Hey

Im in the market for an R34 skyline...just left my job and company car...{380 VRX s3}

Iv been looking around on the web and some car yards

Anyway to cut a long story short found this R34 the other day:

Would anyone be able to give me some advise as to what to check or question about the R34 in general when buying?

Thax

Whats your reason for selling?

bit over it. wanting to go 4wd. since i busted up with the mrs been getting back into my hobbies again more heavily, shooting, fishing and the like and a skyline isnt really appropropriate.

^^^ +1

nice car and definitely worth about 70k...not 78

with the yen taking a dive; the sellers taking advantage of it...think about it; that gtr is probably 4.3-4.6million yen + 20% taxes to land it here + shipping and profit

I dont think that's a Vspec II, looks like it just has the bonnet.

That car was built by Top Secret for some famous Japanese baseball player, its got his name on the customised leather front seats.

I bought my 34 of SSV a few years ago, they are great to deal with and have very clean cars.

Right so hear is were im at...

Basically the GT-R was in good condition (Sounded unbelievable!) however not as good as oh-low s by the looks of his photos.

Had a look at the car up close the other day, as PAV34 said it was owned by a famous Japanese baseball player

who took it to top secret and spent about $30,000 on it.

Going to catch up with oh-low at some point to check out his 34.

btw:

Are there any local meets in which are going to happen in the next week in either Sydney or Melbourne?

Travel between the two states frequently for work.

Thax again

Mike

    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
