  • Colby's R32 GT-R Build. Slow but sure

    Hey guys,

    Thought it was time to post up a build thread of my car. I purchased the car through Adam @ Feast and had no problems what so ever! My car:

    1994 R32 Gtr





    It came pretty basic. Had Hks mushroom type air filters, a front strut bar, lotus steering wheel, fresh rebuilt engine, aftermarket clutch. During transport from Japan my GTR badge was stolen, shift boot. It was graded a 4 at auction very clean even has original service records!

    First things first I ordered a new set of shoes and an exhaust using both Daryl (Rightdrive) and Adam(Feast)

    Tomei Exhaust with Greddy downpipe and apexi test pipe

    Volk TE37SL 17x9.5 +12


    When those got installed I did some typical maintance, spark plugs, oil change. Sourced a oil filter relocation, plus cooler from Adam and installed that. Threw some HIDS in as well.

    Soon Upgraded to some Brembo brakes all around, added mines ecu, Apexi air intake, nismo thermostat, GTR badge, LEDS in the gauges, Nardi steering wheel, turbo timer, short shifter.

    In 2012 we entered a local car show that was previously called Euroquake, now called Auotunion. We actually placed second in Asain import category!


    What she looks like now.



    Now back to 2013 we entered Autounion again where we won first, they had a dyno which we got 326hp and 273ft/lb of torque.


    So now moving on to this winter we have big plans, we hope to join the 600hp club. Parts have been slowly trickling in:


    YellowJacket Coils
    Rips catch can
    Dmax LEd taillights
    Black valve covers
    Arp head studs
    Tomei Head gasket
    Ab flug front diffuser
    Tomei cam gears
    Tomei timing belt
    Tomei poncam type b
    Tomei fuel pump
    Tomei fpr
    Tomei fuel rail
    Rear wiper plug
    Tomei exhaust manifolds
    Dworks 800cc injectors
    Volk Te37Sl Center Cap Adapters
    Greddy intake(polished)
    Rsr turbo elbows
    Garrett 2860-5 turbos


    Getting Rashad to do me up a set of din gauges with AEM digital gauges, like this

                    I had the opportunity to use the CCMR mobile dyno last summer but I was afraid of my car jumping the dyno, or my engine popping. Did you have to pull the AWD fuse? Was CCMR comfortable with the GTR?

                      Sorry for the really late response. Yep just pulled the fuse went for a little test drive. The guy was great, no issue at all.

                        What are you using to hold the aem garages in there now(in the pics). It looks good to me and I would like to
                        do the same with my aem gauges.

                          They are bolted i believe, i didnt actually do it. Check out disciplined tuning, they were the ones who did it.
