Hi Guys & Girls, ive been lurking around this forum for a rather long time. But I am finally in a position to get myself my most loved car, a R34 Gt-t. Being a huge n00b when it comes to the skyline, I am looking for as much help and guidance as your all willing to share with me. :)

So far I have been looking at getting my r34 from either Distinctive Imports or Autoworx, and i was wondering what peoples feeling where of these 2 dealers? Good and bad experiences would be good, however from what ive read the bad usually isnt recommended to be posted here. So if its really bad could you PM me and let me know about your experiences?!

both are respectable businesses but my vote would have to go to autoworx. alastair will look after you.

i've dealt with and bought parts from both and will never buy from reagan (distinctive) again, parts were fine but hes a bit of a knobhead sometimes

Well Autoworx is a SAUWA sponsor... Haven't dealt with either of them in terms of car purchases, but i purchased some parts from Autoworx and they were really good, really professional.

Im +1 for Autoworx, but i think you should check both of them out, decide which one you feel more comfortable with or which one has a car that you really like.

Good luck bud :)

Distinctive Imports!!

I bought my R34 GT-T there and couldn't be happier with it. The condition of the car itself was immaculate apart from very minor paint scratching on the passenger door which Regan willingly pointed out (I never even noticed it). After negotiation with Regan and Shaun, I got a full alarm system and built in turbo timer included with the purchase price of the vehicle. After I bought my 34, I decided to get a FMIC, 3" Stainless-steel turbo back exhaust system, front bar and TEIN shocks+springs put in. All of this work was done at Kensei garage (part of DC Imports). All modifications were done by Shaun and I have to say I was really happy with the service and effort they put in to my car. After the front bar had a trial fit with the intercooler, they had the bar painted and ready to fit up. When everything was mounted properly, they still had a few problems getting the front bar to sit nicely. Thus they endeavoured to make modifications to the front bar and intercooler mounting to make everything sit nice and flush and basically perfect! All parts were ordered in quickly and I was able to pick up the car earlier than I had arranged for. During the time my car was at Kensei/DC Imports, one of the interior lights wasn't working at all and Shaun kindly fixed that at no cost.

Regan also gave me good prices on the front bar and the tein shocks and springs he had lying around. DC Imports definitely have amazing after-purchase service and take care of their customers. Would highly recommend them!

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.

      Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?

      I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
