as said above i wouldnt buy an r34 unless its a gtr..

i've had 3 skylines already, i tend to keep getting the frekn r33!!!!!

shall change my minds next time hahahhaha.

but again, its ur call, which car makes u woah more!

there is nothing wrong with choose a lower model car, if u like it, if ur happy with it choose it

goodluck!

R34 = Square ass

R33 = Sexy curvy ass

haha... just watever u feel looks best... its your car after all.

LOL! Ironically thats wat i used to say when i had a r33 to make myself feel better, until i actually got a r34 i realised i was just being a jealous boy :)

heheh but i still love r33's but it needs a gtr wing

Hey guys, cheers for the info, ive opted for the R34 at last :)

Im just waiting for my loan to get approved, and off to buy the car then BOOM! pictures galore !! haha

I'll give you guys some information when it comes to hand, my dad looked at the R34 this sunday and loved it to death, he was sceptical at first because underneath the rubber seals in the boot there was rust, but he reassued me that he'll fix it himself.

Then he went around the car looking at the paint work, then engine bay, then the interior.

Looks great, then got the owner to jack up the car and dad started to work with it underneath, checked everything and then gave me a nod.

Hahaha that was my hektik sunday !!

It only copped rust near the boot, where the seal had a little whole that had water going through.

it was only a small rust, the car comes with GTR BRAKE system which hasnt been installed yet, dads gonna do that, and it comes with gauges and original wing aswell.

go for an autech S15 iv driven an N/A R34 and my gf just bought an R33 N/A they are pretty weak the s15's have some punch in them and throw you back in the seat all and all just much more fun to drive plus most of the autech S15's come with almost 7 grand mods already attached to them much better buy

i didnt buy my r34 from a private seller i got it from power road carsales in vic so its a bit far away for you to come down and take a look. is your r34 your looking at a 2 door or 4 door?

when i was looking for a skyline i was going to get a r32 or r33 i never even considered getting an r34 until i turned up and had a look at one and took it for a test drive. plus it was 4 door, something different. and i love it. just remember if you have stock coilpacks in the car they will die sooner than later especially worse on a hot day (thats when mine died) so i bought splitfire ones and its all good.

agreed i would take an autech S15. but they are dearer.

rust in the boot, common problem around the centre brake light apparently.

Rust scares me, if i found any i would pull out. but i could be being anal.

If its where you can see it then where is it that you cant see

Yeah i guess so, im just waiting for the funds to be approved, i hope it does, but i got a gut feeling it wont because ive only been employed here for 3 months and they might not consider that as a stable income -.- .

I swear if it comes back declined im gonna' be so depressed !! haha

Definitely the R34. The R33 is losing its class these days, so many scummers drive them. I went and test drove an R34 with my mate the other day, and I reckon up close and in person they look like a seriously mean car. Meaner than the 33, which just looks sexy.

I'd love an Autech S15!!!

Agree though they are a fair bit dear.

I remember when was around 17, seeing my first skyline r33 in the flesh, was a white R33 GTST around Garden City (SOR Perth).

I was impressed by how clean it was, and how fresh the design was compared to the falcons & commies of the day.

Unfortunately these days 33 GTSTs are common as muck, but still a much more beautiful kinda of muck compared to some of the crapodores out there.

    • To expand on this to help understanding... The bigger/longer the block is, the more it's going to work to sit on your far away high areas, and not touch the low stuff in the middle. When you throw the guide coat, and give it a quick go with a big block, guide coat will disappear in the high spots. If those high spots are in the correct position where the panel should be, stop sanding, and fill the low spots. However, using a small block, you "fall off" one of the high spots, and now your sanding the "side of the hill". Your little block would have been great for the stone chips, where you only use a very small amount of filler, so you're sanding and area let's say the size of a 5/10cent piece, with something that is 75*150. For the big panel, go bigger!   And now I'll go back to my "body work sucks, it takes too much patience, and I don't have it" PS, I thought your picture with coloured circles was an ultra sound... That's after my brain thought you were trying to make a dick and balls drawing...
    • Oh I probably didn't speak enough about the small sanding block for blocking large areas.  In the video about 3 minutes in, he talks about creating valleys in the panel. This is the issue with using a small sanding block for a large area, it's way too easy to create the valleys he is talking about. With a large block its much easier to create a nice flat surface.  Hard to explain but in practice you'll notice the difference straight away using the large block. 
    • Yep I guessed as much. You'll find life much easier with a large block something like this -  https://wholesalepaint.com.au/products/dura-block-long-hook-loop-sanding-block-100-eva-rubber-af4437 This is a good demo video of something like this in use -    You have turned your small rock chip holes into large low spots. You'll need to fill and block these low spots.  It's always a little hard not seeing it in person, but yes I would go ahead and lay filler over the whole area. Have a good look at the video I linked, it's a very good example of all the things you're doing. They went to bare metal, they are using guide coat, they are doing a skim coat with the filler and blocking it back. If what you're doing doesn't look like what they are doing, that's a big hint for you  
    • The odometer does go up when driving.  Does this tell it is an issue with the speedometer itself?    Where can I look for replacement cluster? Or speedo? I can likely do the repair.. Will ER34 cluster work on HR34? Or do I need a HR34 20GT S2 specifically lol
