Very good clean condition

R34 GTR Wheel$

Gab coil overs

whiteline swaybars front and rear

Mate ive got a 2 door manual 25GT for sale with your basic P plate mods and low km's and im having trouble getting $16,200 for it.. best of luck selling it mate hope you do better off than me lol, in all honesty though i dont think ull get more than 14,500 for it

Is that all??? I know they arent worth too much but mine is one of the few which actually have internal engine mods and are tuned... Most arent gtv and have the shit brakes, and R34 GTR wheels worth $2k...

I guess ill wait and see

Unfortunatelty the "maket" dictates the price. If you want to make more $$$ - separate the GT-R wheels.

Since your car is a manual - I think you can also demand a little bit more. This is a good base for people looking to do de+t conversion as it has all the bits required. Good luck with it :thumbsup:

if its immaculate 17k max id say. Most people who are interested in a r34 cant affford like 17k to buy one straight up and would rather buy one for 15k and mod it themselves... or so it seems.

EDIT: woah just saw it was a 4 door... you'll struggle to get anything over 13-14 i'd say.

Well ive got some cool 17 with brand new A-drive R1s so i might put them on it and advertise for $15700???ono and ill keep my gtr wheels

Find the cheapest pair of stockies around with RWC tread on them and use those. Very few P platers are going appreciate decent handling mods, but the engine mods might.

To be honest in my eyes, I'll appreciate most handling mods over an engine mod for my NA. But in saying that, I'd sell the GT-R rims separate as you have a good change of making a little more cash out of the whole sale :thumbsup:

I'd appreciate them too, but lest face it. The vast majority of potential buyers (young guys) are going to want to brag about how fast it goes in straight line, rather than how fast they can take it around a track.

    • There's plenty of OEM steering arms that are bolted on. Not in the same fashion/orientation as that one, to be sure, but still. Examples of what I'm thinking of would use holes like the ones that have the downward facing studs on the GTR uprights (down the bottom end, under the driveshaft opening, near the lower balljoint) and bolt a steering arm on using only 2 bolts that would be somewhat similarly in shear as these you're complainig about. I reckon old Holdens did that, and I've never seen a broken one of those.
    • Let's be honest, most of the people designing parts like the above, aren't engineers. Sometimes they come from disciplines that gives them more qualitative feel for design than quantitive, however, plenty of them have just picked up a license to Fusion and started making things. And that's the honest part about the majority of these guys making parts like that, they don't have huge R&D teams and heaps of time or experience working out the numbers on it. Shit, most smaller teams that do have real engineers still roll with "yeah, it should be okay, and does the job, let's make them and just see"...   The smaller guys like KiwiCNC, aren't the likes of Bosch etc with proper engineering procedures, and oversights, and sign off. As such, it's why they can produce a product to market a lot quicker, but it always comes back to, question it all.   I'm still not a fan of that bolt on piece. Why not just machine it all in one go? With the right design it's possible. The only reason I can see is if they want different heights/length for the tie rod to bolt to. And if they have the cncs themselves,they can easily offer that exact feature, and just machine it all in one go. 
    • The roof is wrapped
    • This is how I last did this when I had a master cylinder fail and introduce air. Bleed before first stage, go oh shit through first stage, bleed at end of first stage, go oh shit through second stage, bleed at end of second stage, go oh shit through third stage, bleed at end of third stage, go oh shit through fourth stage, bleed at lunch, go oh shit through fifth stage, bleed at end of fifth stage, go oh shit through sixth stage....you get the idea. It did come good in the end. My Topdon scan tool can bleed the HY51 and V37, but it doesn't have a consult connector and I don't have an R34 to check that on. I think finding a tool in an Australian workshop other than Nissan that can bleed an R34 will be like rocking horse poo. No way will a generic ODB tool do it.
    • Hmm. Perhaps not the same engineers. The OE Nissan engineers did not forsee a future with spacers pushing the tie rod force application further away from the steering arm and creating that torque. The failures are happening since the advent of those things, and some 30 years after they designed the uprights. So latent casting deficiencies, 30+ yrs of wear and tear, + unexpected usage could quite easily = unforeseen failure. Meanwhile, the engineers who are designing the billet CNC or fabricated uprights are also designing, for the same parts makers, the correction tie rod ends. And they are designing and building these with motorsport (or, at the very least, the meth addled antics of drifters) in mind. So I would hope (in fact, I would expect) that their design work included the offset of that steering force. Doesn't mean that it is not totally valid to ask the question of them, before committing $$.
