Hey,

Have found a R32 GTR V spec (not a V Spec 2). Can anyone tell me what differences there are between the first version v spec, a normal 32 GTR and the v spec 2???

Does anyone know how to tell if it is a genuine V spec??? i.e Chassis numbers etc???

Any help much appreciated.

Peter.

V Spec's had 17" wheels and Brembo brakes with solid rotors..... that's the biggest give away. If the car you found has these but your not sure about it's legitemacy, check the chassis number with Nissan.

STD R32 GTR's had 16" wheels with Nissan Calipers and Cross Drilled Rotors.

i have nismo/nissan book at home that lists all the chassis numbers for regular 32 GTR, 32 v spec and v spec II. it also shows the colours available, and what spec levels etc. so if you tell me the chassis number i can confirm it.

I beliveve that only the V-spec 2's came with the Brembos, this one does not have them. I dont have the full chassis number but this is the model number that he has placed on the advert. KBNR32RXFSAA. I think some of these letters would refer to paint codes etc. The car is white.

As far as i know all standard R32 GTR's have a finned diff all V-spec and V-spec II have a flat diff cover so the opposite of the R33's. Best way to tell is the model code V-spec II have KBNR32BFS8 AA where a V-spec does not have the 8 on the end and normal GTR's do not have the S or the 8 on the end so yours sounds like a genuine v-spec. all v-spec and v-spec II 's came with brembos from the r33 GTR's the only difference that i can remember is the tyres 225 for the v-spec and 245 for the v-spec II

Cool thanks, Okay so this car is missing the brembo's, The owner tells me that this one is a 92' and brembo equipped versions did not come in until later, is this plausible or just an excuse to hide the fact that somome has removed the Brembos????

yes, it just sounds like a 1992 GTR. Benm, i'll bring the book into work tomorrow and scan some pages or something. or you can read it in person whilst giving me the CD with the last V8 SC round on it :P

Thanks guys, me thinks that this guy is playing games, telling people that it is a v-spec in hope that it will increase his chances of a sale. He has dropped his price $7000. Maybe he has realised that people arent so easily fooled.

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
