Hi guys,

So I am finally going down the path of my dream and purchasing a 2001 R34 GTR V-SPEC II from an importer. It has 40,000 km's on the clock, practically stock as aside from an aftermarket cat-back exhaust, whilst the rest of it is like it has been off the factory floor. I am in the process of securing finance, and hope to pick it up next week.

What I was hoping to find out from any of those that have been down this path, specifically the R34 GTR's - what are the typical "gotyer"s to look out for when buying one? Has anyone had any experience of things that haven't been as they seem, or experienced anything that they could have avoided with a bit more foresight?

I have read a couple of articles on this site, and there's some fantastic stuff about general skylines and what to look out for... I was hoping to be a bit more specific and tailor a thread to my future car.

So with that in mind, does anyone have any advice on what to look out for, or perhaps a link to another post which may detail exactly what I am asking?

Thank you!

Soon.2.Be.Pwner.

Further to this, I received advice that the R34 GTR V-Spec included on the central display unit the following features that the standard GTR did not;

Lateral G-Force metre

Lap timer

Can anyone confirm whether this is the case, and if so can they provide some instruction on how to access it?

Thanks..

im pretty sure that all GTRs had the G senor, not so sure about the lap sensor.

one thing to mention with all skylines, especially the GTRs is to make sure u keep your Xenon HID bulbs in the car, although compliance requires these to be removed, make absolute sure ur compliance company puts them back in. the mistake i made we i purchased mine was i didnt no anything about skylines. and so im left with shockn aftermarket HIDs which willl never be as good as the factory Xenons.

thats my advice

the file i have attach explain how to use the MFD (muiltfuction display) in the R34 GTR. From my understanding the V-spec model had the upgrade function on displaying Int Temp. and exh temp

      R33 GTS25 NA - Stalling when vehicle is at operating temp

      By dbm7 · Posted

      For sure the later RB26 variants had a different setup (6 cam voltage sender?), but the RB25DE/DET share the same ECU pinout/PCB footprint, and at the ECU plug it ends up being 'throttle sensor in' & 'throttle sensor out' (to A/T TCU) ...you stick a multimeter on these pins and you'll find them directly connected (0 ohms) ; I had an pair of Nissan ECUs on the bench long ago, and I noticed this throttle sensor in/out link, actually linked to an op-amp ...which was unpopulated on the NA board, but present on the T board and I went 'ah-ha!' in some moment of clarity... ...it wouldn't surprise me if they changed strategy here though (in the software and actual monitoring of this signal), because they did with other stuff (A/T signals).. and 0.45v as a trigger point makes sense, as that's what the external TCU units expect at idle ; kudos, thanks for that insight...I suppose it boils down to whether or not Consult can display real time data of that signal's voltage... ...in any event, it presents the same target...ie; rotate TPS unit to achieve 0.45v to suit both ECU&TCU, and where do you goto from there? Just disconnect TPSwitch connector and/or that plus TPSensor connector....or do you go for the throat and disconnect IACV solenoid and see if it still stalls? (probably throws a recoverable fault code and goes for default idle strategy?)...

      Exhaust silencers/varex exhausts

      I’m also conscious that e85 is slowly being phased out. Not all United’s have them anymore. Can’t take the risk of being low on petrol and assuming the servo will have it.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      MR HAMMER has said his piece. Painted up to avoid Rusty Rusty. Actually lines up well. (i.e it lines up the same as the unmolested GTR guard). Turns out the GTR Strut brace does foul on the bonnet vents ever so slightly. May need a little bendy bendy if intended to keep using with a strut brace. So spacing it out to clear the FAST102 is not an option. Annoyingly, the bonnet vents also foul on the heater lines running over the engine. Given this engine does not EVER require a heater, a delete loop is going to be used. Don't worry, the defogger uses the AC. The heater is basically "Do not use the aircon and turn the fan on". It will still be effective, I promise.... once I get the system regassed... Will have to revisit with unvented bonnet I suppose, and suitable strut brace. There's plans to do this and other things tonight and bleed brakes (there was a weep) and put the bumper back on, and take Good Friday morning - Because troubleshooting on the side of the road limping it home at midnight tonight is ... not very smart.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      Thank you all for you assistance. I contacted Nistune regarding the support for the RB20DE along with my ECU Code (23710-10U00). They do have a map for it and added the RB20DE as a purchasable option now as well. They also added Malta as a Billing and Delivery options as this was missing. I was honestly amazed at their quick response and action, it took less than 24 hours. I also looked again at direct fit options for injectors, just in case I were to replace them. DeatschWerks seem to use a Bosch EV14 base and makes ones that fit mine at 440cc lowest, but also have 550cc at the same price. I tried looking for other direct fit options and managed to find one (also Bosch EV14 based) which includes a plug and play adapter on ebay. Did a small test with a Noid Light on the troubled injectors and all seems good, so they are pulsing properly electrically. One weird part is that they are missing on the same two cylinders as before I got the injectors cleaned. Mechanic also found this weird as he did not label the injectors and it is unlikely to have the faulty injectors be installed in the same cylinders.
