R32 Gtr Nismo


Recommended Posts

GTR Nismo Editions were produced from February 22, 1990, has a total production of 560 units.

Its purpose is to homologate a number of aerodynamic changes used in Group A racing.

Nismo R32 GTR's were for cooling / aerodynamic / cosmetic purposes.

- 2 air ducts in the front bumper to improve airflow to the intercooler.

- Bonnet lip spoiler to direct more air into the radiator / engine bay

- Boot lip spoiler to provide more downforce.

Are rear wheels arch Spat was added to the side skirts.

The 'Nismo' GT-R was only available in Gunmetal Grey.

Performance / Mechanical = same as the base model but came from factory with the Nismo Body kit and making it a Genuine one, there would have been a Nismo Sticker on the boot lid and I believe some sort of plaque / build plate stating it is a Genuine Nismo R32 GTR.

Yeah,

R32 GTR N1, was the only one that came with the N1 engine and N1 turbo's.

The N1 turbo's would have ran a high boost pressure of 1 Bar (from memory) with steel internals, which made the turbo chargers stronger then the ceramic internals on the other R32 GTR models.

Produced on July 19, 1991, was designed for home-market N1 racing with a total of 228 units were made.

This R32 GTR separates itself from the rest of the R32 GTR's as the engine, which was upgraded to the R32-N1 specification.

The removal of the ABS, air conditioning, sound system, rear wiper, boot carpet, and the use of light-weight headlights + no other colours were available except a thin layer of Crystal White paint.

All in order to save / reduce the weight of the car.

did the base model GTRs come with an intercooler aswell?

A factory front mount intercooler yes.

Suspension, computer, exhaust... Would have been all stock from factory... Until you installed aftermarket items... If that is what you are asking...

what about the power figures, torque and 1/4 mile, 0-100 and all that?

all the figures ive found have told me that the 32 GTR is 0.2secs quicker over the 1/4 than the 33 and the same 0-100 and 1/4mile as the 34. anyone got genuine firgures for all the GTR models?

did all the 32 nismos come with the 260klm speedo? if so im after one because im pretty sure mine was swapped over for a normal GTR speedo with less klms.

Due to the "Gentlemens" Agreement in Japan, no car could exceed over 206 kW's.

So couldn't give you an exact power figure unless you dyno it.

From memory R32 GTR was being the lightest of all 3 GTR's.

0-100 km/h times I have seen between 4.7 sec to 5.3 sec / 1/4 mile times range from 12.8 sec to 13.7 sec, varying from different 'published' magazines, as I will not take website info as solid evidence, more so a guide...

All Skylines would have came with a 180km/h speedo until you find the R34 GTR V-Spec II Nur's and M-Spec Nur's that will have factory 300km/h speedo.

260km/h and 320km/h Speedo's would be aftermarket Nismo ones.

i own a 32 gtr Nismo edition, the build number should be XXX100 thats how you tell if they are one or not.

they Come factory with N1 steel Wheel Turbos, No abs, No rear wiper and are rated 60kg lighter than the factory gtr. They also dont have lil things like the radio buttons on dash.

It was an option for the buyer to have Aircon and a radio, my one has both.

and also the full nismo kit as stated above. there is a couple of other lil things but i cant remember them atm.

are you 100% the N1s are standard? my nismo has the N1s and they look like they have been factory fitted because there are no tool marks or anything as such around the turbo area. im still sitting on the fence about it though.

does yours have a nismo speedo???

I am pretty sure Deano 1 is correct.

If you have doubts, you can get your VIN Number and do a FAST Check.

^^ Post your VIN Number in the thread above and someone can decode it for you to tell you exactly what your R32 GTR came with.

Hey mate, I'm gonna assume you've just bought the car in your avatar - congrats!

I had a look at it... was very tempted, nice car. I can tell you that from what I looked at, and after doing a Nissan FAST check, it's a genuine Nismo. Of course, it's now white so it doesn't have all the hallmarks of the Nismo version.

    • Lighting in the shed looks real good! Not lying, have shed envy lol. Maybe one day I can fk off from Metro Sydney.
    • I would be cautious with those 2000/2200 CNG injectors, swap them out for a set of 1550 aka 1650 Bosch stainless ones before you take out a motor.
    • I tested them all a couple times, haven't tested it warm or wet though. The only seemingly really weird thing was the cylinders plug closest to the dash was pitch black nearly.  Doesn't smoke out of the exhaust or anything.    Also sorry everyone for the very late response. Got busy with work and all and didn't get around to fooling with the car for awhile.  But an update! I figured out the cause of the lean condition, my intercooler had at some point exploded or something. It's clearly separated in a spot with black oily buildup around the leak, and multiple leaks in various vacuum lines. I've replaced it and the vacuum lines, and gotten new clamps and there are 0 leaks now after doing a couple smoke tests.   The car now runs significantly better and the exhaust doesn't overheat anymore. I still have the main problem though where the engine feels like I'm lugging it around sub 3500rpm in any gear besides 1st, 2nd It's less noticeable but 3rd anything under 3.5k and I need to downshift or the engine is clearly struggling when trying to accelerate at all, 4th is the exact same, sub 3.5k engine won't accelerate and its hard to bring it back up to speed, 5th gear doesn't feel like the car is going to straight up fall apart now but it still can't pull 5th. It slowly loses speed and rpm and ANY gas I give I can feel the shakes from the engine and it slowly dying. If I ever so lightly give it gas it will slowly and nicely decel till around 2k rpm instead of lugging. But it cannot accelerate at all or maintain speed.   If I go from first gear at 5 or 6krpm and then shift to second it also feels like it's struggling to make power till above 3krpm if trying to accelerate but I can cruise around parking lots at around 1-2krpm just fine in 2nd. It's just when accelerating hard it and changing gear you really notice it die down.  But even if you shift at way lower rpms it does the same thing till somewhere above 3k.  As far as I'm aware it's got r32 gtr transmission gear ratios with gts4 diffs. The tire size is 205/55r16 91h Above 3500rpm the car pulls and runs and drives quite normally and the power from engine sounds and feels very smooth.  It's perfectly driveable at above 3.5krpm but I drive on the highway alot for work and it gets really bad gas mileage in 4th at 4.4krpm. Not that I'm looking for great gas mileage with such a car, just I'm sure being at around 3krpm would be significantly better for it.    Have appreciated all your guys help. I do understand the engine may just be f**ked from running with a boost leak though.    One final thing I'd like to add is I'm only shifting so high in the rpm range is because if I don't I will feel the engine lugging bad with 0 power in lower rpms, pretty much anytime off boost trying to accelerate it feels really bad.  Also when I say 3500 rpm I don't mean exactly. Just around there. 
    • So what did you end up doing ?  and is it still alive today ?    
    • I run 2 x 525 pumps on factory 8mm fuel lines     ... zero issues, staged of course    Your setup should work fine, all you need to do is find the restriction. A good aftermarket fuel regulator is always a good idea too. If it's not your regulator i'd be suspicious of your fuel tank breather and your tank pressurising. Next would be something with the fuel hat. Then blow out the fuel lines.
