Thanks for that....

There was a car for sale which the owner mentioned it was a Vspec II, but it doesn't have the number 8 after RBFS....

so I'm assuming its just a Vpsec

I see,

Yeah that's right, if it does not have the number "8" or if there is a digit absent, meaning it is a V-Spec (non V-Spec II).

And since the build date is Feb 1993, it indicates it is a V-Spec.

V-Spec II are built from Feb 1994.

Will have to look at the Engine Block.

Usually if the Block is embossed with "05U" = Standard.

Embossed with "24U" = N1.

Also check the turbo part numbers, from memory, R32 GTR N1 Engines came with Nismo Turbos, like the R32 GTR Nismo Editions.

R32 GTR Nismo Turbo Part Number (14411-06U00).

Might have to get someone on here to decode that engine number.

Engine wise, Base Model R32 GTR vs R32 GTR V-Spec + V-Spec II, there is no difference.

V-Spec's came with Brembos and 17" BBS Wheels with 225 / 45 /17 Tires.

V-Spec II, same as above but with Tires sizing of 245 / 45 / 17.

Afternoon guys, was wanting to get the following vin checked please re; info on the specification of the car

Many thanks,

One of the Spec Codes indicate it's a M-Spec.

Is it a M-Spec or M-Spec Nur?

Car is a base M-Spec, i'm currently having it inspected at racepace VIC, as i'm in sydney

thanks a heap, I can always rely on you guys to come through with information, much appreciated

Sorry my fast isn't picking that one up... hopefully someone else can help you with it.

Thanks for trying mate, appreciate you taking the time to check

The car in question is here - http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/_/SSE-AD-3480145

not as tidy as the photos lead on from Racepace's feedback, but i hope it's got my name on it

I see.

Not bad for the price.

Low Km's, done up nicely for looks and assuming "Lightly Modified" would involve an exhaust system at least.

Higher price then the usually GTR's only cause it's a M-Spec.

Racepace will be the best to give you the answer and I am a customer of theirs too so I can assure.

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
