Yeah have seen couple of pics of it and it looks amazing. Have you considered importing? I went thru J-Spec they are really good you just tell em what you want, budget and they start looking only extra fee is 1200 on top of total car price. But a good service

A V-Spec II NUR just went through auction in Japan with 338,000 kms on it, the price? 7,000,000 JPY which is roughly $88,900 AUD!

Get a nice GT-R while you still can...

See my above post, importing is getting expensive now that North America and the Middle East are interested in these cars.

You can probably find a clean car already in the country for less than importing one yourself from Ja-pan.

WTF? man thats crazy, so R35's should start dropping then?

WTF? man thats crazy, so R35's should start dropping then?

R35s have been dropping for a few years now.

There are a few things to remember -

- The R34 was the rarest of the modern GT-Rs, there were significantly less of them made than the R32 and R33.

- The R34 had a few different model varients (like the V-Spec II NUR, N1 and M-Spec) which had reasonable changes over a normal R34 making them more desirable over a normal model than say an R33 GT-R LM is over a normal R33 GT-R.

- Americans are starting to purchase GT-Rs years before they are eligible to import into the USA and storing them meaning demand is greater and whilst supply remains the same, if not smaller. (There are certainly less stock ones going through auction in Japan each passing year).

- As of next year the R35 will be 10 years old and still in production (which I quite frankly think is lazy on Nissan's behalf, we deserve an R36 already)! Nissan hasn't had a production run on a GT-R even close to 10 years, ever. Couple that with the fact that the R35 was an international release (available in places brand new like the USA and Australia) where as the R34 was Japan only. There are a bucket load more 35s than 34s out there which means they are easier than ever to get your hands on one forcing market pricing down rather than up like the R34.

Haha :P

I've now been around the scene long enough and know enough people to know what's going on, but it's all common sense really.

As awesome and fast as an R35 would be, I'd take a nice R34 every day of the week. IMO they are the best looking Skyline/GT-R and will always have that bedroom poster/hero status. I think the smile factor of driving an RB powered R34 GT-R is where its at.

And here I thought you only knew about shoes ;)

    • So for the wide band is a Bosch 4.9 correct for the Link G4+ along with a Can bus? Just get the Link gear or is generic ok too? Eg here: LINK LINK DIGITAL WIDEBAND CAN MODULE WITH BOSCH 4.9 SENSOR : KYP Performance House  
    • Bit difficult to follow. Have a look below and see what the standard R32 layout was like. Note there was a restrictor in place immediately before "turbocharged pressure control solenoid" that, if removed, magically got you 1 bar boost.
    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?
