There isnt a power increase. Its torque.

The 96spec to 98spec Integra Type R had a torque increase by changing the exhaust cam to one slightly bigger. Zero killerwasps increase but it gave a slight torque increase. Maybe its something like that. Or maybe its complete bullshit too. :)

Hi guys

I though I might share this encase anyone ever wonders what the differences are between the series 1 & series 2 R34.

post-86207-0-45673700-1343366274_thumb.jpg

I have a series 2 build date 9/2000 and there is a mountain of things that differ, garrett labeled turbos to start with 206ps

cams are the torque increase, bigger smic , electronics are different using SMD curcuits that dont interchage, side airbags on some cars , lower emissions , heated sunroof and mirrors with super defrost snow option , seats use different cloth inside and out, etc , i have the factory S2 Gt/Gtt etc sales brochure and I was blown away by the options not documented anywhere

7 sedan models, 5 coupe not including gtr!!

Where'd you get em? Wouldnt mind sourcing myself a couple.. I love reading sales brochures lol

There from japan i found a source

He has a bunch of gtr 34 stuff and a little gtt stuff left till i can buy em lol

The R35 stuff came from Au, Uk, US, japan , unopened from nissan, japan 2013 still has the nissan logo seal on the plastic , has a model r35 sales gift to entice you to buy one from nissan , high detailed mounted desk item in nissan box

all kinds of goodies , impul , nismo, blitz dealer catalogs from 2000 model

Special model pamphlets like Black edition R35 , Nismo edition etc

fark, makes me want to get rid of my S1 and get a S2. . . although you could close the gap tween the two by fitting a 3 inch exhaust (cheap enough)

Heated sunroof?

Yep to keep the ice from building up on the front edge of the roof and flying off onto the cars backwindow or behind you , my rx7 used to throw sheets of ice and snow off the sunroof down the backwindow and deflect it up off the whale tail

The heated copper tube is between the front and leading edge of the sunroof glass held off the headliner but hooked to the roof on metal clips , blew me away lol wtf is that look

heated mirrors , ditched mine for carbon ganadors already lol

Car is nearly stock on dyno it ran 200kw+ @ wheels and 503nm @ 3100rpm on 10psi and failing cat still pulling power but the cat was glowing before redline so we stopped ( bp 98)

And neo engines

Use GTR rods , solid lifters and series 2 use a N1 style waterpump impeller to reduce cavitation

nissan fast doesnt even have half of the parts in it

Which is annoying When the dealer cant find it lol

Most of the differences I have listed are just things i have noticed as I use to have a series 1 & now I have a series 2. A few of the other things like torque figures I got from this sales brochure

Yeah thats one i have , but the big A4 brochure has concept car plans for R34 and lots of other details

Most in japanese but not all lots of photos and spec charts even comparing it with R33

And crash zone charts for the frame

Its pretty interesting since info is so hard to find on lower models of skylines everything is GTR lol

Can someone tell me why manual would have Helical lsd and auto has Viscous? Also why would manual have more torque than auto?

Automatics have a built in slip factor and because of the design less power makes it to the wheels

Automatics in general arent performance base cars they're designed for coffee cups, traffic and being smoothe , only lately has it become a performance option (flappy paddles) semi auto

(Always in drag racing circles due to being able to sit on the exact rpm for launch )

Australia has so many people who don't know how to drive a clutch it forces car companies to build autos , 4 dr's , growing up in the states everyone drove a stick and had 2 dr's , now its lazy drivers everything is huge, traffic brutal, coffee mugs 2 litre size

Some people look a people who drive a stick , turbo, 2dr as hard core rebels lol or mid age crazy

Overall jap cars of the 1970-2000 in auto were cushy cars not beasts an smoothness was more important

I love manuals, i've owned about 30 cars in my time but my 34 is my first auto. I only got it coz they were so much cheaper than the manual ones to import, and i have everything except a clutch sitting here to convert it... So i was mainly wondering if it was in the tune that made em have less torque. Good to know it's just coz auto's a power sapping, extra heavy pieces of junk. Still dunno why they'd have a different type of LSD, but I also have a manual diff sitting here too :)

I assume the power figures in the brochure I attached would be power at the fly wheel so the manuals must have a better tune or something that gives it the extra torque. Correct me if im wrong.

The diff from the series 1 is Viscous regardless if its a manual or auto.

Its only the series 2 manuals that came with the helical diff.

    • Sounds good.  I don't 100% understand what your getting at here. When you say, "I keep seeing YouTube videos where people have new paint and primer land on the old clearcoat that isn't even dulled down" do you mean this - there is a panel with factory paint, without any prep work, they paint the entire panel with primer, then colour then clear?  If that's what you mean, sure it will "stick" for a year, 2 years, maybe 3 years? Who knows. But at some stage it will flake off and when it does it's going to come off in huge chunks and look horrific.  Of course read your technical data sheet for your paint, but generally speaking, you can apply primer to a scuffed/prepped clear coat. Generally speaking, I wouldn't do this. I would scuff/prep the clear and then lay colour then clear. Adding the primer to these steps just adds cost and time. It will stick to the clear coat provided it has been appropriately scuffed/prepped first.  When you say, "but the new paint is landing on the old clearcoat" I am imagining someone not masking up the car and just letting overspray go wherever it wants. Surely this isn't what you mean?  So I'll assume the following scenario - there is a small scratch. The person manages to somehow fill the scratch and now has a perfectly flat surface. They then spray colour and clear over this small masked off section of the car. Is this what you mean? If this is the case, yes the new paint will eventually flake off in X number of years time.  The easy solution is to scuff/prep all of the paint that hasn't been masked off in the repair area then lay the paint.  So you want to prep the surface, lay primer, then lay filler, then lay primer, then colour, then clear?  Life seems so much simpler if you prep, fill, primer, colour then clear.  There are very few reasons to go to bare metal. Chasing rust is a good example of why you'd go to bare metal.  A simple dent, there is no way in hell I'm going to bare metal for that repair. I've got enough on my plate without creating extra work for myself lol.
