Hey Guys,

I picked up my pride and joy last week... An R34 GTT 4 Door. Picked it up for a stellar price off some old bloke... I almost felt bad for minute about how about cheap he had to let it go for... but when i hit boost for the first time i soon forgot lol. Haven't been able to take the smile off my face yet. It's basically stock except exhaust and in great condition with low k's. Here's a few picks (hopefully they work).. excuse the dirt and crap the previous owner was a bit of a slob...

mmm very nice :)

First thought is to either shell out the money for a detail, or get some stuff yourself and put some elbow grease into it... It will bring the car alive and you will smile even more! :blink:

Another thing is those headlights... You can sparkle them up to a pretty much diamon finish... yours appear to have a slight yellow tinge on them... It's a personal pet peeve for me :rofl: Go buy a cut and polish compound and do one first and you will see a HUGE difference!

I always love the 34 4 doors... they still look intensly awesome where as the other models lost something when the doors were added... Good choice and welcome! :D

yeah like I said, buy a 'cut and polish' compound... I use Meguirs cut and polish (light brown bottle) and it clears them up to perfection :D

      Chips/Dents in wheels

      By niZmO_Man · Posted

      that's pretty good condition, those chips are nothing. Get a mobile repairer to sort it out. Nice wheels, I had white 17's on my GT-R once, looked nice.

      3D printing fun

      By Sean'O · Posted

      Howdy friends, So this evening I had a need to remove the rear compressor turbo pipe (long story, but I'm replacing it due to a bolt snapping off in the pipe and managing to then snap an extraction bit in the broken bolt, fun times -_-). The rear bolt is a bit of a bastard and very little room to get good leverage. I was able to get a 12 mm socket onto the bolt head, but none of my ratchets were able to fit, so I put together a "stubby" socket wrench to get it out and it worked surprisingly well 🙂. In the past I've "made" tools by cutting down spanners and bending them with a torch etc, but this 3D printed wrench was way less effort. I'll be keeping this one in my "special tool draw" from now on for sure ^_^b https://www.printables.com/model/868973-half-inch-stubby-socket-wrench

      Parts required for 4:11 diff gears in an R34 GTR Vspec (A-LSD)

      By djvoodoo · Posted

      It's good, but not as good as some people make it out to be on social media. Yes, you can feel the torque come in earlier, yes, it does make the car feel more lively below 4000rpm, and yes, it does feel more responsive, but it's not this 'unicorn' mod.  Everyday driving? Below 100km/h on Australian roads, it's worth it. At 110km in 6th gear mine will sit on about 2860rpm. Doing a Motorkhana or a small circuit? Yes, it's worth it. Doing Texas style speed runs? Prob not. Do you use the gears more? Yes and No. Doing 60/70km on most roads, I'm using the gears just like any other Getrag. 80km and above, you use 5th and 6th more often. Absolutely no issues driving with the 33 A-LSD. Didn't change the front diff, only changed the C&P wheel. Some people say to upgrade to a Quaife etc, but i've had no issue with torque steer or having it wander all over the road. The one thing that no-one really addresses is the issue of the Speedo being out. It's either use a speedo corrector, find a 33 gearbox speed sensor, or use an aftermarket display with GPS speedo.
