I found these V-Spec GTRs on carsales that don't seem to have diffusers:

Have they been removed?

the first link has a non v-spec speedo so i would say it is a standard model (non v-spec) or if it is a v-spec the klm's are wrong as the speedo is not from that car

You've got Superman vision if you can pick that from the pic. There is in fact a difference between the two variants, but it is so tiny and negligible. Between the 0 and 1 numbers under the rpm, there is an extra line.

But there is another noticeable difference as well that I have found out through comparing the two models. V Spec cars have these air diversion plates on the front lower control arms. These things guide air to the front brakes. When I had a look at my friends non V Spec car, they were missing.

I've had two v-specs and a v-spec 2 and none had the front brake air guides attached. The bolt holes were there for them on all though. Something so easily removed or added probably isn't a good guide to a real one.

Thanks for the pm's guys, I'll get some pics and specs to you when at work tomorrow :geek:

bit more difference then that the 0 to 3 on the tacho is compressed where as the non v-spec it is normal check both pics i have put up dont really need superman vision to see it

The difference is so minor it is not worth the extra, whatever dollars the price tag says.

Or you'd rather save up for the aftermarket mods and put it to the base model.

R34 GTR V-Spec = Standard R34 GTR but came with ATTESA E-TS Pro system and an Active LSD at the rear.

Had harder suspension and lower ride height.

A plastic front air diffuser (covering the underside of the engine) and also a rear carbon fiber air diffuser, designed to keep air flowing smoothly under the car.

The Multifunction Display (MFD) had two extra features to the display: Intake and Exhaust Temperatures.

Ceramic twin turbo's.

R34 GTR V-Spec II = As above + an increase of hardness to the suspension and larger disk brakes on the rear.

OEM carbon fiber bonnet with an NACA Air Duct to vent air to the turbo side of the engine.

Iridium center console and aluminium pedals. (Just for looks)

Seat interior colour were black rather then gray, which was used on previous R34 GT-R models. (Just for looks)

Indicator lenses were replaced with white / clear instead of amber / orange. (Just for looks)

Ceramic twin turbo's.

And you get a "V-Spec" / "V-Spec II" Badge / sticker on the rear bar.

You would change the stock suspension over to a set of fully adjustable ones as it will better the handling over any stock suspension.

Did R34 standard and v-spec have ceramic exhaust wheels? Was it only the N1 that had steel wheels? I ask becuase I would like to upgrade to steel wheel turbos in my R32 and I was under the impression all R34's had steel exhaust wheels.

Yeah!

Only The R34 GTR N1 / V-Spec II Nur / M-Spec Nur had the Steel Wheel Turbines.

According to the turbo chart I have, R34 GTR N1 Turbines have similar specs to the Garrett -7's and HKS GT-SS'.

just some food for thought (and a bit of a shameless plug)

whilst the R badge is alluring, i wouldn't count out a well sorted rwd RB25, especially for street duties.

290rwkw, my car is quicker than even most modified GTR's - had a kit that makes most people think it is a GTR.

Has the ultra, uber expensive rear diffuser (yes it does make a difference) - friendlier engine and gearbox for around town, and cheaper in the modification/maintenance stakes.

GTR rims which sit perfect on a GTT as compared to a GTR. Plus you'll have a bunch of cash left over to do a HEAP more things if you really want.

something to ponder on perhaps :D

plus you can't beat black on black :cool:

Just buy this one..

http://www.global-auto.ne.jp/stock/public_...amp;model=BNR34

Black vspec. everything you wanted and more.. and surely you can find a good ol nice compliance shop to do the work they are required to do...

55-60k landed and complied is my rough guess..

That thing is a weapon and even some of the other r34s there, strap in and hang on for half the price of doing it yourself here

    • OK, that is a helpful description, because that sounds exactly like a bleeding issue in the clutch....these are hard to bleed manually even when the damping loop has been removed. I'd suggest bleeding again....start by filling the master cylinder up and opening the bleed nipple. Come back and check every now and then that the master cylinder is not empty. Let it gravity bleed for a few hours and see if that improves
    • I replaced the whole clutch line with the chase bays braided hose, I think it removes that loop, is it the short hose that comes immediately off the slave or is there a drawing in the manual to find what you’re referring to? It was just re-bled when I upgraded to the nismo slave, old slave worked fine but I thought that might help, didn’t change a thing. It’s like the first half of the pedal is pushing air and then when it finally actuates the master the friction zone is tiny. Makes it practically impossible to launch the car
    • Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.
    • I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it
    • If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣
