interested to know which R32 and R33 GTR's have the ducts in the front bumper and which don't, often called N1 slots, located at either side of the number plate? as far as i know, it has nothing to do whether it's a v-spec. maybe it's related to what series it is (1,2,3) etc maybe somebody can confirm.

Only Series 3 R33 GTRs (1997-1998) came with them standard.

If you see any other earlier model GTRs have them, it was either a factory option or fitted aftermarket.

No idea about R32s.

I also have a 1994 R32 V-spec II it dosent have the N1 vents and most of the V-spec and V-spec II i have seen do not have them as far as i know they were only an option or fitted as an aftermarket item only the N1 have it as standard. This is also the same as the lip on the boot lid everyone says it was on all 1994 GTRs as far as i know it was also a option part dont know about the N1 though.

regarding boot lid.... read through these threads.. it was a nismo GTR standard.. but many R32 GTR owners in Japan have added them to their cars.. from all i know it wasn't a vspec standard item.... u never know could have been an option on all R32 GTR's when new.

I purchased a set of the fibreglass vents for my 32 GTR from Unique Autosprts.

Does anybody have any experience in retro-fitting these to an existing bumper?

The guy who was installing them for me struck metal about 40mm behind the plastic bumber. I assume this is the bumper reinforcement bar.

Is it safe to cut through this to fit the vents? (ie. will this weaken the structural integrity of the car?)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
