It is clearly a nice example however I'm surprised how much the centre console gauge needles are faded. Unless the car lived a lot of its life outdoors hence Sun fade.

I know it's a small detail but it is a tell tale sign of how the car lived it's life, call me crazy but these are things I look at, amongst other wear items like foot pedals etc

Cool discussion guys. Here's my take on things. The V-Spec models were 'order only', you went to the dealer and ordered your car. It has become obvious to me that within that process there was a degr

Hi Guys,

I have a new addition to the register. It's a 1994 Vspec 2, auction grade 4, imported through Ben of J-Spec Imports.

  • Model of car - V-Spec II
  • Build date - need help with that :)
  • 'Chassis No' code - BNR32 - 313373
  • 'Model' code - KBNR32RBFS8 AA
  • Photo of the blue chassis plate (Will have it uploaded soon)
  • Where the car is located - Sydney!

Car is scheduled to arrive Australia in November, so hopefully it'd be on the road soon after that. Can't wait!

A few photos to start with,

Make sure you send me and Terry a PM once it's complied and we can catch up for a coffee.

You don't often see 3 V-Spec 2's side by side.

Any other V-Spec Sydney owners would be most welcome too.

Bob.

Build Date = October, 1994.

Looks clean for its age :)

Thanks. AFAIK it's a pretty standard vspec 2 but I do hope to be surprised and find a Nismo built N1 engine under there. :)

Got the Auction Sheet / Dealer Car Info?

Yes definitely Bob. I'm actually going to pick up a N1 bumper from Terry this weekend. Would be nice to meet a few more Vspec owners eventually.

I've been thinking about putting into storage the original wheels, radio and even steering wheel as soon as car lands. :)

Cheers from one OCT 94 to another.

I took the steering wheel off (replaced by a demountable Momo with a quick release and lock cover - strictly speaking not legal but excellent theft protection) I am also in the process of organising a replacement gear knob and handbrake cover and longer term looking at a replacement drivers seat and/or seat cover.

This will allow me to put most of the original 'wearable' items into storage and will give me the ability to return my car to 'fully stock' if I ever sell (have even kept the little brass boost restrictor which was removed ;-)

I am keeping the wheels on as I like them and have no intention of changing them for other rims but am even considering getting a spare rim as 'insurance' for a nasty scrape or similar......

Anyhow - have fun with it - the waiting is the hardest part ;-)

Cheers

I found excellent+ stock mats (really, really hard to find) and put them in storage... and installed black Nismo ones.

Other than that I'm slowly procuring new mouldings and rubbers for the exterior and I'll have a respray done at some stage - two dogs tried to get in the driver's side window once and scratched crap out of the door and adjoining panels, then I had two 'bumper corner scrapes' in carparks :wacko:

Something interesting that I was discussing with someone yesterday - mine had about 65,000km on it two years ago but hadn't been driven much. It had had all of it's scheduled services, but only very occasionally driven. Now it has 95,000km on the clock and with thorough and diligent maintenance along the way it is driving better now (engine and drivetrain) than it did when I bought it. It actually keeps getting better. Love it.

I don't mind putting km's on - after waiting for 20 years I have no intention of ever selling my 'hero car' and I thoroughly enjoy driving it. It's certainly the coolest car on the school run most days.

Thanks for the ideas Baron. Will have a closer look at the wearable items when the car is here. I hope the original seats under the leather covers are in top condition, in which case, they would go to storage as well. Maybe replace with R34GTR seats or some JDM items?

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.

      Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.

      Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them?

      I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      By Duncan · Posted

      Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
