imo classic gtrs are the win any day, especially for their day, imagine driving thoes things back in the 70s!

but since the r32 gtr in all its variations the rest have been trying to live up the the origional king, several have gotten close even gotten their but the king still wins

Yeah that black R34 looks MEGA.

The rear of the R35 looks spot on, but the front doesn't make it look anything special.

If it had the lights square on infront say like the current BMWs (or like the R34) it would look much nicer

But didn't Paul Newman and Robert Redford get rich from the railways? ;)

Can someone explain this reference to me? Showing your age there Terry..lol

As for a six month stint in the mines, i wouldnt have my nice sheltered workshop in the railways to come back to if i left for that long unless it was long service leave and by the time i qualify for that im not sure there will be any iron/bauxite/gold/uranium left in the country...it will have all been shipped to China!

Agree with 34's being the most aggressive model, and hence by a bloodied nose, my favourite of the lot!

these shots might be reposts?

anyway since we're on a black 34 theme, heres a more local one!

owner is on SAU, is he in this thread?

only difference i can spot from the yank one posted earlier is the brake calipers arent painted blue and the bonnet isn't vented. That would complete the look for me i think.

(oh yeah and the OTT wing..might bring that down a few inches. ,maybe)

    • Well, yes, every CU on the bus is available via the Consult port, but whether the scanner you are using is capable of talking to the TCU, the ABS/TCS modules, etc etc, is what is at question here. Many of them are only for engine codes. So, if you have one of those, you won't know if the ABS is having a bitch.
    • That's now. R chassis Skylines come from a time when the tolerance in the ADRs was a bit more....slack. My car, on 235/35-17, which is damn near the exact same size as the original 205/55-16, is pretty much bang on correct indicated speed across the whole legal range. That's demonstrated with constant speed run over 5km, and GPS speed. It's just the luck of the draw. My particular speedo head has to be the thing that is "calibrated" that way, because everything else (the diff ratio, the gearbox and the speedo drive**) are all same same as most other Skylines. **OK, so the speedo drive is a Navara unit to drive the R32's cable, not the electronic unit than an R33/4 would normally have with teh same gear on it. Otherwise, I applaud your OCD tendencies, and I would do the same if I needed to.
    • Not too sure, I believe the Nissan consult port does everything? Also just filled up the reservoir to full and the light is still on. The float seems to move up and down fine.
    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph on 255/40 17, so again conservative Google says manufacturers need to set the speedo from 4 to 10% slower than actual road speed.....for safety.....and compliance  After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
