Did they make a 94 model R33 GTR?

They made 32's til 94 which was the v-spec one but did they start to make the 33's that year as well? I always thought they started in 95......

Reason I ask is someone has one for sale.

No they didn't.

Oh and not all 94 GT-R's were V-spec.

You will probably find the bloke has made a mess of the dates. Get the numbers of the build plate & put it through fast for confirmation.

Exactly what he said.

The r33 gtr wasnt released till 1995 so he has either stuffed up with the dates or maybe something dodgey

I've got a 94 R32 GTR and it isn't a V-Spec...

Built in July 94.

yeah so? your missing the point.........

what it meant is that......the R32 GT-R V-spec was RELEASED, in 1994!!!! whilst the Standard GT-R was still on the market......get it?

same as the R34 GT-R... when the V-spec was introduced, you could still purchase the STANDARD GT-R brand new......get it?

Well, clearly something is wrong there..

No idea why the thumbs down and also why its impossible.

Paperwork, plates and all can confirm this.

lol i was just playing with ya

anyways...

obviously something went wrong with the compliance process....

how do you know the people didnt get things muddled up during compliance?

im pretty sure it states on the R32 GT-R Brochure that V-spec was released in 1994

so as babyskyline mentioned.....something might even be DOdgy...seller might have even bodged the books.

but if you think with your brain of it logically....

say Nissan released the R32 GT-R officially in 1994.................. what........all of a sudden they skipped the introduction of the R33 skyline GTS, GTS-T and skip the introduction of the R33 GT-R standard.....and wooooooooooop.................here you go R33 GT-R V-spec?!

like i said once again.....obviously something is suss......

Give me your chassis number and I'll plug it into FAST. The only thing I can guess is that they were built very late in '94 in preparation for the '95 release.

Thats the only thing that would make any sense because they would have to start producing them a a month or so before releasing them.

Yeah, all valid points, maybe there is something sus or a mix up during compliance.

I'll get the vin.

So, is it the problem that it is a v-spec or that it is a 94' R33 GTR at all..

yeah iron will sort it out.

ok heres another bit of info from one of my sources....

May 1989 - R32 Shape released

August 1989 - R32 GT-R released (280ps RB26DETT)

August 1991 - R32 GTS25 released (RB25DE)

Febuary 1993 - R32 GT-R V-spec released

August 1993 - R33 shape released

Febuary 1994 - R32 GT-R V-spec II released <-- when the R33 shape was out, as you can see they bought out a V-spec II just a year before they bought an R33 GT-R

January 1995 - R33 GT-R released

May 1998 - R34 shape released

January 1999 - R34 GT-R released

perhaps my suggestion was that the dates was that the GTR 1994 you know of....may have been built displaying the "date of manufacture"

so technically, its a 1995 model car when the first owner bought it brand new in the JDM and it just displays on the plate 1994.

so the with all the paper works.....mechanics, insurance companies, auction bidders, importers etc etc just went by whatever it said under the bonnet.........

makes sense though

but now come to think of it......

i recall seeing "1998 R34 GT-Rs" for sale...

and refering to the info above, it wasnt released in JDM at that stage...but once again a date of manufacture plate.

so this is obviouslt the same thing happening...

well at least you know that the 1998 GTR R34 & the 1994 GTR R33 is the ealiest and first of the first GT-Rs on the front row......

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
