I have heard notional figures of AU$45k for the transmission and AU$75k for the engine (new prices) regardless of IF they can be purchased. Not that you would buy a crate motor for $75k (if you could) you would instead build something better etc.

If you have need of one and can get it cheap, grab it!

LSX-438, happen to know what a set of brakes are? Endless do a sweet adaptor kit to fit them to an older series R32/33/34 GTR.

If you were to ask for a complete OEM Nissan pad and rotor swap, i believe it will be in the vicinity of $8000 to $10,000 (and that doesnt include calipers nor lines). A full brake system would surely be $20k or more. This is for ordinary cast iron & cross drilled rotors mind you. However most people are buying aftermarket pads and rotors, which are about half these prices (and better spec too). If you have an OEM motor/gearbox/brake system and want to offload it, PM me please.

I wish...

I asked the question to see if it would be worth buying the R35 calipers themselves along with some Endless adaptors and some aftermarket discs. That would be a sweet stopping package for a 200kg lighter older series GTR (like mine).

Sorry, off topic.

So if something like this was to be wrecked you might be interested in some parts?

Hey idiot, leave the stupid comments out of the thread - their not welcome here.

Judging by the posts it looks as though you're trying to get your post count up - typical. You're not contributing anything at all,

eg

Exhibit 2

Exhibit 3

:) :) :)

Don't reply with shit that doesn't contribute!!

good luck with trying to get it over here mate....im sure if you did, youd basically be able to name your price on anything in it....plus the running gear would be an awesome retro fit into something like a 240/260z :P

yes we looked at buying it must be 6 months ago or more now. hopefully it's been well stored and is still in good condition. I thought it sold on ebay US?

the stuff is only worth what someone is willing to pay. but consider you could buy a wreck in japan for around $40K (or less) and import that as a parts car and I'd consider very carefully before you spend any decent time or money bringing it out here hoping to get $100K+ for all the bits.... JDM wreck would also be more desirable as it's RHD. also, that car was pretty heavily crashed, there have been a few wrecks around with less damage going for pretty fair money.

Oh my young friend.... if only you knew how difficult that task would be. You'd swear these 35's have a brain of their own, they know what you're doing to them, even without a battery in them! lol

someone do that please!!!

i couldn't see that black wreck fetching more than 25k

are you in the states? if not id get someone who has half a mechanical brain to check it out, and id assume with the new GTR a multimeter would come in handy to check all the electrics.

Being done ...

I might just bring the engine, transmission and brakes over and see how things go from there. It's all that's really useful on the black one.

Dude. Just put a price on it & see what happens. No-one here will put there hand up unless you put your balls on the wall & see what happens. Looks like a gamble to me. These things are that fast I dont think it will be long before we see a few local ones on the market like that (of course I hope not - but lets wait & see)

20 years to catch up? Hmmm. Didnt see Porsche at Bathurst 20 years ago. (But I was too busy drag racing Holdens back then to care anyway!!!)

    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
