My New R34 Gt-T Skyline

Hi All,

My name is Brad. Thought I would copy this little intro from the ACT Member's Rides thread.

Been frequenting the SAU forums for the past few months, until I finally registered as a member when I decided that I would take the plunge and get a Skyline of my own!

It took me about 2 months or so of searching, enquiring and inspecting many different R34s from all around ACT and NSW before I eventually came to own my "almost perfect" R34 GT-T.

I have had it for a couple of weeks now but haven't got around to posting on here till now...

2001 Model - Series 2

Pearl White

85,000 kms - not sure if genuine, but great condition leads me to believe it may be.

Manual

Factory Sunroof!

Basically 100% stock standard except for HKS Turbo timer and rear adjustable control arms and bushings (which I had installed).

Came with 20" rims on it and a spare set of 100% brand new stock rims which I have put on as I was not a fan of the 20s. (will hopefully be selling them)

Note the number plates which I am stoked about! Just got lucky when I had to transfer rego.

Current plans for it are:

Remove stock solenoid and install manual boost control+boost gauge - as I think it might be overboosting...

Turbo back exhaust - Stock one is a little too quiet/restrictive.

Decent panel filter for intake

Black/dark grey 18" TE37 style rims - can't justify the cost for legit Rays TE37!

Then ECU + Tune once I've got it to a stage I'm pretty happy with.

​Possibly thinking of changing the front bar but still undecided as it is really starting to grow on me.

Will be doing little details here and there, but basically just full "stage 1" mods and then I'll see from there. Just have to get back on top of money now after spending so much just to get it! ;)

The R34 GTR has always been a dream car of mine, and since I cannot afford to shell out for the "real thing" I settled for the next best!

I am on SAU pretty much everyday and look forward to getting involved in the Skylines Australia community!

But GT-Rs are boring.

Ditch the 20"s.

Why, I hear you ask.

Because...

That's why.

Welcome.

Rofl, yeah the first thing I did when I got it was take the 20"s off it... even before a wash.

So now I've got a spare set of rims for sale! :P

Very nice looking car mate, well done.

Kind of have to agree with the below, if its really want you want, put money towards that instead of pouring it into this... Having said that, your planned mods arent crazy.

Welcome!

welcome.

dont mod the car, put in savings for the 34gtr.

wish i done that.

i would own one by now.

Thanks for the warm welcome guys.

Already been seeing a few different Skylines around Canberra and getting/giving a friendly wave.

Also went to the SAU Nationals in Goulburn the other week, had a chat to a few people.

Seems to be a great community of people on here!

Haha yeah that might have been me.

Had to move the car since I had been parked elsewhere (next to a Supra) for a couple of hours and had tyres chalked.

Was pretty busy so I was lucky to get a park so close to the show.

Had some amazing cars there... got my friend hooked on Skylines too now after he saw some of the GTRs there lol.
