As far as I know the difference between a vspec I and vspec II is all in the suspension & diff setups......vspec I was setup for general road use whereas the vspec II was setup to lap the Nurburg ring (harder setup!!)

SKYLINEGTR, I have THE GT-R BIBLE at home, and I'll be able to answer you question in detail. But I'm at work now, so I'll post up tonight sometime.

It's a Hyper Rev/Nissan/JAF silver special edition... my most prized automotive book, it chronicles the timeline from BNR32 to 34 with every concievable model variation and detail... in Japanese!

It's a special edition, and I tried to look for another copy in the shops but they were either sold out, or in very short supply. I has mine mailed to me by my Japanese mate who works in Honda PR... he (his department) apparently got advanced copies from Hyper Rev as a freebee.

As for English translation copies, no chance. Although I might publish something like it in the future...? (business opportunity:))

They don`t... only for the R32 and R34.

Anyway, the difference between an R32 GT-R V-spec and V-SpecII is... (feels like de ja vu):

The V-SpecII has different tires, Bridgestone Potenza R010 245/45ZR17 to be exact, a "V-SpecII" sticker on the righthand side of the bootlid, and the V-SpecII was available in Crystal White (326).

"Is that it?!" Your probably asking... Yes.

Apparently, Nissan wanted to use those 245/45 R010 Potenza`s with the release of the V-Spec, but they (the tires) weren`t available at that time. It just so happend that the V-SpecII is more of a "4 Years at the top of Group-A" commemorative model, rather than a vastly improved model over the V-Spec.

Is that an OK answer?:)

      Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
