Might want to be a bit more specific and maybe have some pics. Bottom line though, unless its close to completely stock, in original condition, with low k's and paperwork to back it up, you'd struggle getting any kind of a premium over a normal 32 GTR.

Where abouts on the block would it be? Yeah I had a guy a on here fast it for me. Vin numbers BNR32-100352

Its on the turbo side, somewhere near the front turbo. Take the under tray off and look from under the car. It will say 24U if it has an N1 block and 05U if it has a regular RB26. You'll see 05U on the head so do be confused by that.

If you look at the underside of the block forward of the front turbo, and it has "24U" embossed on it like Adam stated, it's an N1 block. Does it have this?

What does your paperwork say? Pics will be good. What tells you that your car is a "Nismo Edition"?

If Nismo had ownership of this car in Japan, they may have simply utilised a V-Spec N1 > and now you're checking this out.

Can you put up pics?

Do the Nismo editions have an N1 block?

Has anyone ever found a part number for an N1 block in the R32 GT-R fast system? My local dealer cant find it, said it began with the R33 series? However, there were specific parts for the turbo charger, oil and water pumps ect listed.

No matter what the car is a genuine Nismo with that chassis number, car number 352 to be exact!

I'm gunna jack it up this arvo and have a good look. And tomorrow I will upload photos :). Yeah she's definately a Nismo, I had someone on here fast it and a mate of mine who knows a shitload about GTR's checked it up for me too.

Nismo edition's Vin numbers start from Bnr32100000 - 1000560. I'm also pretty sure they came with a standard block, well mine did anyway.

I was thinking the same thing about 05U Block and the turbo's are Nismo items.

although it might be a nismo, it's been resprayed and unfortunately that defeats the purpose of owning one of these and may reduce the price significantly

They only ever came out in gunmetal grey, other than the body kit, the only other obvious tell-tale sign is the white vinyl sticker on the rear and the vin number,

it should also be missing a rear wiper blade assembly, abs should also be missing and in some cases, on the dash controls, the radio button should be missing too

Can anyone tell me what an R32 GTR Nismo Edition would be worth? Im looking to sell mine and when I bought it the bloke didn't know what he had so I was just looking at what they're really worth.

From my own extensive research over the years, the Nismo edition is worth slightly more than a standard R32 GTR but less than a Vspec 1 or 2, for a comparative condition car. That puts you roughly in the broad 10K-20K range, however it is only worth what somebody is prepared to pay for it- Originality is the key.

The Nismo spec version is not very highly regarded by collectors in Japan either, even though built in limited numbers, much less than Vspec 1 or 2's build numbers.

I wonder why that is? I always thought that it would be the other way around.

Hi mate I'm also thinking of selling my r32 gtr nismo edition bnr32100108, mine has had a full overhaul, and respray, personally I couldn't let mine go anything less than $30000 Shannon's valued at this and that's what it's insured for

You'd be flat pressed getting 30 grand for an R32 GTR that isn't mint (and I mean like brand new mint) or very cleanly highly modified.

I tried telling him that in his for sale thread.

And the fact its been resprayed = instantly devalued.

Could be a factory respray, which is really the same.

No, because even when using the factory colour, its easy to tell when a car has been respray. Use a paint thickness micrometer and it wont be the same consistency and thickness as the factory paintjob.

A car to command a premium must have the original paint/panels. People want a car that has a body that is as close to possible to when it rolled off the factory line.

    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
