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

    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
    • Yes then it will turn on but I want the car features to work  
    • My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.
    • Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?
    • What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
