Hi all

I'm a migrant from the Toyota forums, due to I've just got an R32 GT-R V-Spec with Dad for a daily/trackwork.

My personal car is an 84 Toyota Supra with the 7MGTE turbo engine transplant.... I've spent shitloads on it and it's now in showroom condition, 230rwkw, 326 brembo brakes etc etc

I've also got an old S class Merc (3.8l V8) which hates the environment.

thats about it! keen to get the gt-r (thursday) and put a power fc on it etc

What ways can i determine if it is a genuine V spec? It's midnight blue... 92 model... seems to have bigger brakes but I'm not 100% sure...

anyway thanks and ciao for now

  • 3 weeks later...

here is the car. turned out to not be a v-spec, but a 1990 model.

Proper pics soon.

It's a 1990 Nissan Skyline GT-R, in KF1 dark blue pearl. 99,500kms.

Car is very very clean, still had some cool Japanese stuff in it (Purikura, flares etc). First registered owner in Aus.

Mods:

17x9" BBS LM wheels

Tein coilovers (currently getting rebuilt)

Shiny 3.5" cat back with milo tin sized muffler

Strut brace

HKS hardpipes

Really gay CD stacker that I can't turn off

Still has original airbox, timing belt was done 20,000kms ago.

And I want to change that strange grille for the genuine GT-R one.

Next up is dumps and frontpipes, (are the justjap spec ones alright?) and k&n filter in stock airbox.

Good fun car though! Got some new tyres today.

Will be used as a daily by Dad and myself and also as tarmac rally car/track racer.

    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
    • Probably. I take it that they are also mentioned to be for R34 Skyline? For example.... RDA has that part as RDA7957. I have the dimpled and slotted version of that on my car https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/285518478694?srsltid=AfmBOopKxMuAFpsxZJdB1cam4D5RAj1f9yJyOttPZLAwXVNCOiwlhrIy This is DBA's top one piece equivalent https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364246686631?srsltid=AfmBOorbb0XHQgqTvZLgQPhg70nqJtGvdojKnugum3O2LFSr2h-obp8D
