Regular Maintence for a GTR

[MatthewL14]

IM new here and me and my dad are looking to get a GTR
I have some questions that i need some help with, other than a regular oil change what kinda regular maintence is needed on these beasts. I was also curious if they have a weak spot (ex. honda> timing belt). Thanks in Advance for your response.

A healthy diet of modification. They like to have at least $2000 spent on them per month in mods.

Seriously. It's cylinder #6 and that's only when you get stupid with the boost and low octane gas.

Always fill up with 94 Octane......ALWAYS

The stock clutch. Replace it with a damper style twin plate unit and refrain from launching at 7000 RPM, no matter how cool it is. :wink:

Thanks, would a twin plate be necessary ruuning around 350-400 hp(thats how much power im looking to achieve somehow, not sure with what parts yet though).

I hope you are not trying to put anything less than a twin plate in an R32 GTR.

If Sean says you need a twin plate, you should get one. Mine was probably on its way out, but I made short work of it (no 7000rpm launches, but there were a couple that were up there ops: ). Now it's time for a twin plate.

Stock GT-R - 7 hard launches it will be done. From brand new, to the car will not move any more.

Drive it like a woman, and it will last a long time.
