Hi guys.

I've owned my R32 for over a year now so it's about time I posted on here. It's going to be a farily long term project I think but I've had great fun with the car so far.

My aim is to get it looking standard bar the exhaust and get it to about 500bhp and see how long it lasts before rebuilding the engine.

I'll post pictures when I've got to 15 posts.

Welcome mate where abouts are you ?

 

[Andy616]

Thanks. Just updated my profile. I'm based in Somerset, nice part of the UK but I don't know of any tuners/specialists that are particularly close.

Sounds like a plan mate good luck.

 

[Andy616]

There's not too many original parts I'm after but they are difficult to find. Original wheels and an orignal radio are the first priorities.

Bob - fourtoes/Zealou5 - is about an hour and and a half from you, maybe a bit less. He's a trader on here and has probably the best turned out R32 that you will have seen. Look him up and see if he can help.

bob/zealou5 is trowbridge area i believe

Thanks for the recommendation, I've seen their work before but I didn't realise they were quite close. The 240z they posted pictures of is pure porn!

I'm quite handy with a spanner so I can do most of the mechanical stuff myself. The bits I gonna struggle with is having a replacement ECU fitted and mapped and I've got a bit of bodywork that needs sorting.

Time for some pictures:

If anyone went to last year's Yeovilton Airday they may have spotted it.
