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.

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
