Fastest R32 GTR?

The r32 N1 has 15hp more with 40kg less weight. Also the r32 GTR '91 has 10hp more than the s-tune and is 60kg lighter.
 
I would assume it's probably the Nismo version, which is a standard.

oze
This. It's called Nismo GT-R S-Tune R32 '00.

Second fastest would be GT-R V-Spec II R32 '94.

I'm not so sure whether the Nismo GT-R S-Tune would be the fastest R32.

Take the R34 for instance, even the Nismo R-Tune doesn't have the horsepower of the premium V.Spec II Nur.

I could be wrong though.
 
It would probably either be the 1989 (which is lighter than all of the rest of them) or the Premium (which I'm pretty sure can take the most power).

The stock one has the horsepower of the Premium V-Spec II Nur and then another 102 of them...

Nismo Skyline GT-R R-tune (R34) '99 - 437hp, 333lbft, 1560kg
Nissan Skyline GT-R M-Spec Nür (R34) '02 - 325hp, 333lbft, 1580kg

Of the R32 GT-Rs, all of the Nissan models have 294hp and 275lbft peaks. The lightest would be the GT-R '89 (1430kg) followed by the GT-R N1 '91 (1470kg) and the GT-R V-Spec N1 '93 (1480kg). The Nismo Skyline GT-R S-Tune (R32) '00 packs 390hp, 304lbft and weighs in at 1500kg.

I can't speak for the values of modified vehicles, however.
 
What Famine said.. for the most part.

There is a small difference between the non-Nismo R32s in terms of Peak Power. The '89 makes peak power 100 RPMs before the '91s which will make a small difference.

If we're talking modified then it's a different ball game.

The fastest R32 may not even be a GT-R but a GTS-T at say... 475-500pp. ;)
 
The r32 N1 has 15hp more with 40kg less weight. Also the r32 GTR '91 has 10hp more than the s-tune and is 60kg lighter.

In these aspects, the ammount of skylines and miatas make all the sense.

I love the variety, the small details and differences between them.

Still miss the 4 door and GTS4 versions from old GTs.

My bad, when he said fastest, my mind defaulted to upgraded cars. :ouch: Indeed the stock Nismo cars do have the highest horsepower among the lot. What I have posted before is now irrelevent, unless we are talking about upgraded cars. :D

I wish the N1 models were more valuable in this game. GT is one of the only games to feature them so I think it'd be cool if the engine's response to tuning was more accurate but it appears the same as the rest of the standard R32s. The premium appears to produce more power when highly tuned, even more than the Nismo tuned variant.

No they don't, because fully tuned and modified (as I assume the OP is talking about) they should all be identical. PD applying arbitrary, minor and (generally) unrealistic changes between them in their stock forms doesn't change that or justify their existence.



Especially not for the Miatas, where most of them are completely imaginary (as are the changes between them).

Another thing to consider when using stats to determine which variation is fastest: drivetrain (AWD vs RWD) and peak torque. Yes I know tq was mentioned once along the discussion line and it's really an important factor. Of course the best consideration would be, take them all to the dragstrip and SSR7 (or X ring) and determine which one is *actually* fastest. :D
 
Also, something to keep in mind if you plan to do any sort of tuning on the car; the Nismo vrsion doesn't actually allow you to adjust the settings on the front LSD. This can put a hamper on getting the most out of the car.

Peak torque isn't necessarily important in a racing game (it can be, but it depends on what RPM it's at and how the transmission is set up). The most important thing is keeping your average power up.
 
:dunce:👎 No they shouldn't be identical, and they aren't.

Explain how that makes sense. Performing the same extensive modifications to the same two base cars (gutting the interior, replacing most/all of the engine internals, strengthening the drivetrain, replacing body panels with lighter ones, replacing suspension components, etc.) would, in real life, leave you with two identical cars.



The things that are different between model variations that cause performance and weight differences cease to cause those differences when you remove those things from the car and replace them with better componentry.

We are talking about GT5, not real life. GT5's 'engine mods' are light on details. Stage one two and three are the only pieces of info we are given, and given the performance differences of the cars after, seeing that they are not identical proves that the mods are not extensive enough to do so.

If you want to take it to real life, the N1 RB26 block responds to tuning a hell of a lot better to the standard RB26 block mainly because of it's cooling capabilities found in the flow channels, something that cannot be modified on the standard block.

The cars will be different to start out with, and they will be different to end with. 👍

hey guys just to let you all know, I am talking about FULLY MODIFIED. I went through last night tuning many of my R32's and the N1 model from 91?( i think 91) is the fastest. it can be a fully tuned r33 GTR on the indy track with the same setup by around a cars length :)

the 89' is just behind it! and i did my testing on the 'speed test' too and the N1 was faster at everythign than any other r32.
 
Oh really, good stuff 👍 I read on My GT that the Premium achieved the best performance, I'll be glad if the N1 is the true winner here.

Yep the 91' N1 is the fastest by a fair bit actually.. it's lighter and more powerful :nervous:

I was racing mates with drag tunes last night (1/4 mile). No r32 comes close to the N1, the r33 Premium is full/half a cars length behind and against the R34 Premium the R32 loses by about half a cars length :sly:

Hopefully not many will see this so i can still go online and surprise people! haha
 
It would probably either be the 1989 (which is lighter than all of the rest of them) or the Premium (which I'm pretty sure can take the most power).
I built The R32 and got about 770hp and built it for top speed and got 440 km/h
