How to tell real GT-R from fake?

[Horse]

How do you tell a real GT-R from a fake, Besides the GT-R symbol on the dash. I'm looking at having one imported from japan I need reassurance that it's not one modified to look like a GT-R. Is there some defineing interior or exterior or engine detail I can see in photos, or what about serial number? Thanks guys.

how do I find someone who has it?

[KILL HSV]

search "nissan fast", i think funkymonkey has it

Check engine - RB26DETT

Check numbers in engine bay IE - BNR32

Others would be the obvious, check the guards, attessa motor etc

if it has all of the above you can be 99.9999% sure its a gtr as no one would bother doing all that to a gtst

RB26DETT

check to see if the guards are flared

the interior has the GTR Dash which includes a 10K tacho and front torque gauge

the 3 gauges are in the centre console

the GTR seats

transfer case behind the gearbox

the model number BNR32 printed on the ORIGINAL build plate

that's all I can think of atm so if it doesn't have EVERYTHING on that list, question the integrity of it

btw, that's for an R32

The torque split guage is one of the three (3) centre console gauges (on an R32/33), not on the dash gauge (unless it's a GTS-4).

Pretty sure the tacho goes to 11k rpm too

We have a problem telling the difference?...and I thought it was only a Lancer/Evo thing

If you can't tell the difference between the genuine GT-R or Evo, your not a real enthusiast is what I say

Seeing as hes getting it imported its most likely that he wont be able to view the car in person

If you are worried about getting a gtst instead of a gtr then ide be questioning the importing company/auction people
