap adjustable arms that'll go in soon.

Anyways, something between my current power level and gearing just isn't working for the Meihan Track Layout we've been running. Since this won't be my end power level, I'm going to swap on the HKS 2530, GTR Pump, Boost Controller and Spit Fire Coilpacks first. Monitoring AFR's, I'll be able to get a little more out of the car before deciding if I want to go basic piggyback or something more involved like a Apexi PFC, and adding GTR Injectors/Resistor Pack.

My goal is 280whp and a great mid-range. Pon Cams may be added later on.

Early mornings at the track > everything else.

https://i.ibb.co/HB8hXtd/IMG-3920.jpg (https://ibb.co/sbYWtKH)

After a few laps, I felt like I'd never left. I was able to work on a few things I've been meaning to try and dial in better, and by the end of the day, I was so happy to feel like I progressed a bunch (in my own head). The morning session started off wet, but as soon as the sky opened up a little and sessions were drying the track, it was game on!

https://i.ibb.co/wCTSnbN/IMG-3917.jpg (https://ibb.co/0ZkC0Wj)

I wasn't sure how I'd feel about keeping the 32, but after the Rack Spacers, 2way and 245's in the rear, I absolutely love it all over again. The simplest mod changes, make the biggest difference.

PART 3

Back to back weekends. So much fun! I love this car too because I can just throw tires and gas at it and drive it. Some issues with blowout when I hot lap too much though, but I think the Spit Fires & fresh plugs will help that.

Sprayed my spare wheels, got some fresh KR20's and loaded up the car. I have the worst luck with fire extinguishers and when I was done packing the car, I closed the trunk and pshhhhhhhhhh... I walked away wondering what it was, then saw the smoke coming from the trunk lid. EVERYTHING I PACKED WAS COVERED. It sucked. :picardfp:

Arrived early and loaded in!

https://i.ibb.co/S3VZgFM/IMG-4282.jpg (https://ibb.co/gRtc8kf)

This event was our first Novice Clinic & a lot of fun, tons of beginner progression and of course some aggressive driving was had. :naughty: I learned a lot this event. I need more power/grip (see first post). I just couldn't quite keep up with a JZ/4.6 combo coming onto the front straight. As soon as we hit 3rd he'd gap me and I'd have to shallow out my entry to dive in. So, a little power first, then more grip (265/35/18) and I always have a 4.6 gears for backup. We'll see, but I'm excited to test all these stages out in the next coming months.

It was tough chasing this US Drift S14 (reasons above), but it definitely opened my eyes to a few things. I can't wait to see how the car feels after next months event!

Regarding tires;

FRONT: Kenda KR20 235/40/17 2.4bar

REAR: Kenda KR20 245/40/17 2.4-2.1bar depending on solo laps or chasing

These last so damn long, so it's hard NOT to use them. I run them exclusively when I'm in Japan, and they never fail. Super consistent, unbelievable wear and life, and just overall very predictable. I know I can trust the car 100% with these tires under it meaning it's going to do exactly as I want it to.

When I make do the swap to the HKS 2530, I'll go to a 265/35/18 in the rear. No need for KR20A's yet.

I love talking about tires, and pressures, and setups, so would love to hear peoples feedbacks etc.

Thanks JIMB0!

I really am enjoying it now. It’s at the point where I can just keep up with maintainable, put gas in and new tires on, and go drive! It’s a good feeling.

Your new S13 build looks super fun!

S13 is fun to tinker with now that the R32 is just maintenance. Keeps my hands busy LOL

[240sx_sr20det]

Been trying to do as much driving as I can lately!

Currently doing 4.6 gearing because I'm tired of getting gapped on the straight by spooly boi SR's with 4.3/4.6. The RB has no bottom end, LOL.

Other than that, the car remains the same. Just tires, fluids and nut & bolt checks!

Adding a few things to the car.

GKtech high-clearance sway bar
URAS Off-set Tie Rod Ends/Tie Rod supports
PS Cooler/Oil Cooler

Everything has been closed, so not much seat-time besides simulator.

PS 4.6 feels amazing.

Ended up losing 3rd gear with a misshift/short-shift to 3rd, oops! Swapped it out with a new one - luckily found it local and traded a SR trans.

Developed a misfire only during feints, so maybe a loose ground or clogged injector. AFR's look good, and plugs are good. Getting fuel, but maybe stopping at the injectors. Weird that it only happens when I load up the right side.

Swapped from RSR all around to KR20A 300tw and happy so far. Grip is good, definitely not as responsive as the 220 RSR's, but still have some suspension tweaks to optimize it.

Not really much to update. Will load some pics later.
