What parts does R34 share with other Nissan of its era.

Well,  title says it all pretty much.  

I'm planning on taking one R34 gtt to Europe.  Since Europe has all those stupid regulations (I.e you have to have e4 tag on every light the car has and other weird stuff) I was wondering how many parts can I "borrow" from European Nissans to make my car legal there. 

Main things I'm concerned about are the lights (all of them,  up to number plates) and seatbelts (rear as well). But would like to know about other parts as well.

300z is something,  that can be found in Europe. Maybe some parts from that car match the R34? 

 

Sorry,  if this has been discussed already.  I found a topic about matching parts across different skylines or Skyline vs 300z  but nothing on Skyline vs other "regular" Nissans. 

Thank you in advance!

Don't like your chances. can you not register it as a special interest vehicle or such like? I know there are Skylines and Stageas in Europe. Maybe you are worrying too much.

Whereabouts in Europe mate? From the little that I've read there's absolutely no chance running anything modified in Belgium for instance, but Poland for example is a different story.

If you are taking the car anyway don't go looking for trouble just register it and start worrying if they take exception to anything - you could go replacing stuff for nothing or all the wrong things. Maybe ask around if there is any places more tolerant than others...

If Estonia is anything like Finland (and I believe Germany too) they do annual roadworthy testing. Not bad if you have a stock car but pretty hopeless if you do...

Could you not just go to the authorities with the make and model and spec sheet, and get some advice before buying?

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
