Mark from SSV was driving it for awhile before this was put up for sale. It's already in their yard when I bought my V35 off them in May. I used to go there once or twice a week to check the progress of my car for about a little over a month. So I have seen it in flesh many times. All I can say is overall it's a pretty straight R34 GTR. No major dents or marks. Engine looks ok with some minor mods. Sounds awesome too. 55k is on the high side but their cars are usually pretty neat. So they might have their reasons to justify the price.

P.S. If they tell you the Ks are genuine, don't believe them cuz Mark himself told me they are not. :blush:

LOLOLOL ...... WOW, you'll be popular.

It is a V-Spec model + the interior looks decent for it's age, but if K's are "wound back" then fuck paying $55K for it.

Either ask for a lower price or go else where...

i bought my R34 from them and i wont recommend anyone to go there they dodgy

parts has come off that car cos i remember he tried to swap my HKS exhaust for the Apexi N1 that was in the Gtr.

first two days i bought my car, my manifold cracked, i told him about the noise before i bought the car he told me it was exhaust noise

i bought my car back in may when interfoiler bought his :), its been sitting there since then and the price was around 60k mark

i had a look at that caryard before i bought mine, and i remember asking about that blue gtr n the guy replied its my brothers (the owners) and i bought my car aug 09 so u can imagine how long its been sitting there

in terms of price, you can find for sale locally '99 GTR V-specs for 40 - $45k.... and i've seen 34 GTR's be imported for as low as $33k!

this one is in Vic, $42k

Yes, local ones seem cheaper than imports, but I really want a blue R34 :ninja:

Import for $33k? Where? Most cars from Jap Auctions go for easily over 2.5M yen and that's at least $45k+ landed, complianced + ORC.

It really depends on the auction. I did see someone import VSPEC2 34 on road for under 40K...its the game of luck...

Just ask Aaron at import monster... he imported a white R34 GTR 99 non-vspec which ended up owing him only $36k from memory

YES he did tell me that....that another lucky one got a great car for a bargain...

    • You will now be able to lift the parcel shelf trim enough to get to the shock cover bolts; if you need to full remove the parcel shelf trim for some reason you also remove the escutcheons around the rear seat release and you will have to unplug the high stop light wiring from the boot. Next up is removal of the bracket; 6 nuts and a bolt Good news, you've finally got to the strut top! Remove the dust cover and the 3 shock mount nuts (perhaps leave 1 on lightly for now....) Same on the other side, but easier now you've done it all before
    • OK, so a bunch of trim needs to come off to get to the rear shock top mounts. Once the seat is out of the way, the plastic trim needs to come off. Remove 2 clips at the top then slide the trim towards the centre of the car to clear the lower clip Next you need to be able to lift the parcel shelf, which means you need to remove the mid dark trim around the door, and then the upper light trim above the parcel shelf. The mid trim has a clip in the middle to remove first, then lift the lowest trim off the top of the mid trim (unclips). At the top there is a hidden clip on the inner side to release first by pulling inwards, then the main clip releases by pulling the top towards the front of the car. The door seal comes off with the trim, just put them aside. The the lighter upper trim, this is easy to break to top clips so take it carefully. There is a hidden clip towards the bottom and another in the middle to release first by pulling inwards. Once they are out, there are 3 clips along the rear windscreen side of the panel that are hard to get under. This is what the rear of the panel looks like to assist:
    • Yes. Autos typically work from the speed sensor on the pinion shaft of the diff. I also think that even if you have a proper speed sensor for the bog manual in the manual box, that the signal it outputs is not compatible with the auto dash anyway. You should consult that manual (the book, not the gearbox).
    • And I just realised that that advice is slightly nonsensical for a GTR, because you need 2 of them. But it is otherwise true.
    • Having had a reasonable look at the car, I'll be able to remove the (one time) rams and retract the hinge (they are held in the down location by a tiny (m3?) sacrificial screw) which will get it physically back in shape. From there if you remove the rams you need a resistor to turn off the airbag light (as Mark said, there are plug in kits and I might go that way because its reversible). And...per all the threads on here, even if you have the resistors to turn off the airbag light, the bonnet light will stay on as it writes to the airbag computer history - that is either replace the airbag controller, reprogam the EPROM (if I can work out how), or remove the globe from the dash. Having seen how sensitive this system is, if I had my time over I'd pre-emptively remove the rams, even on a road car, because this is all a very unnecessary pain in the arse. Reminds me, time to go and have a look at the Fuga too....
