No,its not that one,its one built by Mines,its featured in the current Autosalon mag.Nice car though.

I think the finest GTR in the universe could possibly be the Z Tune Nismo R34.

it is the car driven at Tsukuba or was it Nikko by Tsuchiya and Orido

i said the finest modded GTR

m&m you really need to read before comenting

Yeah picked up the mag today on my break and from the little small peices i read in the article it says its not, however it does have a COMPLETE Mines RB26 *drools*

But yeah i read it somewhere that it says its not actually the car, just rather something that is almost identical in mods and visually speaking (needs some BBS rims to top it off :P).

edit: Irrespective if it is or isn't the ACTUAL Mines 34 that thing is so hot!

edit edit: like i said its just from the little bits i read so don't quote me on this especially you DIRT ^_^ i may be wrong

Hey,lose the attitude buddy.It is NOT the car,clearly says that in the article,and I read fine.So a car modified by Mines is classed as modified,but a car bought second hand by Nismo and modified is not.Go figure.I thought altering a car from stock was modifying,no matter who it was done by.

You dont pick on my reading and I wont pick on your spelling of commenting :P

Oh yeah Autostlyes car are top notch no doubting that.....

Its fully built by Mines but it is not THE Mines R34 thats all i think is being said

cant believe all you read in Autosalon....we have been listed winning trophy's we didn't....in the same issue(current) Daniel Jitts' Supra has a twin turbo 1UZFE when it has a 2JZGTE (this is said more than once) our car had twin Trust fuel rails and a Autometer boost controller.lol [cabin] fools

so who knows if its the real McCoy.

think ill give Dom. a ring myself.

Just checked the web site.....

Can be yours for a cool $169,000

Here is a pic for those of you requesting it.

Also this is a quote from the page that has the car on it......

"This car has been built to above group A spec. Brand New MINES engine with less than 3000klm, Way to many extras to list. No expense spared. Over $250,000 has been spent in making this the ULTIMATE street and track car. If you deserve the best, you cannot go past this one. For more details give Joe at AUTOSTYLE Prestige & Performance Cars a call on 0404 461 993"

Quite a few differences between the cars,although I like the idea of Dom's car having a built bottom end.

Tsukuba car has stock air box,not ARC,BBS mags,not Enkei,white bonnet with small vent ,not black with large vent.Black cannards and lip on Tsukuba car,not on Doms.Rear brakes are stock on Tsukuba car,4 pot Alcons on Doms.These are just the obvious ones.

I think the biggest difference might be that the Tsukuba car is based on an N1,while Doms car is based on a V Spec 2,though not entirely sure on that one

    • Hi All, I'm based in Sydney and want to get hold of 4 stock R34 GTT wheel caps as pictured. Cheers
    • Haha im flattered! Although my poor boat is collecting dust in the garage, as it hasn’t been driven in like 6 months. I forgot the to put the trickle charger on too, so the battery is likely toast now.. I have the frenchys kit. It is fantastic. My only gripe was that the hard lines from the firewall needed some tweaking, however, this was mainly due to my specific turbo and dump combo. The weight and size packaging is much nicer too. I think I have some pics on my build thread somewhere.. my justification for the kit was more “why not” I had gone to the trouble to modernise just about every other part of the car..
    • Actually, ethanol has probably never been cheaper, on a tax free basis, than petrol. With fuel excise being what it is, and only being levied on the hydocarbon component, not the ethanol component, and ethanol for non-drinking purposes not being subject to liquor excise - E85 was cheaper, but not because the combustible liquid itself was particularly cheaper.
    • Maybe? If changing the cat to a higher flowing cat, caused the turbo to spool more quickly, and those areas of the map had not been tuned for the boost level it is now seeing, then yes you would need a re-tune. How dangerous it is running without the updated tune would depend on how far out the tune is with the now higher boost levels, how the engine protection has been setup, is the ECU compensating with a wideband sensor, is the boost control closed loop blah blah million other things... But yeah having said that, I wouldn't be surprised if changing out the cat for a high flow, in say a full 3" exhaust, made no noticeable difference at all.
