    Panel beats familiar with gtr's

    in New South Wales

    Posted

    Hi guys,

    Been out of the scene for some time but i am finally in the market to purchase a gtr. I am currently looking at one that has surface rust all underneath, however,  on the strut tops and in the boot-well are completely clean.

    As the car came out of factory with the cold weather package i am a little weary that there is rust places with limited access without removing panels or jamming a camera between panels etc. I am just wondering if anyone can recommend a panel shop that knows skylines quite well and can go over the car for me before purchasing around the Blacktown area.

    Also just wanted to see what everyone's thoughts are of the rust underneath and strut tops. It seems to me that the strut tops look all original but i am a little iffy as the sealant on the seams is quite thick in places compared to the gtst that i had a few years back.

    Looking At Purchasing A 34 Gtr V Spec From Wa

    in Western Australia

    This was his reason as to why it was rebuilt a second time but it might prove a little hard to find out why it was the first time. looks like ill have to give apc a call and see if they can provide me with any details


    I purchased the car from a CEO of an accounting company in Brisbane (his toy car) in April of 2009 with roughly 68k 'genuine' Km's on the Odometer.

    At the time the engine was already built by APC performance (http://www.apc-racing.com.au/showentry.asp?enid=72) however in November of 2010 (20k Km's later) I discovered the harmonic balancer was not tightened enough and came loose.

    Consequently the crank was slightly bent at 86K Km's and so I replaced the crank with a new R34 GTR crank and completely replaced the bottom end. The engine was also retuned by Aaron at In Tune Performance.

    For the people that cant be bothered clicking the link it is a 1999 white vspec with a ztune conversion and the bonnet is carbon fibre and the plates on the car are ZLR.

    Thanks Con
