Any importers or knowledgeable people out there know the average, or just a rough idea of the, price premium a V-spec II has over a basic GTR (34 GTR) when importing, assuming all things equal, say grade 4 stocker and just for shits and giggles perhaps Nur price diff aswell ?

or is it too varied to bother putting a number down ?

Price to import vspec II will most likely yield over 65-80k landed and complied. All depends on condition. In regards to the nur, mine was almost 90k landed and complied 4.5 grade (only cause of the k's). Now I'm not sure if colour has to do with anything fetching higher price but I find that pirvate sales here will be cheaper than importing (the yen is tough) but I reckon importing is for finding a top quality car if you do the research.

I'm sure the import guru's here can give you the best advice. This is just from my experience.

thanks mate. Yeh the reason I'm asking is looking around at private sales a V-spec II is only around the 55-60k mark (obviously there are some more expensive ones out there too) and a plain GTR is around 45-55k so not a HUGE difference, but I was under impression importing a V-spec II would be around the 70k mark so just wanted to clarify :)

thanks again

perfect advice. with the way things are right now with the aud and with the current car market and the japanese market you would only really import a GTR to be able to chose from the largest pool of cars and have a chance at finding a really special or rare car or just one in fantastic condition. but if you want a average condition R34 GTR at a bargain price then you should probably be shopping locally and haggle with local sellers. It holds even more so for R32 and R33 GTRs but still applies to R34s in my eyes.

cheers baron, tbh I would rather a VERY clean stocker than a cheap already modified car. But will look around a bit more and see what the potential difference is.

I want something as close to stock as possible, dont mind intake/exhaust and rims and stuff, but nothing thats really modified, built engine, big turbos or anything like that

Also I'm specifically after a white V-spec II, so I figured importing would have a larger pool to fish from

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
