Nice 34 Richard.

Im sure you have sat in an FD or two. How did you go for room? Im a tad shorter than you and even i though they are a little snug, as there is not much knee room.

shy S6, I just checked. it's a late 2001 build, but first reg 2002 so they marked it as a 2002 model. sadly not a spirit R, it's deffo an RZ. still nice though. ;)

dave, yeah the FDs certainly are a bit tight for the ample gentleman. but I manage! the tall man who likes 90s japanese sports cars is always doomed to be cramped in one way or another. i'm used to it!

anyway, back to the 34.... it's still for sale. had a few testing the water type enquiries and one pretty serious one, but nothing in the bag yet, so if it tickles your funny bone give me a shout. :(

Crikey blimey! I'm moving house this weekend and just realised I own 2 GTRs, 1 Silvia and a truck. so someone please buy my beatiful R34. I'm moving to within about 1 km of my office now so I wont even need a daily car anymore. So if you catch me in the right moment I'm ready to play ball. :)

and thanks Jack. ;) you should tax all the good bits off your 33 and tuck them away under this R34. but you could never do that, your 33 is far too nice to mess with mate.

thanks Ben. It's still for sale. I'm not in such a rush now as I've already had to pay for the RX7 etc but I do still want to sell this as soon as poss as the 7 will be on the road in the next week or so, and I just don't really have space for all the cars anymore.

someone please come check it out, you won't be dissapointed it lives up to expectations of what a really neat, clean R34 GTR should be. :)

Hi mate, current status, still for sale.

I'm really keen to shift it. Paying the RX-7 rego today :)

So, I'm dropping $1,500 off the price for the next few days. If this car interests you, give me a call and come check it out and make me an offer. You never know your luck in the big city!

I still have the brand new set of zenon's too in their boxes and could be persuaded to chuck them in fairly cheaply. :rofl:

thank you. I have no idea why I haven't sold it yet. I know it's not the absolute cheapest GTR around, but it's certainly down the lower end price wise, and from my experience it's well near the upper end quality wise. sigh. well for now I'll just keep enjoying it. :P

Hi Richard,

I honestly dont think it's a price issue holding the car back from being sold, I think it's the overall market condition these days although I'm sure if this was in Bayside Blue then the car would have been sold many weeks ago so, at a guess it also may be that it's not most popular colour with potential buyers looking at R34 GTR's. There's absolutely nothing wrong with Silver but, I've noticed BB's to be a very popular colour for the BNR34's.

Good luck and I hope it sells soon and if not, you can sell the RX-7 instead! :thanks:

yeah I think you might be spot on there. Everyone I speak to loves the Blue. Personally it's down the bottom of my favourite R34 GTR colours list. but I'm often the odd one out. :D

I love the silver/grey, then probably white then red, then black, then probably blue after that then the gold and the green. yellow not even in the race for me...

So I think really all I need is one other person out there who loves the grey! come on 34 buyers, be different, we don't need another blue 34 GTR on the road. who would have thought a grey car could make you stand out in the crowd! and in the flesh I think it looks so tough.

The BNR34 Z-Tune is in a similar KV2 silver colour so, it has the plenty of potential to be very nice looking car with a

Z-Tune style bonnet, wide front fenders and 18" black Volk TE37 rims.

Damm.

I'm nearly selling the car to myself here. :banana:

haha, can't argue with that mate. Like I said I think in aus at least I am massively outvoted on the colour choice but surely there is another beer baron out there who needs a silver R34. come on! leave those handsome devils in their bayside blue GTRs in your wake! a few little carbon pieces really works with the silver. :dry: make my finances liquid again!

I actually quite like the silver colour now that ive seen one in the flesh at Powerplays. Put some black TE37's or LMGT4's, carbon ganadors, carbon Nismo style skirts and pods and Christ, dare I say, it would look better than a Bayside Blue car anyday.

If only I didnt buy my blue one already, I would seriously consider yours, and im not just saying that as well.

I'd have to agree with Richard here, Gayside Blue would be my last choice of colours. Silver in my opinion is the best. Still can't believe the car is still for sale.

Be patient, it will sell.

      R34 power steering

      By drifter17a · Posted

      I have done smoke test and can’t see any leak on high or low side.   checked pump and fluid can flow through. Removed the high pressure from steering and did smoke test and same on low side, no leak.   puzzled. Thinking why if it was all ok it suddenly went as car was off road for a year. Don’t want to disassemble pump yet as i can see fluid / air( compressor) can flow through with no issues

      Actually,  just remembered there should be info in the threads (somewhere) about swapping to a manual steering rack and deleting power steering all together.

      Thinking of getting a Q50 300hp and just tuning it instead of getting the Q50 Red or 400R

      By 180 wanabe · Posted

      Also had a look at the Nissan JP website looks like the 400r has a slightly shorter ratio than than the regular V37 3.133 VS 2.937 which from a guy who has driven both 3.69 vs 4.11 ratios in the S15 is bugger all. Seems that the AUTO Z runs the same ratio as the 400R but can't find any info as to if its an open or LSD? More often than not the auto LSD is open

      R34 power steering

      Do not replace the power steering lines with this stuff. If it's anything like the Chase Bays stuff it will leak and be worse than stock. The reason why the reservoir is on the LH/passenger side of the car is because that's just where the reservoir was most convenient to fit. Don't overthink this stuff. The intake/cold side of the engine is pretty busy on these cars. And again, the hardpipe is designed to be a janky power steering cooler. In theory you can replace it with a real power steering cooler but that's really only for track use where boiling the fluid is a distinct possibility. Start with the low pressure lines feeding the pump from the reservoir. Make sure there isn't a bunch of junk in the reservoir filter. Be careful to not get ATF all over the engine bay. I hate dealing with ATF spills, you can clean it up and the slightest crevice will still release more oil that can still drip over time. You also want to inspect for leaks before you make a mess and can't tell what happened. Most likely you have a leak somewhere that is allowing fluid out and air in. Failing that it's allowing air in but not fluid out. Only place I can really see that happening is on the low pressure side because the pump will pull a slight vacuum to draw fluid in. Everything after the pump is high pressure or lower pressure, approaching atmospheric by the time it returns to the reservoir.
