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 :)

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
