debadge the hamburger yes

the gtr badge on it's own does look good

Followed a black 35 the other day toward Eastern - rear spoiler removed and only a GT-R badge on the boot - looked good.

You took a car you own to a carwash that uses a sponge to wash your car???? :down:

Save the money and usually time, most of all your car's appearance, take it to a high pressure carwash booth and do it yourself. Better yet, buy yourself a karcher and do it from home. Then just use a clean chamois to dry it off.

as a hobbiest detailer i couldnt fathom having my cars washed by low paid indian students, but then again everyone has diff priorities in life and some have other things to do instead of busting out the karcher etc on a weekend

nor would i simply high pressure the panels and then wipe all the dirt into the super soft nissan clear coat with a shamwow

op if you want someone to look after your car, shoot me a pm, i can recommend you a mobile detailer in your state who will do an at home wash

Mario did your families cars???? He's pretty speialised in what he does.

I saw coppers writing up a ticket for a GTST parked in a loading zone outside Coles in Diamond Creek one night. It was after hours and a place where everyone parks, so I thought it was a bit tough.

Then I saw it had a GTR badge on it so I told them to book him twice.

had a R33 GTR back in 2000, sold it cos there was just way too many fake GTR's running around.

thank god that R35 looks vastly different to the V35............... even though there are still some attempts for the V35 owners trying to stain the GTR badge!

i think there are 2 white V35s running around in sunnybank with the badges....................

True and yeah it is good to see the R35 GTR looking vastly different to a V35.

Fortunately, to the trained eyes of people who are familiar with GTR's, they can tell if it's a real GTR or not, even with the fake badge on.

I dont mind this

I only like to see this 'old school' GTR badge on the KPGC10 but this surprisingly looks good.

You sold your R33 GTR because other cars not as good as the gtr looked similar and had a badge on it????

Anyone who matters can spot a fake from a mile away (unless someone has spent a shit load of $$$ on body work on a car that isn't worth doing it to), and you really gave up the performance and satisfaction of owning an R33 gtr back in 2000 (which then was the equavalent of owning a 2008 JDM R35 in todays terms) because there was others that looked similar???

That is the type of snobby thought process of................... it doesn't make sense, they are all Datsun afterall :P

I miss my Datsun still (oh and it had a gtr front bar, no badge or anything else)

Hi every1, I have been looking for a nice r34 gtr for a while now but have not found anything yet. So I am starting to think about getting a r35 gtr instead.

But are all of the parts etc very expensive? Would just like 2 kno what im getting myself in 2.

    • Just one more post to show the final result and the original "janky" solution for a laugh. Everything feels really tight and no wobbling at all, very pleased 🙂
    • After drying a few days, time to put her back together 
    • The hot exhaust light will come on not from just the cat being blocked, but it's just a temp sensor, and it's designed to warn you to not do things like park in long grass.   If you've been pushing the motor a bit, it can cause the light to come on.   Second if the cat is rattling, I'd suspect it's not blocked, but instead falling apart inside.   The easiest "fix" until you can get a cat put back in, is to unbolt your one, bash the rest of the insides out, and then bolt it back in.   For a daily driver/street car, I am in agreeance of put a cat in the car. If it were race car I wouldn't care if it were removed.
    • No worries at all 🫡 I think the most satisfying things to make are the little bits that are just impossible to find or they're no longer manufactured. Generally I always try to replace parts with OEM wherever possible. This little project is also great because it'll never see the light of day, but strengthen these brackets so it's not just relying on the little standard screws in the headlight plastic. As soon as I saw the standard brackets and screws I thought, "well I'm not going to install with just the screws, the plastic tabs will just snap off". It's crazy how expensive everything has become yeah. But I suppose that's supply and demand; granted it's a lot easier to get brand new genuine parts these days which is fantastic 😊, I don't have to get totally reamed at the local Nissan dealer ha ha We sure are lucky we have all these manufacturers making parts these days, a few really great Australian companies too like Platinum Racing Products and Fit Mint Automotive, what a time to be alive ❤️ . I've got my eye on the RB26 head by PRP as mine has a very fine hairline crack, so that'll need to be addressed some time in the future. If you have any requests or odd things to make feel free to let me know and I can have a crack at making replacement parts ✌️
