Go buy the GTR

Then tell us what it's like once you are inside the inner sanctum of the GTR/Melbourne GTR/R33 GTR owners club!

Yeah.. there's many options on the table.. some are 'easier' than others.

It's going on a hoist at Micolour today. Will have to physically have a look under there and see just how destroyed it all actually is.

The whole write off, buy back wreck is an option too, lots of messing around though.

Engine swaps are not always that simple either.

Only thing more Victoria proof than a boring auto R34 sedan, is something that is actually EPA proof

but.. 330kw @ 3500..

Went through the exact situation as yourself

R34 write off

Buy back off insurance

New engine swap

Was a pretty straight forwardish process

Were you with shannons?

How much did it cost, relative to what the agreed value was?

Some people have suggested this actually ends up 'making' money.

Who did the job?

Did you just do the engine, or the entire driveline, suspension, etc?

Mine is auto, there'd be a lot of wiring and random junk to do to. Most/all of which is undocumented and highly shit.

Pretty sure the assessor wouldn't know what his looking for mods wise so should be a low buy back value

Going to guess about $2k

    • Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.
    • List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter? 
    • @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...
