new guy here......purple gt-r

[rixskyline]

Im new here but I will be around more often....I live in Jacksonville Florida and I bought this car a month ago from a company in Japan who took it apart and shipped it for me. I may have a few skylines for sale in under a month.

This GTR is stock, was gunmetal grey but now deep purple, its all stock with a FMIC thats 2" thicker.......

[Gold Digger]

Hey, welcome to NICO. That is a gorgeous 32-R you have there. Very nice.

Just want to run a couple things by you right quick.

I may have a few skylines for sale in under a month.

Unless the Skylines you are going to be selling are former MotorEx cars, please do not list them here, unless you specifically state they are not legal nor can they be made legal. We here at NICO try to make sure all the people here are informed about the problems of trying to legalize a Skyline, as it's not easy, and we are also commited to prevent any kind of fraud.

Advertising without proper consent from the CEO or the other top Admins of NICO is prohibited on the forums. If your business is ligitimate, then by all means contact Greg Childs (AZHitman) at [email protected] and see where it goes from there.

And lastly, be aware that disassembled cars that are brought into the states and re-assembled then sold as "kit-cars" is illegal. This has been an long standing discussion here in the Skyline forum, and there have been a couple of past members that are now being sued because of this, along with many other reasons. Just be aware what you are doing.

I know I may sound harsh, but we try to stick to the rules as best we can here at NICO.

We are welcoming to any advice you might have to help out fellow members with tuning, repair or basic maintenence and are glad to have you as a new member.

Be sure to check out the other forums as well on NICO as there is a lot of great information floating around.

Again, welcome, and enjoy your time here.

sexy car man, I love the purple, i know i shouldnt ask but, is it for sale?

[rixskyline]

yeah its for sale at the right price...but most anything is.....don't get me wrong I love my car and it has some bitchin cold A/C but Id let it go for a pretty penny.....The car is bone stock with a 4" thick FMIC and a Mines VX rom tuned ECU and the boost at 1 bar but more to come soon......Its registered and I drive it everyday and I love it.

[ripnbst]

Your car is sick

[Count Zero]

That purple looks sweet.

Hrm....may have to rethink my color choice when I repaint my R32.....

[Filma]

i would have to say i love the car man .... it just makes me want one so bad ...i cant wait ....

[Black on Gold]

You did do a correct paint job right? I'd hate to see "Gunmetal" doorjams and what not

[rixskyline]

its purple inside and out, and yeah the paint was done nicely all around and it cleans up soooo nicely, I get alot of attention in this thing...

[DechYe]

How'd you go about getting it registered?

[ripnbst]

Well how did you get it registered in the states? I heard in NC you can register them pretty easily. Its getting them here through customs thats the hard part.

[drifter92sx]

dude sick r32 i like the color but it have to ask this q how does yur motor run wit that ecu tuned by mine's cuz they run 100 in the VX-ROM tune and i knw we dnt have very many gas station wit that high of octane but i knw we have more air than they do cuz of their elavation is higher wat octane gas do you run

[tyndago]

Whats your octane number on the fuel you use ?

The problem with the Mines Rom is they turn off knock control. The knock control off, plus at least here in Cali 91 octane causes knock at 0.8 bar. Run 1.0 bar and its knocking all the time under load.

What happens if you knock too much, is you snap the ceramic exhaust wheel off. If this is a car you want to sell, you might want to knock the boost back a little. Put the restrictor back in the solenoid line.

Very nice, love the color, cant wait to get mine painted

[drifter92sx]

ok kool cuz i just got a rb20det swap and it didnt come wit a ecu or a starter i ordered a mine's vx-rom ecu from japan from ebay for like a bill and its tuned for 0.9 bar and 100 octane i just wanted to knw if i would have any problems wit the knockin but cant i just get another chip and install it in then place of the mine's chip?

Mines Epoxies over their chips. Makes them really difficult to get out. If you have good soldering skills and time with a dremel you can get it out.

Otherwise, not at all a good idea. Unless you run 100 octane fuel all the time. You need about 95 PON fuel to equal Japanese 100 octane.

[Tori-N-Joe]

Very nice!

[drifter92sx]

ok that good to knw ill take a look at it when i get it and if i can get it out then ill try cuz isn't there a port in the corner were the chip is plugged in right

[SullivanRacing06]
