Swap N1 R34 Gtr For R35 + $$


Recommended Posts

The N1 that is the topic of this thread is actually rarer than the Z-Tune, in numbers terms ;)

Value wise, 150-200? No idea, just guessing.

Forget the Z-tune - lets start talking about the KPGC10 coupes - how many of them are in Oz, and how much would they be going for?

Hmms.. interesting comparison.

But weren't they at the plenty back in the day?

well theres only 19 of them so i'd be pretty careful. Its rarer than a lot of higher-end hypercars that cost many times the cost of a Z-tune (AM One-77 springs to mind).

I know in Japan you sometimes see one at those Daikoku Futo meets so they do get driven, but imagine if you owned a car that was 1 of 19 in the existence. you certainly wouldn't drive it everyday. i might make an early morning breakfast run on the sunday though.

Understand what your trying to say...but at the end of the day your trying to compare a nissan (yes a very very good one), with an aston martin which is a luxury car. The DBS is worth well over $500k starting price. The GTR new is say 170k starting point.

Your trying to compare an apple with a hand made chocolate covered strawberry here lol

thats not a gtr, just a regular pgc10 (still kill for one of them lol). geniune s20 engined originals go for $150k minimum i believe

+1

And I hate seeing the "GTR" badge on a "Non" KPGC10.

whats the deal wiith the N1's.

My sources say there were 45 made. This right?

If so,how is this rarer than the 19 Z tunes?

thats what i wondered about. The only thing I can think of is that there's not 45 *road-going* N1's still around as some of them were sold to Japanese tuning houses who turned them into dedicated track cars.

But i still thought the Z-tune was the pinnacle 34. Then the N1, then the M-spec Nurs, V-spec Nurs, etc.

Follow up question: What was the R-tune/S-tune? Never been able to find much info on them. Were they customer cars that Omori tuned right or were they sold from production?

Ye makes sence but, realistically its not like they were all totalled.

Also failed to find out info on R tune/S tune,but from my understanding you sent your GTR to nismo and they fitted s/r tune parts to your car.

I believe what Mr Chef is talking about is the actual model. The magic number of VSpec II N1 cars is 18. Thus making it rarer, ever so slightly, than z tunes.

There is a guy here in Melbourne with an s tune gtr. Gets it serviced at chasers and has had a few offers around the 110k mark.

My understanding is you went to Omori with your gtr and they had different performance packages that you can buy from them.

Ive got some photos of the car on my phone that i haven't uploaded yet but heres a fb link and if you scroll down a bit you will find his car

More so of what they are rather then how many built.

They came factory with a N1 Engine.

N1Twin Turbos (Steel internal ball bearing)

N1 cylinder block (Reinforced with larger cooling channels)

N1 pistons

N1 piston rings

N1 Con-rods

N1 oil pump

N1 water pump

N1 exhaust manifold

Cam shafts are further balanced (From memory)

Sold with no A/C, Radio / CD Player / Rear Wiper / Boot Carpet

That is correct, Nismo S and R Tunes are up to the decision of the customer.

In the past there was:

- Nismo Sports Resetting

- Nismo S-Tune S1

- Nismo R-Tune R1

- Nismo F-Sport GT

Now there is:

- Nismo Sports Resetting

- Nismo S2

- Nismo R2

^^ kk thanks

That pic just helped me make the decision to put Nismo stripes on....

To answer the questions about Nismo R1/R-tune, the short answer is Nismo never actually stuck to their own rules, so every car is basically different, based on what the owner asked for. There were package deals referred to as R1 and S1 that matched the R1 and S1 engine conversions, but even those didn't offer the full list of parts available. I've still never managed to extract any more information from them about my car other than the conversion was done at Omori. They just never bothered keeping records on it.

For reference, mine has an R1 engine, S-tune suspension, and a whole swag of other bits and pieces. The only other R1/N1 combo in existence resides in Europe somewhere.

Just to clarify on the VSpec N1s, 45 were built, 12 of those were sent straight to the track for racing. Of the remaining 33, most were sent to workshops for modification, and most of those ended up back on the track too. The Mines R34 GTR was an N1, for example. TRIAL Osaka also had one for a while.

VSpec II N1s were built in small batches to-order, usually in groups of 3 or five, and were more expensive than all GTRs until the Nurs arrived. A Japanese encyclopedia on R34s puts the total number at 18, which I'm presuming they arrived at by trawling FAST.

    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
