Hi all, I'm new to this forum but have been a part of r31skylineclub.com for a while now..

I have a nice loan under my belt to the tune of $20,000 and am looking at buying an R34 GTT. I know a fair bit about 31's, 32's and 33's but the 34 is fairly foreign to me. Could any of you tell me what I should look for in an R34 and where to go for a good deal (I'm in WA).

Tim.

I've seen ads in the Autotrader for R34's selling at $21,000 - $25,000...

What I'm more concerned about is the condition of the car, how to pick if it's still 'good to go', things like AWD over rear wheel drive and turbo or non-turbo and all that other sh*t.

Talk to Paul at autoworx http://www.autoworx.com.au/ I think the majority of r34s coming into have gone through him, he can do compliancing, importing and also sells cars he imports himself.

No worries, thanks for that.

So do any of you know much about the R34's? Whether to go triptronic or manual, turbo or non-turbo, AWD or RWD, 4 door or 2 door etc etc..?? :/

You'd want to go for a 2 door coupe, manual, turbo.

They only come in RWD.

That would be the R34 that is worth the most (after a GTR ofcourse.)

That's assuming you wouldn't mind a non turbo just for looks, an auto for comfort, or 4 doors if you have a family.

Yeah you'd need at least 25k for a manual, turbo, 2 door but it will probably have high KMs and be a bit rough.

Budget for at least, 28-30k i reckon.

Here you go...look through this and all ur questions will be answered. Its called the search function.

R34 topics

What's wrong with an auto sedan (it would be triptronic anyway?).

I don't mind paying far less for granny transmission.

The question is what right with an auto trans? Why buy a sports car and get auto? defeats the purpose.

starting line advantage? lol who cares?

only homosexuals and women buy auto sports cars. :D It's like driving a porsche boxter or a jeep wrangler, its just not right.

I would suggest test driving one at a car yard before making a purchase.

Homosexuals? An AUTO BF typhoon is currently the quickest 1/4 mile and 0-100 KM/H Aussie muscle car available! It beats manuals with more KW hands down... this not only goes for Falcons but for HSVs and even some Euros also! In a drag I rather an auto, with twisties then manual...

Putty, if you want an auto tip tronic then go for it...

Funny the new Porsche 911 Turbo is quicker in tiptronic auto than manual, guess Porsche are aiming at homos and women.

Get over jerking your stick.

    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
