Hey guys,

I've been off sau for a year or two. Sure we used to have another rare register with a good record of vpsecs and n1s? I'm probably just lost tho, lol.

Anyway adding for the community, in Brisbane with a 1994 Vspec II N1. Unfortunately not very standard! :-)

Cheers

Michael

I've PM'd you Michael over a common interest matter.

I'll appreciate your thoughts.

You've had this for a while right Michael?

If I'm correct this is the beast on YouTube on i think Queensland raceway struggling for traction ☺

Testing my memory now but pretty sure it has a black or carbon bonnet?

Fortunately, Australia has acquired 2x BNR32 V-Spec II N1 in recent times.

Congratulations to you Michael as well.

We'd like to grab them before Canada's timeline permits...

Last six digits on mine are -311603

It's still awaiting compliance.

Congrats again Tez.

Stunning!!!

Sick.

What's the model code on your blueplate in the engine compartment Terry... just to confirm what we think V-Spec II N1's should have (check the first page of this thread).

That is very nice. That rolled off the production line a few hundred after my V Spec II N1. Loving those LMGT1s.

What are the details on the other N1 that has come into AUssie?

I thought for a moment that wrxkilla may have recently bought that N1 with only 29,***Km on it at auction, but apparently not. It'll be interesting to see what country it has gone to though. ;)

Loving ur N1s guys. Yes that's my one.

Value of mine as an N1 is pretty low as it's pretty decently modified and has been primarily used as a track car. I bingled it at QLD Raceway a year back and haven't had it back on the road yet either.

I'd love a nice stock one.

I'm struggling to find pics on sau I have posted before (learning how to use this new ipad app) so will grab some and upload.

Yes Ants, it's also a V-Spec II N1.

Your kind words are appreciated.

Not complied yet.

need to get some more sneakey shots for us to drool on Terry

Such a beautiful rate car

Well done

Thank you. In actual fact, upon turning retirement age I left myself with too little super; so I decided to cash in whatever I had and invested in the N1s.

As the ABC News economist said at the end of 2013, "The best investment over the past year has been collectible cars."

He only omitted how much you can enjoy your super though.

Nice.

I doubt very much you will be tracking that R32 N1 Terry.

I'm confident you will feather you're investment well and manage to enjoy owning it at the same time

When will it be complied?

Very nice Terry! Can't be too many other forum members that own an R32 N1 and an R34 N1? :D

Nice.

Any day now Ants.

I've been tempted to relocate back into the big smoke: however, two things hold me back.

a) I used to get asthma in the Sydney Basin and...

b) A couple of roads in the Blue Mountains lend themselves to some good squirts

:)

Shoosh!

My aim is to enjoy driving them albeit not too far.

Then when my wife and I do a dream holiday to South America I will probably sell an N1. We spent heaps of $$ already to see Europe 8 yrs ago. I love these cars, but they're not an obsession.

These cars need to be driven and not cosseted. My 2c.

    • 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 🤣
    • I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.
    • Some of them keep working fine. 9 out of 10 of them end up causing an absolute misery bleeding the system and get thrown on the workshop floor in a tantrum and never thought about again because they were never really needed and just added crap to the car that we could have done without. Same-same with HICAS, A-LSD, and various other stupidities that over eager 10x engineers thought we had to have.
    • Not required but appreciated. Super Coppermix Twin even the non-competition model feels like the pedal is noticeably heavier than stock which was pretty well judged IMO. I'll be swapping in the Nismo operating cylinder soon to see how that feels.  Personally I haven't felt anything that justifies replacing the damping loop, at least compared to more modern stuff where the clutch delay valve is actually quite noticeable.
