Yellow Zilla R32
Today we are in for an absolute treat. It is with great honour that I get to showcase one of the cleanest and most well-done R32 Skylines I have ever seen in my life. Make sure you get your popcorn ready because this car is too clean to have a short mod list. Everyone meet Yellow Zilla: The RB20DET Nissan Skyline R32 GTS-T!
The Exterior: A True Work of Art
The owner of this build started with what seems to be a complete overhaul of the exterior. With regards to paint, he opted for a stunning, three-layer Indy Yellow Pearl paint job from the S2000 palette. The floorboard has also been sandblasted and varnished with yellow polyurethane. This is in attempt of protecting against corrosion, ensuring the longevity of the car.
The engine bay was also welded, enlarged wheel arches were added, and the car was modified for maximum lowering. The Pandem-style widebody kit and the GTR front end were added, and the look was finished off with a set of Work Rezax 19’ alloy wheels.
Engine: The Performance and the Power
Under the hood, this Skyline R32 GTS-T received some massive upgrades to its RB20DET motor. It was tuned by MKlasa and fitted with new OEM Nissan Timing. The other power mods are as follows:
Tomei Poncam Camshafts
A BorgWarner Turbo from a Mercedes AMG A45
A Wastegate Turbosmart actuator
A Trigger kit from ThunderRace
A AEM fuel system (steel braided nylon hoses, 340lph fuel pump, pressure regulator)
A set of Bosch 630 injectors
A set of coils from VAG engine
A Turboworks intake manifold

A Custom exhaust manifold
A Downpipe wrapped with stainless steel thermal shield

Now don’t get me wrong, the engine mod list goes much longer than this. However, I am forced to summarize as the list will go on for quite some time. Make sure to click any of the images on this page to learn more. Now let’s get into platform and handling.
Drivetrain & Suspension: Handling and Control
To maximize handling and control, the owner of this building almost fully upgraded the drivetrain and suspension. Everything from an Ogura racing clutch to Hell lines and HPS pads. A summarized drivetrain mod list is as follows:
