unfortunately they're not immaculate, way too many kms & still need tyres for compliancing.

If they tell you it "runs well" only, it's probably been on the track a few times

Lol 'run's well' could be translated into engrish as 'well it run's'

George's car sounds tough tough though

I agree boys, im just pointing out the fact that the prices are falling, so even though they are not the best condition, the good condition ones wont fetch THAT much more.

That guy's name is Peter & he's a backyard importer from Sydney.........that blue one is definitely 100% NOT a V-Spec.

He advertises regulary and says all his imports are immaculate.....

Ask him how much a good V-Spec is and he'll tell you they start at $50K

C'mon Kietz do some investigating before you post this misleading crap :D

and his name on the add says Gilbert not peter lol and how you know its 100% not a vpsec? theres no visual difference between the base version and the vspec version, besides the lil sticker. so =P

hey kietz, don't take my word for it, ring him up yourself.

He uses a lot of different names and don't be surprised if he tells you the one in the picture is sold (ie. never existed in the first place I'm guessing).

I'm not saying that he does this, but there are a few backyarders that take your deposit and import one for you then don't be surprised when they charge you $5-$10K more than the original quote when it lands.

ok than i believe you since you went hunting for your own 34 gtr so i cant argue with you. and yea 45k for a vspec does sound abit dodgey.

trust me Kietz, I looked day & night for months in Aust & Japan to find an immaculate one for reasonable money.

I keep hearing how cheap the BNR34 V-Spec's are now (and granted they maybe a bit cheaper than last year, what car isn't) but I've yet to see a cheap good one for myself.

Everytime someone trys to show me one, there's usually something wrong with it or way too many kms.

I am on the Prestige R34GTR list at the moment, just for a looksie. A very nice looking white GTR sold yesterday for 1.809M yen (picture has disappeared off the website already :O ) - that is just over $30k landed AND complied. Unbelievale - given I paid 970,000 yen for my R34 not even 2 years ago. Yes it has done 124,000km, but given most people will want to crack the engine and freshen it up eventually, and change over the suspension components, for an extra $10k you get a freshened up motor and brand new suspension. As long as the interior is in good nick - who cares?

This link will only work for a few more hours (click)

But yours is truly IMMACULATE Pete, and was a great buy for the price, given the outstanding condition.

well said scandyflick......want a RWD why get a GTR just get a GTST or GTT and slap in the RB26....why get a GTR and make it into a GTST or GTT

Jap Import Spares currently have in stock an R34GTR motor complete with turbos, fuel rail and injectors, and all items to get up and running. It even has a modified sump for rwd! So tempted - pity it is $8,500 = OUCH! Good value I suppose given it is complete, but for the price of selling my car plus the $8.5k, hopefully I will pick up a 34GTR in the not too distant future.

    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
