I'm in the market for a R34 GTT Sedan and came across this mob. They have a couple of Sedans for sale.

I've read a few threads on them and they seem ok. I wouldn't pay $13k for it though...offer them 11.5k - 12k probably. I've seen 2 GTT sedans go for 10k on this forum in the past 2 months....

What do you guys think? Clean car? hard to tell with their PS'ed pics.

link is for the search engine for their site....try another link for us to know what car you looking at...

i got my sedan from there and im happy with it , my one is a manual series 2 i payed 18k and dont regret it.

the price sounds fine to me , shane is good to deal with he will let you take it for a drive and will let u get it checked anywere you want .

he looks and talks like a dodgy car sales person but in all honestly he is a genuine bloke and is happy to help . have fun trying to get the price down though lol, hes good when it comes to getting thigs added like rims or alarm or different exhaust but the price is the price and you have to battle to get the price down, go have a look in person he wont push you to buy

another one that caught my eyes. But the most likely fake K's, the crappy spelling and the hmm (no offense) name leads me to think it's gonna be dodgy.

can a car be imported, complied and NOT registered, sitting on your doorstep?

[VSPECT]

looks good and cheap to me...the car looks great....the price is good...mechanics is what you need to check out but from what i have heard, his cars are real good...

[maddowse]

you have to have compliance plate to get reg , so yes is possible i dont kow why they wouldnt reg it though ??

YES it can...my car was sitting in my garage awaiting resgistration inspection for few days....complied and imported ofcourse....the guy must have just imported and brought it back home from compliance and didnt bother registring it...it can happen..

About the ks...looks fake to me too...but try to source out a service manual of the car...might help if he has one...service stickers around the car helps too...one guy ages ago bought a 32 gtst and said 70k on the clock but there was a jap service sticker of 120k....so look for that too....

I spoke to the seller. He said it was complied via Kamikaze. Its not registered though...its in Campellfield.

Am I allowed to contact Kamikaze and ask about the car? Or is that breaching privacy etc etc...?

They're almost definitely fake. I'm guessing the reason it's the price it is that it was a REALLY high km example that they bought at auction for cheap (hence the price landed here), wound back the km's and put it up for sale. Legitimate low km examples still fetch a premium in Japan, they wouldn't be at the bottom end of the market. It's common sense.

If it's too good to be true, it is.

Btw, I thought Kamikaze were going bust? Quite a few people were having problems registering cars they'd bought through Kamikaze into their name a few months back. Haven't read anything since.

Worse probably an accident damaged car...

You can't comply a car with previous chassis damage, but that doesn't mean some dodgy ones don't slip through. Like I said, if the price is too cheap it's too good to be true.

id stick with power road as i said hes good to deal with

Should I book a full inspection with StateRoads to check out the car?

[llama_au]

So you're not interested in my car?

[VSPECT]

the racv car checks are bull...all they do is visual checks...if you can hear anything wrong..nothing is wrong..lol...waste of money imo....never heard of stateroads..new organisation?

[llama_au]

Stateroads aren't new. Their checks are far stricter than RACV. Do a search on Stateroads on this forum.
