R32 Gt-R V-Spec & V-Spec Ii Register (Inc N1 V-Spec & V-Spec Ii Models)

[GTR-N1]

And then sell the 3 as a package Brett at Shannon's Auctions? Even if the set were someone else's I'd love to witness that auction! Worthwhile marketing to Messrs Joel, Leno, Fox and Ashwood ay?

I must be dreamin' lol

[Marko R1]

Shoosh!

My aim is to enjoy driving them albeit not too far.

Then when my wife and I do a dream holiday to South America I will probably sell an N1. We spent heaps of $$ already to see Europe 8 yrs ago. I love these cars, but they're not an obsession.

These cars need to be driven and not cosseted. My 2c.

Totally agree, enjoy it and drive it hard (not thrashing)...no point preserving it for the next owner

Nice wheels Terry

Awesome stuff.

Ok Guys, but in particular a question for Terry.........

It's well documented that there were 228 N1's built and 1303 V-Spec 2's built.

Terry's car is a N1 V-Spec 2........

So, does that mean it's one of the 228 built but it's not added to the V-Spec 2 totals?

If so, there were slightly more V-Specs and V-Spec 2's built than the totals suggest.

Does anyone know what the model breakdown of the 228 cars are?

In other words, Std N1's, N1 V-Specs and N1 V-Spec 2's?

Cheers,

Bob.

Great question. My assumption is that the N1s were not considered as v specs. They were the base cars that the N1s were built off. In the same way that v specs are built off stock gtrs. Would be nice to get a comprehensive answer though.

Terry,

My suggestion would be to email Nissan Japan, advise them of your recent purchase and ask them if they could confirm how many N1 V-Spec 2's were built. If they answer that question, I would then go back to them and ask how many V-Specs were built.

Their appropriate email address is - [email protected]

If you get that answer just deduct those two totals off the 228 figure and we have the mystery solved.

My experiences with this kind of thing is if you ask too many questions in one go they get uncomfortable and avoid the answer.

If you take it one step at a time your more likely to get a result.

Cheers,

Bob.

Thank you Bob (and earlier on, Lucas).

I shall go ahead and do this. Since my wife can read and write kanji do you think I may procure a better result first up via that route? Thoughts - or have you found them helpful before in English?

Hi Terry,

I've never had a need to contact them but the boys on the Canadian forum speak very highly of their customer service in English.

That said, given your fortunate circumstances, I would ask in Japanese.

Make sure you include photos of both cars and tell them how you love their products etc etc......

The more complimentary you are towards them, the more likely they are to help you.

Cheers...... Bob.

This has always been my understanding too.

Thanks. Perhaps I should also offer the boss a free game of golf? DekA on the Exec is organising a SAU golf event

Definitely buy and R33 Ni now.... and then sell them all to me when I win the lottery

[mjtown]

Terry, just send an English email to that [email protected] email address. You'll likely get a response from Chikako Taguchi. He tends to be the person that responds. Check the pdf letter attached to my first post here:

Thanks for the lead on how to address my email

No problem!

[jaysevu]

anybody see the immaculate grade 5A 94 vpecII going through the auctions today? Had something like 30,000km's all standard! was going to put a bid in but was told that it would probably reach the 40's which is over my budget.

[GTR-N1]

Did it sell or was it passed in?

If it was passed in, the seller usually drops his "reserve" the next time.

[RS4StagMan]

On the white grade 5A Vspec II, 31,000km, nice car indeed, sold for 3600000 yen car cost, with some shaken left, you would have needed around $50,000 landed and complied + registration costs.

[R32N1]

That car was amazing!
