hello all.

i am about to import a R32 GTR with a R33 GTR N1 spec engine in it. Now, from what i've seen, the import sheet says the engine is 400 ps claimed. Now this works about to be about 295 kw's according to a converter i have found. Anyone know for sure??

Anways, i need some1 to tell me what the difference between an N1 engine is to a standard one? I've searched google but am struggling to find any specs. Links would be good if anyone has found any.

Cheers in advance guys,

Regards,

Shaun

is this the car that was listed for sale in the for sale section ?

Hi,

i've checked the first four pages of the for sale section and it's none of the GTR's listed, the one i'm getting is white. Also, this car is still in Japan.

Do a search on this site, quite a few differences main one being stronger bottom end.

Hi,

I've searched the site a number of times typing different keywords, and all i've got is threads which mention N1 turbos, parts, etc etc, but not engine specs. If you have links to direct threads, that'll be a great help.

hmm ok the thread must have been deleted because a guy had it up for sale and then others were asking if it was the same one that was offered on the jspec website. or something :P

and it was white.

anyhow ... sounds like a fun car !! :D

also...

yeah 400ps is probably around about 400kw which is also around about 300-odd horsepower.

and the N1 engines i think have oil cooler from factory, also slightly bigger turbos than standard. not sure bout the internals though.

400ps is 394hp which is 294kw...

What I know of the N1 engine is stronger engine block (extra webbing), stronger pistons, steel wheel turbos instead of ceramic, higher pressure oil pump, and modified water pump so it doesnt caveat at continuous high rpm (which in turn doesnt make it so crash hot for standard daily driving so ive heard).

hmm, that sounds interesting... mainly because i am purchasing this car from J-Spec... so it must be the same one then. Is there a way to view deleted threads or something? I'm a bit curious now, especially since J-Spec were unable to get in contact with the seller to see if it was still available **confused**

Thanks for the reply amaru. Sounds like a pretty solid engine... but gtr engines are pretty solid in the first place :P

hmm, i've just tried pming Blitz but his inbox is full and he has to clear some in order to recieve my pm! :goddam:

anything else i can do?

LH side of the block, under the turbos, is a number cast into the block about 1/2 way down which reads 05U. That is a std block, N1 should read 24U

Cheers

ta man, it will be the first thing i look for when/if i get it.

ohh i have n1 engine in my gtr i beleive. i should check up on this. the auction sheet wasn't too clear as to what was changed.

but i had a reported 580ps.. or there abouts.

n1 turbos can support up to 300-350kw?? true someone??

so i guess if you have the right gear you can probably make near 400kw at wheels.

:spank:

Holla, yep i removed that thread as it was getting nasty, it turns out the thread starter actually posted photos of the wrong car, so naturally people wondered why he was advertising a car that J-Spec still had listed as $18k and available, for $35k.

    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
    • Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
