Wassup Guys/Gals!!

This is my first post and am kind of new to the Skyline World. We don't get to see them much here (US), so bare with my ignorance on certain matters. But my GF lives in NSW now and she drove a friend's Skyline and she is hooked. She wants one pretty bad, so I had a few Questions,

1) How much would a R33 GTR V-Spec/ R34 GTR V-SPEC cost in Australia (Brisbane area). Also how hard are they to acquire down there?

2) Performance wise which the better bang for the buck in between R33 GTR and R34 GTR

3) Also if someone can direct me towards a site which has different models specs (like gts, gtst, gtt's, gtr's) I just want to know what's the difference.

4) Last Question for , Is there any place in Brisbane where they sell imports (skylines, supras). Or any place that we should AVOID not getting a car from.

Thanks for all the help in advance.

Well both Brisbane and NSW. She pretty much lives on the border(30 mins away from brisbane). How much do the R33 and R34 GTR's go for. Approx ballpark figure? So that we know what we are looking at finance wise here. I saw a 1999 R43 GTR for sale on some site in australia somewhere for around $100K (AUD ofcourse).

Just let me know any and all the info please. I want to do some research before we spend that kind of money on a car. Thanks alot for the quick reply.

Thanks alot guys. $100K AUD is not bad for a 1999 R34 GTR. But are there are shops around brisbane area who are familiar with these cars. As in to work on. Or Does local Nissan Dealerships do that for us? Also wanted to know where I can I find some specs & pics off different models.

eg:- I don't really know the difference between R34 GTR and R34 GTT model. As ex-static mentioned in the post above, the price difference is huge but what about performance wise. Single Turbo, rear wheel drive. But do they take on as good to mods as the GTR? Also how about the Comestic-wise. Do they look pretty much the same?. Stock Power output?.

Sorry about all these newbie Questions, Appreciate all the your time and help.

Thanks! :P

The R34 GTT and GTR looks fairly similar except for some cosmetics.. such as a different kit, but you could fit a GTR Kit to a GTT if you wished.

The GTR is an animal, 4WD 2.6ltr Twin Turbo, and takes VERY Kindly to modifications, its rated at 206kW(?) at the engine.. but we all know that its not hard to get LOTS more power from that.

The GTT is alot more sedate, more of an everyday car, rather than a full fetched weapon, they take reasonably well to mods, and are still pretty quick. a 2.5lt Engine, RWD, and single turbo, but still manages to push out around 180kW at the engine.. which isnt to shabby for a family car :P Theres a few guys on here that have got that same engine to arouns 280kW at the REAR Wheels.. now thats nice :(

As with People who can servive and supply parts.. Brisbane is pretty well in the know on imports from what I can tell, so it shouldnt be too hard to find someone there to help you out, maybe try the NSW/QLD section of the forums.

The R34 GTT puts out over 206kw, or more than likely does. It's rated at 206kw so it's almost certainly over this. The GTR is also rated at 206kw and we all know it puts out more than the GTT.

You are probably thinking of the R33 GTS-t, which is rated at 184kw.

    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
