I didn't think anyone was compliancing 34 R's yet.

Some story about GTT and GTR having to be done as separate vehicles?

Come to think of it - didn't know anyone was doing 34 GTTs yet either...

nah nobody is doing the R34's yet NOBODAY and wont be for a couple of months. Its taking th GOV 6 months just to get to work shops to look over and acept there evidence. Lets say the first person to get them will be charging around $6,000 id say. And they will be able to get it to. So you find me a compliance company that can do it and we will buy 10 plates.

Also if you want go to the DOTARS website to look what cars are up. Only the R33's are eligble. And I dont think anybody is going to be doing the R32's but I did se a 4 door and a 2 door down at the docks today that were not 89's so maybe someone is doing the crash tesing on them. Damn I hope.

R34's are selling for 3million+ Yen (~$AU38K). No one is complying 34's at the moment. As soon as one gets RAWS approval I would wait a month or two - alot of people are going to get approval, just waiting on the 1st person to get through so they can use alot of their information to pass their own workshop.

They're SEVS eligible to come in and under the R34 series just about everything that meets the power ratio bullshxt can come in under one set of evidence (or so I've been lead to believe by the workshops I work with..) Two workshops here in Sydney who's doing the R33 said they were going to get the R34's done by March but the hardass engineer down in DoTaRS don't like what they saw...one workshop failed the intrusion bars last week.

$6k for complying R34's sounds a bit optimistic, one workshop have whinged about the evidence cars for R34 cost a lot more than the R33's which is true.

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the 2025 build re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I quite rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
