Ok, I've been doing some research on these elusive creatures, and I'm figuring the collective wisdom of SAU may be able to unearth more info than I've been able to find on the net.

What I know so far:

45 built, 12 of which were track cars, 33 registered

No ABS, air con, rear wiper, audio, trim in the boot

Unpainted CF bonnet

N1 motor obviously

Does anyone know anything else? Build dates or chassis numbers? What they look like in FAST? If it's posted elsewhere and I can't find it, then please point me there, otherwise, I'm all ears.

Homologation Special N1 has a hand built motor from Nissan's Race Engine Div'n.

It has a stronger block

Fully balanced bottom end along with forged pistons, new conrods, oil and water pumps

Different Exhaust Manifold

Steel-internal Turbos

Bigger Oil Cooler

Larger Rear brakes

Run-out R34 GT-R Skylines were Nur editions of V-Spec II & M-Spec in February '02 using the N1 engine from the homologation special. All sold on the day of release.

Cheers, T

Thanks to the (anonymous) champion who emailed me a heap of gear. List price was 6.1 million yen before taxes!! Ouch!

Other interesting info was that there were 45 V Spec N1s built as I mentioned earlier, but also a handful of V Spec II N1s built to order, of which there are suspected to be less than 20 in existence.

    • I don't think the shuffle can damage the turbos. It only happens at low shaft speeds and loads. It's just annoying (to some people - others are tickled by the effect) and it quite possibly reduces spool performance a little bit.
    • Oh dear. The panel beating needs to be done before the filler work. Do you have a photo of the dent before you started? Hard enough to not flex and only hit the high spots?  What do you mean it was just temporary? 
    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly.
