Then R35 hands down.

Unless there is something about the R34 that you really must have????

I guess the performance of R35 is in a different league to the 34,

however............... i would still love to own a R34 as well! :)

Its just the raw sexyness and reputation and that keeps bringing me back to the R34.

Yes, Ive also heard you have to dump tens of thousands in to A R34 to bring it up to match the R35 performance.

But I want a R34 as close to standard as possible and I'll hold on to it. Already getting hard to find one which hasnt been 2 worked.

Stock for stock, the 34 is nowhere near the level of a 35.

The 35 is also the only car that has put a smile on my face without a clutch pedal, going from 35 back to an rb model you really feel the age of the 'old' gtr's.

For reference a stock 35 gtr does tsukuba in same time as z tune 34, which is regarded as the best goin street 34.

34 wins on price an maintenance though, unless u do it up you will not have maintenance costs like u see from r35.

For everything else, but pointless back seats, the 35 wins imo. So easy to drive, so fast, no lag, torque in any gear ( an amount you can only dream of from a rb ) great handling etc.

If money is not a problem I'd pick a r35 if I was you, the hype on them is well justified!!!

What cars are you coming from?

Hello, R33 GTR, R33 S2 GTST, 5x R34 GT-T, V35, Evo VII, Mercedes W211 E500, 350Z convertible, 350Z coupe. Thats all i can think of at the moment.

What i observed is the older nissan cars I've owned seemed 2 be better build quality than my newer nissans that ive had.

With my V35 and both of my 350z's I was getting sick of the power window faults, central locking faults, weak gearbox synchros, tears in the roof of the convertible - etc. All from design faults and sh*t parts. And u replace them with genuine spares which are also sh*t parts and its only a matter of time before it happens again.

With R34 u know the design faults already (stuff like rust around boot brake light). Im hoping that these similar issues i mentioned above dont pop up in the R35 over the next few years.

But R35 is such a sexy car aswell, they look fantastic every time i see them.

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

Would it be okay if they were low paid white-skinned students dominoz?

much respect to the R34 but you need a ride in the R35 - its godlike in every way

    • 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 ✌️
