are you sure its a v-spec II because it is missing its carbon bonnet and rear carbon diffuser also the rear v-spec II sticker looks suss its not sitting in the right spot its too far to the left on the rear bumber, did you run the vin number through the nissan fast software?

While that may send off warning signals there are other factors that may have lead to the sticker having to be re-added to the car. resprays, accident damage or such. Its also possible that the CF bonnet may have been switched out...there are extra reasons for everything =b

As long as hes happy with it, should be all that really matters.

Cant be any worse than most of the GTS-ts in melbourne having GTR badges fitted to their boots.

Half of which are probably stolen from real GTRs...damn badge thieves.

Its true, my bonnet is sold cos i wanted the ztune one so alot of people will have the same thoughts and yeah the rear bar was probably resprayed due to a crappy carpark driver (my front bar has been sprayed already and needs another one again; damn careless carparks grrrrr.)

Thanks for the backup =D

But yeah there are any number of reasons it could be like that.

yes thats pathetic

theres a black R34 GT-T with a GT-R badge at the boot

the whole car looks nothing like a GT-R

to me thats degrading the GT-R image

good luck fitting the wheels!

anyway, VERY nice car Andy. wish i could afford one myself!

Haha, nah, it's a little joke between Andy and I. Told him not to put crappy wheels on the GTR! We know each other because of our STi ownership (ex for me).

From what he told me, the diffuser was stolen in Japan, and he's ordered a Top Secret diffuser as a replacement. The abscence of the carbon bonnet is a mystery..

i was thinking more along the lines of the STi being 5x100 and they actually wouldnt fit the GTR :P

+1 for who cares about where the parts have gone. he is happy, thats all that matters!

exactly right.

  • 2 weeks later...

Andy sent me a couple of pictures of his car, and i noticed something strange:

His rear diff doesn't look like mine. Is it possible that his car is a non Vspec (without active diff)?

We're just trying to work out which exact model his car is. Is has Vspec II interior, but no bonnet or diffuser. Also his MFD doesn't display intake and exhaust temp, which i believe is featured on Vspec's...Hope i'm wrong for his sake!

looks like it is not a v-spec II, the black interior is shared between the standard and v-spec II models from october 2000 onwards as are the N1 rear disc rotors so this is not really a way to tell the difference ,the MFD should have 7 parameters for a v-spec/v-specII/m-spec where as the standard model eg non v-spec will only have 5 parameters also check the tacho the 1 to 3 on the v-spec models will be compressed this is if it is the orginal speedo ,you can also check the code on the build plate look at the 6th letter it should start with GGJPRW the W means its a v-spec/v-spec II etc if it has a V instead of the W it is a non v-spec model

    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
