Common Problems With R34 Gtr

[Ohe]

Guys i have been looking for a car since early this year and been comparing EVO IX, WRX STI 06 & Skyline R34 V specs. I like to find out what common problems do R34 GTRs have so i can get a better understanding when I’m making my final decision. I know most problems and issues on Sti & Evos but nothing on R34 GTR’s so I would really appreciate if you could help me out here!

No problems really to speak of in my case...

In 3 years of ownership, I've only had to replace a set of coilpacks with Splitfires, the oil pump with an N1, front rotors replaced with slotted DBAs and before I took ownership I had a rust spot below the bootlid light attended to.

The car gets serviced every 5000Kms and that's it.

Im trying to think of any problems I've had with the GT-R's but.... I cant because there hasnt been any.

Hmm. I've had mine for almost a year now. Put on about 17,000km. I like to drive it.

Oil changes every 3000km, and all other fluids every 10,000km (diffs, box etc). Hasn't had one problem.

Just take your time. make sure whatever you buy is THROUGHLY gone over by a decent mechanic. And check for dodgy accident repairs, some of the cheaper 34 R's have had a decent whack.

I'll be in the market for one in the next 1-2 years as a track cop

edit: LMAO why did the language filter change p-i-g to cop?^^^ p-i-gs don't eat donuts

Neck injuries to bystanders cause its such a head turner.

Accidents cause its stops traffic.

...not to mention that some owner had to travel 200km to pick up his car from his service-technician/engine-rebuilder lol
