Been looking at a 34 GTR and i was told it was a Vspec, but the badging is not there, are there any sure ways to tell by looking at it? It is also a chameleon purple and i am told this is a limited colour, is this true or are they just trying to make it sound good?

Just get the number BNR34-###### off the build plate and post it in the thread called "VINS you want fasted". I have a 34 GTR Midnight Purple 2. The paint code is LV4. V-specs typically have an additional front lip under the front bar (like a black plastic sheet that goes to about half way of the engine. Also, on the rear, there is a carbon fibre sheet under the bumber that goes to just beyond the rear wheels. Good luck :D

best way is to put the chasis number through the nissan fast software a couple members on this forum have access to it and can do it for you . The other ways are the front plastic diffuser and rear carbon diffuser which did not come on the non v-spec models but can be fitted to non v-spec cars by their owners to look like v-spec's very common with the front diffuser but not the rear one because of the cost .

other ways are the speedo the numbers 1 to 3 on the tacho will be compressed with the spaceing where as the non v-spec will be normal spaceing but the speedos are very easly replaced so still be wary, other way is the rear diff caseing will be finned while the non v-spec's will be smooth same as the 33 GTR's the 32 GTR's are opposite every normal 32 GTR will have a finned rear diff caseing where the v-spec models will be smooth.

another way but iam not 100% sure the main function display on the dash on v-spec's has 7 parameters and with the non v-spec models i think only has 5 parameters maybe one of the non v-spec owners could confirm this

    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
    • Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
