How To Identify An R32 Gtr V Spec. Help Needed

[z54]

Hi All,

Just a quick note to say g'day.

Im new to this forum and in the process of researching the R32 gtr in the hope of finding one in the near future.

I have a couple of questions if anyone can help, Ive tried the search option but appear to be struggling to find the answers.

So here goes:

How can i identify if an r32 gtr is a factory V-Spec? Does the chassis number confirm this?

Is there a V-spec I and V-spec II on the r32?

Was the V-spec a factory option.

When did the V-Spec first come out.

Any help or links would be much appreciated.

Many Thanks

The vin can tell you, there is a FAST search thread on here somewhere.

There are both Vspecs and Vspec2's.

They are a factory build car.

I think the vspec first showed in 91.

*waits for the usual suspects to show up

What ^^ he said, run a VIN / FAST number check.

V-Spec: Standard GTR with,

- Brembo brakes

- Retuned ATTESA E-TS system

- 17" BBS wheels with 225/45/17 tyres.

Released in 1993

V-Spec II: Same as a V-Spec but with wider tyres 245/45/17.

the correct information you need is on the model number. you will find a 7,A standard Gtr. Num 8 V spec II. No number v spec. this is the 3rd to last digit on the model number not the vin number. Thats the only real way of knowing what you own. As I own a standard Gtr with brembo's

check this site

http://www.users.on.net/~goofyhsk/info/chassis_plate.html

or get onto the "Fast my vin" Topic and get one of the guys there to punch it in for you.

other differences include

*10mm lower suspension (apparently)

*retuned Attessa (More front Bias)

*Active LSD (rear diff housing is finned for cooling where as standard is not)

*Slightly larger Brembos than standard "Nissan" brakes

*V-specI 1453 built in 1993 (unsure exact months)

*V-specII 1303 built up until Aug 1994 when R32 GTR production ceased.

*ONLY difference is tyre width, wheels are even still the same width...

*Stickers..

*Price...

If you are going to hunt down a V-spec I or II, be prepared to spend extra for the stickers, and do yourself a favor look at it as restoration and a toy, they are fetching some money in Japland now

Or do everyone else who owns one a favor and write it off to increase value of ours...

this seems like a decent thing
