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.

    • Put a fuel pressure gauge on it. Replace the turbos. Probably completely separate issues.
    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
