WHITE PEARL V-SPEC II

by Charles Wong

Build Concept

The V-spec 2 is my 2nd R34 GTR. Having a track car already, this car is built to be a daily driver in mind. 

Being an everyday commuter, the V-spec 2 is mostly built with OEM spec with minor upgrades to enhanced its performance and reliability.  The engine was replaced with an N1 unit with additional cooling like ARC intercooler and Radiator. With the Nismo downpipes and exhaust, this car is perfect for everyday driving with minimal nuisance

The Nismo aero is a common upgrade on most R34 GTR and this one is no exception. The Z-tune front bumper with Nismo side skirt/rear spat gives the car a more modern look.  The rear carbon spoiler riser helps with rear visibility and adds to a more aggressive finish.

The V-spec 2 features an updated interior with black seats, door panel and brushed titanium trims.  I've fitted an Apline iLX-007 deck as a media center offering GPS and Apple Play to keep me entertained during traffic hour.

Notable Spec Features

 

This is by far my favourite upgrade on this car and I believe it brings out spirit of this build.  I've fitted the R35 Spec V Brembo carbon ceramic brakes with 390mm front/380mm rear rotors.  They are fitted under 19" TE37SL with Ohlins DFV coilover. This combination significantly updates the V-spec2 to become comparable to any modern sports car.
