HEKT1K Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 Aus delivered R32GTR's had some things and different stuff, such as:260KM dash no speed limiter? small rubber aerial on the roof near the rear windscreen tail light wiring setup was different and indicators at the back were orange lens 20mm wider front seats transfercase oil cooler and electric pump number plate bracket wider and rear bar number plate recess wider to fit aus plates side intrusion bars. Thats all I can remember, there is probably more. Also from around 1992 for JDM models headlights were a little different to earlier ones (parker light diffuser removed), side intrusion bars became standard and thats part of the reason why later GTR's were heavier than the 1989-1991 GTR's. haha for fat aussies. also a NISSAN badge on the bonnet Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/328927-how-well-do-you-know-the-r32-gt-r-godzilla/page/3/#findComment-5378274 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTRsean Posted August 1, 2010 Share Posted August 1, 2010 Yep for bigger butts lolz. The headlights were wired up differently too for Aus delivered GTR's..... So that when high beam was selected, low beam would stay on. 70% sure on that one. Can anyone clarify?

NISMO Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 re colours, there were only 2 models to come in exclusive colours in the GTR range, that is, no choice, you want this car you get this colour NISMO edition - Gun Metal Grey N1 - Crystal White There were a couple of very limited release colours, but none that i know of which were exclusive other than the above Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/328927-how-well-do-you-know-the-r32-gt-r-godzilla/page/3/#findComment-5380636 Share on other sites More sharing options...
NISMO Posted August 2, 2010 Share Posted August 2, 2010 Also some small N1 facts Windscreen washer bottle - due to no rear wiper, the design is slightly different and only houses one little pump where as the normal GTR's have 2, 1 for rear wiper, 1 for fronts No radio control buttons on the dash, instead a blank cap in their place Solid disk rotors instead of drilled Front brake air guides All the ABS wiring was left in, it was just the units and solid lines which were removed, and of course different master cylinder Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/328927-how-well-do-you-know-the-r32-gt-r-godzilla/page/3/#findComment-5380638 Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the chassis number & parts listing for the Australian delivered GTR's. Having sat my import next to a local delivered example I can confidently say that the seats are the same. Also the aerial was at the front of the roof, not the back. It replaced the one in the windscreen - hence the different part number for that. Wierd, random stuff they changed included the sun visors, adjustng the speed limiter and for some reason there is a listing for a jack. index3.pdf Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/328927-how-well-do-you-know-the-r32-gt-r-godzilla/page/3/#findComment-5383219 Share on other sites More sharing options...
PR34CH Posted August 13, 2010 Author Share Posted August 13, 2010 Did you know that there were:~Standard Cars = 40,390 ~NISMO Group A Evolution = 560 ~V-Spec = 1,453 ~V-Spec II = 1,303 ~N1 Race Version = 228 ~43,930 in total produced of the 32 gtr ~Originally only 510 were suppose to be made to be within the rules of Japans Group A racing but demade was so stong that they released the model for unlimited production. Hence the 560 for the Nismo Group A total. ~The N1 doesn't have abs, air conditioning, sound system, rear wiper, trunk carpet, and the use of light-weight headlights and were only produced with a crystal white paint. ~The V-spec models have brembo brakes, a retuned attesa system to the N1 and nismo options and they weigh 50kg more than the standard gtrs. The V-spec II also had 17" rims ~Production of the Gtr started out in May 22, 1989 ~The first Gtr was produced in February 4, 1969 know as PGC10. This is an awesome thread and should be sticky'd as well. Also the first link doesn't work OHY34H Don't know why the link doesn't work now, pretty sure it did before... Anyways, look @ my sig under the pic for a direct link (should work i hope) And its really interesting how much people know detailed facts keep up the discussions!

GTR-N1 Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 There was one car that NISSAN regarded as the most technologically advanced car in the world.

Marlin Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 You are both right. Just remember why nissan claimed 206kw when in fact it was no where near the real output. The gentlemens agreement. Fun Fact; Nissan Austrlaia claimed 205KW for the GTR, not 206KW as per Japan.

"NO"... but another resource in haynes.co.uk - yes (which quoted 200kg difference depending on the setup) but perhaps you can come up with a "DID YOU KNOW THAT...?" yourself jiffo from the Brooklands source? Hmmm... DID YOU KNOW THAT there was a nickname given to the stove-oven lights of the R32 (even tho' they first appeared on the KPGC110)?
