Nico Ble99 BNR R32 GTR
STRONG FOUNDATION
When you hear the words GTR what's the first thoughts that come in mind? Fast and the furious, Godzilla, R34, R35? If any of these came to mind, you wouldn't be to far off of the general mass thought process. Those who know their history will tell you different, The GT-R dominance statue comes from the Original Gangsta R32. Fast forwarding to today PGTR has the pleasure to feature this 1994 BNR32 GT-R in GTP community rides!
Nissan Group A Track Monster Calsonic R32
When I first got word PGTR was featuring a R32 I was quite intrigued, I knew this was the car that gave birth to Godzilla. When I finally got to meet the owner of this beautiful R32, one of his reasons he loved the car was because of its racing pedigree. Can you blame him? If you want to own the streets and track the best way to start is driving a machine bred to race. This is why Nico Ble99 chose the R32, right off of the show room the R32 is extremely capable and for it's age is filled with technical goodies. It's 4 wheel drive system for it's time and even today is just as capable as any modern system. The R32 purpose is to go fast and dominate. In stock form The R32 is good, but according to Nico Ble99 It wasn't good enough.
Straight boss during city driving in the GT-R32
Looking at the R32 exterior, it a beautiful but subtle machine. The grey metallic paint with the wide fenders give it a mean look. The car stance is equipped with Tein mono sport damper coilovers which drops the car at perfect height. The owner changed the stock wheels out for Volk racing TE37 SL fitted with Toyo Proxes 1. The braking system is upgraded with black Willwood racing brakes and rotors giving the R32 a better tuner look overall. The interior is not lacking in anyway also. The stock seats where swapped out for Recaro pole postion buckets seats which are lighter and gives the interior an awesome look, The steering wheel which also was canned and replaced by a sexy Royal jack sued 3 spoke racing wheel. The driver also has 3 auto meter gauges to help monitor the engine vitals. Speaking of engine if you thought this R32 was all show and no go you have it all wrong.
One Of the meanest wheel brake combinations on the streets
Always good to knows whats going on under the hood from the cabin
According to the owner the stock power out put was not enough for his liking, he knew if his R32 was going to be a factor it had to pack a mean punch. How does 420 hp sound when it punches your ass in your driver seat. This RB26 can out put 600hp at full boost, but because the bottom end is stock the R32 runs at safe 420 horepower. With a bigger single turbo set up and a super power flow intake from HKS, it helps the RB motor breath more, and when it need to exhale it comes out of the massive blitz exhaust system which includes a down pipe and wastegate. The HKS stage two clutch keeps the power transfer to the wheels in check making sure the power is usable.
Driving impressions- Driving the R32 around town is pure bliss! The seating position is perfect the steering fits in your hand and the clutch while is a little heavy still is bearable during city driving. Nico GT-R will test your faith in the law. Those 400+ ponies come instantly through just a couple of seconds on the accelerator. I mean it's very addictive to just go fast in this car, the pulling sensation combined with the beautiful exhaust note, it's no wonder you get so many looks around town. This machine doesn't just go straight either. When you are about to hit a comer The GT-R really shines easily gripping around the apex thanks to the mono flex sports coilovers. The ride is a little firm but I like it, and if you are a car lover who likes to get the performance out your car you would also! It reminds you that your in a tuned car.

Driving Aids
ABS Off*
TCS Off
ASM Off
G27 manual 6 speed with clutch
*Even though the GT-R32 has ABS in real life GT6 ABS acts more as a advance braking stabilizer IMO which in PGTR would be allowed in Newer cars with different driving modes such as Lexus IS-F BMW M4 etc. Because the GT-R doesn't have stability control ABS has to be set off. It brings out the character of the cars when ABS is off please try it 👍
