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


Recommended Posts

I like white Rs.

I think if I had looked around instead of buying the first R I saw I would have got white or Midnight Blue, not black , it is a shit to keep clean :/

Dark is not too bad, had a darkish blue 350GT, looked great and hardly noticed the dirt, BUT BLACK is a nightmare . Shit leave it in the garage for a few days and it looks shit. I made a cover setup so I did not have to wash it every time someone gave it a dirty look :yes: Photo

But clean they look great :yes:

To someone who used to get down on his hands and knees to blow the excess water out of the wheel nuts, it's horror.

I am not that bad now, but not saying I couldn't be that bad again with another GT-R =\

Call me crazy but i was in a financial position to purchase any R chasis car 32-35. I went with the 32 as it is my fav GT-R out of the bunch, iam now doing a 3L bottom end conversion with a Nitto 3.2 stroker. It all comes down to personal preference. The 35R is miles ahead of any BNR but i dont like it because it is auto and (IMO) ugly as fuark.. Get what ever makes you happy.

To be honest, the more I think about it, the more I lean towards the 34, purely for connection reasons. I realise it's substantially less powerful/refined/capable etc but that's not what the purchase is about.

That said, when it happens I will definitely test both and the missus has also stressed that she feels I should test some other things also - I have a feeling she would much rather me with a 4 door, possibly something Euro and I'll test those 2 but ultimately I just want another GT-R.

    • Jack the back of the car up, pull that wheel off, pull that sensor out, and put a bore scope into the hole to inspect the outer casing, see if anything looks damaged before you pull the whole thing apart.
    • Ergh... So I pulled the speed sensor out again and the tip was shiny so I think it's rubbing the bearing. The bearing contains the magnets for the speed sensor so I think when the first sensor broke it damaged the magnet ring on the bearing.  This is just a Google image, but there is a hole going to the bearing. So when the tip broke off the old sensor I'm guessing it fouled the bearing... As the magnet is only protected by a plastic cover it would be easy to damage it. So I guess I'm doing a bearing again.   
    • My thinking is that if the O2 sensor is shot then your entire above described experience is pure placebo.
    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol
