Alrighty...

In the red corner we have the production models of R33 GTR listed as normal, VSpec, N1, Autech 4-door, 400R and LM (the blue one). This is what is stated by Nissan (even in the HyperRev 57 mag). This is widely considered as correct.

The R32 & R34 had (among others) VSpec and VSpec 2 models. The R33 did not.

...

In the blue corner, we have these pics of a Top Secrect demo car in Japan:

and

topsecret33-2.jpg

That badge sure as hell looks like VSpec II to me? Is it real or rice?

You may begin :(

it could be a vspecII(Seen Vspec, Maybe a VspecII genuine r33 sitcker but they could of been a fake) but the sticker is from a R34, so i dont know if they couldnt find a r33 model one or they just are showing off that they have parts Stickers like that avaliable...

Looks like it has some sorta Kakimoto widebody kit on it. Can't be sure...its too dark. Damn it looks nice though? Where did you get the pic Jamezilla? Is that R logo illuminated on the bottom sideskirt or is just reflecting off something??? Anybody have any guesses......I second Merli...no such thing as an R33 V-Spec 11.....

If you're not joking:

Congratulations...

You're a victim of ricer gullibility :bahaha: :bahaha: :bahaha:

If you are:

:bahaha: :bahaha: :bahaha:

Is a TopSecret demo/customer car.

I was only unsure as to if it was real - I wouldn't expect TopSecret to put a 'pretend' sticker on a car.

They foglamp is on - so it is a late model '33. The pic came from a member of the UK GTR club's website from a visit to Japan.... I was pretty sure there were no VSpecII in the R33 - but as I said, wasn't 100% :D

I think that's a Top Secret Customer Car. That isn't one of their demo cars, at least it wasn't at their workshop in January when I visited.

YBSLO4: Dude. There is no such thing as an R33 GTR VSpec II.

Did they claim it was a VSpec II? If so, that's very dodgy.

I went to a dealer on Parramatta Rd here in Sydney a few years ago, and had the dealer adamantly claim that it was a Series 2 GTS-t. It didn't have passenger airbag, series 2 steering wheel or series 2 headlights. The plate in the engine bay said it was a 1995... Dealers will spout anything they can think of to make a sale. Quite disgraceful actually.

Man he wouldn't stop abhout how rare and good the car was, i mean year it was brand new you could tell with that amount of KM's it was obvious it had barely been driven, but he bragged endlessly about the Vspec'II'?? That gets me so cut i swear, $71,000 and they still try and firggen stooge ya...

    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
    • Yeah, Duncan is helping sell me back to Android devices. I've hated the whole Android head units due to their speed issues. Even in my old Hyundai Kona (2022 model), it behind the scenes was Android, and slow and shitty to start up. Once running wasn't bad, but still a good 15 to 30 seconds.
    • My roof rails are off atm on the E39 until the rust is fixed. I did find another little bit of surface rust under the rails when I took them off. As @soviet_merlin said I'd just leave them alone unless you're planning on ensuring they're properly sealed. I was on the fence about leaving them off as the delete is still a thing in BMW E39's but I feel like the car is missing something (er, it is, der) with them off and I'm looking forward to putting them back on.
