I'm bored, just done a quick google search and found this: Abu Dhabi r35 police car i like the logo on behind the rear quarter panel: we ensure your safety.. in the fastest way

if you can't beat them --> join them. Japan was using the r34 gtr's as squad units for a while

r34's have an inline six engine stock. And yes, you could be damaging your engine by driving it with a heavy vibration.You most likely have a misfiring cylinder. Replace the spark plugs, if that doesn't fix it, take it to a mechanic.

Difference Between R34Gtr, Vspec & Vspec Ii !
wedge_r34gtr replied to wlin88's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
Added a few things to the list. V-Spec over Standard GT-R has * front splitter and diffuser * rear carbon diffuser * lower stiffer suspension * Additonal sensors on mfd V-Spec II over V-Spec has * aluminium pedals * brake upgrade on rear * carbon bonnet with naca duct * slightly darker iridium console * black door trim and seats with white stitching (instead of red) * stiffer suspension again * white front indicators -

Talk Me Out Of Buying A R34
wedge_r34gtr replied to Mike Citizen's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
pants down the 34gtr kicks arse -
I did the same thing, left car in storage for about 6 weeks and the dry cell battery went kaput (it was even disconnected...) I didn't trickle charge the battery after this (jumped it and went for a drive) and it never held proper charge again (couldn't start the car with it). So my adivice is to trickle charge as tridentt150v mentioned or check out the manual that came with the battery and see what it says. Also, as you mention that your battery is relatevly new, it is probaly still under warrenty...to state the obvious: if you do start having issues with it, try and claim a new one.
