Hi All,

It pains me to say but my pride and joy is up for sale. :) Need to find a family car as there's a baby on the way (I attempted arguing the feasability of making a baby seat work in a coupe, however to no avail)...

The R34 GT-R has always been my dream car so it obviously goes without saying that this legendary motor vehicle has been meticulously cared for. Always garaged, washed, polished, serviced and driven by a responsible and mature enthusiast. No EBC fitted, this car has not been boosted or abused. I am the 3rd owner, the car was imported at about 80,000km from Japan by the 2nd owner in Melbourne. I flew there to buy it around 2 years ago after a long seach for the right Godzilla. Although fairly stock, as any GT-R afficionado knows, the RB26DETT is explosive and I'm gonna miss the sound and feel of this car. :)

The interor is A1, and virtually as it left the showroom. Exterior is excellent with only the odd very minor stone chip on the front bar that you'd expect from a 1999 model vehicle. When washed the bayside blue paint colour is absolutely beautiful. There is a minor shopping centre dent and scratch to the driver's side rear quarter which I am in the process of arranging to have repaired by a quality panel beater prior to sale. Overall any inspection will confirm that this car has been lovingly cared for and, in my humble opinion, with this colour, stance and wheels, is one of the best looking GT-Rs around. Serviced regularly (log books to prove) using Motul synthetic oil. Big-dollar 100,000km service has been performed with no expense spared. Minor mechanical maintenance has always been carried out when needed such as new brake discs and new front CV boots recently. Receipts for all such work performed. I have never had any dramas at all with this car, it has been an absolute pleasure to own.

I welcome any inspection but please no time wasters. The car has ICE including Kenwood DVD/GPS unit, Rockford Fosgate splits and amps/sub in boot however these will be uninstalled upon sale with original equipment returned in its place.

I am going to organise some better quality photographs prior to selling as I want a keepsake of my dream car anyway, once these are taken I will upload. For the moment the linked pics will have to suffice. I have included some of the car as it was when I purchased with white Nismo rims and minus the clear indicators which I added later. To answer the inevitable questions, yes the car is badged as a V-spec, however it is not a V-spec. This is how it was when I bought it, I don't know why the previous owner saw fit to badge it as something that it is not.

    • Next, remove the upper and lower radiator hoses, both are held with a spring clamp. While you are under there, tackle the Auto Trans cooler lines.  Again both are held on with spring clamps, and as mentioned above you should cap them on the radiator side with an 8mm cap, and on the car side loop them with a length of 8mm pipe - this will stop you losing a dangerous amount of AT fluid during the rest of the job If you've been meaning to add a sender for AT trans temp, this is a great time to do it; put a sender fitting into the passenger side line as that is the inlet to the cooler/radiator.
    • Next you need to remove the intake duct (as with pretty much every job on these cars), it is a series of clips you gently remove with a flat bladed screwdriver. They do get brittle with time and can break, and I have not found a decent quality aftermarket one that fits (they are all too soft or flimsy and don't last either) but the nissan ones are a couple of bucks each (ouch).  Once the clips are off (either 8 or 10, I didn't check) you lift the intake duct out and will see the reservoirs Undo the line into the radiator side cap (some bent needle nosed piers are awesome for spring clamps) and then remove the 4x 10m nuts that hold both in place.  I didn't get these pics, but remove the line under the radiator reservoir (spring clamp again) then remove that reservoir. Then you can get at the intake reservoir, same thing, spring clamp underneath then remove it. BTW This is a great time to put in a larger (+70%) combined reservoir that AMS makes..... https://www.amsperformance.com/product/q50-q60-red-alpha-coolant-expansion-tank/ They also make an Infiniti branded and part# version if that is your thing
    • To drain the Intake Heat Exchanger, there is a crappy drain plug in front of the driver's side front tyre: You should use the largest headed phillips screwdriver you had, and in my case I needed vice grips on the hose above as the plug was tight (tighter than it needed to be, since it has an o-ring seal).  After you have a tray down and open the drain, open the intake heat exchanger reservoir cap (drivers side one) and you should get a couple of litres of coolant To get to the radiator, you need to remove the plastic engine undertray. It is held on with a series of 10mm headed bolts and some clips. For the radiator, there is another type of crappy drain (kind of like a plastic banjo bolt) and you should attach a length of hose to direct the stream of coolant per this pic (otherwise the coolant hits the rad support and goes everywhere). The drain is on the rear of the radiator on the driver's side and a bit hard to find. Put a big tray or bucket down (5l won't be enough) and slowly unscrew the fitting by hand. You only want to remove it far enough for coolant to flow, it you unscrew it right out the whole fitting and direction pipe will come off and you will get a coolant bath (yum!). Undo the radiator reservoir cap and it should empty about 8l
    • So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You also need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator so you will need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. 2 other tools that really help dealing with coolant lines and spring clamps are Bent Needle Nose pliers Hose pliers Between them they will reduce the frustration (and injury) potential by about 1000% Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic
    • If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.
