My new project.. R32

[MaxGTST]

So you probably know me for my old R33 that I just sold


Well, I had the idea to buy myself a nice LHD 240sx, put some sick rims, a JZ motor and drift it, but I came across a nice R32 that remembered me of my first skyline ( now sold to m_melen )


So, like I said, came across this R32 local to me, pretty much stock except for

-tein coilovers
-aftermarket exhaust
-GTR driver seat
-Volk TE37 in some weak size, 18x8.5 and 18x9.5 with a weak offset
-4 other missmatched rims
-GTR hood

Bought this for cheap .. like dirt cheap, so couldn't let this pass.

Plan for this car is

2010:
-Fit my old wheels, Te37 18x9.5 +22 & +12
-Vertex side and rear
-Bucket Seats
-FMIC
-Nardi Steering wheel

there will be some other small things but that's pretty much it for this summer.. winter 2010-2011, if everything goes well I plan on doing an engine swap, but since I was supposed to do a JZ swap in a 240sx, I'll do it in this R32 instead. I'm gathering some info with Driftworks and it's not that complicated.

Anyway...
here's when I bought it
4x4 mode


1hour later .. coilovers maxed out


Weak size wheels ..

plz god change the front bumper, it looks like a maxima
otherwise car is gorgeous, te37s aren't half bad

[MaxGTST]

for the front bumper, I don't want to buy a fiberglass one since I'm kind of low, I'll keep this one for now, remove the ugly ass lamp, and make a custom lip for it. Will look good !

whats the milage like on her? and how much did u pay if u dont mind me asking

Really cool car, have you determined any kind of pricing for a jz swap? Id really love to do it but the more i look into the financial side it sounds like it gets damn expensive quick.

[MaxGTST]

it's pretty much the same as swapping a JZ into a 240sx. I'll need a S14 crossmember with custom engine/tranny mounts, custom driveshaft, do all the wiring... It'll end up costing way more then a RB25 swap but I don't care, I always wanted a JZ... I find it more reliable, sounds better and it's cheaper to make great power then any RB IMO !

holy crap nostalgia. that looks almost exactly like the one you sold me, and seeing it sitting in your driveway is kinda weird...

[Nissan_Sean]

which jz are you using? I've always like 1jz's in silvias. would be pretty cool in a gts as well.

Nice car

I like.

But that R33 was an amazing car.

I'll probably end up using a 1JZ, cheaper and will make the power I want.

R33 was hawtt but not the "style" I wanted.

Type M foglights are P.I.M.P

Leave them..

Just cut your plate holder out and throw a big FMIC under there.

how much for the old Volks, my buddy would like em for a Subaru ...that offset is better suited for them anyway

[MaxGTST]

Wheels are sold, fender roller is on his way home.. still thinking if I powdercoat my other TE37 takata green or sell them... Fitted my Nardi Steering wheel. Next step is bucket seat, "custom" center console, shiftknob, hydro e-brake.. and much more .. still waiting on 1 thing tho' before alot of updates
