Hi Guys,

I am just about to become the owner of a very tidy 1993 GTR VSpec and wanted to know the exact differences between the standard model & VSpec model. I know the VSpecs are supposed to be relatively rare, but for what reason? Probably due to the limited numbers Nissan built, but what extra goodies did they actually come with over the standard model?

Thanks in advance.

BBS wheels, forgot about that.

17x8 (same set as Stagea 260RS IIRC).

Gauges and attesa are same I'm sure, not that you can tell the difference.

Brembo Front and Rear Calipers.

17 x 8 +30 BBS Wheels (Check the centre of the wheels for correct wheel sizing)

V-Spec Sticker on the boot lid.

A retuned ATTESA E-TS system.

In short not much. They are however pretty cool, especially if you keep them bone stock and clean.

Also, there is another post on here where someone gets a reply from Nissan regarding the differences. They state ATTESA is the same as the standard model.

Stiffer suspension... I see.

And yes of course, bigger tyres, to fit on to biggers wheels.

Ok, so looks like the coolest thing is saying I have a VSpec?!?! Lucky I think thats pretty cool;) Pick it up Saturday and will begin the process of cleaning out my funds to build an immaculate GTR!!! Oh make that, a R32 GTR VSpec;)

Thx Guys!!

"...in February 1993 the GT-R V-spec (for Victory) emerged wearing 17" BBS mesh wheels(225/50/17) covering larger Brembo brakes. The clutch actuation changed from a push to a pull system, the car had the standard rear differential, the electronic rear differential did not show up until the R33 Vspec. A year later the V-Spec II appeared with a new sticker and wider tires (245/45 17)..."

Wiki is king.

    • I wouldn't be concerned at all, other than to suggest having them flow tested when you receive them to confirm they are reasonably similar, and then put the highest to lowest flowing ones in cylinder 6,1,5,2,4,3
    • I’m only posting this cause I thought I had seen a bad review on these somewhere before. Any feedback? Would you guys recommend that if I do buy these I send em to RC to have em checked before installing. Or any other suggestions?   https://www.ebay.com/itm/114009965865?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=JDl-15yLQ8C&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=QTzlFXB1S-S&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
