Buying R34


Recommended Posts

Guest kenshin

thz for ur info

a frend of mine sellin R34 TURBO 99, km almost 10k(not GTR)

condition still good and im plannin to get 1 from him but he was askin whats my offer for that

whats the minimum and max offer u guyz think i should offer him?

im thinking abt the resale of this car as well actually.

are they gonna be dropped significantly and slightly?

cuz this car is just for a short time use only, abt 1/2 year i'll be using it, so i assume the condition will be almost the same and km wont be much diff after i drive it around.

will that do $1k,2k,3k,4k,... droppin price for using it another 1/2 year?

thz guyz cuz im really concern of the resale value. If the price drop much then i wont get thr R34. im thinking abt how much $ i'll lose if i use the R34 for 6mths only. $5k=6 mths or..........

sorry franks, you're going to hate me.

kenshin, through importers, you could get an R34 GTT (99ish) for about $30k unrego'd.... even dealers have them now for $38k in yellow with low k's. it sucks i know. :D

sorry franks, please dont hurt me.

It is manual franks

is that ur sky franks? cuz i seen yellow sky around chinatown couples of times since im stayin there. And ur loc is in the city as well, could be urs =)

iv been lookin for r34 in newspaper but hard to find 1

u guyz know any good dealer specialise on this imported cars in sydney? cuz i wanna visit few of them

prolly it'll be cheaper if i can find private car rather than dealer

i wish i could!!!!!!!!!

10-15km, manual, 99-00 for 34 gt-t max $40k and what the min value i can get if i purchase from dealer?

and how much the rego? cuz thats the only cost we gotta pay if we buy from dealer and i know nothin abt it, since this is my first time buyin a car =( very sad case i know

another question, how much i gotta pay for the insurance anyway for this gt-t, cuz i heard its very expensive for turbo car

whats the best way to get the lowest cost for this shitty insurance(legally) LoL.

kenshin,

on victoria road just out of the city and past birkenhead point there is a dealer (old big boys toyz shop) that have 2 yellow gtt's.

there is also a dealer on parramatta rd, nth strathfield area (i think its called eddy lee's or something) that had a yellow gtt...the ones that i did see were rather stock.

there are also 2 x BNR34's forsale i know of - WARIO and SWOOP. bayside blue and black respectively, asking price is around 120k. a couple of the most known BNR34's in sydney atm.

nah, thats not my car :P i hardly goto that area...i think im gonna hold onto mine for a little longer cause they're getting hard to find with mods.

kenshin, prepare for some battles with insurance. If you have never had a car before and i presume you are 20ish? or early 20s? i would say prepare to spend well over $3/4k per year. To put it into perspective, when i had my R33 Gtst, i was 21 with a 60% no claim bonus (6 years of driving with no claims), no speeding tickets and my insurance was 2700.. you have no no claim bonus and the car is worth more than my gtst was worth, so expect to pay close to double mine.

i also pay $3k for my GTR now.

whoa can i just pay the insurance for the 3rd party only? a case like when i crash into some1's car, the insurance would only be payin for that person, not including my car so i gotta fix it by myself. Another way is to pay the satelite tracking system or somethin like that, so u dun have to pay that expensive.

a frend told me that way but hes not sure.

so many yellow colors available on the market

i found few ppl sellin r34 but the price isnt much diff with the dealers

BTW could the dealer or jp side reset the kilo for r34?

VOTING whats the 1st and 2nd best color u guyz think? taking it as consideration =), seems like yellow color diff to resell back Y/N?

    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
