Hi Guys,

I am trying to find out whether early or most R32 GT-R's did or did not have a mould than ran along the top of the screen.

If you look at my attached pics you will clearly see that there is no top horizontal mould however there is 2 vertical ones on either side.

My JDM is a 1990 model but it does have the original Nissan screen with the radio antenna built in.

It certainly looks as though it should have it but I was told by a reliable source that earlier cars don't have them. I am trying to work out what year model had them introduced.

I also have a ADM R32 GT-R (1991) and that one does have the mould......

I just check my 1989 and 1990 original brochure/catalogues and you can clearly see they doesn't have them so I know my car is correct in that sense.

I looked at a late 1992/3 catalogue and it doesn't show it as clearly but it looks as though they are there.

It may have been another series 2 upgrade that also came with the ADM cars as they had different screens however were built before the JDM series 2's.

If you own a R32 please reply with a yes or a no to the mould and the year model of your car.

Thanks guys,

Bob.

Thanks guys, I appreciate the feedback.

Looks as though I can answer my own question.

After posting the original question, I went and had a look at a 1/1994 GT-R..... Obviously one of the last of the series. Pics attached.

It also did not have the horizontal mould.

I am now quietly confident that this feature was reserved only for the ADM's. ADR's at the time required a clear screen, meaning the antenna fitted in the JDM's screen was not compatible until a few years later when the rules changed. ADM's also got the green tinted top band which the JDM's did not

Appreciate your help.......

Cheers,

Bob.

    • Thanks both. All good advice. Reminds me of drilling through stone wall for drainage pipe 😬 I'll let you know how I get on if I still have use of my hands afterwards 😅
    • Finally got shipping number for the intake and throttle body, shipped by UPS, so "should" be in my hands sometime next week, fingers fracking crossed
    • I'm so far behind in the jobs I have to do at both work and home (including car) that I have become immortal. There's simply no way that I can die now.
    • Each to their own I guess  Me, I put just as much time into cleaning inside of the cars as I do on the outside As for getting wet, it is really no different than steam cleaning the carpets at home, apart from the cars carpet dries alot faster than the house, again, I only do it in the hotter months and leave the car opened up for a few hours As I only do it yearly, it is just before I do the diff and gearbox service, so I clean the carpets, then it's up on stands, wheels off, service, clean the undercarriage,  grease the bushings and do a nut and bolt check on everything  Disclaimer: I typically had all the time in the world to kill when I was working 🤣, so spending a full day or 2 cleaning, serving and "looking at stuff" was,  easily achievable, and a fun mental therapy day As for time to kill, I retired last Wednesday, so apart from my physical training, my days are filled with lots of random jobs around the house and garden...."Idle hands are the Devils something something" I am also buying a new house sooner rather than later, I'm actually looking at a potential property tomorrow, I'm looking forward to getting a car hoist as I'm starting to get to old to crawl around under a car, I can only imagine all the undercarriage cleaning and looking at stuff when that gets set up
    • Yeah, I'm not interested in wetting the carpets, and I don't care about brown dirt/dust that lives deep in the pile or underneath. It's not like I crawl around on them in my birthday suit or eat dropped food off them (because there is never any open food in my car). The seats are alcantara (cheap Chinese imitation alcantara, to be sure!) with barely 1" of foam pad behind the surface. That's not getting wet either. Any car that I would be happy to get the interior wet, I would not care to put the effort into.
