r u gonna import 1 or buy 1 locally?

coz importing a 4 door 34 is really cheap....about 13-14k. but a 2 door would cost u a bit more

Hi, im thinking of buying one locally, not sure of the import procedures and im not confident of buying a vehicle without having a test drive or visual inspection

=)

How much do you think i shld pay for a 2 door?

Hi guys

I have another qn on the differnces between the R34 GT-X and GT sedan (1998-2000 S1 model)

Apart from the front strut bar and xenon headlamps, are there any other differences interms of the factory specifications?

Thanks!

Ewhs: i paid 16k for mine i will not go much higher than about 20k just not worth it man u can buy GTT for 21k+

but good luck there like a needle in a hay stack when mine was up for sale i bounced on that like a female at a myer sale :D

Sat in my GT R34 and then BOOM she had me hooked as soon as i turned on the motor :)

You'd be suprised though, quality fluctuates badly. I've had tools trying to get my GTt for 18K as they've seen one there cousin Meppy has bought for the same price and think they can get one too. Yeah well cousin Meppy just bought two halves welded together and the interior is rough.

I've now told 3 people to bugger off with offers only $500 under what I wanted, I'm not giving them a free bonanza! Look around and you'll find something decent for a good price. Definately under $20K my R34 is a GTt and is fairly mint with over $10K of mods....I'm chasing $23000 so you should be able to get a good priced car.

Hi 666Dan,

Ur car really looks mint, considering the mods, 23k is pretty attactive, too bad im not in the market for a turbo =P

18K? must be joking , thats probably what i will pay for a stock 98 model =)

u deserve better offers than that mate =)

Expect to pay more for a stock car..

Expect to pay more for an NA locally too.. these P plater laws have inflated NA's to rediculous prices!.. SSS's (for eg.) are STUPIDLY expensive!

thanks for the tip, i didnt know that stock car commands a higher price

saw quite a few AT turbo GT-Ts going at arnd 18k...

very attractive but im sticking to NA due to insurance and P plater laws haha

yup u r right i sold my NA MT R33 GTS S2 for arnd 11k a couple of weeks back and since regretted it =P

hey guys,

found a 98 R34 sedan GTX for 12k No visible rust ,car done 70k and stock as a rock

any comments?

thanks =P

Seems like a very good price for the GTX model, as it is basically a turbo model without turbo features. Not entirely sure on specs but i think you'll find they have the same suspension, wheels, brakes as the turbo model but still a non-turbo.. maybe some more features too but that's all i can confidently say i know.

have to disagree with lanky ^ in that an NA GT-X is basically a turbo spec car. if you look through the translated links (hopefully they work) with spec tables of each model you'll find that the NA GT-X doesn't have the same 'Mechanism' or "Tyre/Wheel" specs as the turbo models. Where if you look at the GT-V column it does share the same items as the turbo models (2nd link shows this better, click on 'major equipment list').

click through all the links anyway and have a read for yourself.

hope this helps you some more

Hi Reggie

Thanks for the input. In fact im pretty confused about the specs of the NA sedans as per my earlier post. I referred to the website u have posted and for 98-00 models there are no GTV models. only GT and GTX . GTV models are only available from series 2. As for the specs. my understanding is GTX has front strut bar xenon headlamps and 16 inch rims over the GT spec... not sure if thats correct though

Need further advice on this

Regards

Thanks for the links Reggi34dr, just the info I was looking for.

ewhs check out this sublink if you haven't already: http://72.14.203.104/translate_c?hl=en&amp...SPEC/soubi.html

Compares all the S2 models.

Thanks Dicer =p

Visited the page before but its a literal transalation from katakana haah had a good laugh over it

S2 has much better specs even for its base models but dun really like the front bar though

Thanks for clearing that up. Is it the GTV with similar spec or am i totally off the ball here?

Not exactly true on there being no GT-V's in the Series 1 run. The GT-V's first rolled out Sept/Oct 1999 making them a S1 which is what mine is. This is probably the reason the GT-V only shows up in Series 2 brochures, specs sheets, etc.

Yeah lanky, just the GT-V. From what I've noticed the GT-X has the florally/stripey interior keeping it inline with the rest of the NA models where the GT-V has the same 2 tone interior as the turbo models. Thats probably the easiest way to tell the difference between a NA GT-X and a GT-V, without lifting the bonnet or getting down and looking for the HICAS. the GT-V will the the GT-T 17" mags anway, another easy visual clue.

My 98 R34 has dun 40,000kms but that very low really. 70,000kms is good, fair amount for the year and type of car.

I was also in this predicament a little while ago, either a 34 25GT or a GTT. Both auto.

Let me say, the auto is magic, i was VERY reluctant to get an auto GTT but the tiptronis is far beta than i thort and brings power on much much better than using nrml auto mode.

Good luck searching buddy

    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?    
    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree.
