How Much Do You Think?

[Lucaas]

Hey guys i know it sounds like a kind of stupid thing to ask. But im looking to in the near future obtain a R34 N/A so here are the specs i would ideal like.

Model: R34

Transmission: Manual

Shape: Coupe ( 2 Door )

Motor: NEO RB25

Turbo: Prefered Not

And i would like it to be the closest thing you can get to stock standard. If Possible, Im in sydney and i have found alot of 4 doors going for like 8,500 in Victoria but not many in sydney so yeah. thanks guys

You've pretty much answered your own question. It sounds like you've had a look around and seen what they are going for. Depending on km's and condition, $8k sounds about right.

There's lots of threads about buying a non turbo skyline. There's some good points for and against. I'd have a read.

Good luck with your purchase!

thanks a ton mate i wasn't to sure if they would be around the same. But there is another problem i face. Finding one a little more local. i dont mind going a bit of a drive away after all i picked up a VL after driving about 3 hours to the place. But they are all classifieds for 17 grand. :S Really anoyying

There was an NA weapon going for 12k not long ago, the guy posted a thread asking if he was asking too much cos he couldn't sell it. A quick search should find it.

I saw a Neat Series 2 R34 non turbo going for 17000 on Ebay and another for 16 grand both are dream cars, and a white R34 on carsales going for 15grand its been up for a couple months, its sad no one has bought it, i guess when p platers call insurance they are shocked and back off lol.

this is also a huge factor; gotta work in whether you can afford to keep comprehensively insuring it. amazing the amount of people on here who post about cars being stolen with no insurance.

More years ago than I care to remember insurance in my N/A R33 used to be a total killer! I swear by the time I sold it I could have paid for the car over again with what I'd paid in insurance. I never needed it but am glad I had it and the car was so totally worth it. It's where my whole Skyline obsession began

I do imagine since that time insurance hasn't gotten any kinder to the youngens!

Isnt justcar offering something like 400PA for third party fire and theft for p platers, stupid not to take up that offer, but comprehensive is over 1500 for sure, not to bad if paid monthly, but like Kat said, ur easily paying off another car just on full insurance.

That was something I was prepared to cop though, I didn't want to be stuck paying a car loan with no car!

When I got my R33 I was paying 2600ish a year with justcars; now paying a tad under 2k with shannons. siiiigh.

Back in 2001/2002 when I had my N/A auto R33 (I can't believe I'm openly admitting to owning that ) I paid $2800 a year with Just cars! Didn't do myself any favours that it was my first car and I'd never had insurance before though.

Geez expensive for a N/A, Currently paying 2800 with just car for a R34 GT T and i thought that was pricey. Shannon wont touch me one because first turbo car and 2 no driveway to park in only in the street. which annoyed me because cats scratch my car on the top :'(
