Hi All,

While cleaning out the boot in the GTR a few days ago, in the area where the jack is, I found a bag with Japanese documents in it including the original owners manual.

Was hoping someone on here that owns an R34 GTR and has the full set of books, leather case etc could please post a picture of what they look like so I know whats there and whats missing.

Have already been to Nissan direct and unfortunately it appears they dont have a record of, or sell the books.

Thanks.

From the research of info I've been able to find online, the Navigation book comes with BNR34s that have a C code for digit 17 of the model number (there might be other codes too). Most seem to have - on their model code. I've been a fair bit of looking at model codes from the Nissan Fast request thread and randomly entering VINs into Nissan Fast and it seems fairly rare to have the SatNav. I've been able to find out what AAJCD means from a Japanese friend who translated them for me, but not any of the codes (although some are in English for later VINs if I remember correctly). If you enter check your model code (I can do that if you want - just give me the VIN) and see if there is a C for 17 should tell you if that book came with your car. Never seen anything about a leather cover.

My friend says:

14A Super fine coat

15A Rear wiper + UV protection + prevention of heat entering

16J Glove compartment light, remote entry, trunk lid

17C TV function, navigator

18D Rear fog light

Regards,

Mark

Wondered if there was a leather folder for everything, remember seeing them once but not sure?

I didn't get the leather satchel either Chris, but the Nismo suede black one is still obtainable.

Haha Mark. Iwantar34gtr has been looking to buy these books for ages and is lucky to be able to find them in his boot.

Did they match up to your kms?

+1 surely a car as clean as yours purchased from a reputable dealer such as extreme motorsports would have genuine kms. Is it true they have a real s-tune?

Yeah, no unwelcome surprises mate.

Was doing a clean up of the cupboard the other day and saw my partners S15 log book with original leather folder etc.

Curious to see your leather folder as wondering if they are the same.

:no:

Of course im not serious Tezza , i know how hard the books are to come by

i got mine through a good mate in Japan

You're not kidding, I looked everywhere for a replacement owners manual.

I already had the original hard cover dealer brochure and always wanted the rest of the books to compliment it.

Wouldnt mind trying to source a better condition service book though as the condition of mine is not great, however still better than nothing.

    • Cheers. Skyline is back on the menu, can’t get rid of it. It’s like a child you don’t want, or herpes 
    • I got back to Japan in January and was keen to get back on track as quickly as possible. Europe is god-awful for track accessibility (by comparison), so I picked up a first-gen GT86 in December just to have something I could jump into right away. The Skyline came over in a container this time and landed in early January. It was a bit battered after Europe, though—I refused to do anything beyond essential upkeep while it was over there. The clutch master cylinder gave out, and so did the power steering. I didn’t even bother changing the oil; it was the same stuff that went in just before I left Japan the first time. Naughty. Power steering parts would’ve cost double with shipping and taxes, so knowing I’d be heading back to Japan, I just postponed it and powered through the arm workout. It took a solid three months to get the car back on the road. Registration was a nightmare this time around. There were a bunch of BS fees to navigate, and sourcing parts was a headache. I needed stock seats for shaken, mistakenly blew 34k JPY on some ENR34 seats—which, of course, didn’t fit—then ended up having the car’s technical sheet amended to register it as a two-seater with the Brides. Then there’s the GT86. Amazing car. Does everything I want it to do. Parts are cheap, easy to find, and I don’t care what anyone says—it’s super rewarding to drive. I’ve done a few basic mods: diff ratio, coilovers, discs, pads, seat, etc. It already had a new exhaust manifold and the 180kph limiter removed, so I assume it’s running some kind of map. I’ve just been thrashing it at the track non-stop—mostly Fuji Speedway now, since I need something with higher speed after all that autobahn time. The wheels on the R34 always pissed me off—too big, and it was a nightmare getting tires to fit properly under the arches. So I threw in the towel and bought something that fits better. Looks way cleaner too (at least to me)—less hotboy, less attention-seeking. Still an R34, though. Now for future plans. There are a few things still outstanding with the car. First up, the rear subframe needs an overhaul—that’s priority one. Next, I need to figure out an engine rebuild plan. No timeline yet, but I want to keep it economical—not cutting corners, just not throwing tens of thousands at a mechanic I can barely communicate with. And finally, paint. Plus a bit of tidying up here and there.  
    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
