I've never seen that color on a stock GT-R. It's probably aftermarket. There was a few Silvia reds that look close to that, though.

There are so many different shades of red from so many different auto makers/aftermarket paint companies, it's a crap shoot trying to find that same color.

R32 reds were a daker, close to maroon, shade. This is way to bright to be a stock R32 color. IF it's a Nissan color at all, it would probably be something from the early 2000's on, I'd wager as I've never seen any Nissan with a red quite that bright.

As I said, I have never seen that color stock on an R32. If it is a Nissan OEM color, it's likely a Silvia color. Here is a a Skyline color off the R34 that's really bright, "vibrant red," A54.
