My new project.. R32

**MaxGTST** · 04-05-2010, 01:44 PM

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

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 !

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.

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 !
