wow, 164rwkw from a natro. must've had a bit of work done to it.

as for what to go, well don't pay too much attention to the kms on the clock as there is a very good chance that they are not genuine and the actual car has done much more. secondly, there is no M spec r33. you are actually refering to the type M (M spec is a version of the r34 GTR). pretty much every r33 GTS-T is a type M (with the exception of one of the models of the sedan), so don't bother only looking at cars that say type M in the description. if it is a gts-t then you can assume it's a type M. i know i'm beaing picky but too many (in fact most) people get this info wrong.

as for things to know about the r34, well a lot of parts will be common to both r33 and r34. for the parts that are different you shouldn't really find it any more difficult to find parts for either car.

as for which car to get, it really comes down to what you like the look of the most.

rb25neo is a much better engine, solid lifters for starters, digital dash so I dont know if they are harder to wind back. much nicer interior, feels more nible from what ive experienced, I preffer 34 for looks but that part is personal taste

not a case of winding back, they simply just put in the instrument cluster out of a car that has done less kms. very few people bother with physically winding back the clock these days. so much easier just to get a second hand one from the wreckers.

r34, a r33 in my books is not a real skyline, just a mangled ugly UFO car, which just somehow managed to crash into the Nissan factory, and steal a rb25/20 engine to blend in.

Neo is more responsive and also feel smoother.

+ the usual, less fuel less co2 etc etc.

also a r34 is absolutely sexy.

R34 mate, its simply a newer car, nicer interior your getting a car that was realeased first in 98 not 1993 (yes i know your looking at a series 2, but really theres minor changes with the interior). As people have said, the neo engine is better and newer. PLus you have had the R33.... time to upgrade not side shift.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though.

      Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno

      Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.

      BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
