they are a dealer offering a full warranty and support

you cant compare their prices to brokers like jspec and prestige , you could get absolutly anything with them and all risk is on you

some people are quite prepared to pay a bit extra for convinience and service . remember this a business supporting people and their families here

You should visit NorthShorePrestige they have a couple of R34 coupes for around $23k.

Yes true, but there are dealers who are cheaper and have better cars with warranty and support for alot cheaper. Everyone is starting to drop their prices now on 34's and they need to look at least at starting to be competitive or people will just think they are a joke. I doubt the service part, seen lots of bad posts about service and when i went in there to buy my 34 they were hopeless. Weren't interested in what i wanted to buy only what they wanted to sell. And even then when I did look at the car it was not in the good of condition as the price tag would of recommended, with competitors like Japlink down the road even though their reputation may not be the best either at least they are competing on price.

Either way, each to their own and congratulations on your skyline purchase clippy.

the only 23k r34 they have is a auto sedan

these are cheap everywhere , if lees are charging more than about 24-25 then yes they are over priced

your going to need much more for a nice manual coupe tho so keep saving if you want something nice

this is going by their website

I was down there last week @ NSP and they have a '98 coupe in silver GTT for $23k i think it is an auto though, they did have some manuals and i think those were starting at $24-$25k but like anywhere if they want to sell a car they will negiotate.

But like mentioned above if you want something really nice, you are better off saving up as prices are still on their way down.

    • There's one for sale at Grand Auto Wreckers in Lonsdale (SA), for .... let's suggest the sum they're asking for will make you cry. You may have to embrace the idea of modifying the rear subframe to accept some other diff. You could probably find a way to wangle a shortnose into there, with a custom rear adapter and some sort of shenanigans to relocate the front mounts. This has probably already been done by others, so there might be some guidance available as to how easy/impossible it is, out there in the googles. But you possibly needn't restrict yourself to Nissan diffs if you're going to contemplate that. There are similarish Toyota diffs, possibly some Euro ones, possibly some Seppo ones.
    • The ball joint taper and arm taper have to match angle and diameter, but just doing the bushes is a much better option.....seems like the industry moved to "it is cheaper to replace the whole arm than take on the labour for changing this bushes", glad the aftermarket supports it
    • Gee she looks a bit rear heavy in that first pic! Sounds like a great project with the kids, but as I guess you know R series stuff is getting hard to find and pre that is pretty much impossible these days
    • Thanks GTSboy. I will inspect the valves actually, is this something I can do while they are still in the head? The block/bores don’t look bad to be honest hey, I can still see the cross hatches in the bores and they still measure 86.5mm. I’m not sure how to measure the installed ring gaps but I will do that and take it to someone who can. 
    • I’ve had the same headache with my lowered car, scissor jack first then floor jack every time. Ended up grabbing an extra-low profile aluminum jack (about 70mm entry height) and it finally slides under the lip without drama.
