seller has no idea

it's not 'M Tune' it's M-spec, and that isn't one: an M-spec is basically a V spec 2 with a factory Robson leather interior and suspension more suited to the European market.

No there is no such thing as a Nismo M-tune.. there is however a Nismo M-spec.. maybe he made the bodykit himself and is dubbed the M-tune.. which would explain the 'rare' part.. or maybe its rare cause there are 0 recorded Nismo M-tune GTRs'...

In the car sales add its a only a V-Spec,

V-Spec's had smaller Nissan badges and the the "V-Spec" is a sticker only. Which is what this car is.

IF it was a M-Spec Nur, it will be based apond the V-Spec II Nur models.

Larger Nissan badge and a "V-Spec II Nur" as a badge. Usually its a Millenium Jade Colour with N1 running gear.

The bonnet should have a NACA Duct as with all V-Spec II came with. V-Spec's did not come with a NACA Duct.

M-Spec Nur's came with black leather interiour and a gold stitching trims with softer suspension for a more smoother luxury ride.

As I'm currently looking for a GTR, this one is still advertised and it was last updated by the seller on 13 December. So this isn't a 2002 VSpec 2 hey? This would be an older car? Thanks All.

The 2002 M-Spec R34 GT-R did 'not' come out with the NACA Duct as did other VS-IIs.

The bonnet is aluminium 'not' C/F as with other VS-IIs. Believe it or not...

Leather - Yes

Power heated mirrors - Yes

Heated Front seats - Yes

Softer (fine grip) steering wheel - Yes

Ripple Control shockies for smoother ride - Yes

Softer Stabiliser -Yes

Typical VS-II rear stoppers - Yes

But... hang on...

Notice the pedals? Not typical VS-IIs in shape are they? Left foot rest is not aluminium either.

And as mentioned earlier, all M-Spec GT-Rs should have the larger/thicker NISSAN badge on the boot & this one doesn't.

Now Terry's puzzled...

Check the one on www.powerplayimports.com if you like?

^^^ Obtain the VIN# - Tell us what the "VIN Fasted" check reveals won't you?

With that check, also ascertain whether or not it comes from Northern Honshu or Hokkaido (re: possible rust from salted roads)

Sure will do. That M-Spec at Powerplay looks nice. I'll enquire on that one.

Cheers.

That seller has no clue about the real Nismo Tuned engines. There are 4 Nismo engine variants with an R34. They start with the S1, then R1 and the pinnacle is the Z Tuned motors. But in between the R and Z Tunes, Nismo decided to make one called a Fine Spec engine and only 70 of them were made in 2009. All sold out quite quickly.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.

      By Gantai · Posted

      Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
