I know the N1/Nismo headlights, they don't look like that (all rectangular inside, no round rings). Also, the N1/Nismo R32 GT-R's only came in 1990-1991 (not 1994), and they had no ABS. Looking at the engine bay photo, this car has ABS.

Anyway, just go by the Jap chassis number (find it on that blue plate in the engine bay), not the rego or the new Australian chassis number on the vin/compliance plates affixed to the car after compliance (it would just show whatever year the compliance workshop put on the paper). Good luck with the sale. Nice car by the way.

Is it a genuine '94 model? Why does it have the 1989-1991/early '92 model headlights (with the chrome "rings" inside)?

What's the Jap chassis number? It should start with BNR32-3***** for 1993-1994 models.

Its a 94 model as the rego and vin plates verify this!!

you do relise it was the N1 models that had the non projecter style headlights?

Is this verifying that it is a 94 model??to the quote above from toyos?

i was just stating that the N1's had the the cheaper headlights as they were slightly lighter in weight. yours (like mine) appears to have the projector headlights. this has nothing to do with the year of the car. as the 32 gtr's had the projector's all the way till the end of production in 94.

Yes, all standard R32 GT'R's came with projector-style headlights all the way from 89-94. But they changed the style slightly in 92, still has the round shape inside but the round chrome "ring" was no longer there, along with the black plastic centre dash surround and a few minor things. They then upgraded it again in '93 with a stronger gearbox, oil pump, etc.

Most people didn't notice them until they had to do the work on those parts themselves. The easiest way to compare them is check the headlight and interior photos of the different models on carsales.com.au. Keeping in mind a few of them may have been replaced due to accidents or broken parts.

      Excuse me for butting in....but which part of ADHD can be considered a superpower? I would have though it far more likely that some ASD comorbidity is more likely to be contributing to an ability to hyperfocus on something. ADHD being aimed somewhat in the other direction. My shed looks like your shed. My whiteboard list of unfinished projects has entries going back 15 years. I know what you're talking about - I just struggle to connect ADHD to the results being discussed.

      Thanks for reaching out!  It's a blessing and a curse at the same time.  I'm undiagnosed but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see it in me... I have more half started projects laying around my house, shed, garden, etc taking up space and money, destroying aesthetics than if I added up all of my mates projects together. But, ADHD gives me the ability to hyper focus on things that no mere mortal could even  comprehend.  A recent pool build is an example of that....  I dont know anyone else that would be dumb enough and focused enough to take on then complete something of that magnitude. I call ADHD a superpower but it can equally be completely destructive if not controlled and focusedon the right places. Addiction is a major concern to ADHD people and thankfully my addictions have been no worse than projects, XBOX, chocolate and being an arsehole! It's often hereditary and my 13 year old son is currently learning how to drive it at the moment. Keep lurking! If i can finally finish this bloody thing at some point it will be a win for all of us ADHD'ers! 🤪

      I've been quietly following this thread for ages, but this one got me. Since my ADHD diagnosis (and associated learnings and prescription) I'm way less inclined to wade into forum yarns when there are better things to do with my time, as half the time I'd end up in some kind of forum debate even if that wasn't my intention. I've not lost the ADHD "superpowers", just am a lot better at directing my hyperfocus into slightly more constructive things, but haven't stopped quietly lurking in here in my spare time.

      Stripped the tank down and gave it a good scrub. It came up really good! Not sure if I'll just put it back in like that or give it a blackening treatment (such as Bowdens The Black Box). That might give it a matte look so might just run it as is.

      @MBS206 Ha ha, yeah ADHD is a daily battle to not get drawn in to doing things you want to do that you know you shouldn't do!  Every single time I walk into my shed I end up doing something I started the day having zero intention of doing! I keep mentioning the 1 step forward, 3 steps back scenario and I'm tipping people that are blessed with ADHD (yes, blessed) are the worst at that!
