It is a very good car and has proven itself very tough and reliable throughout. It is faster and more capable than many people predicted.

The transmission is only a problem if you are either unlucky or excessively harsh on it. Stories of transmission failures have been blown a little out of proportion.

Wow I'm shocked anyone replied to this question. Your a decent man handbrake. I'll give it a go.

Well methinks the OP lacks a basic grip on the English language so I cannot very well say this... 'why don't you try doing a bit of research. Even a mediocre internet or magazine search will give you the answer. 'brilliant', 'astounding', 'supercar', 'masterful engineering' e.tc. e.t.c for some reason get thrown around a lot. Also winner of multiple awards such as best car and best performance car of the year.'

I can't suggest he do that because the poor bloke may not be able to use the internet very well. Although well enough to post on the GTR forum. Hmmmm.

To answer though... its an engineering marvel. Perhaps the most advanced, ferociously fast sports car you may ever drive/own. Anyone that wishes to launch 50x on a cold start probably can break any transmission. 

I like this part ...'even BNR34 is better a lot, is it?' 

translated: 'I believe my car is better than the R35'

answer: No. Sorry. No it is not. 

Also parts for the R35 are expensive because the car is in a different league. Its $180,000 and does very very fast things on a track. 

ps. I recommend you look into a Toyota camry. I hear very good things about their reliability  :dry:

first, i didnt force you reply me.

yes, my english not good. so what? i cannot join the forum and post whatever i like? before i post what have to ask your for permission? you are those like to make quarell, right? i know your english is well. poor bloke? i had do research, but i still wanna post to ask here, how? did offend you? do you need to offend me? yes, you are better than me, but still a lot people better than you. if you dont like , you can choose click other topic, don click this. Today you offend me. you will be offend by other in one day. Dont worry, i dont mind what you say.

This is shapping up to be a "sit back and enjoy the LOL's" thread.

I'm yet to see a car model that has actually gotten worse from one model to the next, especially one from 2001 then a break of a few years, then 2008 so R34<R35.

Also LOL at the comment about the guy not having info because he doesn't speak english.... The internet isn't just English, not to mention translator programs or the fact the Nissan is a global brand.

The R35 is better than the R34 by miles, the 2011 model is shaping up to be much better than the current 2010 model as well.

Reliability is subjective, with so many cars being produced and with so many variables, it is inevitable there is going to be some faulty cars, just like any other car make in the world... There would have been some R34's that blew gearboxes early on as well, all depends on how much publicity the news gets and if you are receptive of the news.

Landrover had the same throttle body issues as Lexus/Toyota did, but it never got that much publicity...

How long is a piece of string?

Im just laughing the the 35 lover boys getting all pantsy because someone dare say their computer with 4 wheels is not the best car ever made

it's not?

my dealer lied to me, i thought they weren't allowed to do that

you are those like to make quarell, right? 

No, sir, I do not bite my thumb at you, sir, 

But I bite my thumb, sir. 

Do you quarrel, sir? 

Quarrel sir! no, sir. 

If you do, sir, I am for you: I serve as good 

 a man as you.

umm you do realise nissan was using computerised all wheel drive, all wheel steering etc on the R32 GTR around 4 years even before your r33 went into production :(

getting back on topic, the op is right in that aftermarket parts are unnecessarily expensive for the R35 - 1K for JDM sways? I paid half that for the same brand on my 350 years ago. And i dont buy into that, just because its a more expensive car to buy initially, the parts must therefore be more expensive. Thats dealer bs, like porsche/bmw charging me 1k for an oil change, when as far as i can tell, all oil drain plugs unscrew the same

$1k for JDM sways??? Crap. Yes your right then. That is unjustified mark up.

Hahahaha it's sad that I know what that is off of. Damn High School english classes!

    • Put a fuel pressure gauge on it. Replace the turbos. Probably completely separate issues.
    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
