VIN:- 6U9000BNR32309534

This is an R32 GTR chassis number as recorded on the Australian system (original Japanese VIN with 6U9 and some 0's in front to make it 17 digits) and it belongs to a crystal white coloured May 1994 built GTR so it could well be a V-Spec model although it appears not to be from what I can see so far.

HCR32-259470

This is the Japanese VIN number from a November 1991 model GTS-T (a gunmetal grey coloured 4 door sedan with automatic transmission to be precise) ... this build date means that it's not allowed for import to Australia (mid-1991 to mid-1992 are not allowed for import) so there is a chance that it was imported illegally or was found to be a non-importable model once it arrived, and then may have been re-identified with a wrecked GTR's compliance information.

rb20det 1998

This is an R32 GTS-T engine code and cubic capacity ... does this car actually have an RB20DET engine (2000cc single turbo) or an RB26DETT (2600cc twin turbo) as it should if it were a GTR?

I would strongly advise you to look into this further before doing anything ... something is seriously wrong with the details you have given here. Check what VIN number is listed on your invoice and also what is on the import approval and/or compliance paperwork that you should have recieved with the car. I can check more details for you if required and give some advice on how to deal with it if necessary so please feel free to email me with any more details at [email protected]

They should not be on the same car ... I assume the 6U9000BNR32309534 is on a seperate VIN plate fitted for Australian compliance (and probably later swapped by someone dodgy to another car) and the HCR32-259470 number is on the factory build plate along with the other details given in the first post. If the BNR32 number and HCR32 number are both on the factory build plate then there is even more weird things going on here.

Quick questions:

- how many doors does this car have & what colour is it?

- what is the VIN number stamped into the firewall by the factory?

The 6u9000 number is on a tag on the strut tower which matches the number stamped on the firewall.

I have no doubt its a GTR as i used to have a 92 GTR so it has all the right bits.

pumped rear guards , alloy bonnet etc. its white , and has a N1 or Vspec bodykit , front bar is plastic? and it does have 2 doors.

I will double check which plate has what numbers , i agree hcr32 is a gtst number so i will have to look into that and get back to you, i do know that the hcr32 number and the RCR32 model number are on the same plate and its the one with the japanese writing on it.

I will get back to you tomorrow , but thanks everyone for your help.

according to the code he has provided its Gunmetal Grey

somthin seems very suss here..

With any luck it's just a case of it having the HCR32 body tags stuck on the BNR32 body, although I can't imagine why anyone would do that ... in any case just let us know if you need any more answers or help with anything there.

All that is stuff that could quite easily been put on...

How about the important stuff like, I dunno...

Driveshafts connected to the front wheels, twin turbos, the RB26 engine...

You know, the sorta stuff you wouldnt normally expect to see in a GTSt thats been done up to look like a GTR

Can you help me identify whether a car I am looking at is indeed a GTR V Spec? The car is advertised as a White 1994 R32 V Spec and has a VIN No 6U9000BNR32314072. Is there a way of checking if in fact this is as it appears?

thanks Mike

Built October 1994, doesn't appear to be a V-Spec. That late in 1994 it would've been a V-Spec II anyway.

Hi Iron Chef thanks for your quick reply, I really appreciate it. This info is a great service

So from your check was it white, and can I be sure that it is not a V Spec?

