Scam for sure.

$6,700 and no phone number and it's still on carsales...

On another note, I wonder why scammers always ask around $7,000?

are you sure your looking at the right one? i cant seem to find it. and the one that i did see did have a phone number.

if i get the vin number off her can i check it with the rta or the police or something? ill only buy it if go see it aswell. maybe take a metal pole would be a good idea? hah

ive got an R34 GTR Vspec for sale if you are interested

$11,050 with 24,000 genunine kms on the clock and std vspec with exhaust

no phone number, you can't come and check it out, but deposit the money into my bank acct and you can pick it up a 3 days........

lol but thats the thing i dont get how can i be scammed if i can go see the car and if she does have a phone number? ill pay cash only

re-birthed, writen off and repaired, repossed car, locked in finance, engine mangled with unknown reliablity, other unknown car faults etc

there are many ways you can be suckered in so its your choice. once you pay the cash, guess where the contact goes to? disconnected number.....

please don't do it

its a load of crap

no right person in their right mind would sell a reasonable ER34 for that price

at worst you would put it at 11,000 and wait for people to call, $6700 is scam alarms

specially sammers like to make up believable stories and rely on the human factor of caring and trick you into thinking it's genunie

its the first way hackers break into networks etc, they use stupid human tactics to fool you and trick you

alright no worries dude i didnt think of rebirths thanks

there's so many wars to lure people in so just be careful. no one wants to fork over their hard earned cash for a nice appealing car to be ripped off

if you want to check out some honest owners and cars for sale etc come to the monthly sau vic meetings and meet some local members

at least you can talk to them and see their cars or ask if they know any friends one's for sale. also a good way to check prices and get advise before buying

we meet monthly

well im actually from NSW i was willing to travel to vic to pick it up, is there a nsw one?

Dude, you can pickup stockish r34 gtt's with a few mods for as low as $14k now from legit sellers. The prices are plummeting hard. R34's are getting old now (10+ years) and people are desperately offloading them. There is no record of those plates currently being registered with vicroads either so it is very likely a dodgy sale.

ah i see, no worries then, thanks heaps for that!

how can i check vicroads? and nsw roads?

http://www.vehiclestatuscheck.vicroads.vic...au/Default.aspx - only for Victorian Registered Vehicles though.

As for NSW, check RTA site but only show up if it's registered or not from memory.

Maybe what she is saying is true tho you never know, you could be getting a bargain, if your willing to risk the time and money to come and have a look at it then i would reccomend having someone do a thorough check on it, that would show if its a lemon or a rebirth and also do the usual vic roads checks which will tell you if its stolen, under insurance or has a current defect notice on it, if all checks out then you may get a bargain, if not you have wasted probably around $500 and walk away empty handed.

maybe it hasnt been re-regiesterd..or would it still come up?

i agree with everyone else...sounds like a scam..but do all your homework and if it turns out legit you got yourself a bargin

mm very true to the last two guys, how do you prove a rebirth, defects, and anything bad?? my brother said do a revs check? idk what hes on about. surely i could call rta and cops and stuff?

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
