R34 Gt-r N1 Goodness

I did promise a while back that I'd be getting a 34 GT-R, and I'm still pinching myself that I've actually bought this one.

2001 R34 V Spec II N1 with 24,000km on the clock.

For the V-Spec N1, it was a well-publicised fact that only 45 were built, and that the vast majority of those went straight to the track rather than being street registered. My GT-R guru mate reckons that the number of street registered examples left is probably somewhere around 15.

Here's where it gets interesting, Nissan also built an N1 version of the V-Spec II, but it was on special order from selected dealers only, and they were built in very small runs of 5 at a time. His educated guess was that there were only 20 built, and of those, race cars outnumbered street cars by 2 or 3 to 1.

Believe it or not, of these, there are actually 2 V Spec II N1s already in Australia! Both of them are fairly heavily modified and being used for Targa Tas and similar events. In fact, one of them won Targa Tas a few years back.

And now, there is a third in Oz :rolleyes: It hopefully arrive somewhere around Christmas time, just in time for me to enjoy it through summer with no air con lol

I seriously can't believe the lack of info on the net about N1s - I'm gonna start a register so people can keep track of them all, as well as provide more info on them.

Anyway, a couple of teaser pics for you all to have a look at :D Can you guess I'm a little bit excited?? lol

looks awesome. Call me gay and paint me pink but i just couldn't deal with a R34 GTR with no AC

lol I have a daily driver with air con that works perfectly :rolleyes: I doubt that, even with air con, the N1 would be the kind of car I'd be taking out for a thrash on a 40 degree day...

I'll come to an SAU cruise, no probs, but won't be for a fair while yet.

There was the option with the V-Spec IIs of putting a stereo back into it which has happened in mine, but I think it's a single CD unit, possibly with no radio, because I know the aerial has been removed.

I thought all GTR's had the antenna in the middle of the windscreen? Or did they just not bother with the N1 ?

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      By Duncan · Posted

      I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      One year is a bit concerning. Did you try contacting GSP? It says 5 year warranty on the box if I remember correctly. I'm also running their driveshafts on my S2 Stagea.   You could check the part numbers on Amayama for your year. Here's the link for my 1998 which gives the 39100-23U60 part number. Well, that and 39100-23U70. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/trans/391 What does it say for yours?

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      By S1_C34 · Posted

      I ordered a GSP Front R/H Axle from here - https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-front-driveshaft-r-h-nissan-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-stagea-4wd#description It lasted around a year before one of the boots blew out. I'm lowered, but I have GKTech roll center adjusters. One year seems a little premature. I think I'm going to spend the extra money on an OEM cv axle this time. This website - https://tfaspeed.com/collections/nissan-stagea-wgnc34-x-four-parts/products/nissan-stagea-awc34-260rs-rb26-right-front-axle-drive-assembly Makes it sound like the readily available OEM CV axle will only fit 11.1999 Stagea and up (mine is a 2.1997 S1). The JustJap listing didn't mention any years or anything for the GSP axle. Amayama shows '11.1999' and up as well for that part number. As well as 'plastic boot type'. See attached picture. So I guess my question is, does that axle (39100-23U60) really only fit S2 Stagea? It's the front driver side. If it does, I'd love to buy that instead of rolling the dice on another GSP. I've found that OEM one cheaper here: https://www.partsfornissans.com/oem-parts/nismo-jdm-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-r32-gts4-right-front-axle-3910023u60 and here https://www.nissanparts.cc/oem-parts/nismo-shaft-ft-drive-3910023u60 Just a little confused because the JapSpeed listing for the GSP front driver axle doesn't mention any specific years or anything and it fit my S1 Stagea fine. So will 39100-23U60 fit my S1 Stagea even though technically it says '11.1999' and up? What would have changed? Thanks.

      CD009 RB Conversion

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.

      Yep that is correct. It allows you to adjust the short throw range from what I can tell
