Yes... top gear or 5th gear... I don't remember. They reviewed the R32 GTR definately, and i'm sure they did the R34 at some stage.

I also have a file called "1000hp Nissan Skyline GT-R R33 Tuned by JUN Tested by Jeremy Clarkson.avi" which was quite good. Not much info on the specs, but he was amazed.

There have been several that I can remember.

Jeremy Clarkson reviewed the R32 on an episode of Motorworld once. The Japan episode (obviously). It's not top gear, but it's the same guy so who cares. Some fat guy from Top Gear had a buyers guide on the R32, R33 and R34 skylines. Jeremy Clarkson reviewed the R34 on Top Gear. Tiff Needel reviewed the R34 on Fifth Gear. Jeremy Clarkson drove a 1000hp R33 on one of his DVDs. CAn't think of any others off the top of my head. All of these are available on file sharing programs such as Kazaa, Emule etc. and they are highly likely able to be found as torrents. Also try Google videos.

THere will be something to do with an R34 at some point in the current season as there was footage of one in the preview at the start of the first episode.

The R32 GTR was reviewed in Top Gear Magazine back in 92. I know because it was my dad's GTR that Jeremy Clarkson reviewed. It was the first R32 GTR to be imported and reviewed in the UK and was imported by Middlehurst motorsport of which Andy Middlehurst raced an R32 GTR in the Saloon car championships and received major sponsership by Oracle because my dad was working for Oracle in the UK at the time....Just some useless information for you :)

      Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By Duncan · Posted

      Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