regards

    • I am getting the same issue. Did you resolve it? I just got it after installing my new super coppermix and literally the same issue, new fork, new 18mm carrier, release bearing that came with the kit and replicated the exact same sound. 
    • If you like - I have the STL files so I can email em. There's a couple of gotchas (i.e the holes are not threaded so you might need/will need) to utilize some M3 melt-in threads for some of the points. However if you want to be super accurate, and are willing to remove your calipers and your SHOCKS it's a really good tool. You also might need to scale the part that measures the tyre width a bit wider. It defaults to a 7.5in tyre and I mean who is running that. Luckily with the magic of CAD this is very easy to rescale.
    • jeebus. glad you weren't under it while performing the stunt. Also thanks for the link to the wheel measurer, exactly what I needed
    • In the older stuff there were very significant differences 2wd to 4wd, for example Stagea had strut front end for 2wd and double wishbone for 4wd so it was not minor to swap. From poking around the 2wd v37, it *looks* like it might be more possible; some of the parts specifically have "2wd" stamped on them which suggests the platforms are more similar. You'd still want to start with a 4wd half cut to swap stuff from though. I'd suggest if you don't have a tune on the ECU you don't really need one on the trans either. Throttle mapping is in the ECU side (and you can always use a Roar Pedal if you want the throttle to actually respond to your foot), and really if you are happy with the stock power you probably accept the stock trans behaviour too....its all made to be "sporty" not racey.
    • So, updates. I have not washed the car since it came back from Tassie. I've driven it around a bit but not got around to actually sorting it out. I DID raise it because I cracked the rear bar leaving a hotel which was very distressing. Interestingly, the car drives more compliant now that it's raised a fair bit (5mm front, 15mm rear). Also noticed that my FR height was 10mm lower than FL. So that's now sorted out, too. I also bought this and had it printed: https://www.etsy.com/au/listing/1576422240/wheel-and-tire-fitment-tool-universal?ref=shop_home_feat_1&dd=1&logging_key=08f604d9fa4cc383550ba985e6ac85cd5cac7fbb%3A1576422240 Now, if I was smart I would have taken my brake calipers off to actually use this correctly but it was evident enough to me that in the region where the caliper was... there was nothing to hit suspension/guard/arm wise. So I'm going with "it'll be fine" after using the tool to hopefully very precisely measure the wheel clearance. Also while doing this, I had the very VERY bad idea of jacking one of the wheels/suspension arms up while the rest of the car was on jack stands. I did this to see how the arm would travel. This all was well and good until the car slid off the stands and went through a fence. So don't do that. Incredibly nobody was hurt and there was only minor damage to the rear bumper as the car didn't have far to slide, and had 3-4 wheels on it. The only damage turned out to be the fence itself which was easy to fix, and a little bit of damage to the fibreglass rear bumper trim. I had already planned to try a touch up paint kit to fix the time I drove into my garage door to see if it'd help in the interim before I get it fixed properly. I used the Dr Colorchip kit after looking online and seeing everyone talking about it. Yes it's made for chips and not huge broken missing pieces and I'll be 500% recommending it for stone chips after using it for stupid things like me. This took about ... 10 minutes and looking at the half assed photo the 30 second job I did on the bumper corner was almost perfect just by using the tiny little brush and painting it in. The sealact stuff to remove over-painting is really useful, so if/when I do it again I'll likely slather the touch up paint well over it and then clean it up with the cleaning solution. The wheels should arrive in a couple of weeks. I am still kinda confident after doing a stupid amount of measuring (and borrowing a set of 18x10.5+15) that they will not fit because I overlooked something, somehow and flew too close to the sun. ALSO R34 GTR guard liners do not fit on a GTT. I bought the undertray brake duct guides and had the wonderful problem of them not fitting my intake, my oil cooler and the liners themselves were even worse. Attempting to fit them won't work in general - You would have to cut them up as another poster mentioned as the bodywork is different on the GTT. At least I can try to resell them. So instead of cutting those up, I cut up my old already-cut-up GTT liners and extended them by using some PP plastic and drilling some 8mm holes for some nissan clips for the 'extra' bit. Because I was happy to cut them I was able to mount them pretty damn forward so I now have some semblance of guard liners, and the brake vents seal the bumper from the bottom. It sort-of-looks like this, to give some idea - If you look at the GTR and then the GTT this is when I realised that I needed to seriously measure as the inside of the rim area is entirely, entirely, entirely different and could not take any internet measurements for granted.
