Skyline R32 Vspec ?


Recommended Posts

I have just recently brought a 32 GTR, off a mate who had it for 5years, (has been in storage most of the time since he bought it), so am writing this quick post to see if im on the right track or if anyone can help me in my cause to find a bit out about it !

The car has always been a bit of an unknown, it runs N1 Block, Hks 272 stg2 cams, Hks spec head, 2860-7turbos, nismo 100mm cooler, greddy intercooler piping, hks oil cooler, brembo brakes, trust gracer side skirts and rear pods, recaro seats, N1 fiberglas bonnet and plenty of other suff, and the old girl makes 515hp at all 4's on 20psi. (Can supply dyno sheets in a couple of weeks when i get back home for the haters)

I always thought that it was just a standard Gtr that someone had played with, from the motor and all the custom bits on it, even the paint was custom (use to be metal flake white with pearl), but i went into my nissan dealer the other day to buy some parts and put the vin into the fast system, and it turned out to be a 7/93 V-Spec (Nissan dealer saying V-Spec II), so i was pretty happy with that, just makes it a bit more special. So after trolling around plenty of sites in the last couple of days, I have found that the motor is out of a N1 somewhere after the 3rd Feb 1997 due to the engine number having the first 5 numbers being RB26068XXX on the outside of the engine block it has got in the casting 24U so i know its legit. I got this info from this page ( http://www.webbersrb...isters&Itemid=2 )

After my local Nissan dealer printed me off a copy of the "fast" they did, I have also downloaded the latest fast system for windows, and have put in the Vin aswell which comes up with Model:KBNR32RBFSAA, Series:R32, PROD: 07/93, Colour: KH2 (Grey) Body: 2K (2 Door ??), Engine: RB26DETT, Drive: HI.4WD (Hicas 4WD), Grade: GTR.17 (Vspec),

This is what i have made from my Fast, Now the guy at the Nissan dealership is trying to tell me that my car is a V-Spec II but from my research mine is only a V-Spec, as V-Spec II's didnt come out untill 94, So i dont know, as it is such a bitsa,

I have also read that an air bag was an option on the V-Spec now, mine doesnt have an air bag in the steering wheel it just has the stock R32 Gtr wheel on it, but it has all the warning decals on the sun visor and a sticker in the glovebox saying its meant to have one in the wheel, (Has the air bag been removed ??)

I have seen some people on SAU, who use the fast program can bring up the factory options that have been taken from factory, if anyone can help me work out the fast so i can do the same would be great, is there anyway to trace the car back into japan ?..

And YES i know the wheels look gay and it has no side skirts lol

Thanks for reading

IIs were April 94 onwards only (as you have said) so yours would have to be a I. N1 bonnets were still alloy, not fiberglass. Mine still has all the warning labels as well, pretty sure they just put the warnings in no matter what.

P.S. You really need to change the colour..

I think mine has that airbag warning thing too so like you said they all had that warning label.

Sounds like you have got yourself a nice model though with it being a V-Spec and an N1 block and its putting out good power.

As you have pointed out it is crying out for some nice wheels and I agree with iplen about the colour. From the pictures it looks like the bonnet is white? I would respray it white or silver but not necessarily the original white or silver from Nissan but something similar from a more modern car to make it look a bit more modern.

I should ask what are your plans for the car?

Thanks bud, yea it makes good power, ^^^^ As for the hater i have only been told -7 turbos, but i have seen the old dyno sheet from its last tune years ago for 515hp. So thats all that really matters doesent it...

Yea i was stoked when i found out it was v-spec, just need to find some gay BBS v-spec rims for when i sell it lol. Yea the bonnet is white and the boot is black if you look closey, i have only owned the car for 8 weeks now and i work away on a LNG project so have only been home for 1 week, so havent had much time to do anything yet but wash it. I got some plans for it get the bonnet and boot painted the same colour as the car, get the front bar fixed up and find some Trust GRacer side skirts, as thats what use to be on there, and is running the Trust rear pods. Also put the blue mirrors back on and get rid og those granador carbon fibre ones. The car use to be a mica white colour with a very slight pearl, i must admit that i did prefer the white colour, but hey its got 500hp and for the price i paid im never going to whinge, the colour now is the mazda 6 blue with pearl, it does look better in real life, would prob look a bit better if i didnt have such a sh*tty camera. As for wheels i'm looking at getting some R35 Gtr rims for it, have seen one 32gtr with them on already and they fill the guards out so well. If i can find a set i will run with some r34 rims or TE37's, engine wise just a trust dog box, that prob about it for now i want to use it on the track when im home, so the setup its got now is pretty good

Im trying to put a pic of when it was whit but its not letting me

Still would like to take you up on that offer.

400kw out of -7's is crazy. Hence i would like to witness this phenomenon

That's sweet mate I'll put it up in a couple of weeks after its retune, and then you will be able to go and annoy someone else on their thread. How does that sound ?

I like the colour.

There's always going to be haters lol, i don't know a lot about FI but that is some impressive power would be interesting to see what you'd run down a 1/4 mile.

Oh and VOLK TE 37's would look the sex!

Great find bro.

Yep lol, usually jealousy. Sweeet, i know a guy that has a R32 GTR as a drag car and hits 9.4 down the 1/4 mile and it's mental.. would be good to see what you can pull.

Yeah good man, i'm on my greens so it's NA. Runs 14.2 1/4 mile with CAI and no other engine mods aha so it's a good p plater car i will pretty much beat any other p plate legal car apart from a SV6 commy one beat me by .6 of a second on the strip..

my -7's, 350kws (469hp) no more puff - all gonski's.

Expect my Dyno Dynamics lied a little too.

RB26 Forgie with Tomie Poncams

Suggest your Turbo's are something larger. But it doesn't matter.

Good figures

Cheers sinista, as I said earlier I don't really know exactly what size I'm only going off what I have been told for the turbo size, all I can see is there is garrett on the housing and Hks actuators and what looks like a Hks plaque. I guess I'll find out out when I pull them off one day. What psi did your turbos push before they ran out of puff ?

Well at the moment i'm doing a lot of interior and external mods, i do have a Kinetix V+ Intake manifold sitting in my garage that i can't install for insurance purposes.. that will increase high end power and i'm really keen to strap it on but i have t change insurers first.

I have new rims in transit, have plans for exhaust and changing to an emblemless grille and cf wrapped mirrors you know just little exterior shit. Also doing double din sound conversion in the next few months. I'm pretty happy with the power, to be honest i think once i'm on my opens i'll sell it and by then i'll have enough money for a R34 GTR. Always loved them and would be so happy owning one!

326kws at 18psi

350kws at 21psi

I wonder if yours are HKS 2530's ? Good for 400kws+
