G'day guys,
Well the time came for me to step out of the Holdens and buy something with a little more of a competitive edge.
I have always loved the R32's and always said I would love to own one. Now I do.

The Rundown:

Motor

Port/Polish Headwork
New RB26 crankshaft
N1 24U block
CP Pistons
Eagle con rods
Brand spankin GT2560-5's

Twin turbo pipe mod.
Braided oil/water lines to turbos.
Tomei Poncams 9.15 lift
Denso 720 injectors
HKS cam gears
ARP head studs
OEM gasket kit
Cometic head gasket
ACL bearings
Splitfire coil packs
Custom oil catch can
Factory FMIC
Nisan oil cooler
Nissan oil filter
N1 water pump
A/M oil pump.
Coated pistons
Denso injectors
All new hoses
All new seals
All new belts
New crank bush
Reco steering system
New turbo drain back hoses
Fabricated catch can system. (not up to my standards of Fabrication, will redo or buy a Jap equivalent.)
Gearbox has the usual syncro crunch and clutch fries in second so first on my list is a clutch.

Intake/Exhaust

K & N pod filters
HKS Suction kit
HKS Hard pipe kit
Ported stock exhaust manifolds
GReddy Dump/Front pipe extension kit.

Short 3rd gear pull with slippy clutch. :(

There's a lot on the table for this thing, Will pull the whole car down, replace all bits that are replaceable e.g bushes etc. I want to know the car inside and out, that way I will be able to understand the way the car drives around the track and how different thing affect the overall outcome. I have a lot to learn about track setup and can't wait to fill my brain :)

Thanks,
Ben

Nice one Benny boy, tough car these things. It would probably be a bit of a handful for a daily though wouldn't it? Is it comfy and well insulated?

Thanks mate, Not a daily though, I have my Mazda Bravo. It is comfy enough with the buckets but it has huge spring pressures so its very solid. Insulated, well doesn't really matter, when it comes on boost you can't hear the radio anyways so road noise etc. doesn't phase me lol

Nice pick up mate, looks immaculate. HammaTime: Not a bad daily at all, very well put together car, plenty of sound deadening from factory, my house mate daily's his GT-R32 happily, but has the dampers set to soft.

Thanks guys, Wraith, should be pushing out a heap more once I change the turbos and get it re tuned at Racepace. Hoping for 350+ as I have the internals for it.

Any idea what sort of turbo's you are playing with?, Also Injectors?
