G'day,

I'm Andy from the ACT.

I have been a toyota boy for most of my life and while looking for a chaser came across a decently priced 2 door R34GTT.

Seeing as a heps of my mates have skylines I thought i would give the whole Nissan thing a go.

It has 160,000 k's on it but is still really tidy It needs a few little things done to it, battery needs to be secured (the bracket is just gone and it is cable tied in place :S and the washer bottle is gone...from what I have read this seems ot happen when a FMIC is put in. So if anyone has an r34 washer bottle with pumps let me know..

For al lthe stuff that is wrong with it i still got it for a decent price.

Mods it has:

Full factory body kit with wing removed

Coilovers (from a quick look they appear to be BC coilovers (haven't taken the wheels off to have a look yet and like i said they guy just paid people to put stuff in the car and didn't pay attention to brands or anything)

Spitfire coils

FMIC

Pod filter and BOV

Some 17'' rays that need a respray but still look alright.

Some exceddy heavy duty clutch that is a bitch to drive in stop start driving

3'' into 3.5'' turboback exhaust.

Since the previous owner doesn't know when the cam belt was done I'm going to do a major service and do all the fluids, water pump, cam belt and plugs and anything else that looks like it needs doing.

That is about it really, still running stock boost, will probably wind it up to 12 until the turbo pops and put a slightly bigger one on and find a decent ECU and a good LSD and maybe even a shiny radiator.

Just thought I would drop in and say hi.

Cheers,

Andy

nice 34, I was in the market for a 2 door turbo nissan with mind set on the s15 - tried 6 s15s - the adm ones are slow as, but the jap ones fly! based on my experiences..tried a stockish 32 gtr, but nah too old / more problems likely, tried my current ride -black R34GTT, knew from that moment that this is what I want,..havent looked back since, just lost my licence for 6 months and looking lovingly at my parked 34 everyday...lol

Yeah I was actually looking for JZX90's and JZX100's and drove this and it just felt like it had a heap of potential fun.

It's a bummer that you lost you license but you must be saving a stack of money :P

    • The price of every automatic S2 stagea in japan has suddenly doubled
    • thanks mate, one of the reasons I even bought it to be fair.
    • I found parts on EFI Solutions webshop that seemed to be the accurate ones. I haven't gotten around to fitting the turbos back on the car yet since I still have to deal with the shitty crack in the engine block. But I'm confident that the bolts I ordered will fit. According to EFI they are also 7-16/24. The reason M11x1 got involved here is because it is apparently very similar to 7-16/24.
    • Well, to be fair to the car I've driven it daily for almost a decade now, although in that time only put on 50k, as it just recently passed 100k miles early this year. For the most part its been fine because I've been able to source parts from AUS like jacks jdm and a few places in Japan, some things like pads have been easy since 300z pads swap right in... I realize its probably at that time in its life i should find a new DD (but I rent and only have so much space, no garage) so new cars just complicate things. As it is older though, I recognize its about that time as with my '67 GTO to maybe side step and find an alternative, but if i can keep driving it... I want to.   That said, I may just look into a local shop that might be able to, problem is the mechanic I work with has limited space as a mom and pop operation, and he's a busy busy man, so id need to find out if he can keep the car in the meantime, which may or may not be practical for him. Maybe I'll just buy one off jacks jdm and get that refurbed /shrug.. just looking at options and what others may have to offer for advice on the matter. Like I said, its hard finding people around here who actually have one, I've had mine 9 and a half years and I've met 3 others, and they are all military, one was oem from 95 with 30k miles (rip that car... guy got hit after someone crossed s double yellow, totaled it)
    • I've noticed my rear springs sag a bit compared to the fronts. I have stock springs and KYB struts. The front wheels are pretty consistent in their ride height, but compared to the front wheels, one of the rears sits 20mm lower, and the other 40mm lower. This negatively affects the ground clearance, and also angles the headlights up. What are some some economical options for new springs? Or information like good spring rates, lengths  in order to find a suitable replacement etc Far from lowering the car, I'd prefer to raise it a bit to keep it ground clearance friendly.
