Hey mate, I'm not being a smarty right now but even n1 parts have part numbers. Cut your losses and accept that they *may* not be genuine. What does it matter anyway?

Ignore the smart arses.:)

Google: N1 Altia Wheels. Looks like Altia is a brand that may have disappeared now, the N1 was a split 5-spoke model available in many sizes but I've only seen down to 17s.

I think what you have is a set of centre caps that don't relate to the wheel they're fitted to, it's a common situation, especially with replica wheels - BBS caps on any number of mesh-style wheels is probably the most common.

Either way, I don't think you have a unique set of R32 GTR N1 wheels, but you do have one hell of an ability to defend your position.

On further Googling I've found an Altia Falken GTR that won the 1992 N1 racing series, driven by Shinichi Katsura and Takahiko Hara. Check out the book "Nissan GT-R Supercar: Born to Race", mentions it on page 45.

For one, all Nissan parts are cataloged and have part numbers. Not having a part number makes zero sense in manufacturing.

R32 N1 GTRs were based off the Vspec or Vspec II which have the 17" BBS wheels. They also have the "produced with spartan air" and skyline 'S' center logo.

Yours seem to be a copy of the r32 gtr wheels made by ALTIA.

Not even a copy, looks like the standard R32 GT-R wheel with a centre cap that fits.

f**k, this shit again, really?

ok let me ask you this...did all the r32 gtr's from 89-94 and the v-specs from 94-96 have the engravings around the center caps? did any of them have holes drilled around the center caps? Im just saying...if these are not n1 gtr wheels then ive got the rare special edition Altia Falken GTR wheels that were only produced for the Falken GTR team. Ultra Rare bro.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
