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

    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋 
    • Does that German restaurant still exist in the old place out the NW end of Goulburn? When I say "out the NW end of"...I am really being vague. It was 1997 when I was last there, and the only point of reference I can recall is that it was on the opposite side of the main drag from the big merino. And when I say "opposite side of the main drag", I don't mean "on the main drag". It was either a couple of streets back from there, or might have even been out in the sticks a bit further. Was an old farm building or mill or somesuch. And when I say "the big merino" I might actually be thinking of a completely different part of town, because I just looked on maps and the big bugger is not where I remembered him to be! The food was good, consisting largely of various German mystery-meat sausage/loaf things and kartofflen.
    • So while the second sentence is completely correct and the whole point of the conversation, the first sentence bears consideration. If this bloke is just hoping to throw big turbos on and drive it around, because there are no helpful facilities at all in his tropical paradise** then he likely has zero chance of even knowing what the TP is on the last column in the stock maps, let alone know whether the ECU is operating anywhere near it or past it. So the point is very very moot. And, per what I said before, at stock boost on those turbos, you may well be off the end of the map. **I'm just back from Vanuatu, so I know exactly what small Pacific nations can be like wrt paradise without requisite facilities. But it's not even that simple. I put a high flow on my car and had to drive it around without a proper tune because of the lack of opportunity*** to put the bigger AFM and injectors into it to allow it to be tuned. I had to turn the boost down to less than I had before, and back off the boost controller's ramp, because it was exploring parts of the map that it didn't drive in before, and really couldn't access for tuning on the dyno either, and so was pinging. It was still well within the last column, because when I first**** set up the Nistune on the Neo I rescaled all axes of the maps to give some more space to explore. ***Family dyno was broken ****This was 13 years ago, and the TIM thing wasn't a thing then and so TP would definitely grow when pushing past the stock tune's limits.
