Help On R34 Gtr? Pls Help

[AiikeR34]

Fellow nissan drivers. I have been driving a 200sx s-15 for a while and now am sick of the damn thing. Not that it is a bad drive, it is just that it lacks something. It really cant be described. I recently drove my friends skyline R33 GTS which was fuc#$%^ awsome. I knew what i was missing out on. However i have now been looking at the R34 range espically the GTR range. I just want a stock one but can only get it from an importer. Ther trouble is i have no one i kno who drives the thing. I looked and read a shit load of reviews but they are all from professional experts. So here is the delimma i wanted to kno from anyone out there what it is really like. Obviously there is a damn load of power and that sort of things but what is the driving like? what is the turbo kick in like? however in the quest for these answers i have to ask while driving my 200sx i get a load of people trying me out at the light. It doesnt matter i will get a excel to a calais to a lanos to well u kno what i mean. Does it get worse with a skyline R34 GTR? Pls help me with this situtation.

Regards

Aiike

GTRs are great cars. FULL STOP

It grips to the road very well due to the AWD system. Space wise it'll feel real spacious compared to the S15s.

If you can afford o 34 gtr you wont be dissapointed at all , if you can buy a V-Spec or better still M-Spec or Nur-Spec .

I can assure you you wont leave it stock for long though .

Thre is no comparison with the s15 or gtt for that matter and in the wet you just power on when you would be sliding in the s15 .

A stock R34 GTR is actually a really nice car to drive. Still sounds good but not crazy loud. Stock suspension is nice on the street and the brakes are good.

For whatever reason I rarely ever seem to get people wanting to run me in mine either - but then maybe its because Im never looking for it.

Turbo's come on strong when you put your foot down and pull all the way through to 8,000rpm.

But for example a stock R34 is speed and rev limitted and the stock ECU runs a little rich.

And this is where the GTR gets tough - its easy to modify. We put a stock R34 GTR on a dyno and it made 178rwkw's. Simple exhaust, cam gears, and ecu mods and it was upto 255rwkw's. Then bugger it - we'll add some bigger trubo's, injectors and afm's and wow - 325rwkw's. Now we are saving for a bottom end upgrade.........

They are a great stock car - but difficult to keep that way.

Just because people want to race you does not mean you need to participate

to drive around daily I would prefer a non V Spec as they are more comforatable on our roads.

However the V Spec does have the Carbon Rear Diffuser, the Front Diffuser (which adds to the front lip), the extra read outs on the MFD (exhaust temp and inlet temp) and the harder tuned suspension for more spirited driving amongst other things.

The V-Spec suspension really isn't too bad daily driving. I in the past have daily driven my V-Spec and its nowhere near as bad as your average import with aftermarket full sick suspension. Here are the pros and cons of having an R34 GTR daily driver:

Pros

- Less kids trying to race your car - I don't know why but I just wasn't getting it as much as when I drove the GTSt

- Awesome power whenever you want it

- Grip everywhere, in the rain its especially great

- You get looks everywhere you go

- I dont seem to get any attention from cops ?

- Brakes are amazing

- I dont seem to go through tyres at anywhere near the rate i did in my RWD car

- Price of parts is falling every day, loads of R32 GTRs around make the price of parts that just bolt onto any RB26 fall

- It's a piece of motoring history !

Cons

- You cant park it just anywhere

- You cant see out the back at night due to the spoiler and the stock tint

- It drinks a lot of fuel

- Your girlfriend will be jelous of the time you spend with the car

- No factory warranty

- You wont be able to stop modifying it

Cons

- You wont be able to stop modifying it

Control yourself MAN!!!!!!

It can't be done - even when you run out of $$$ to spend you still find a way to get some more.

They are evil.

if i had the money, i'd buy an r34 gtr straight away!

- Less kids trying to race your car - I don't know why but I just wasn't getting it as much as when I drove the GTSt

that's cos they know they got no chance against the almighty zilla!

However, a GTSt is a little more vulnerable .. especially in stock form.
