Hey guys.

So it's been a while since I've been a regular SAU user or been involved in the car community. How much do people think a decent GT-T is worth?

I've got mine up for what I thought was a pretty good price for a manual turbo with the mods it has, without a lot of luck in terms of interest.

I understand it's worth whatever the market dictates, but with so little genuine interest I'm starting to think no one wants 34's anymore! Happy for some feedback on the ad/price

Looks like a fair price to me, cheap even. I'd be taking a look if I was in the market for a 34! It's only been two weeks, I'd stay where you are pricewise. Location might deter some Melbourne buyers. I mean I've travelled interstate for the right car, but some people aren't as motivated.

Maybe put up some interior and engine bay pics as these can be deal breakers for people browsing cars.

Hey Birds, yeah I actually travelled interstate for this car, distance has never bothered me.

More pics was the only other thing I could think of, so will put them up and wait for the right buyer as Xalmon says

Cheers

If you find someone who's in the market for a black 34, they'll come right to you. Could just be a slow period what with Christmas and all...no one wants to spend money straight after Christmas. Kudos to you for being a realist and asking people what it's worth in case you missed the mark.

^^^ What they said. It's a buyers market (isn't it always so for cars) so you may have to wait a while for the right one to come along.

Also good photos make all the difference, take stacks: exterior in good lighting, doors/windows open/closed, door jambs, all seats, dash, steering wheel, roof lining, engine bay, underbody, chassis rails, tyres, exhaust etc. I'd be looking at all these things if I was buying :)

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      So I raised the car up a fair bit for shipping - see image - then lowered it again when it arrived. I then rushed to get an alignment in NL before the track and the shop just wasn’t anywhere near as precise as what I got in Japan. The guys that did the alignment this week said there was a fair amount of toe in the rear that could have contributed to the understeer. It was also the case that the rear camber went from about -2 to -3 at the shop in NL. However, since I’ve now got slightly wider tires in the rear - NS2Rs run wider than Accelera 651S - I could only get a minimum of -3 in the rear now due to clearance. Front is now -2.75 (-2.45 in minutes) due to being raised a bit (previously -3 in JP). So it’s likely a combination of the two factors, camber and toe. The issue now is I have more camber in the rear than the front and the next step on the front Cusco arms will put me at -3.5ish front which seems a bit excessive to me. The weird thing is I’ve never had any understeer at the track in Japan but they are very different circuits - Japanese circuits are much slower than the one I’ve been to here.    I’m probably going to have to start another thread for the E90. The plan is sort of to keep it as a daily but progressively mod it into a track car - honestly, you need a cage for the sort of speeds you go here. Just ordered the M3 front arms btw.  Love the car despite it being in pretty shitty condition. Oil analysis came back okay and it seems to have stopped consuming oil since fixing a load of engine bay things. Saw yours is a 335i right? f**king mistake on my part getting the DI N53 over the N52, fuel economy is insanely good though at 14-16 km/L.   Cheers, it’s great to see the benefits and pitfalls of different places. I’m contemplating going back to the U.K. around next year as the cost of living in the Netherlands is just ridiculous. GF is nagging me to settle and buy a house but I don’t know what LSD to buy.

      Have you seen the Milwaukee Train Horn? It's a beast! I stumbled upon it while browsing for upgrades. I'm thinking of adding it to my ride for some serious sound. Here's the link if you wanna check it out: https://bosshorn.com/products/milwaukee-train-horn. Anyway, thanks again for sharing your method.

      Anybody home...? I used to moderate this part of SAU about 20 years ago... hard to beleive it's still around basically unchanged with all the old posts pinned at the top. Amazing to read all those posts again.  If anyone drops by, I'm still in Japan (Nishinomiya, between Osaka and Kobe).  Cheers 🙂
