As we know the R32 N1s did not come fitted with a stereo. (It may have been an option?)

Can anyone with a N1 confirm if the wiring for a head unit or speaker is present in the factory loom or not?

most of the boyz here that have a genuine N1 actually have the radio optioned in. So, I doubt you will find your answer here.

I think there is a fellow on the GTR Canada forum that has one without the radio, but not sure if hes on there anymore.

Working in the automotive industry - I can say that wiring looms are complex items and it is often easier to have one loom with empty connectors then different looms for different grades of the same car.......

I for one would be surprised if they made a different wiring loom for the N1 - considering that at the point in the line where the cars are modified (no rear windscreen wiper, A/C etc.) the loom would already be in the car. Also it would be virtually impossible to provide a different loom for those N1's were no radio was optioned (comparedf to N1's with radio optioned in).

I'd be 99.99% certain the connectors exist.

This is true. Other than a few extra loops of tape to secure the extra wiring, a few clips and blank receptacles for the connectors to seat into, the loom is identical.

Here is a pic of the wiring in my N1 that i took on the weekend. SO it looks like at least my N1 has factory stereo wiring. I cannot confirm or deny if my car came with a stereo or not, as when i got it, it had an aftermarket head deck in it.

Thanks fellas. Good practical logic going on there.

I think we can conclude that all BNR32 looms are the same irrelevant of model variant. At least from factory anyway.

Hello All,

I'm back after the mishap at SAU trackday..... managed to get my hands on a black R32 GTR V-Spec. I'll post some pics soon once I get the blue slip sorted out. Car has just over 70,000km on the clock.

Is that the QLD car?

If so, it was for sale for ever but looked a great buy.

Could never work out why it didn't sell until now.

Where are you located? We need a V-Spec get together in Sydney!

Bob.

Hey Bob,

yep...its the one from QLD. It took a while to sell as I was getting a few mates to check the car out for me. Wanted to make sure everything was good.

I'm in Peakhurst Heights. We spoke briefly at the 25th Anniversary.

Definitely keen for a V-Spec meet up.

No worries. There was a dark coloured V-Spec or V-Spec II on Carsales in Queensland when I bought mine a couple of years ago. REALLY NICE. The owner had spent a bit replacing worn bits.

Always wondered what happened to it.

was that the 93 VSpecI for about $36K??

I seem to remember one being on there for ages.......

Sorted out the blue slip and rego, washed and polished the car, changed over the rims and installed the lower side skirts. AC belt snapped due to tensioner bearing failing....still drivable though

    • I refreshed the OEM injectors with the kit and connected it up. It now ideals okay even with the IACV removed. Driving still has the same cutoff issue like the 550cc injectors so the issue is somewhere else. I bought FPG's Fuel Pump Hanger. I will be installing it next, but it is not as straightforward as I thought it was with my limited wiring knowledge and no instruction on the specific model I purchased (FPG-089). I also got the incorrect billet clamp as I could not find info on the OEM sizing.
    • Stop looking at the garage floor, and turn the radio up a bit louder if there's any strange noises...
    • No. Turbo shuffle and surge/flutter are not the same thing. Specifically, on a GTR, turbo shuffle has a definite meaning. On a GTR, the twin turbos are assumed to be the same thing and to operate the same way, exactly. In reality, they do not. Their exhaust sides are fed and exhaust a little differently, to each other. Their inlet sides are fed and exhausted a little differently, to each other. Consequently, when they are "working" they are often at slightly different points on the compressor map compared to each other. What this means, particularly when coming on boost, is that one of them will spool up and start producing extra flow compared to the other, which will put back pressure on that other compressor, which will push the operating point on that other compressor up (vertically). This will generally result in it bumping up against the surge line on the map, but even if it doesn't, it upsets the compressor and you get this surging shuffle back and forth between them That is "turbo shuffle" on a GTR. It is related to other flutter effects heard on other turbo systems, but it is a particular feature of the somewhat crappy outlet piping arrangement on RB26s. There are plenty of mods that have been attempted with varying levels of success. People have ground out and/or welded more material into the twin turbo pipe to try to prevent it. Extending the divider inside it works, removing material doesn't. There are aftermarket replacement twin turbo pipes available, and these exist pretty mush purely because of this shuffle problem.
    • You can temporarily* use lock collars to keep it in place until you can do the bushes, back the nuts off, slide them in, snug back up. *temporarily is often for ever
    • Thanks for the quick reply. To be clear, when you say turbo shuffle do you mean turbo flutter "stustustu" or referring to something else? I had thought they were the same thing. When I wrote the post my intention was to say it wasn't a flutter/compression surge sound. My understanding was that a flutter sound would be occurring when throttle is released, whereas I can keep the throttle in the same position for this noise
