Then R35 hands down.

Unless there is something about the R34 that you really must have????

I guess the performance of R35 is in a different league to the 34,

however............... i would still love to own a R34 as well! :)

Its just the raw sexyness and reputation and that keeps bringing me back to the R34.

Yes, Ive also heard you have to dump tens of thousands in to A R34 to bring it up to match the R35 performance.

But I want a R34 as close to standard as possible and I'll hold on to it. Already getting hard to find one which hasnt been 2 worked.

Stock for stock, the 34 is nowhere near the level of a 35.

The 35 is also the only car that has put a smile on my face without a clutch pedal, going from 35 back to an rb model you really feel the age of the 'old' gtr's.

For reference a stock 35 gtr does tsukuba in same time as z tune 34, which is regarded as the best goin street 34.

34 wins on price an maintenance though, unless u do it up you will not have maintenance costs like u see from r35.

For everything else, but pointless back seats, the 35 wins imo. So easy to drive, so fast, no lag, torque in any gear ( an amount you can only dream of from a rb ) great handling etc.

If money is not a problem I'd pick a r35 if I was you, the hype on them is well justified!!!

What cars are you coming from?

Hello, R33 GTR, R33 S2 GTST, 5x R34 GT-T, V35, Evo VII, Mercedes W211 E500, 350Z convertible, 350Z coupe. Thats all i can think of at the moment.

What i observed is the older nissan cars I've owned seemed 2 be better build quality than my newer nissans that ive had.

With my V35 and both of my 350z's I was getting sick of the power window faults, central locking faults, weak gearbox synchros, tears in the roof of the convertible - etc. All from design faults and sh*t parts. And u replace them with genuine spares which are also sh*t parts and its only a matter of time before it happens again.

With R34 u know the design faults already (stuff like rust around boot brake light). Im hoping that these similar issues i mentioned above dont pop up in the R35 over the next few years.

But R35 is such a sexy car aswell, they look fantastic every time i see them.

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

Would it be okay if they were low paid white-skinned students dominoz?

much respect to the R34 but you need a ride in the R35 - its godlike in every way

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • 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 🍻
