Does Anybody Know This 34 Gtr From Vic?

To me they go crazy, full boost is as 4k rpm, they are running just past 17psi. Engine isn't built but does have cams - it also helps that Racepace has been servicing it since it was imported (2008).

Well today was first time I took it to red line, safe to say legs were shaking for hours later because of the adrenalin haha.

One thing im trying to figure out is the space between the window seal (think thats where the window deflector goes?) there is a gap is that normal and safe if its raining? Been trying to search the forums with no luck

Yea when i picked up the car from Racepace it has potential to do a lot more, just needs a tune. But think this is plenty for many months to come haha

I see and yes cams do help.

First time red line is always a good experience Haha!

Got a photo of the space between the window? I'd say it's normal like what Hadouken said... As long as the window goes all the way up.

Yeah Racepace will do you well, they know the Power FC really well and should re-tune it up nicely for you.

When I get home ill take a photo for you to have a look. The window seals are fine and window goes up. This is where the window seal connects to the roof of the car (think thats where the window deflector should come in)

With 356kw at all fours thats plenty for a while to come, don't think she will be needing anything more haha

I remember seeing a thread about this but after hours of searching I can't find it. I'm presuming its safe as any water that comes through will run down by the doors? But still not sure - any tips would help out.

Car is going great, I guess Ill start a thread and keep people updated with the small things I do. But first things first

For it's age, it can happen... I'd say the seal has just bubbled up due to the heat / sun.

Worst case, just re-order the rubber strip and replace it.

Nice custom plates, I'd assume M = Milan and BR34 = BNR34.

Ah ok, would you have any idea what that part is called?

Spot on on the plates haha

So the part is called the "Weather Strip Retainer".

I believe this is the part, however there are two and I'm not sure if it just the metal bracket, or do you get the metal bracket and the black seal on top:

http://www.rhdjapan.com/nissan-oem-right-side-weather-strip-retainer-r34-2dr.html

The biggest problem I have is that I can't see what actually comes with that item.

Does anybody have a company where they can order their oem parts from?

Thanks Odium,

Im trying to fix her up slowly bit by bit. Just need to make sure that this is the correct part as that came up at AUD434 which is quite pricey. Also I think that is just the front retainer - there is also the rear.

Any chance somebody knows what the actual rubber piece number is?

'll take some more photos so people understand what I'm talking about.

Wonder if there are any Nissan Dealerships which can order the parts for you? hmm

Just a quick note I've searched everywhere on the forums and there is no mention of the part for the 34Gtr, just the 32 as they have a clip on. Where as the 34 has screws that hold the bracket up together with the plasic.

You could order it for Nissan AUS or just ask Racepace as they can easily source parts.

Thanks mate,

Will be posting things I do to this car bit by bit. She is in good shape, just needs that little bit of extra bits and pieces but its only cosmetics no rush I guess.

Will be sure to pop down the next SAU meet

  • 4 weeks later...
  • 1 month later...

Just to give an update on the current status of the GTR.

I have to admit its probably one of the best decision I've ever made in my life. Its very fun to drive but what is especially interesting is when people are giving you the look "cmon man.......punch it please".

Car is very healthy so no real modifications were done since I got it. Ill post some pictures so you can see the before and after.

Fixed/Replaced:

- MDF Screen (had to do a lot of precise peeling but came out like new - thanks to whoever made the tutorial on here)

- Installed an Aus stereo and made the wiring nice and neat behind the dash

- Removed the nismo tie rods and camber arms as they arent adjustable, replaced with cusco so car goes 100% straight (was pulling very slightly to the left)

- Have a friend who does detailing who polished off the headlights, really good job. Will be detailing the rest of the car in a few weeks

Apart from that its very enjoyable to ride things I need to get are:

- Side skirts and rear pods, have a really good deal which are made up for fibreglass will be buying them on wednesday as its so hard to find oem

- Detail the car

- Perhaps swap over my bronze 19" te37 with a pair of 18"

- Swap exhaust for something a little bit quieter as this is very loud as its a 3.5" straight through, kinda needed for the 360atw tune (its a kakimoto)

    • Euros are shitboxes man. My next car going to be a Lexus or Hyundai.
    • Maybe I used the wrong sandwich plate as well. Used one piece instead of two piece.  
    • Y'know what, after reading a topic on a 360kw build using a nistune (who ended up going LINK), im now considering a LINK over a nistune. The engine protection alone would probably be worth it. And id like to learn to tune so would be nice to have that safe guard. Which means i probably wont need a boost controller then, or the R35 MAF.  Becoming a bit of a blog now but oh wells. As mentioned previously, the goal is around 300kw, for a daily driver. Will be looking at fitting a highflow turbo or similar (something that doesnt require downpipes, manifolds etc to be changed out) when the current stock gives out or the money for it is there. 
    • Thanks guys. Are you meant to tighten the converter bolts through the starter motor hole? Think my plate between gearbox and engine is one piece. Im heading up there tomorrow.
    • Picked my tailshaft up yesterday arv!! Test fit it and because they've gone to a ford centre bearing and CV I had to modify the mounting bracket a little bit. 5mm of each side and she went up into position and fits well. It has a 1350 uni and flange on the gearbox end so it should be plenty strong!  Got stuck in this morning and started on the wiring mess. Cut out all the wires not required that go to the body connector and cut the engine harness out. Need to go through and work out which ones I need to keep and rewire into the new ecu. Should save a small amount of weight as well. I'd love to get in and rip the dash and everything out to completely remove wiring but cbf.  Next up was the power harness for alternator, starter etc. It has a few connectors from factory that run out of it. Cut it all apart and removed what was no longer required and put some new corro and taped it all back up and bolted it all back into place.  After that I worked out where I can mount the new flex sensor. Found a couple of factory bolt holes and drilled a new hole on the bracket to suit. Need to go get a few fittings and adapters tomorrow so I can keep going.
