How Well Do You Know The R32 Gt-r. Godzilla?

[jiffo]

Eh?

Sierra Costworth 1240kg.

Nissan tractor R32 GTR 1430kg.

So, approx 190kg. Which is about 420lb.

Yep the usual inaccuracies with manufacturer's stats.

My fueled up 32 scaled in a touch under 1500kg.

R32 GTRs from factory have the most understeer of any GTRs

[GTR-N1]

DID YOU KNOW THAT Bridgestone manufactured a special Potenza tyre for the R32 GT-R?

And it was...?

[J - Rad]

RE 01R? Thats what I got on my stockies

[NISSAN GTR]

nice one !

Potenza RE-71 225/50/16 were the sticky tyres that Bridgestone developed back then for the GT-R. RE-010 for the V-Spec.

Next Q. Do you know what the 1st prize will be for the "Best R32 GT-R" at the R32 GT-R 21st Anniversary event next month, besides getting an Award Certificate signed by Terry Ashwood?

This will have to be confirmed at 100%, but apparently the late R32 GTR's (>2/93) share the same engine as the R33 GTR's, including the crankshaft with wider oil pump drive and the pull type clutch setup.

[Duncan]

absolutely correct....in fact I pulled apart a 94 R32 on the weekend and it has pull clutch and long oil pump drive. also had what I would normally call 33 gtst calipers instead of the similar but different external r32 gtr calipers. few other wierd things too.

The exclusive colour was paintcode "BLO"

The exclusive colour was paintcode "BLO"

BL0 - greyish blue pearl was also available on v spec 2

[GTR-N1]

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.

~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.

And what was the date of the NISMO Version release?

[Grey89Godzilla]

Is the transfer in the late 32's an r33 style also? i.e. is it not safe to run them in 2wd (fuse out) mode?

Did you know for the Aust. R32 GTR there was no reverse lights beside the rear number plates, replaced the indicators as reverse lights, and so the outer brakes lights made orange.

I googled them. Australian delivered R32 GTR tail lights are here: https://cars2.ebay.com.au/NISSAN-SKYLINE-R3...bayphotohosting

Wow. Has someone got a pic of the rear and front bars aswell?

This topic is awesome, keep sharing thanks.

Mr Samo - the J-Spec GTR's actually produced less power than the Gibson Motorsport GTR's.

When Gibson order the GTR's, they cam race prepped with 500hp Nismo motors etc, and Gibson played with them and bumped them to 600hp.

Gibson Motorsport were invited to compete in Japan with their GTR's (against other tuner GTR's), however Nismo told them not to come as they would annihilate the competition.

[N1GTR]

^^^ The NISMO vid posted in this section shows the Gibson cars starting life as standard road cars then built. Not from NISMO.

Also NISMO's own cars were slower than the Gibson ones, that's why they weren't allowed to go

5 internets to anyone who can tell me when the last run of R32 GTR's was, what colour and how many?

5 more internets if you know what the luxury skyline model was called when first released, and who designed it (if you work this out, it should give you a hint to the first question)

A. The Infiniti G by Hiroshi Hasegawa

And what are "internets" anyway?

I would guess then Hiroshi Hasegawa did the r32 gtr too and the were white and about (from wikipedia) 2756 of them.
