Hmm... I thought they'd custom make dampers if special ordered.
I think the stock part is probably desirable then -- the torsional vibrations associated with the GT-R motor may be different, so the dampening may be greater or lesser than needed for your application. In any case, lots of boosted Z34's are running the OEM damper without incident, so it should be fine.
