Ok folks, here's the deal!!

My mate owned this car about 7 years ago, 3 years later he sold it to me, 3 years later again i sold it back to him, and he has had it for about a year or so now, BUT being a business man and running his own business, he hasn't had the time to drive it and has a company car. SO he has asked me to sell it for him(I have the car to sell), as i used to own it and know everything about it.

Ok the car is a 9/1996 model M Spec series 2, was imported waaaaay back in 1998 by the SVD president, and bought by my mate in 2002, bought by me in 2005 and bought back by my mate in 2008, So there's the history lesson!!

Over all the car is in great shape, apart from the usual blemishes like a crack or two on the front bar, there is also a dent on the rear pillar on the passenger side where a umbrella has fallen on it(will try and fix), and also the ariel wont go up. So there is the minor detail of the issues.

Below is the list of details of things on the car:

Apexi Power FC(No Hand Controller)

Darren 0412641522 or PM me! :D

This car has been well looked after for ALL of its life(168,XXXkms), early days it had seen "some" work done by Tilbrooks, but as of the last 5 years or so it has only been to see Shaun and Troy down at Boostworx for tunes and mods, servicing has been done by myself or my bro in law(Qual Mech). The sound of this thing under full throttle is amazing, and although both myself and my mate had plans for a squirt at Mallala(grip) it never happened, so it hasn't ever seen a track.

The price is higher as we are not in a hurry to sell, It is however negotiable, but if you offer something stupid you will be treated the same. Pictures are included of the couple cracks in front bar, and of the slight dent.

I have been thru a couple defect stations and have been let off, In the time i owned the car personally i never got any trouble from the cops, and yes it was driven as a daily, during day time AND night time as i work shift work! Also the engine bay looks very much standard apart from a pod!

Cheers

Darren

    • I got back to Japan in January and was keen to get back on track as quickly as possible. Europe is god-awful for track accessibility (by comparison), so I picked up a first-gen GT86 in December just to have something I could jump into right away. The Skyline came over in a container this time and landed in early January. It was a bit battered after Europe, though—I refused to do anything beyond essential upkeep while it was over there. The clutch master cylinder gave out, and so did the power steering. I didn’t even bother changing the oil; it was the same stuff that went in just before I left Japan the first time. Naughty. Power steering parts would’ve cost double with shipping and taxes, so knowing I’d be heading back to Japan, I just postponed it and powered through the arm workout. It took a solid three months to get the car back on the road. Registration was a nightmare this time around. There were a bunch of BS fees to navigate, and sourcing parts was a headache. I needed stock seats for shaken, mistakenly blew 34k JPY on some ENR34 seats—which, of course, didn’t fit—then ended up having the car’s technical sheet amended to register it as a two-seater with the Brides. Then there’s the GT86. Amazing car. Does everything I want it to do. Parts are cheap, easy to find, and I don’t care what anyone says—it’s super rewarding to drive. I’ve done a few basic mods: diff ratio, coilovers, discs, pads, seat, etc. It already had a new exhaust manifold and the 180kph limiter removed, so I assume it’s running some kind of map. I’ve just been thrashing it at the track non-stop—mostly Fuji Speedway now, since I need something with higher speed after all that autobahn time. The wheels on the R34 always pissed me off—too big, and it was a nightmare getting tires to fit properly under the arches. So I threw in the towel and bought something that fits better. Looks way cleaner too (at least to me)—less hotboy, less attention-seeking. Still an R34, though. Now for future plans. There are a few things still outstanding with the car. First up, the rear subframe needs an overhaul—that’s priority one. Next, I need to figure out an engine rebuild plan. No timeline yet, but I want to keep it economical—not cutting corners, just not throwing tens of thousands at a mechanic I can barely communicate with. And finally, paint. Plus a bit of tidying up here and there.  
    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
    • I assume clearances were all a-okay?
    • Shock tower brace is in +5Kw....LOL
