Stephen took me for a drive when I was looking for my GTR and it was a very nice car. Full papers from Japan including purchase documents! Bone stock too mechanically down to exhaust.

Exactly what I was after. Definately not easy to find a completely stock (down to the original exhaust) bayside blue vspec in immaculate condition.

I remember calling him ready to book plane tickets to come grab it - but he already had someone local that was ready to buy and pay a premium.

May be sold by now as this was from memory, almost 6 months ago.

I just some how got lucky a few weeks ago when its sister popped up for sale in Sydney.

What's the bayside nur going for out of curiosity?

Cheers

I got mine locally, unless your getting something from say global auto that is unreal, or you can go to japan and pick a car out for yourself. I wouldnt really import one. Just being able to look at a car locally and get a feel for the owner is the best i found.

Also you can bargain locally better.

I was very happy with my local purchase.

So what went wrong? :P

My advice is to look across Australia dont rush and you will find something eventually , i spent a year to find two great cars!

Be aware of cars in Queensland espescially , make sure ADRs are completed as people get away with just seatbelts , my first GTR was unbelievably registered in Queensland with no intrusion bars , child restraints ETC . Also watch for half cuts + accident repairs

Hi guys,

So it has been a few months now and I am still looking.

I have decided that it is 100% a Bayside blue V-Spec II I want and missed out on a beautiful example in Tasmania recently.

Anyway, it looks like I will now engage an importer and start looking in Japan as I could be waiting quiet a while to find a BB V-Spec II locally.

I will let you all know how I go.

If I can't find a car locally I will go through Aaron at Import Monster to find me one in Japan.

Local Melbourne business for me and have been dealing with him for years.

Hey mate....I went through the same thing before i got mine. I ended up getting a 99 non vspec in bayside blue, which is the colour i wanted. very clean and all original. it took me 6 months to find though. but was much better seeing it in person for myself and taking it for test drive.

There is a Vspec II Nur for sale in melbourne & Gran Turismo autos on spencer st. its very nice. didnt ask what the price was but it looks great.

anyway hope u find what you are looking for.

cheers

Thanks everyone for all the advice over the last few months, it has been much appreciated. The search is over, I have just bought a car.

I have purchased a VS2 from WA, you might have seen it, plates are VSPEC2.

Can't wait to get it over here to Melbourne!

congrats mate.....great choice. would be great to see it. what colour?

Thanks.

It is Bayside Blue.

It is this one...

Just read the rest of that thread - let's hope your purchase isn't a HIRISK venture ;)

Should be fine, dealing with Collin ha been all good to date, we have been talking regularly.

Ouch. Some of the things said in that thread are not very nice.

Also hoping it all works out for you mate and hope the issues with the motor in the previous for sale ad are now also 100%.

Nice car, i'm sure you will love it.

Regards.

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
