Do a search my friend there was a thread not long ago comapring the series one to series two R34's. Off the top of my head the R34 came out in 1998 and the series 2 came out in late 2000??? someone please correct me if im wrong.

The major differences between a GTT and GTR are 4WD bigger engine, extra turbo etc.

Series 1 came out in May/April '98 - The series 2 in Aug 2000

The difference's are mainly cosmetic (new front bar, darker wheels and GTR coloured interior) although the S2 has a little extra torque.

GTR wing - Adjustable and a little taller

GTT wing - Non adjustable sits lower with different tip design.

Hello All,

I have the same question as well. I am in the process of buying a GT-t from Japan (hopefully 2000 Series I or II) and have had some mixed responses from people when I have asked them how the car drives.

Haven taken one for a test drive I can say with some confidence that the acceleration of a GT-t is very similar to that of the old 185kW 5-litre V8's that Holden used to use before the 5.7-litre came along.

It does tend to come on boost a little later when compared to the R33 GTs but this is something you can get used to by either using the gearbox a little more intelligently or buying a good AM boost controller.

All in all its a good little car with exceptional value for money when you compare it to anything that is vaguely equivilant on the Australian market.

Umm i find that my stock R34 GT-t eats even brand new SS commodores. So i don't know how you'd think the old aussie made v8 is comparable to the rb25det neo engine. With the boost thing it's not bad really theres plenty of torque down low compared to the old non neo engines found in the r33's. So yeah. The comment about the power being like the old 5 litre engine though has left me dazzled.

Had mine for a year. Absolutely love it and very reliable. Used as a daily driver that sees about 50km a day. Basic mods and making ~200rwkw which I think is plenty for a daily driver. Haven't had a chance to run down the strip yet, but would like to soon.

Have only had some very minor issues and car has cost me less to run than my old liberty that liked to split cv boot seals every few months.

Minor issues so far:

*Blown park lights - Who cares when the replacement globes cost $1

* Climate control not working - Internal sensor was disconnected when stereo was fitted. Easy fix.

*Transmission went into safety cut out mode once - Not sure what caused this but it hasn't happened since.

For a manual like you specified you could pay anywhere from high 20s upto almost 40 depending on condition and mods. If you searched around you could probably find a very nice example in the lower range of that bracket.

Yeah that english.auto Website is pretty handy for a general guide to the auction prices. It even has some stats based on prices for diff colour choices etc....

But generally how much you pay is directly related to how many km a car has done. i.e. >80,000km and you are guaranteed a bargain

These two sites are archived from Nissan in Japan and are pretty interesting despite the crappy translation;

Series 1: May '98-August '00

Good luck! Think i'm going with the Series 2, only because I want a newer car. There seems to be minimal difference between the two;

Except front bumper, badge location, front grille to name a few.

Sure are rare! This is the only other one I've ever seen:

http://www.prestigemotorsport.com.au/au/st...sp?StockID=2880

which sold for around $37k + tyres, rego and stamp duty

Yeah series 2 front bars aren't as sweet as S1's

That's why i went for the Nismo Aero front bar...looks a lot tougher

    • Jack the back of the car up, pull that wheel off, pull that sensor out, and put a bore scope into the hole to inspect the outer casing, see if anything looks damaged before you pull the whole thing apart.
    • Ergh... So I pulled the speed sensor out again and the tip was shiny so I think it's rubbing the bearing. The bearing contains the magnets for the speed sensor so I think when the first sensor broke it damaged the magnet ring on the bearing.  This is just a Google image, but there is a hole going to the bearing. So when the tip broke off the old sensor I'm guessing it fouled the bearing... As the magnet is only protected by a plastic cover it would be easy to damage it. So I guess I'm doing a bearing again.   
    • My thinking is that if the O2 sensor is shot then your entire above described experience is pure placebo.
    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol
