Any thoughts on a Silver R34 GTR?

Only reason I am not 100% keen is because I have already owned a silver GTS-T.

Sliver or White is a good choice, all the others

-Bayside Blue yuck not a fan of it.

-MNP in all 3 versions impossible to keep clean(been there done that will my R33 GTR)

-Black is the same hard to keep clean

-Millenium Jade, good luck getting that colour I do like it but, would be my pick just because its rare.

-Yellow is shit also (been there done that also my 350Z).

Thanks for all of the input. Ben, I am starting to think that you are right on the money. I have been wanting bayside blue but I am starting to think the colour is a bit full on for me. Don't want white though, I dunno, just not keen on it. They look good, but I just don't want to own a white car? haha

My favourite colour is actually that darker grey that came in the later models. These are the colour codes:

KR4 - Darker Grey - in later models

KV2 - Most common, like the R33 GTS-T silver (Mine in my sig)

WV2 - Lighter than KV2

Here are some pics from another thread:

R34 GTRs are definitely getting rare - I am having trouble finding them these days. Auctions are just white ones, or crashed ones.

I missed a spot in the second photo, looks pretty obvious now but maybe it was just to late when I was playing with photos lol

pics came up well Cal, looking good.

regarding colours on 34 GTR's i'd say white is my favourite - take Scott's GTR for example. I also am a fan of the grey, Bayside Blue looks great with black wheels.

The yellow i don't mind either, definitely not my first second or third choice but i've seen yellow GTR's come up looking really nice

    • You know what, I am enjoying your updates, but I have to say it is pretty poor form to walk into a shop that is paying for space and stock on the floor, try all their seats to work out what you are happy with, then buy somewhere else. If everyone did that the shop will be out of business with no opportunity for anyone to try a seat before buying. 👎  
    • Good work, and thanks for posting up your solution for future people!
    • Yeah mate that’s the plan, I just want something I can have fun in and work on during weekends.  There’s really only 1 road fit to drive the car on and luckily is been redone recently.  I do want to tune it next year sometime, no dynos here so I’m looking at an ECU that can be remote tuned. 
    • Initially I thought having a pair of Recaro seats would be a big bonus, it turns out these do get a little uncomfortable on long journeys (my fault, not the seat). I had a look through the GSM Performance website at reclining seats and booked an appointment to visit their show room. I got the Recaro Sportster CS for the R34 from here, was very happy with the service received so of course a re-visit was in order. Unfortunately the two Corbeau seats I had chosen aren't on display but they had 4 other options available. Two seats dug into my back, one dug into my legs and the other was perfect. I also found out that Recaro seats use a larger bolt pattern so some adaption was required. Luckily GSM offer some universal adaptors that should solve this problem. I searched the interwebs for price comparisons and Corbeau themselves were the cheapest at £300 cheaper (for the pair). I asked GSM if they could price match, unfortunately they couldn't. I later received an email saying Corbeau would honour them the same discount, but the purchase was already made. I did however order the brackets from GSM, both arrived on the same day. I started with the passenger side seat, knowing this was going to be a little trial and error. There are 3 mounting holes at the front and 2 at the rear on these JURAN Racing seat rails.  With the adaptor brackets mounted, the allen cap bolts started to push into the seat, NOT GOOD!  The rear mounting holes lined up but there were issues at the front. The holes were 1/2 hole out, so the brackets got a tickle with the drill to modify the holes. The supplied bolts weren't going to be long enough and a spacer was needed to stop the adaptor bars from bending. A local fasteners company supplied be with some nylon spacers and longer bolts (M8x30, although these will be replaced with 35mm long shortly) A before and after I pre-drilled the front bracket before making a start on the driver's seat to save some time. And in no time at all that was in the car too. The all black seats have transformed the interior and these are MUCH more comfortable. The only downside with the new Corbeau seats is I sit a little higher, but I'll happily accept that over discomfort. The Youtube video can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPyttKPktXA
