Z-tune is nice, but i'd take a Mine's built R34 gtr any day, has been my 'hero' car ever since that episode of hot version with tsuchiya and orido test driving it.

The ultimate response machine

You could always make up some big fakie "Mines" stickers for yours :whistling:

I might as well just drop an LS into it, neither will make it any faster just make me look homo...

;)

Sounds like someone's jelly, don't be jelly Steve I still heart you :P...

But what your saying is you want me to help you put an LS in your 34 and apply the mines stickers :yes:

The R35 is an engineering marvel handles well and insanely quick the gearbox is brilliant. If you looking for a daily driver or something thats quiet and comfortable that the cops wont look at this is the car great bang for buck.

I sold mine to own my 2001 R34 GTR VSpec II :) although not as new or as technologically advanced the 34 has a heap of things the 35 doesnt have.

1. A soul

2. Requires the input of the driver

3. Great manual gearbox

4. An engine bay that doesnt look like a nissan maxima

5. A soundtrack that you just dont get in the 35 (Mine has a T04z with external gate screamer its marvelous :)

6. Plenty of great Jap wheel choices and aftermarket parts.

7. Far cheaper in every area besides fuel :(

My 34 feels similar to a gt3 porsche in the sense that you get a lot of feedback from the car and do not feel detached like you do in the 35.

I love the 35 and will own one again as a daily because in that area its brilliant (if you want a quick daily). Although overall the true heart of a Japanese sportscar was lost with the 35 Im all for innovation although when you build a car with the intentent that a grandma can drive it it shows.

0-100km/h in 2.8sec is fun for scaring people but for the driver no skill. One example went to the drags and got an 11.1 4 times in a row with my 35 nothing I could do differently so went home.

Where as the 34 the difference in skill level and fun at the drags is amazing.

So my advice if your looking for a car that you dont want to modify and thats great on the street a newer the 35 is awesome.

If your after a real drivers car that you can work on and it will be evident the 34 is the go.

      Skyline v36 350GT sedan hunting on idle

      By Robot · Posted

      Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      For race cars, this is one part where I find having the roll cage bar having gone through a hole in the floor better than the build it up on a ledge inside... The Merc I help on, the main hoop ends are marked on the car, and the jack is marked... Jack goes under a few inches and lifts one whole side of the car up... Removes that fight for long slim jacks for race car duties!   My biggest issue for the daily drivers I work on, is my jacks don't go high enough. The jacks start out on a few blocks, jack it up, then start a second jack under it on more blocks, and then I can get an axle stand under it. My axle stands are presently in use, and are nearly fully extended. The car is sitting with barely more than a cm of clearance to get the wheel off the studs! Sarah's Kluger is the same, as it has an ungodly amount of droop available in the suspension and a distinct lack of good jacking points!

      Happy? Yep, my to do list is getting shorter and shorter. Either this light approaching is the end of the tunnel, or I'm about to be hit by a train... Ha ha ha   Also, Duncan isn't that far out of town that you need to make a multi day drive out of it. 😛
