i would just like to ask you a couple of questions regarding the r32 vspecs. first of all, does anyone know of any good website links that are related to r32 gtrs and vspecs?? i was wondering, what the differences were between the vspec I and vspec II. if you download the video from this site,

http://www.gtrcentral.com/movies/data/gtr/...od_shootout.mpg

you will see that the vspec II leaves them for dead. in the

drag race at the beginning of the video, you will notice that the

vspec 2 on the left side of the screen starts late and crosses the finish line long before normal gtr and vspec I (a few thousandths of a second between the gtr and vspec I). i know that one difference of the vspec I and II is the size of the rims and tyres. the vspec 2 having wider tyres and rims. however, I dont see how this could make the vspec II that much faster. of all things, it should make the car slower! i have asked many ppl the same question, they all say the only difference is the wheel and tyre package. is this true? after watching that video, i am lead to believe there has got to be greater differences in the two.

Both V-Spec and V-Spec 2 models have firmer suspension an an electronically controlled limited-slip differential plus a revised AWD system called ATTESA-ETS Pro. Both models also have larger brakes than the normal 32 GTRs, 4piston Brembo clampers with 324mm rotors at the front and 2piston ones with 300mm discs at the rear. The V-Specs also have mesh style 17x8-inch BBS rims. The only difference between the two V-Spec models are the tyre sizes as you mentoned. The 1st version got 225/50/ZR17 tyres while the V-Spec 2 has wider 245/45/ZR17's. There were no inherent differences to the RB26 engine in either models to a conventional GTR. Stock for stock, neither model should outrun the other without some modification taking place, and of course, the drivers skill and ability.
