Hey Guys,

I'm interested in selling my R32 onwards and getting an R34 GT-T.

I'm just after some information on exactly what I should be looking for, any particular issues or faults with the R34, and generally just any information which I should know when I am hunting around to find one.

I am after a regular R34, with very minimal mods and preferably standard, around the 2000 year manufactured mark, would be great if it was a 2 door model with the semi-tiptronic shifter

Any information would be greatly appreciated guy!

Regards,

There aren't alot of 2000 r34s around there are more 98 and 99's around

If your after an auto should definatley be able to swing a good one for around $18000,

Don't be tempted to go too cheap I looked at 3 under $16000 and they were all shit

Thanks for the heads up mate.

Anything around the 1998,1999 or 2000 range would be great as I am just after something that hasn't been through many Km's (as I dont want to have to replace seats, belts, handbrakes and all manor of other shit that gets worn out)

I searched on Carsales, and there seems to be lots in the 12k - 14k region.

What should I be expecting to get for around 18K?

Thanks for the advice, I'm open to hearing what anyone has to say for input :P

If your looking at agt-t I wouldn't recommend paying 12k it's gonna have some problems

Don't be so believing of the kms alot are wound back I would be more inclined to go for something just over 100000kms that the owner has receipts for the 100000km service being done

Thanks again mate,

That's probably a good idea. I just want something that is genuine and not hiding some massive fault or accident.

Is there any real point into buying one from a dealership, or getting it imported?

From my understanding its cheaper to buy them from Japan, but getting it imported, converted to fit out spec and then repairs are a nightmare

would you know anything about that?

Never imported a car myself

Your gonna pay more for one from a dealership that has just been imported

If it were my money I'd look for one locally, I would only consider import if I was looking for a GTR

Others here might think differently

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By Duncan · Posted

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.

      Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
