I have just become the proud owner of a black 1991 Australian delivered R32 Nissan GTR (1 of 100). I was just wondering if anyone knows of the differences between the Australian Delivered GTR and the imported GTR? Any information would be greatly appreciated.

The search button is your friend.

Basically you get a small roof mounted aerial, an oil cooler for the ATTESSA system & the speed limiter effectively is removed. From memory that is about it.

I heard that the Aussie GTR had more KW's standard and had a bigger intercooler. Any truth to these rumors??

Thanks for the replies.

they have one of the stop lights converted to work as an indicator, both of the indicators are then used as reverse lights, and the reverse lights are removed and replaced with a little panel. on top of the things mentioned above.

Thanks alot for your help, greatly appreciated.

When these GTRs were released, were they okay to run with the Premium petrol (i.e non 98RON) that was available at the time?

The tart number of the ECU in the Oz spec GTR's is unique so it's probable the tuning was specific to our conditions, inc fuel.

From what I understand the ECU was changed to reset the speed limiter from 180km/h to was unacheivable number. Other than that it was the same unit.

    • 12+ months passed so they have no obligation to do a warranty claim. It leaked from the rear circuit. Front circuit was fine, but I tried many times to bench-bleed and in-car bleed (wasted 1L of Penrite racing brake fluid) to no avail. Threw my old BM50 or whatever the standard R32 GT-R BMC is, brakes went back to normal. So from my very limited anecdotal experience, I cannot recommend HFM, even though a lot of their products looks good. Just my experience (I have a genuine Nissan BM57 in a box waiting to be installed now).
    • How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.
    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/
