Hi all,

Been snooping around as a guest for awhile and now I have decided to become a member n join the happy family =)

Reason why I am posting is that I am looking to buy a used car within the next month after more searching around.

Anyone recommend any shops?

I looked at power road seems ok.

Plus I am still on my probation at work and will finish in 1 month time. Anyone know of any finance places that let you go on finance during probation?

cheers all! look forward to replies from the experienced ones.

Yeah the power rd dealer is decent quality some other import dealers just from the top of my head would be SSV on princess hwy and another one on hume hwy I forgot the name but from what ive seen they have decent cars but if you go private make sure you get it checked out or check it out yourself if you know what your looking for.

I've just bought mine about a month ago :D. I checked out quite a few places when looking for mine. Dealers prices were way above private sale. Ended up buying mine off a member from here. Not sure what state your from but in Vic It was hard to find a good one that was near stock. I looked at around 12 I think in total for private sale. Found problems with almost every one. Then found this one and so far its perfect :). Just take your time, dont rush into buying one straight away.

If your looking at a skyline, chances are it's been modded even if it looks stock. Save yourself the money (because you will probably end doing the same mods) and buy a lightly modified one off a member on the forum, someone that actually cares for their car!

Hi Baruna,

Nice to meet you and welcome to the forum.

I brought mine from a private dealer but mine is 100% stock (It's a GTv so no one bothers with them cos they're non turbo)

There is another import yard on Edwardes Road Reservoir, just down from BMSRUS (BMW Wreckers) never dealt with them but I've noticed them a few times when getting parts for my Beamer.

I'd agree with everyone else, check out the For Sales section on the forum. Depending on what you're looking at spending, one of the girls is selling her pearl white R34 for 15,000 from Vic

Hi Hi everyone,

thanks for all the feedback! its great that the people in this forum are so caring.

Cause I am still on work probation, my banker suggests me I get a loan (as I require some $$$$) after my probation is up.

So...probably won't get one for about a month from now...

Didn't know there was a seller section in this forum as well, thanks for the heads up.

    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
