im in the market for a late model r32 GTR.

what i want to know is are there any OTHER differences rather than just brakes and wheels that they were released with.

are there any identifiers on the id plate to say its a vspec, like wats to stop some1 putting a set of brembos on and saying its a vspec... maybe any codes or somethin, i dont know..

hope that clarifies wat i wanna know and am asking.

thanks

Im pretty sure if run the VIN thru Nissan FAST it would tell you if it is a VSpec... but there is always the possibility VIN plates had been swapped, tho unlikely.

exactly...get the VIN# and post it up in that thread we can check it out. the rest can be swapped pretty easily.

BTW, unless you are a collector that wants to keep it stock, don't bother paying more for a 32 vspec - you could upgrade brakes and tyres yourself for less than the additional cost - and the vspec brakes arent really a big step up anyway.

ye thats wat i wanted to kno thanks! im gonna change it all anyway, brakes, wheels etc jus wanted to see if there was anything special about them haha or was it just the brakes and tyres....

ive found a 93 vspec with 34 gtr wheels and 2560 turbos std suspension for 22k or a 11/1994 for 20k immaculate as they come with 33 gtr wheels and tein coil overs, im tossing up between the 2, the 94 is absolutely clean as but the vspec i think needs some new uni joints or somethin, feels a bit funny as i shifted gears, like a jolt... but other than that it is very clean also... dont kno which one to get!

ill be stripping it down, flaring the guards, painting it, and swapping my running gear and interior as i dont want my car off the road any longer hence looking for a late model immaculate base.

    • Don't turn down the limit yet. Put a mechanical pressure gauge on the car in the same spot and go and prove it.
    • I've done a few BMS systems. Code in Canada use to force us to have any safety components outside of the PLC but with a code change back in 2018 I believe it was, we can now use safety PLC's to control everything. Sadly to your point, AB Guardlogix safety instructions for example are only available in ladder.  Machine safety is a very big thing here though, you're constantly forced to migrate to the next best thing by OSHA. I honestly prefer safety plc's, including anything from AB more then I do working with old school safety monitoring relays. PLC is only one portion of it, the rest of the electrical still has to follow to meet SIL (Mechanically linked dual contacts, bla bla)  Now tell me how to feel about safety over comm's (e.g Ethernet/IP CIP) on a unmaintained network haha
    • To your point, boolean logic. We're not only working with bools in ecu's, so it's very limiting. I wanted to setup a low WMI pressure alarm. After 1 second I want WMI line to hit 100PSI, 2 seconds 175PSI, etc. and trigger an alarm if it doesn't meet those thresholds. This would of taken me one very short line of text, but instead I had to bugger around with generic timers, conditions, etc. and so forth.
    • I much prefer that to an actual oil pressure issue, never would of thought it would of been a volt drop issue but SAU brains win again. Guess ill be turning down the oil pressure limit for the track and hunting some grounds. Ill hopefully update this thread with some high oil pressure and solid ecu voltage logs. 
    • You've just discovered a really good reason to tell yourself, yes, I do need to buy an aftermarket ECU. Put the MAF in the bin. Slap in the new ECU and have a think about what turbo sounds you prefer.  Do you want a 90's style BOV wooosh? Do you want a hektik tsututututu?  Mate, can't go wrong. Just gotta get that ECU and the world is your oyster.
