Hi guys and gals :domokun:

What we have here;

2001 Nissan Skyline R34 GTR V-spec II N1

One of only two genuine “lightweight” N1 R34’s in Australia, and 45 ever manufactured. This very successful and well-known vehicle won Targa Tasmania outright in 2005 in the hands of Jason and John White. The vehicle is extremely reliable and very competitive, featuring many new upgrades by Melbourne Performance Centre since purchased in 2007. Built and maintained with a “no expense spared” outlook, the vehicle features all the factory N1 racing upgrades, including deleted air con, engine oil cooler & lightweight glass. Some major features are listed here (plenty of other things that i can explain on the phone);

1. Custom built Chrome Molly FIA cage

2. Proflex suspension (recently rebuilt and new rear springs)

3. AP V8 Supercar full-floating rotors

4. Custom made (!!!) billet aluminium brake callipers (8 spot FR, 6 spot Rr)

5. Cobra race seats

6. Motec M800 ECU (data logging)

7. Stilo comms system

8. 8 road wheels

9. Quick release steering wheel

10. Terra-Trip 303+

11. All "N1" features such as engine oil cooler, steel wheel turbos, stronger engine block and oil pump etc...

12. New harness belts March 2008.

13. The car is currently producing in the region of 358 kw at all four wheels on Elf fuel @ 1.5 bar.

This vehicle is wonderfully sorted, fantastic AND exciting to drive, and is still capable of winning any tarmac rally outright. The vehicle is also very suitable for and is fast on the circuit.

As expected, there is a few marks on the vehicle due to the nature of tarmac rallying and it's associated stone chipping, but any marks are indeed minor.

I'm listing this on behalf of the owner, and the asking price is $95,000-

Cheers!

Ok guys, the owner is willing to talk the sphincter of the universe on price! That doesn't mean talk like a the sphincter of the universe, or be a the sphincter of the universe and offer $1-, but talk the sphincter of the universe! This is a GENUINE N1, not a mock up. Only 45 of these built and most have now gone to the big GTR heaven inda sky.

Trust me, anyone serious about entering tarmac rallying or even circuit racing would be MAD not to look at this car! Six days I drove it for TT this year and she didn't raise even a sweat. That either means the car is really good or I'm really soft.

Good to hear shes staying in Aus, what a car. Of those 45 built, the greater majority of them were used by Nismo for Super Taikyu Racing in Japan, so theres easily <20 registered N1's in the world! Way too cheap IMO

I agree it WAS too cheap, but it's very much a buyer's market at the moment!

And yeh, I have no doubt she'll be strait back into the tarmac rallying scene very soon! :O Someone else will get to enjoy it for a while now!

    • Hey @Butters, did you end up getting this clutch in ? I have just ordered to a uniclutch track to go in my getrag 6 speed that’s in my BNR 32     
    • I know you don't want to hear this comment, but I can't not say it.  I just can't see 200kw being worth the time and effort. Its like guys with NA cars, putting in headers/exhaust/tune for a massive 20% jump in power. Great, the slow car is still slow and you're down $10,000.  My vote is leave it NA or price in a gearbox upgrade and shoot for at least 300KW, preferably 350KW+.  Now you have a NC that will try to kill you from time to time and will be exciting to drive
    • Ah yep. The main message I want to pass on is, try not to get scared of ghosts when thinking about knock/knock detection.  What I mean is, healthy engines make noise. Knock is also noise. Your knock sensor and ECU combo are trying to determine bad noise from good noise based on how loud the noise is. The factory knock sensors and ECU are not good at doing this.  Modern ECU's are pretty decent at it, however I'd still say that you would want to verify that if your ECU says it's knock, that you actually listen to it and confirm that it is correct.  Are you familiar with the plex knock monitor?  https://www.plex-tuning.com/products/plex-knock-monitor-v3/ I expect you're the type of person that would be very keen to play with something like this. It is great knock detection and you can pop some headphones on and listen to what's going on.  Knock that you've deliberately induced in low load low RPM areas is not really putting anything at risk and is a great tuning/learning/verification tool.  I just thought this was worth mentioning based on the way you were talking about setting up a base map and the Haltech base map settings. There are better ways to spend your time then chasing ghosts and worrying about detonation in scenarios that it is crazy unlikely to encounter it.  I was also wondering, what ECU are you planning to get? Will it be long til you pick it up?
    • This came quicker than I thought. It ain't even 2025 yet.
    • I somehow quoted my post instead of editing it. I regret nothing.
