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

    • looking forward to your t56 swap man its a game changer if it works! 
    • So, when are you trying the new GR86 or BRZ?
    • Uncle Duncan Yeap, FI Interchiller  Works well, normal IAT's cruising with the WTA only went from 50°c+ to 25-30°c with the interchiller  Before, when on it hard, the IAT would see 80-90°c, now, the highest has been was around 38°c IIRC IAT is measured under the blower hat I recommend it for the street or strip where your only on it hard for 10 or so seconds, but it wouldn't be efficient for sustained track use as it would heat soak from the AC turning off or whatever it does during WOT to protect the compressor It really needs the AC running for it to not heat soak and keep the WTA coolant chilled My WTA coolant temps when just cruising is around 2°c
    • Hey Mark...sorry to interrupt your career change to hair dressing... but...did you ever fit the interchiller to the commodore, and if so how was it? And, who made it?
    • I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......
