This is no different to 99% of other jap imports.

This is what really pisses me off! I imported my car directly with around 50000 genuine km's (books). Im one of the few that has chosen to not install aftermarket clusters and roll the kms back and list the true amount of kms my car has travelled now its for sale. I have people contacting me saying my car isnt worth the money because its done 100k and habibs is for sale on lebspec.net with 43000 genuine kms on a 99 for 5k less.. so naturally i told him to go buy it. Its a fact that the majority of import skylines, including gtrs, have travelled a substantial amount of kms! If they haven't, and they actually have low km's, they wont be cheap because of the fact they have genuine low kms. I've seen a R34 GTR M-Spec with 12000 genuine for over 100k, and your telling me this blue one has 34k genuine and is half the price.. doesnt add up.

/end rant.

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

thats the same as me :P big thanks to iron chef imports, plus mine is in midnight purple II :D

I hear ya.

I got mine for about 41 - 42 ish, might come to 43 depending on the wheels i might put in

still on the boat, will be landing around first week of Nov

might do a thread ones the thing lands and in my hands

I had to wait for a while as my budget was a bit low and were loosing nearly everything we are bidding and just when i though, it time look for white or silver one...... WON this

I decide to import via J-Spec (Ben @ J-Spec being very helpful, this is my second import with them) as i could not find Black / B Blue R34 V-Spec for under 44K, which was my budget

also wanted some nice goodies, which i got with the Car as well.. and it's 2000 model with updated dark interior so i am happy.

but just waiting and loosing so many auctions does take it's tall... and did mention waiting ;)

Photo of the Car - yes it got Fake V-Spec II badge on.... did FAST it and came geneiun 2000 V-Spec

Anyway on topic... 55K is bit too much for IMO , but no waiting

Gratz! Which one did you buy? I've been looking at the local ones for a while now.

Black one with stock bronze rims , 48,000kms , $48k is a bit much but thats the best i could do !

Really happy though , its a beast !

    • Oh, also, forgot to add these photos I believe.
    • Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !
    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
