Hi all, I am from UK and recently purchased a R32 GTR N1 from Japan and due to be with me in 2 days time. I am very excited as I sold my last 32 GTR 10 years ago and now I am back with a GTR that I love. I will keep updating this thread as I am planning to drive the car and not just a garage ornament! I have bought lot of new OEM parts to refresh the car such as new carpets etc. Herewith few photos in Japan :)

As much as i hate to be thr one to burst your bubble i dont think you will find its an n1. Wrong side skirts and boot lip spoiler is missing. Also has mesh in front bar and no brembos

The chassis number end with a ZN, and this is a non V spec N1 hence no Brembo. Side skirt and boot lip are only option on N1 and those are Nismo version part. Also there are no mesh. Just get the fact right :)

As this car is focused on originality, therefore any parts I put on will be easily removable smile.gif

Today I changed the pedal pads as they are a bit old but not worn out. But they are very cheap so I thought why not

Next is the bumper lower lip spoiler. As the car came with color coded lip and I like the original grey color oem look so I took the old one off and replaced with a new one which i bought last year ....i know i know.......rolleyes.gifrolleyes.gifrolleyes.gif

It was a fairly straight forward swap apart from some very stubborn fasteners on the old lip. However, I am surprised by the condition as all fixing point are still intact and all in good shape. May keep it for spare instead!!

Sorry i dont think is good idea to disclose frame number in pubic, if you are so keen to know you can ask Terry with the V spec 2 N1 and he know my car is real deal :)

If you don't know you can check the VIN on GTR-Registry.com and find out it's build # too :)

    • Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.
    • List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter? 
    • @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...
