That's tough, i gotta ask, can you negotiate on price for cars like these? Not that i could ever buy one or would negotiate over one but do people haggle over car royalty?

Youd be suprised, some people try and haggle - my attitude towards the people that did that (from my import car seling days) was to show them the way to parramatta rd where they can haggle and get a lemon.

Seriously, i gave them a map with the directions!

I can understand a bit of negotiation, like rego or new tyres, but some of the offers were crazy low from people who never came through anyway. Still with that said, asking for new tyres on a car like that says a lot about a person ;)

Been in, would rather have the 400R as its the real deal

the thing that put me off immediately on the mines car is

"Odometer 14800"

yeah, right. For a 1999 r34, 9 years old.

....since the ground up rebuild :wub:

like wise with this company (whilst having an excellent rapport with the global JDM industy) claiming "Bayside Blue" and "Nismo Suspention kit" aye.... :blink:

Yeah, they fkd up ;)

lol the 400R popped up last week - I was gonna list it on my site for fun, but I've had problems uploading pics. Seriously, I think websites are the reason I have no hair.

That would be a lot more than $90K to bring it here, by the way :blink:

Anyone seen any 34 gtr Z Tunes for sale ? i wonder what there going for now a days ?

That's one of those "If you have to ask how much, you can't afford it" situations...

Brings up an interesting point about what my N1 is worth though. One of 18 ever built, just ticked over 24,000kms (with books), with complete Nismo R1 engine and a heap of other Nismo gear.

moneypit, they do exist :P

I actually think that's a very good price on that 400R, Zele would be selling my car for more than that if they had it in their showroom.

    • 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
