there also the little thing about "involvement with a manual box" i know new double clutches are stupid quick / fast and is the way of the future. but not sure about pleasure of driving aspect.

Instant shifts > driveing pleasure :yes:

yeah...

I like the rawness of the RB26 with the manual shifting... for the R35, power is continuous and smooth but it feels very much like an auto trans to me..

Second this.

I was thinking about the 100k 400R sold couple of years ago and try working out how much will it cost to do something similiar. The cost will be close to 50k itself on top of the 33 GTR price (back then would be like 30k?). So to pay an extra 20k for the "limited" factor and no worries about parts/mods falling apart from human error, its not a bad buy really.

I would buy neither.......I would find and buy a 400R.

100%

that would be the best R34 GTR :yes:

Both cars above are fully done up from factory and you dont have to worry about the HKS stroker. That said, if you're gonna throw in a stroker kit, you're better off getting a Vspec. Why waste the money on a limited edition when you're not keeping the "limited" component?

If money wasnt a probably, I'll still take the 34 over the 35 any day because the shape of the 35 never really worked for me. And if money really isnt an issue, GT 2 or GT3 for sure. Purpose built and I like the fancy colours they come with!

z tune goes without saying.

wonder if they will do a ztune 35?

with a proper manual box?

also, always wanted to see a lap battle between ztune and mines 34....

actually the R35 comes with a "proper" manual box... the supposed "auto" trans is not like the ones we see in camrys or any other sedans. The auto part is just the computer doing the "clutch in clutch out" for u. So will they do a Z Tune R35? i wouldnt keep my hopes up. Besides, wasnt the Z tune also meant to commemorate the R34 cos they were ending production? much like the Spirit R for the Rx7 FD3S

thats a very good sensible point.... do u get the base spec BNR34 and mod it or get a V Spec II Nur and do the same... I'd say, if the BNR34 was a childhood dream/passion then the latter. why? cos u'd probably never sell it... plus "V Spec II nur" sounds really nice :D (Could always keep the "limited" components in a shed LOL)

same here... the shape of the R35 with all its fancy electronics doesnt work for me..

If $$$ was no problem why would anyone care about the weight....still less than a R35.

For the 400Rs that are still running around the world plus the amount of work done to them from factory it can weigh as much as the Moon for all care....to me its a collectors car to be driven on special occasions.....cus' its a love for Skylines.

I meant one with a pedal clutch and h pattern.

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
