Hi guys,

A few people have asked me for some info i have on 32 GTRs. I have a japanese GTR book at home which has a lot of specific info on 32 GTRs. Like which chassis numbers correspond to which model. Which colours were available over which model, and of course the spec level. Unfortunately the text is in japanese, but it is still quite usefull.

Here's the first one:

Vspec II

Scanning the pages is not so good for the book, but i did get N1, Vspec, and nismo too, i'll post them up a bit later on if anyone wants to see them.

this should be very helpfull to anyone trying to determine the pedigree of a GTR. I'm not keen to do many more scans as it's not good for the book, but i'll post up the standard GTR pages tomorrow. It has both the early models, and late models listed seperately.

and cowie, it's probably just aftermarket tweeters. some of the cars they used as examples had a few little add-ons. like the volk rims, etc etc. but all the info is there :D

from what i've been able to learn about the nismo models is there were pretty much like a dealer special we have here. they had no abs, no rear wiper, had the full body kit (bonnet lip, side skirts, rear boot lip), nismo spot lights. but they had standard brakes, standard clutch, standard sus (i think). I'm not positive on whether or not they had different turbos, but if they did i would say they would be pretty close to standard, just with steel wheels. also as with most of these 'special' models you could ask for options when you bought it so you could see nismo gtrs with rear wiper etc, possibly even with ABS which confuses things a little. the best way is to just go off the chassis number.

sorry i've been to busy to get the new scans up. I'm not sure which one i got these articles out of. I have a few at home. one is the history of nismo 50th aniversary book, another is just called 32 GTR i think. actually i think they came out of the second one as the nismo book is mostly about race cars, racing history etc.

      This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though.

      Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno

      Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
