how to identify 32 gtr vspec n1

[7heavn]

Thinking about purchasing what I've been lead to believe is a vspec n1 the car has all the features of one but is there any special numbers on the ID tag to identify one from a normal r32 gtr?.

there is no n1 in the r32 range. only the r34

getting somebody to punch the VIN into FAST should clear that up pretty quickly..

r32s had series of n1s from 92 onwards, the best of them is the 94 n1 with 245 wheels.

My car's CAMS logbook says its a 94 N1 but its not the real thing so I can't really help with how to tell it's real. Does it have a factory oil cooler?

r33s also had n1 models

my bad. i thought the skylines only achieved the n1 (nur) badge after they broke the record at the nuremburg (sp.?) curciut in 1998 or so?

yeah I guess Rezz could clarify that, the Nur was an r34 special model, but its not the same as an N1. The N1s were built specifically to homologate bits for racing and there is plenty of "discussion" about their exact spec....for example the Whites (2nd in Targa) this year got disqualified for running bits not on the real n1s.....

The car has everything that makes it look like it actually is an N1 but would just like to be 100%. Someone mentioned putting the VIN number into FAST?, what exactly is that I've neevr heard of it before.

FAST is the nissan dealership software with a database of every Nissan made from 1979 on. If you can get the VIN number from the blue plate in the engine bay and post it we would be able to find out all sorts of info about the car from FAST.

Many of us here have the FAST software now since copies have been floating around lately.

Where would one get a copy of this nissan FAST software?

As for the R32 gtr n1 -

They different turbos on them ( metal wheels ), they had no air conditioning, no radio/cassete player, no abs. I think the headlights were different aswell.

They have an oil cooler as standard. Air guide equipment for brakes. They had a didfferent water and oil pump.

To find out if the block is really a genuine N1 block there should be 24U on the left hand side of the block, somewhere close to the left hand side engine mount.

This page is about the letters on the plate in the engine bay.
