Hi all,

I've had a couple of skylines over the last 3 years and I purchased a very clean R32 GTST a few months back which I am currently selling at the moment as I take delivery of a work car next month.

A quick question for those of you knowledgable in the M-Spec area. (as I am not)

The R32 I own has a full M-spc body kit (side skirts, front bar, spoiler etc)

How do I tell if it is an M-spec?? Are there other extras that will determine if it is?

At the moment I have advertised it as an R32 GTST with an M-Spec body kit but am I selling myself short?? It won't effect the price I want for it but it would be a nice point of reference if it was indeed an M-Spec.

Please do a search in future before you ask a question, this has been covered at least 3 times this week already!

There is also no such thing as a r32 spec-M or M-spec, it is called a Type-M. That will help with your search. Also, look for a thread with FAST in the title, if you supply ur vin number someone will look up ur exact car for its basic details.

3 times this week hey?? Tell me where because I can't find any post answering my question. There are lots of people selling cars with that description and talking about bits and pieces but before you pay out on me how about you do some research and see if the question has been answered? as I already did.

My VIN number is not is nissan FAST either and upon enquiring at Nissan I was told that not all VIN numbers are registered

You post a thread that outlines exactly what defines an Spec M/ M spec and I will eat my words. If not how about you leave your post whoring about research to frequent threads asking "what turbo should I get?" or "Is a front mount worth it?"

Or one of your threads asking about "Aftermarket Boost Gauges" on the 29/4/05

Now there is a topic that comes up every week.

there is too many conflicting thoughts on what and what isn't a type m..

I have what I think is a genuine "non type-m" but half the stuff of what people says defines a non type-m is not even true..

anyhow, i wouldn't worry too much about what you claim in the ad, as most people will have no idea anyhow. As long as its got the proper 4pot brakes, I wouldn't worry too much

hey jevan,

if it has 4-pot front brakes, then advertise it as a Type M

that's all anyone cares about really i think

as for what is type m? well, i think it included different steering wheel, rear wiper, bodykit, better brakes, and some other stuff too

but from memory any or all of these things could be added to a non type m or removed from a type m, so brakes really seal the deal...

Warren.

    • I haven’t taken them out of the cases yet    inside the box is this packaging which is pretty much like a massive blister pack 
    • Purchased a NC MX5 a while ago Basic suspension mods done, BC coils and Whiteline sway bars  New DBA calipers, discs and pads Added some 17 x 8 Konig Decagrams with 215/45 17 PS5's Added some typical NA bolt on's, i.e. full exhaust and intake  Added 0.5ltrs with a MZR2.5 swap, nice bump in torques  Found a detachable hard top which is locked in for a colour match with my local paint shop in Feb 25, this also includes some PDR as it has received a few love taps from parking in the local shops when in the hands of my Minister for War and Finances, me, I park nowhere near other cars and typically park on the street The little thing is awesome, I drive it everywhere, it handles like a dream whether I'm up it or just cruising  But now,  because I'm a idiot, I keep looking at turbo kits....... did I mention I'm a idiot Why is dose so appealing  All of the NA 2.5 glory, well.......until sometime in 2025 anyway....🤪  
    • I would not be surprised if you are the only person on earth that has the interest/desire to do that lol.  The Haltech base map is a really good starting point, the car will fire easily and drive very well, even on mild boost levels. To me, following your advice sounds like some sort of ancient Chinese water torcher lol (this is not an insult Josh, never change <3)
    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new
