only 40k? That's how much they were 4 years ago!haha You can get a beat up R34 GTR for 28k easy but buyer beware! By the time I'm done I would have spent around 30-35k for my GTT, engine swap and all the mods (performance, exterior,interior). In the end, my GTT will look better than a stock GTR and will be faster than a stock GTR hands down... well worth it. If I wanted to buy a GTR I would have to sell my GTT (i would get 16k at best since GTTs are a dime a dozen in Japan and I can't sell it to koreans w/o them paying over 10k in taxes) so I would still need 24k just to have a STOCK R34 GTR.... then modding it from start would be expensive.... not worth it in my situation when I can be done with my project at 35k. GTR's are the sheit but sadly I'm in no situation to be able to afford it and satisfy my spending splurges.

unless your talkn about just the car theres no way u can get a decent gtr for 40k by the itme it lands here.

well around 40K I mean... good ones do come by, as long as you're patient, not picky and don't want an Nur or V Spec or anything fancy.

like this run of the mill one:

42k landed and complied.

chak8080, yeah sorry mate, didn't think about korea... it'd be a lot cheaper over there. I was talking in terms of the lads in oz.

i wouldnt exactly call something with over 90,000 a decent gtr.

i wouldnt bother with a gtr if it had over 40,000kms but thats just me.

although it defiently is an attractive offer.

sighs, sometimes i wonder if pouring so much into a GTT is even worth it all =[

lmao... a 9 year old 1999 car with 40,000kms on it? that's 4500km's a year.

Are you trying to tell me if you owned a GTR you'd drive only 4500 km's a year? Personally my car chalks up about 20,000 to 25,000 a year, and it hasn't missed a beat.

a 40,000km GTR will show up sometime somewhere... and it'll most definitely have its odo tampered unless its one of those exceptionally rare cars that have genuine low kms. Unfortunately its the guys that use the km reading as a yard stick on a cars quality that'll fall for it and snap it up.

    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
    • So 10/10 times that code is coil packs? I mean if that's the case ill drop the $400USD or so to replace them. I didn't know these cars threw codes before the issue became an issue.
