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.

Can anyone else clarify if there isn't such a thing as a Nismo M-tune?.

[NYTSKY]

As sh@un said,its M-spec not M-tune.

[DarkChild]

That just looks like a normal V-Spec with Nismo Skirts.

[.:: GimpS-R34 ::.]

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.

yeh I could tell it was no vspec 2 or m-spec from the obvious . Looks like there's no such thing as an m-tune after all .

You moving on from the R33 already?

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?

Thanks Terry, this is an unusual one.

Cheers.

^^^ 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)

[Godzilla GTR]

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

Cheers.

Spotted that original ad a while back and had a chuckle...

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.
