Wouldn't an R35 have made more sense? Being the current Jap hero, and actually being sold new stateside to boot?

Guess Paul Walker still has a hard-on for his 34. Good man.

I liked the guy before Paul Walker.

Im glad Vin is back..

But gee.. they really could of put more thought into the cars..

Tokyo drift bloke

He want as big of a pansy as Paul Walker is

His voice made my ears bleed

I liked the first one and tokyo drift, the 2nd one just pissed me off in parts and how could the main cars be an evo (not so bad) and an eclipse ;) wayyyy to much crome in the 2nd one as well

thought id add that i heard the r34 in the 2nd one was a gtt also, and i read that walker said he wont do another one unless an r34 is one of the main cars ;) that makes him good. oh and didnt r34gtr all have gold brembo's (not sure about them all being gold) the ones in the pics look like red gtt ones to me

oh joy... lets see if the next generation of p platers get their mummys and daddys to buy them an NA r34 (as they have no idea why skylines are a such a great car) and dress it up full wank spec and see how much of a wanker they can be..

as if the skyline name isnt tarnished enough by idiots from the last 3 movies, they decide to make another abomination.

$20 to the first person to walk up to vinnie and tell tell him to hit the gym :banana:

that's been happening already

since na/auto r34's are so damn cheap

the only good thing to come out of the 2nd fast and the furious was when it hit dvd and it had the turbo charged prelude to link the 1st movie to the 2nd one, the sound of the R34 cranked up over the surround sound was awesome, other than that it was just a hollywood rap video for ludacris and tyrese lol

Seems to look like Paul Walker will once again have his hands on a blue R34 GTR in the latest of the fast and the furious movies (Fast and Furious). In 2 Fast 2 Furious he was driving a blue R34 GTR for about 1 minute. Can we see this car as the main feature of this highly fictional (yet not bad viewing) movie?

Wasn't the one in 2F2F silver rather than blue? (I think maybe had blue cobra stripes and blue neons though or something).

Yeah, its a silver one. Paul Walker at the time of making that movie actually owned an R34 GTR

I remember watching an interview they did with Paul Walker back when 2 fast 2 furious was about to be released where he said he owned a r34 gtr and was thinking of getting, or already had, a second r34 gtr.

Its about time they had a gtr as a main car but at least they had the engine in tokyo drift....

Pity its not an R32 eh eh? (oh hang on that probably means that more wankers will stick to buying R34's after they watch the movie phew :down: )

F&F are some of vin and paul walker's truly finest comedies, they really capture the essence of the car action movie satire that is obvious from the writing, however they seem to be more about American "tuner" styling than true JDM. But I guess thats what sells dvds!

That said I'll probably still go to the premiere lol

I can imagine at the end of the movie, at the carpark, stupid people doing stupid things in stupid cars.

couldnt agreee more with you, everyone is going to think they can drive like paul walker

    • So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.
    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
