I found these V-Spec GTRs on carsales that don't seem to have diffusers:

Have they been removed?

the first link has a non v-spec speedo so i would say it is a standard model (non v-spec) or if it is a v-spec the klm's are wrong as the speedo is not from that car

You've got Superman vision if you can pick that from the pic. There is in fact a difference between the two variants, but it is so tiny and negligible. Between the 0 and 1 numbers under the rpm, there is an extra line.

But there is another noticeable difference as well that I have found out through comparing the two models. V Spec cars have these air diversion plates on the front lower control arms. These things guide air to the front brakes. When I had a look at my friends non V Spec car, they were missing.

I've had two v-specs and a v-spec 2 and none had the front brake air guides attached. The bolt holes were there for them on all though. Something so easily removed or added probably isn't a good guide to a real one.

Thanks for the pm's guys, I'll get some pics and specs to you when at work tomorrow :geek:

bit more difference then that the 0 to 3 on the tacho is compressed where as the non v-spec it is normal check both pics i have put up dont really need superman vision to see it

The difference is so minor it is not worth the extra, whatever dollars the price tag says.

Or you'd rather save up for the aftermarket mods and put it to the base model.

R34 GTR V-Spec = Standard R34 GTR but came with ATTESA E-TS Pro system and an Active LSD at the rear.

Had harder suspension and lower ride height.

A plastic front air diffuser (covering the underside of the engine) and also a rear carbon fiber air diffuser, designed to keep air flowing smoothly under the car.

The Multifunction Display (MFD) had two extra features to the display: Intake and Exhaust Temperatures.

Ceramic twin turbo's.

R34 GTR V-Spec II = As above + an increase of hardness to the suspension and larger disk brakes on the rear.

OEM carbon fiber bonnet with an NACA Air Duct to vent air to the turbo side of the engine.

Iridium center console and aluminium pedals. (Just for looks)

Seat interior colour were black rather then gray, which was used on previous R34 GT-R models. (Just for looks)

Indicator lenses were replaced with white / clear instead of amber / orange. (Just for looks)

Ceramic twin turbo's.

And you get a "V-Spec" / "V-Spec II" Badge / sticker on the rear bar.

You would change the stock suspension over to a set of fully adjustable ones as it will better the handling over any stock suspension.

Did R34 standard and v-spec have ceramic exhaust wheels? Was it only the N1 that had steel wheels? I ask becuase I would like to upgrade to steel wheel turbos in my R32 and I was under the impression all R34's had steel exhaust wheels.

Yeah!

Only The R34 GTR N1 / V-Spec II Nur / M-Spec Nur had the Steel Wheel Turbines.

According to the turbo chart I have, R34 GTR N1 Turbines have similar specs to the Garrett -7's and HKS GT-SS'.

just some food for thought (and a bit of a shameless plug)

whilst the R badge is alluring, i wouldn't count out a well sorted rwd RB25, especially for street duties.

290rwkw, my car is quicker than even most modified GTR's - had a kit that makes most people think it is a GTR.

Has the ultra, uber expensive rear diffuser (yes it does make a difference) - friendlier engine and gearbox for around town, and cheaper in the modification/maintenance stakes.

GTR rims which sit perfect on a GTT as compared to a GTR. Plus you'll have a bunch of cash left over to do a HEAP more things if you really want.

something to ponder on perhaps :D

plus you can't beat black on black :cool:

That thing is a weapon and even some of the other r34s there, strap in and hang on for half the price of doing it yourself here

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      This. As for your options - I suggest remote mounting the Nissan sensor further away on a length of steel tube. That tube to have a loop in it to handle vibration, etc etc. You will need to either put a tee and a bleed fitting near the sensor, or crack the fitting at the sensor to bleed it full of oil when you first set it up, otherwise you won't get the line filled. But this is a small problem. Just needs enough access to get it done.

      J50 clock date suddenly reset to January 1

      By suko · Posted

      The time is always correct. Only the date is wrong. It currently thinks it is January 19. Tomorrow it will say it is January 20. The date and time are ( should be ! ) retrieved from the GPS navigation system.

      Buy yourself a set of easy outs. See if they will get a good bite in and unthread it.   Very very lucky the whole sender didn't let go while on the track and cost you a motor!

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Well GTSBoy, prepare yourself further. I did a track day with 1/2 a day prep on Friday, inpromptu. The good news is that I got home, and didn't drive the car into a wall. Everything seemed mostly okay. The car was even a little faster than it was last time. I also got to get some good datalog data too. I also noticed a tiny bit of knock which was (luckily?) recorded. All I know is the knock sensors got recalibrated.... and are notorious for false knock. So I don't know if they are too sensitive, not sensitive enough... or some other third option. But I reduced timing anyway. It wasn't every pull through the session either. Think along the lines of -1 degree of timing for say, three instances while at the top of 4th in a 20 minute all-hot-lap session. Unfortunately at the end of session 2... I noticed a little oil. I borrowed some jack stands and a jack and took a look under there, but as is often the case, messing around with it kinda half cleaned it up, it was not conclusive where it was coming from. I decided to give it another go and see how it was. The amount of oil was maybe one/two small drops. I did another 20 minute session and car went well, and I was just starting to get into it and not be terrified of driving on track. I pulled over and checked in the pits and saw this: This is where I called it, packed up and went home as I live ~20 min from the track with a VERY VERY CLOSE EYE on Oil Pressure on the way home. The volume wasn't much but you never know. I checked it today when I had my own space/tools/time to find out what was going on, wanted to clean it up, run the car and see if any of the fittings from around the oil filter were causing it. I have like.. 5 fittings there, so I suspected one was (hopefully?) the culprit. It became immediately apparent as soon as I looked around more closely. 795d266d-a034-4b8c-89c9-d83860f5d00a.mp4       This is the R34 GTT oil sender connected via an adapter to an oil cooler block I have installed which runs AN lines to my cooler (and back). There's also an oil temp sensor on top.  Just after that video, I attempted to unthread the sensor to see if it's loose/worn and it disintegrated in my hand. So yes. I am glad I noticed that oil because it would appear that complete and utter catastrophic engine failure was about 1 second of engine runtime away. I did try to drill the fitting out, and only succeeded in drilling the middle hole much larger and now there's a... smooth hole in there with what looks like a damn sleeve still incredibly tight in there. Not really sure how to proceed from here. My options: 1) Find someone who can remove the stuck fitting, and use a steel adapter so it won't fatigue? (Female BSPT for the R34 sender to 1/8NPT male - HARD to find). IF it isn't possible to remove - Buy a new block ($320) and have someone tap a new 1/8NPT in the top of it ($????) and hope the steel adapter works better. 2) Buy a new block and give up on the OEM pressure sender for the dash entirely, and use the supplied 1/8 NPT for the oil temp sender. Having the oil pressure read 0 in the dash with the warning lamp will give me a lot of anxiety driving around. I do have the actual GM sensor/sender working, but it needs OBD2 as a gauge. If I'm datalogging I don't actually have a readout of what the gauge is currently displaying. 3) Other? Find a new location for the OEM sender? Though I don't know of anywhere that will work. I also don't know if a steel adapter is actually functionally smart here. It's clearly leveraged itself through vibration of the motor and snapped in half. This doesn't seem like a setup a smart person would replicate given the weight of the OEM sender. Still pretty happy being lucky for once and seeing this at the absolute last moment before bye bye motor in a big way, even if an adapter is apparently 6 weeks+ delivery and I have no way to free the current stuck/potentially destroyed threads in the current oil block.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?
