Yeah the GTR is pretty crazy. Auto suspension adjusting. It also has RWD function (AWD only initiates when traction is lost this is in the 2012^ models I believe - I tried researching into this - not much is said. I notice in pre 2012 models that salesmen and reviewers were calling it an AWD but from 2012+ they started explaining the function of it's RWD/AWD a lot more indepth and openly). The balance of the car is perfect to say the least. Everything on that car was designed for a purpose.

The graphic work is to hide the aero designs before the release - I'm sure it serves multiple purposes such as 3D design work but it's mainly to hide the "look" of the car until it's released. Which is why there was a huge following when the R35 N1 was leaked a day before the Tokyo motor show - it didn't have the paint work so all lines were able to be seen.

Unreliable gadgetry. post-89755-0-07734200-1384915227_thumb.jpg A top fueller goes 0-400 in 4 seconds, on a sht run, no traction control.

After watching that episode of Top Gear with the 959 and the F40..... that explains it perfectly; im an F40 guy, just the bare essentials, the driver is traction control and abs. Pure driving.

I wish that there were more cars that followed the F40 philosophy.

Agree entirely.

A top fueler needs a rebuild every meet, weighs half as much, has tyre 4x the size and isnt offered with a warranty

Does anyone happen to know how hard it is to get a windscreen for an R34?
Mine has a crack and i think i might get it fixed before it goes in... can i reuse the original trim or can you get those as well?

shouldnt be too hard.

I believe most of the companies can get an aftermarket one.

and they should replace the seal also.

Yeah sweet, i assumed glass would be easy enough to find. I was more worried about the trim and a possible 10 week wait or something.
Might give them a call today.
Thanks fellahs.

    • Thank you, 100% the intent. New coils were due and the 17" sixers look/feel loads better than the stock wheels. The aero options are so spot on.   Thanks for the warm welcome, all!
    • 98 r34 gtt Been rocking my latest setup and car running like never before. Have put a good 200 miles on it since all the latest changes and additions. everything is dialed in and have been driving it a bunch.   However, all a sudden last weekend as soon as I pushed throttle passed 4k and the engine stumbles, (slow or fast acceleration) hesitates and doesn’t go above 4100 or so, like a misfire. Everything else seems fine. I had a “good” set of coil packs that I removed from car when I first got it when I changed them over to new coils. I swapped out current ones for those, but no change. I also changed the plugs, no change. Seems to rev over 4 when out of gear with no load just fine no “misfire”, but as soon as its in gear with a load of any kind, it “misfires” as soon as rpm drop back below 4 k it runs perfectly, smooth, starts, restarts and drives fine as long as I keep it below 4 k while in gear. All readings look fine, no CEL   Any idea as to what could all a sudden cause an issue when pushing rpms passed 4 k?
    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.
