debadge the hamburger yes

the gtr badge on it's own does look good

Followed a black 35 the other day toward Eastern - rear spoiler removed and only a GT-R badge on the boot - looked good.

You took a car you own to a carwash that uses a sponge to wash your car???? :down:

Save the money and usually time, most of all your car's appearance, take it to a high pressure carwash booth and do it yourself. Better yet, buy yourself a karcher and do it from home. Then just use a clean chamois to dry it off.

as a hobbiest detailer i couldnt fathom having my cars washed by low paid indian students, but then again everyone has diff priorities in life and some have other things to do instead of busting out the karcher etc on a weekend

nor would i simply high pressure the panels and then wipe all the dirt into the super soft nissan clear coat with a shamwow

op if you want someone to look after your car, shoot me a pm, i can recommend you a mobile detailer in your state who will do an at home wash

Mario did your families cars???? He's pretty speialised in what he does.

I saw coppers writing up a ticket for a GTST parked in a loading zone outside Coles in Diamond Creek one night. It was after hours and a place where everyone parks, so I thought it was a bit tough.

Then I saw it had a GTR badge on it so I told them to book him twice.

had a R33 GTR back in 2000, sold it cos there was just way too many fake GTR's running around.

thank god that R35 looks vastly different to the V35............... even though there are still some attempts for the V35 owners trying to stain the GTR badge!

i think there are 2 white V35s running around in sunnybank with the badges....................

True and yeah it is good to see the R35 GTR looking vastly different to a V35.

Fortunately, to the trained eyes of people who are familiar with GTR's, they can tell if it's a real GTR or not, even with the fake badge on.

I dont mind this

I only like to see this 'old school' GTR badge on the KPGC10 but this surprisingly looks good.

You sold your R33 GTR because other cars not as good as the gtr looked similar and had a badge on it????

Anyone who matters can spot a fake from a mile away (unless someone has spent a shit load of $$$ on body work on a car that isn't worth doing it to), and you really gave up the performance and satisfaction of owning an R33 gtr back in 2000 (which then was the equavalent of owning a 2008 JDM R35 in todays terms) because there was others that looked similar???

That is the type of snobby thought process of................... it doesn't make sense, they are all Datsun afterall :P

I miss my Datsun still (oh and it had a gtr front bar, no badge or anything else)

Hi every1, I have been looking for a nice r34 gtr for a while now but have not found anything yet. So I am starting to think about getting a r35 gtr instead.

But are all of the parts etc very expensive? Would just like 2 kno what im getting myself in 2.

    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
