First bit of advice, buy one WITH premium it's definitely worth the extras trust me.

There are a few boosted guys in the V-Series Skylines section, post a topic in there.

You can find a mint black manual for around $20,000 mark STOCK. Turbo kits are $5,000+

Just beware you need to buy a JDM double din facia dash in order to fit an aftermarket sound system- http://www.ebay.com/itm/JDM-INFINITI-NISSAN-SKYLINE-G35-DOUBLE-DIN-DASH-KIT-DUAL-ZONE-AC-CONTROL-/251142407258?_trksid=p4340.m1850&_trkparms=aid%3D222001%26algo%3DSIC.CURRENT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D11%26meid%3D1818557018950828729%26pid%3D100011%26prg%3D1005%26rk%3D1%26

V got a 34gtt sedan and 350gt fully optioned premium spec coupe.... Get a 34gtt speciall if u don't know much about cars plus they are already turbo. 350gt is heavy on fuel and uncomfortable if ur a big bloke, but will be cheaper on insurance

It's heavy on fuel subject to how you drive it.. i get around 500-600km to a tank city driving. They are VERY comfortable cars, i have the premium pack with leather interior and i'm 6'1 and i could almost fall asleep driving they are that good. And cheaper on insurance, that all depends on the individual, your comments are very biased..

To answer the OP's question, like i said before definitely post a topic in the V-Series Skylines section you will receive a good amount of information on the 350GT's. I also think it might be difficult for you to find one exactly as you have mentioned as a lot of these cars are Premium models.

The good: They are powerful and reasonably priced cars, 206KW at the fly stock. They are very attractive cars, attracts attention as a big population of people don't know what they are. Very modern in terms of accessories and features.

the bad: they aren't cheap to buy parts, servicing is an issue as most places don't like to touch them, insurance is through the roof, suspension bushes are shit from stock and need replacing pretty fast.

I can think of a lot more things to mention but i'm at work and can't give a fully detailed post at this point in time

Lol 6ft 1 and 50kg wet? Or like me 6ft 4 120kg back pains and knee problems from footy and working my ass of as diesel fitter, so come weekends or time off i dont enjoy the 350 as much as i enjoy the 34 due to space and comfort?So please tell me how my comments are bias young fella? Or is it cuz u own a 350gt and nothing else that everything is all hale glory for your type of car? Old matey here asked a question and I just gave a quick 2c throw in on my thoughts. Btw hks do a supercharger kit for the 350gt pricey at about 7k for everything u need to bolt on

6'1 and i weigh 83kg. Fair enough being that big you may find it uncomfortable, but i assure you everyone else that owns one of these that is smaller than you will only have good things to say about the seating. Can i just say this reply is hard to read too.. I love the R and V series Skylines, shit the R34 GTR is still a dream car of mine.

I had the exact same dilemma not too long ago, ended up buying an R34 GTT black with sunroof :) whichever car you go you won't be disappointed 350GT is a great car but IMO it lacks the sportiness and personality of the R34. It's more of a luxury prestige car than an all out sports car, so really depends on what you want. Prestige and comfort then go 350GT. FI kits are also a lot of $$$ so take that into consideration. There is some discussion about stillen & hks kits so be sure to read all about that.

There is also a fair bit of variation WITHIN the 350GTs:

So be sure to know which car you're actually buying (year / trim / options etc)

But most importantly TEST DRIVE BOTH. It's the only way you'll know for sure.

Good luck.

    • Initially I thought having a pair of Recaro seats would be a big bonus, it turns out these do get a little uncomfortable on long journeys (my fault, not the seat). I had a look through the GSM Performance website at reclining seats and booked an appointment to visit their show room. I got the Recaro Sportster CS for the R34 from here, was very happy with the service received so of course a re-visit was in order. Unfortunately the two Corbeau seats I had chosen aren't on display but they had 4 other options available. Two seats dug into my back, one dug into my legs and the other was perfect. I also found out that Recaro seats use a larger bolt pattern so some adaption was required. Luckily GSM offer some universal adaptors that should solve this problem. I searched the interwebs for price comparisons and Corbeau themselves were the cheapest at £300 cheaper (for the pair). I asked GSM if they could price match, unfortunately they couldn't. I later received an email saying Corbeau would honour them the same discount, but the purchase was already made. I did however order the brackets from GSM, both arrived on the same day. I started with the passenger side seat, knowing this was going to be a little trial and error. There are 3 mounting holes at the front and 2 at the rear on these JURAN Racing seat rails.  With the adaptor brackets mounted, the allen cap bolts started to push into the seat, NOT GOOD!  The rear mounting holes lined up but there were issues at the front. The holes were 1/2 hole out, so the brackets got a tickle with the drill to modify the holes. The supplied bolts weren't going to be long enough and a spacer was needed to stop the adaptor bars from bending. A local fasteners company supplied be with some nylon spacers and longer bolts (M8x30, although these will be replaced with 35mm long shortly) A before and after I pre-drilled the front bracket before making a start on the driver's seat to save some time. And in no time at all that was in the car too. The all black seats have transformed the interior and these are MUCH more comfortable. The only downside with the new Corbeau seats is I sit a little higher, but I'll happily accept that over discomfort. The Youtube video can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPyttKPktXA
    • All 3 I guess. The car came with the JASI Aero 4 door Type R Full Kit unpainted so this was one thing at the top of my list to complete then I noticed there were body panels parts for this kit so i picked them up along with some black mesh to fill in the front bumper and front side air vents. car is at a paint and body shop atm completing this work. Next I will be addressing the internal bells and whistles, great summer project I can do with the kids.  full interior removal - ,boys car sound deadening - pads and spray ,boys stereo, sound, lighting - Big 3, GTT or bigger alternator ,kids head lining - dye black add star lighting mod ,daughter. That's it for the next 5-6 months. I have some motor maintenance  work i have to plan out. oil filter relocation, gaskets, mounts. beyond that, mind is starting to turn over if i can use a DET intake plenum, block off turbo ports & pipe in a air intake.      
    • roller coaster of a ride. Alarm system was removed & main harness was repaired where possible. still no fix just random successful starts. moved on to the replacing the ignition switch and relay. well all this troubleshooting & repair has been going on, the car is at a paint and body shop being pushed around. Ive been going down there on odd days after work to get it sorted.
