Yes that is auction grade. And yes you can get in R34 GT-T's for under 30. There is a few things involved e.g. using you car as a test vehicle so you avoid compliancing costs.

NISMOR34- yes there is no one yet with R34 compliance. We are looking at another 4-6 weeks. Craig Dean has already sent his application from Car conversions. Yes you can bring in R34s but only as a test vehicle.

lol ... cut this fella a break! there is a good possibility of an 18 year old having 70k for 1st car .... (remember on the US site with that stuck up US kid)

1.daddy could have given him the $

2.won the money from powerball

3.inherit the money from a deceased person

4.work really really really really hard for it legite business

5.sold heroin for the last 6 months

u guys remember that guy in the US who was boasting about his porsche and his lambo, mini etc .... that 18year old. That kid actually did have the money. So ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE

buddy, if u r really searching for a 1st car. I believe gtt or gtr or non turbo is all fine! All depends on wat kinda driver u r.

BTW if u dont mind me asking. where did the 70k come from. I hope the money was attain through OPTION 4 (as shown above):D

no probs mate, I know a couple of guys in the business and they are NOT prepared to run a perfectly good 34 into the wall at this stage ~ for RAWS.

My partner has pretty much just bought herself a 34 gtt [grade 4-4.5 I think] for around that figure anyways - modified :)

how many tests will they allow?

Sorry for being off-topic max.89! Although some of this stuff does affect you.

Nark / Horus, I wasnt thinking like you guys, I knew he meant Auction Grade :D LOL

sounds like he is totally full of it or just signed on here to boast that he has 70k for a first car when he doesent know what car he is even talking about!!

:bahaha:

:bahaha: :D he is totally full of it....

And he's 18yo need to spend $7k pa to insure a R34... ?

I would rather get something easier to insure, spending $2k+ pa is acceptable for imports, but not $7k a yr!!

Imagine the stuffs you can get with that extra $5k difference. In one yr you can get a FMIC+Turbo, the next yr PFC and some other crazy monster mods....

There is different tests. The side intrusion test is to see if it meets ADR standards. There only has to be one vehicle crashed per make and model. There is a guy up in Qeensland that has already done or is doing an R34 right now.

Iam bringing in my vehicle as a test car for a compliance workshop. They need it as they are up to stage 3 and they need a test car so they can get there RAWS. The only thing that will happen to my car is it will get the usual compliance that has to meet the completely stock requirments.

    • 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
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
