Sorry don't have fast to check it, but when it comes back the model number needs to have a "ZN" in it.

Mine is

KBNR32RXFSZN

Some other quick checks

N1's don't have ABS

No boot carpets

Plastice bonnet lip, and rear boot lid lip (under the standard spoiler

Of course all these can be added/removed, so VIN number is best.

N1's were released on the 19th of July 1991

Have you got Brembo Brakes?

Do you have the rear wiper swtich?

What colour is your car? R32 GTR N1's only came out in a thin layer of Crystle White - Nissan Paint Code = 326

N1's are identified by having 24U stamped / embossed on the Block as opposed to 05U.

Brembo's - 91/92 N1's came with standard calipers - As far as i know

24U v 05U - I'm yet to see any conclussive evidence that ALL N1's have 24U. I was actually told that the earlier models were stamped just the same as standard GTR's. Mine for example is 05U. I've had the car inspected by numerous mechanics and not 1 of them said that there is any evidence that the engine has been swapped(inspecting mounts etc). It's also a very low k's car with log books and service record.

Not that that's 100% conclusive.

There's a guy in the UK which is currently writing a "mini" book on N1's which I'm helping sort of with. He's got a few contacts and is sending me a copy as soon as it's done.

Correct - it's not an N1. FAST is all you need to verify that one.

hey guys thanks heaps for all your trouble, i thought the chassis number would tell me , but it doesnt have a rear wiper switch it does have the front lip on bonnet and under rear spoiler so not sure what that means

(maybe vspec2 ?) the car is heavily modified so brakes are changed etc. nobody said to me it was an N1 i bought it off the street in tokyo as is , i just noticed it had no rear wiper and it was arctic white so thought i might have

hit the jackpot ....... no matter was thinking of selling it so if it was N1 i would have put it in the advert

thanks again guys

Here's a VIN to check out:

BNR32-219551

BTW - the guy in the UK writing a mini book about N1's: does anyone know of anyone keeping a list of where the R32 N1's ended up? Would also like to get intouch with this fellow...

That appears to be an N1, that chassis, but I always find R32 model codes hard to decipher on FAST.

A mate an I are in the process of gathering data on all N1s to make an online register (and other rare Skylines for that matter). When I get time to scratch myself, I might devote a bit more time to it!

On that subject, please include an area to perhaps list current fakes for sale, would be a helpful source for those looking as another means to reference check

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
