I have no idea what i'm doing r32 gtst build from the midwest - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

drftx · 11-03-2015, 08:10 AM

Whats going on folks! Some of you might remember me and my s13 or brz idk. But im back with a new car and a new build.

A little bit of background of my previous cars.

After this onvia I picked up this s13 with a silvia front. My first turbo car and first sr20

Then I blew the motor and started to change everything

Then this happened after the Equips

Parted out my s13 and got a brz. The brz was a fun and awesome car, I decided to part out the brz and keep it stock and got the 32.

Then got advan model 5's

Went to advan TC3

Then meet up some internet friends and did internet things at final bout 2

Chicago, Texas, Norcal and Socal all at my place was too crazy.

Brought them for the BEST pizza in Chicago

HI !!!! ^_^

New pick up would be this 90 r32 gtst with a rb20det

I was going to use this in the BRZ then I decided to keep it for the 32

Got a buddy club s13 rail and a vertex shift knob

I thought the seat rail would work but some hammering needed the rear hole did not line up so a couple mutinies with a hammer made it work!

IN you go!

To delete the rear HICAS I decided to run a s14 sub frame. I came across a s13 welded diff so im gonna run that with a s14 diff cover. With this setup I can run s14 axles just in case if I snap axles I can get them instead of trying to find r32 axles.

Got the s13 printed on a canvas

There is a lot of little things that I have to fix on this car. For example the intercooler piping the person before me used exhaust pipes -.- and check out these not even bolted on. So a quick run to the hard wear store to pick up some fancy bolts.

Gonna clean up the bay during winter downtime

Then picked this bad boy up

Thank youuuuuuuuu Streettterrr

Ah it's good to see that Streeter has a way to ship larger kits (just as long as you don't mind glassing the half's together).

wolf904 · 11-04-2015, 10:24 PM

Its like, I don't want to say you can't top this, because after all it was your build...

but holy fuck I don't know how you can top that lol. That thing was a camber switch-aroo to perfection. and thats being nit picky. That car was way rad. but, if you were able to put that together, I know the skyline is going to be just as cool! man a thread thats currently ongoing that im stoked for! subbed!

Rusker · 11-04-2015, 11:54 PM

This will be an interesting build.

Cool man, I think thats the right choice. Street cars are the coolest on stock metal. and even if its not some dished 3 piece shit I know with you're taste you'll make it cool. Can't wait to see what you do with it

This was my fav stage, definitely looking towards what's next.

Quick test fit

Just for fun lol

Dolph_KYAS13 · 11-07-2015, 12:42 PM

getting aero from japan is so inconvenient. they had to cut all my tommykaira stuff too

Ramonesfreak2010 · 11-09-2015, 01:05 PM

wtf they cut up aero just to ship it?!

BOOGS! · 11-09-2015, 01:28 PM

Probably cuts shipping down by half! pun not intended.

When I ordered mine I was told that the side skirts were too long to ship by sea but would fit on an airplane (

go figure). The problem was that they took up so much volume if they were in one piece and would make the shipping costs astronomical.

So by doing a bit of fiberglass work one is able to save a small fortune on shipping.

drftx · 11-09-2015, 05:28 PM

Just to clarify if the aero was not cut in half shipping alone was just 1300. Shipping it cut in half was 400 just for shipping so that's more than half off. I know how to fiberglass so I opted to glass it my self.

danshaz · 11-10-2015, 09:36 PM

i saw this parked at sprint the other week

Even if you didn't know how to fiberglass the halves together yourself, you could easily have a competent person/bodyshop do it and get it fitting right with the money you saved on the shipping. The shipping costs increase exponentially with size, it's insane.

I also had a bumper shipped in halves from Jesse and I'm not too worried about getting it glasses together myself, but feel free to post some pics on your process

anyway, build looks promising - subscribed.

drftx · 11-11-2015, 09:04 AM

PS duce is so rad! I wanted to run BN but it looks like almost every r32 out there runs BN.

Updates will be slow as I just bought tickets to Japan for exciting car showdown!!!! EXCITE!

dizzariot · 11-11-2015, 06:28 PM

So you're still on there. That's cool. Here's what a little digging got me. I'm sure I'll find the rest of it during work tonight.

turboshoebox · 11-11-2015, 09:07 PM

Damn so cuting body kids in half takes off 1/3 off of shipping lol

were these used or new parts? Even with the shipping savings i couldn't do this to my kits.

When i ordered parts I shared a contanier with someone so i imagine this is why I didn't have to go thru this

Brand spanking new from PS DUCE I mean yeah I would the old fashioned way ship it through ha container bla bla bla.... But I know how to fiberglass I'm just lazy haha. The whole glassing process took me a good day. Its not even that bad I paid $850 for the kit all said and done and took 3 days.

turboshoebox · 11-11-2015, 10:11 PM

850 for front and sides only? Sounds about right for real deal jdm kits.

Luckily being the ship comes into california ports and I'm in california I don't have to deal with any other additional shipping.

turboshoebox · 11-11-2015, 11:06 PM

850 for a whole kit? how so cheap?

Most jdm kits are 500 each for front, sides, rear, front fenders rear fenders etc.
