R34 Vs R35 - Not School Holidays Yet, This Is Not What You Think.


Recommended Posts

You can drive the R35 in full manual of the paddle shifts like a manual car, just don't have a clutch.

If I was buying a car around the price of a used r35 for street use only I would be getting a C6 Corvette Z06 or a Dodge Viper. Looks like a super car sounds great and makes you smile when you put your foot down. both are easy to maintain and service yourself unlike a Ferrari 360 that is in that price range.

I feel this is very much a chalk vs cheese question.

the cars involved crossover what i would regard as a pretty important few years in Auto development.

Tbh I think it comes down to......how long do you plan on keeping it??

until it dies........ go the 34

for a bit and then move on ......R35

...I struggle to see how anyone can compare a camaro to an R35.......that really blows my mind ..... go by a VF GTS if you want a Camaro........ essentially the same chassis as I understand it . Its the import costs that put it in the same bracket. .... the vette on the other hand... :)


to me the R34 is a very good balance of driving feel with just the right amount of electronics R35 feels like it can turn anyone into a track superstar (maybe not the case but its how it feels to me )

especially if its just a weekender...... buy a R34 and sink the 30-40k price difference into it. Personally out of my weekender I want an animal.....not comfortable....

ESPECIALLY if its your dream car ( or has been for a period of time.

R34 induction noise is better than r35? You need to get some gotboost intakes and big green filters on your r35 mine sound like their sucking harder than a Bangkok hooker

This is Sig worthy!!!!!!

Is it an instant shift? I've driven a few paddle shifters and they vary widely, when I drove the 35 yers ago it was manual only mode as it was a privately owned car and had only travelled a few hundred k's.

I'm not into Corvette's, I'd love to drive one for a weekend but would not shell out my $$ to own one - unless it was a ZR1,,,

I would definitely be keeping it for quite some time, but that doesn't make me lean one way or the other, it's just a reflection of my financial decision making process. I love cars, but have a hard time justifying what nice ones really cost so I sit on them for a while when I have them.

You've touched on what I think some of the internal struggle is, the 34 was my pinup car for so long. I'd have been stoked to have had a 99 non v-spec in any colour/condition. In a few years though, when I've taken car eof "business" and can think about pleasure, I have the option of a really nice 34, or an older model 35. Any car guy will tell you it's hard to justify dropping good money on a given car when you know there's another that is almost in-arguably better in every way.

I'm biased here, but I haven't heard a 35 sound as a good as a 33/34 yet (Exhaust or Induction), but I've only been hearing 35s through YouTube lately and I've only driven a stock one.

Are you in Sydney, welcome to listen to mine at WOT full Exhuast decatted... Might have to change your mind. The VR38 sounds so tough and the best thing is that throw it in auto mode and keep the revs low and it's still so quiet to drive around and not draw too much negative attention to yourself.

If I was in your situation, I'd get a 35 GTR over a 34 without question.

The R34 GTR is the top of the line offering of the R34 platform, the R35 GTR is a designed from scratch Supercar

If you ever go sick of it, I'm sure there would be a mountain of R34 GTR + cash your way swaps on offer!

The R32,R33,R34 were effectively supercars for their day.

But i also agree i would get a 35 over the 34.

Yeah, without a doubt any GTR is a sensational car,

Good point in that if I wanted to part ways it likely wouldn't be that hard to get an R34 swap.

Interestingly enough the auction prices in Japan for 34 GTR's is still quite high, comparable with the 35 GTR - so in terms of a car from an investment point of view the 34 is a good option.

In regard to BNR34 values, it depends on which model you lock onto.

Lower end models have come down a bit. V-spec II has remained about the same. And anything with a 24U block has gone up. Albeit assuming that they're high quality items.

And terry keeps refusing my offer for a swap> His 34 for my 32....

That's fair isn't it??? :whistling:

You've won a free hypnotherapy session that'll convince you that you're happy with what you've got!

Hehe...

If I was to go for an R34 the goal would be a VS2, not for resale value but because it's the sexiest to me.

It was for me too. Sexiest that is!

...and it has gone up in value at each sale to!

I'm yet to see a 35 which punches as hard in the visual department as a nicely done 34. That thing looks like it's basically sitting there waiting for you to get closer. As soon as your in range, it'll pounce, beat the living shit out of you, chew you up, spit to out then f**k off in a 4 wheel induced cloud of tyre smoke leaving all kinds of impossible lines behind it.

I've a BNR34 and I've sat in a R35...

the feel is different. To me, the BNR34 is a childhood dream... the involvement of driver and car. R35 is fast...but to me, thats it. Its like being chauffeured around in a fast car.

did someone say school holidays?

Im just here to tell you you're all wrong

also did you know that R35 GTR rear brakepads are the same as a Nissan Xtrail....and no not the new one

So y'all might as well buy an X-trail

    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
