All R34 GTRs have it except for V-Spec N1 and V-Spec II N1.

May i have bnr32-017857 decoded?

Can't edit my post, i think the number is actually bnr32-047857, not 017857...

Both those numbers had complications.

Post a pic of you build plate and let us have a look.

Well that's the problem, it's not on my plate it's on the engine. I know my chassis is a 1993, i can still post a pic, but supposedly the stealership i bought it from here in Okinawa said it has a newer, but lower mileage engine in it, not the factory one (not sure what happened to it). So newer would mean to me 93+ model year engine. But i have reason to believe it's in fact NOT newer, so I'm a bit curious. I'll see if i can get better look at the numbers, had my wife look at it and she said it looks like the first number I posted, 017857. So i dunno.... :( Edited by Silverstreek

Well after further looking into both the VIN's you posted, they both came up as (July) 07 / 1991 models...

Wouldn't surprise me about the engine swap, it happens in Japan...

Also, do you have the VIN engraved on the firewall?

Yes i do and it matches the blue plate, so that's good. They informed me before and after I bought it, the info about the motor, so i knew it wasn't the original. But, like I said, they said it was "newer" AND "lower mileage". On the paperwork i got with the car it says "used engine ". So, I'm guessing if I tried to take it back and tell them i want my money back and to cram this car, I'd have no ground to stand on. Le sigh....

I see, thanks for that.

How many Km's has your GTR done (Speedo) VS the amount of Km's the "Used Engine" has done..?

Do you know if the timing belt has been changed?

Any stickers..?

Hi can someone please check, bnr32-309201

Thank you.

Kbnr32rxf7s aa

Thanks skyline.

Ok thanks!

The complications came up with a few results, one saying it was a Base Model and the other saying it's a V-Spec II.

But you Model Number confirms it to be a base model R32 GTR, built in March 1994.

Damn, can we go with the vspec II. :)

Thanks mate love you work.

I was checking cause I pulled motor out for rebuild and it has short nose crank so obviously not original motor.

:laugh:

It's just Brembo calipers that make the difference, along with a sticker and BBS Wheels for a V-Spec.

Not original engine or had the RB26 been modified from previous owner?

      Shoota's R33 GT-R RB30/26

      By Shoota_77 · Posted

      They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...

      BCNR33/ECR33 Door corner piece replacement

      By PLYNX · Posted

      Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !

      By Duncan · Posted

      I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
