  • Here it is, finally, I get to compare the Nissan R35 GTR and the Nissan R34 Skyline GTR. However, I do this review a little differently than other reviewers. I am not looking at what is the best car on paper, or which is the fastest around the track. Most people will never take their car to the track. So I compare the R35 GTR and the R34 GTR on the street and talk about what is the better drivers car and experience.

    Any GTR, even the r35, will be a legend forever.

      Even the R35 hu? :) but yes, they are cemented in history as a legendary JDM machine

    Drove all Skyline GTR variations on a track and drove a 2017 R35 GTR and will say that the R34 GTR seems to be the only one that is overpriced for what it is but regardless still very fun and exciting car. Worth $100k+? No never in my opinion more of a $60K-$80k experience but will always be one of the most legendary JDM cars ever, will be getting mine in 2026 and keep it forever, just N1 turbos and accompanying mods and call it a day. Nice video man look forward to seeing you get your R34 GTR

      You're echoing exactly what I said in my wrap up. The R34 is a good car, but it is not a $100k car. I think it's a great car at $60k to $80k, but more than that and there are much better cars out there. That being said, I still want one at some point, so, to quote Doc Holliday, "My hypocrisy knows no bounds."

      @ Exactly, nobody can steer away from a BNR34. My ER34 with BNR34 stuff is fun but i plan on experiencing the BNR34 to the fullest and make my decisions from there as iv’e talked to aussies and they said that they’d choose the ER34 over BNR34 regarding pricing but something about the GTR gravitates towards me. Nevertheless which ever platform i chose IE(ER or BNR) i’ll sick to it and keep it.

    Two amazing rides. I loved them both and, taking away the legend status, i would have a hard time deciding which one I would want. The R35 is amazing and responds great, but the inside of the R34 just feels more comfortable and it also performs great too. For now Ill stick to my R32 :)

      Joys of having the 4 options. Most people will connect with one platform over the others.

    In my opinion, comparing an r35 to the r34 is no comparison. The 35 is a faster and much better car hands down . The m35 engine is bigger and makes power much easier etc , the 35 is just so much better , the 34 may be much funnier to drive because it’s manual and sounds amazing.

    • @JDArcher
      @JDArcher  11 днів тому +1

      To an extent, I agree with you. However, there is more to driving a car than just power. That is why I reviewed and compared the cars the way I did. Obviously, on paper, the R35 is a far superior car than the R34. However, what are they like to drive? Sometimes more power isn't necessarily better. That is why we did this on regular roads and not a track. It's was also a chance to give an honest opinion of the R34 with being immediately bias based on fan boy mentality. Some people reviewing the R34 are used to their Toyota Camy or Subaru WRX. I'm coming from a R35 which is a better car (again on paper) so the 34 will need more than just speed to impress me.

      Yup, dream come true day. Now it's just a question of when I'll be able to get my own.

    So I had an r32 an r33 and an r35 gtr. The ownership experience for the r35 is leaps and bounds above the 33 and 32. The 32-34 cars are just too expensive for what you get. I do believe the 32-34 is “funner” to drive but the 35 is surprisingly nimble and engaging for what it is. Even though the 32-34s are marginally more fun, I still would pick a 35 to own!

    • @JDArcher

      Awesome. Ya, the R35 gets a lot of hate. Probably because people wanted it to be the RB generations, but it wasn't. However, it did knock porche of their throne at Nuremberg

      @idontgotagun9867 10 днів тому +2

      I'm of the same opinion, iv'e been able to drive the R34 GTR, R32 and R33 GTR and for the prices it just isn't worth it for the most part unless you absolutely love the car like me or Jessie as i can tell he's a fan of the car like i'am. The R35 still felt very nimble around the track at stock form on some good tyres, regardless they will all go down in history as legendary cars, i just dislike the eliteism of the Skyline community so i just stay clear from them compared to the R35 community where they all for the most part just love the platform.

      @@idontgotagun9867 I think for me nostalgia only got so far with the 32/33. A lot of people who think 32-34 is better are either blinded by nostalgia or hasn’t owned one long enough. There is a reason why a lot of these countries are dumping there inventory

      @@idontgotagun9867 Unfortunately toxic communities seem to come with highly desired cars. There was no community more toxic than the MKIV Supra community. Not only were they elitist to other cars, but also within their own community. I was actually relieved to be free of that community when I sold mine. The R35 community is actually pretty good for the most part.

      @@fastf00dies You could be right to an extent. When I had my R32 GTR, I never connected with it. I think it was partially because it was not an R34, which is what I really wanted.Once the novelty of RHD wore off, I ended up getting rid of it. However, after driving the R34, it was a really good drive and I belive there is a number of people who do just prefer the platform.
