“Bnr34 value” Your thoughts on this topic

[Bnr34RME]

Thank you~ seems the prices are pretty standard all over.

maybe JP is still on the cheaper side by a tad, 148-152per L for high octane.

[BK]

Is that yen ? As that is about $1.95 AU so similar. I'm in central Australia so fuel is expensive, but by the look of it even BP 98 at cheapest is $1.60 in Sydney.

[Bnr34RME]

Yeah its in yen,  so probably close to 1.98aud

[kimbod]

Good choice. You got the right one. Your fuel is a higher octane than most of ours. You have a 100 RON don't you at the bowser. Some of our finished product is source out of Japan, though mostly Singapore Have fun in your car

[Bnr34RME]

Thank you,

absolutely love the car, too bad Japan is so humid, gotta do some rust protection work before the wet season next year. 
I am yet to see a museum grade one yet with 0 spec of surface rust anywhere in japan so far unless they have been painted over or maybe I am looking too hard haha.

Costco at the Crossroads NSW, 98 RON is $1.50/L

Sweet ride mate, enjoy.

Very nice car, congrats for buying one! Must have been a hard choice.. :)

Installed some new goodies today,

New pedal set, thought the Vspec2 ones look good and the rubber ones on mine looked a bit dull.
After 2 hours...what an absolute pain in the a** it was to get the clutch pedal on... oh my god... final result looks great though, sorry for the Dark pics, 

Merry Christmas!

I have a quick question for someone who might know,

I upgraded my ride from the 32 GTR which i thought and imagined to have more interior rattles because it is older than the 34.

To my surprise, the 34 seems a lot more noisier compared to the 32, maybe Nissan’s way of cutting cost happened mostly on the interior design and parts? Would you agree?

one specific noice that is starting to annoy me comes somewhere in the left hand side around the left dash area, if the road is even a little bit bumpy, seems to make a plastic tapping noise, 

I ripped out the glovebox to see if there was anything loose but couldn’t find anything out of place so I asked a mate who seems to have the same noise in the same place and he was told that that is where the abs unit sits and that is the cause of the noise,

do you guys think this is true?

Don't agree. My 34 GTR has no rattles or squeaks and is a tight as a drum. If i didn't have an exhaust and cams it would sound just like my 2013 CX5, quiet as a mouse.

You might have a few gremlins to sort out.

[Bnr34RME]

i see, thanks for the input.

I will have to check it out over time

 

[joshuaho96]

Check the glove box for any plastic pieces that are relatively loosely held in place. That can often be the source of rattles.

[GTSBoy]

The dashboard attachment to the firewall can move a little and squeak/rattle. Any and all of the HVAC ductwork can get dislodged and rattle. Any fool how has just thrown wiring up under the dash without securing it (stereo, gauges, etc) will cause rattles. The front suspension bushes can make noise that sounds like it's coming from under the dash (because it's effectively all the same steelwork). The list goes on and on.

And R34 are at least as well built as R32, and both are only as well built as any other mass produced Jap car from the era - which is good but not great.

Hi guys,

Long time no post, hope everyone is going through covid ok still enjoying their rides.

I have done some few very minor mods to share and have a quick question regarding some future mods I will be doing and would really like your opinions.

1. First my aircon panel seemed a bit dim so I DIY’d it with LED which was a fun exercise.

2. Second, I am waiting for my sexy custom headlights being made up.

3. Next in the list will be the tail light upgrade.

4. I purchased the genuine Nismo Z-tune fenders which were quite hard to come by even in Japan and will install once I choose the right bonnet upgrade.

***Question****
 

Im trying to choose between a genuine V-spec2 carbon hood (the one with the single Naca duct) or the Nismo R-tune bonnet as my car already has the Nismo R-tune air cleaner duct that the previous owner installed already.

But not sure which one to get especially  If the R-tune bonnet with be a pain in the a*** to keep water out during a carwash, does anyone know if this bonnet can keep water out? The official description on the website says that it can stop rain but now sure how to even attempt to clean it without getting a lot of water in the engine bay.

please let me know your thoughts / opinions and information about the bonnets so I can choose between the two.

Look forward to your opinions!

 

 

[niZmO_Man]

Don't the genuine S/R tune bonnets have water channels?

[Bnr34RME]

Not sure about water channels, there’s nothing on the description about it that I can find

[Bnr34RME]

These Z-tune fenders were really hard to come by as I wanted genuine, looks good though, can’t wait to put them on but waiting to choose the right bonnet so I can get it painted together.

[UWISSH!]

I can’t believe you are going to put those hideous headlights on an r34gtr

[Bnr34RME]

Guess it’s not for everyone, don’t care as long as I enjoy it right? Lol

[GoHashiriya]

Oooo, cool! nice car. Glad to see you're keeping hold of this. Where in JP are you based?
