everyone thinks theyre car is the "best" one in the country.. i bet theres about 400 better examples than ur car out there champ

And I bet you're wrong :)

Easily one of the nicest GT-R's I've ever seen...

But back on topic, get the body checked out as mentioned, as well as the mechanicals. Good luck with it.

As other people have mentioned, Aaron's R34R possibly IS one of the best in the country so unless you've seen it in action, I'd be careful of what you say about the car.

As for GTA, I bought my car from GTA back in 02. If you would like an honest opinion of them, PM me as I can't tell you everything about them on this public forum. I can tell you that they weren't very helpful when the car failed and I needed a repairer ASAP due to their negligence.

When I had the car checked out, they simply said that they'd pay for anyone I chose to do the check as long as I bought the car. At the time though, I didn't know of Racepace but if I had the knowledge I have now, Racepace is definitely the place to go to check out your future car.

Can't go past Mick @ MiColour at 7 Dissik Street Cheltenham. Many of regular SAU-Vic members have used Mick and swear by his work (me included). He's not as cheap as some out there but his work is 100% perfect once the work is done. He's also a major sponsor of SAU-Vic which means he'll give you a member's discount.

Thanks for all the info.

      I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.

      SAU NSW - R U OK? Southern Highlands Cruise

      By Matt Z · Posted

      Our Southern Highlands Cruise is proudly registered with “R U OK?” Day.  Sometimes the best way to check in on your mates is by getting out for a drive together. Sharing a common passion like cars creates the perfect space to chat, connect, and support each other.  A simple “R U OK?” can make all the difference. Let's enjoy the drive, the company, and look out for one another. PLEASE WEAR YELLOW FOR “R U OK?” DAY Sunday 14th September 2025 9:30AM Meeting Crossroads Homemaker Centre 10:00AM Cruise Departure Via Old Hume Hwy 11:45AM Arrival at Mittagong RSL Club Meet Location: Crossroads Homemaker Centre Final Destination: Mittagong RSL Club *Disclaimer* There will be a lead and follow car so no one should get lost. If you would like to attend or bring others along please put your name down and a +1 as numbers will be needed prior! This is NOT a race and we will all be adhering to all road rules. If this is what you want please come to one of our many track days. This is an official SAU:NSW event and will be run under a CAMS permit. One of the things that really sets our club apart is our commitment to being true enthusiasts. When on normal roads we strive to maintain good relations with the authorities as well as the public in general. When attending one of Skylines Australia NSW events please try to: • Be aware of surrounding environment and act accordingly. • Drive courteously on the state’s roads as a true enthusiast should. • Understand how important it is to maintain the good name of SAU NSW and thus, treat others accordingly. • Any misbehavior will not be tolerated and you will be asked to leave.
