I wouldn't trade this.

You will always be able to buy an s13, ceffy at a cheap price, but your car is not so easy to come by.

Everyone gets tired of cars and wants a change but I seriously think you'll regret it.

yeh i will regret it bigtime!! its going to be soo hard to see it go if i did sell it.

all my mates said just keep it, if not just put it in the garage and watch the price go tag on them go up.

i doubt i would find another jdm 86 again :(

hey mate, its the most reliable car i have owned (and i have a newish cars)and if you were to do/fix anything on it it would be dirt cheap beacause you can use the commen corolla parts on it. its not so much a drift car more of a highley respected classic thats going to gain price in time. it is cleaner than my olds man brand new ve.

if you were to get a australian deliverd ae86 it will be a pain of a daily due to it doesnt have power steering, disk brakes and aircon like my jdm one does.

and not to mention it cost nothing on fuel, it cost $45 to fill up and that lasts me a week or 2.

if you want to come have a look your more than welcome.

cheers

thanks for your detailed explanation mate!!! I may contact you later once I sell my car and come to inspect it !!! again free bump for a nice 86 !!!!!!!!!

Would love to buy but max cash I can get hold of is $6k, if you need it gone I can pick up asap

I think he said no low ball offers. I would consider 46% of the asking price a pretty low ball offer!

And I am sure he would have a que of buyers who could pick up asap at a sale price of $6K.

      Put a fuel pressure gauge on it. Replace the turbos. Probably completely separate issues.

      Recomended Coolant For Gt T R34

      By silviaz · Posted

      What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.

      Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!

      R34 4 door side skirt identification

      By Rezz · Posted

      No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
