yeah, the 34 is a bit of a soft car next to a 31. I will be giving my GTR to my grandma to tootle around in once I get accustomed to the power of the 31.

So since mine is only the GTT I guess I should drop it off at a donations bin then, not even my grandma would lift an eye for it.

:confused:

hahaha, mark is a bit touchy as it didn't quite go to plan today...

B-man you are right on track mate. the 32 is already quite a step up from the 33. a nice 31 four door will be another quantam leap over the 32.

After reading this thread, I think I have been converted. Fatz, I've seen you drift at Oran, and it's crazy what your r31 can do.

I've always wanted to take the 33 out, but too worried about crashing/denting/breaking it. I guess this is the same as you beer baron?

Just a few questions though. I've looked over on carsales, and it seems that a 5speed 31 with the 3 L motor is about 2.5k. Is this about right?

How come all you guys get them for like 1K? Let us in on the secret to cheap r31s.hehehe.

2 things will get you a cheap 31.

1. you need to be in the right place at the right time.

2. it will be a heap of shit.

$2.5K for a manual 31 is alright as long is it's:

1. got rego

2. not f**ked

3. not previously owned by Fatz, Mark, me or anyone that they know.

4. can rip a burnout (test this before you buy).

happy motoring. I will probably sell my 31 soon as I want to buy another car. but unfortunately I've already started spending money on it. also, just be aware that $2.5K might not get you are car that is identical to Fatz's... it might miss out on a few of the bits he has like: being a coupe, have an RB26, having a big single, GTR brakes etc etc...

31 will not let you down though. plus the 4 doors are a thinking mans skyline. pure class.

the ones we buy for cheep are $hitboxes

i originally paid $5,100 for my silhouette. it was MINT, with 136,000 on the clock.

i thrashed it at skidpans, at oran park, at wakefield, everywhere. and it just asked for more. best part of the rb30 is you cannot break it.

i say buy one if you wanna have fun without worrying bout hurting a really special car.

Oh yeah, I know for sure it'll be an absolute 5hitbox . I just don't wanna hurt my car on the track, so I wanna buy a paddock basher.

Fatz/Mark... show me the way. hahahhaa

Fellars, I'm not expecting much from the 31, but does it actually have enough power to rip a burnout?

I think most working men have 2 doors (they are called utes!)

      R34 GTR Speedo Drive , sensor type ?

      By Butters · Posted

      Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
