Dude with the

- botched paint work and patch ups

- Misfire in a cylinder

- Atessa removed and all the wires sticking out in the boot

- Removed air con condenser

- condition of the interior

Unfortunately you wont be able to get more than around $12k for someone looking to buy it for a daily unless someone buys it for a track car and doesnt give 2 shits about that stuff

Excuse me?

- Theres one spot on the paint that needs to be resprayed, there are a few little wear and tear spots as it is an old car anyway.

- As I said to you, spark plug, which has since been replaced.

- Attessa cannot be removed, that is the 4WD, you are thinking HICAS, and yes it has been removed. Wires in the boot are the fuel pump relay.

- Air Con was re-gassed this Thursday and is icy cold.

- Seats need a steam clean, otherwise interior is clean.

Seeing as I've only had one Chris inspect my car, you are the guy who showed up with 2 of your "mechanic" mates who had no idea what they were talking about and your girlfriends, oh and at night time too, fantastic to assess a cars paintwork.

It's people like you that really do ruin the skyline scene.

It was fantastic when you came and gave it a "test drive" and drove it harder than I'd ever driven it, in a car you had no idea and had no responsibility for, in a residential street at night.

You are the typical tyre kicker who comes and "test drives" (thrashes), says he has to go inspect another, and I'll give you a call, yet never to be heard from again.

So not only did you waste my fuel, thrash my car and never contact me again, you had the audacity to come and talk shit on my for sale thread.

Before you inspect another car, you should learn a little more about them, rather than regurgitate what your so called "mechanic mate" has to say about it.

FKN LOL

car is owned by an apprentice mechanic from the most renowned GTR workshop in Vic and someone that we all know well in Vic.

If he says the car is in good condition... it is. end of story. He has too much to lose by ripping anyone off in the sale of a GTR.

i can honestly say i dont think ive ever seen a gtr these days so completely UN-molested. let alone with the std airbox witch is as rare as rocking horse shit.

man if i was in the hunt for a gtr id snap at this. dont stress on what other say, true enthusiast will know what there looking at.

good luck with sale mate

Hey mate,

I have some questions regarding current state of car now.

- Was the misfire in the cylinder just a spark plug? After the plug was replaced, did the misfire and very rough idle go away? So it's dead smooth like a new car idle now? (other RB26s can idle pretty smooth from my experience)

- Just confirming Attessa is still working properly? I know you have the controller in 2WD mode.

- If your air con was re-gassed how can it be working? I recall all the lines were completely removed and no belt was on the compressor? Also your climate control unit was reporting some crazy ambient temperature, does "Auto" air con even work?

- 89 GTR is it? Does it have the original engine with the short oil pump drive? No replacement motor from a 92+?

Not trying to stir shit, genuine questions/concerns.

Thanks mate.

Not quite sure why everyone seems keen to bring up issues on this thread rather than just come and see the car itself or PM/Call me.

- We replaced cylinder 1 spark plug, rough idle went away for about 2,000kms and has since returned.

- Attessa has always worked, I don't know where anyone has gotten this idea, it has a Torque Split Controller that stays in 4WD mode.

- I put the lines back in 2 weeks ago, it was a half an hour job. It was re-gassed last Thursday and is as cold as an R32 can get.

- '90, as far as we can tell it's just a standard engine, don't know why everyone gets up in arms about the short oil pump drive, its a 20 year old car, what makes anyone think they can blow it up that someone couldn't in the last 20 years. You CANNOT buy a car like this, and expect it to last another 20 with no maintenance.

Yep sorry, my bad. Was just being lazy last night and replied to thread instead of PMing.

Would have been happy to edit post if i could.

Let me think about your new info. So you installed the air con lines and belt and the "auto" climate control is working as it should? (Just have to be double sure because it seems almost everyone I've encountered with an R32 lies about air con, no idea why...)

Thanks.

    • Cheers. Skyline is back on the menu, can’t get rid of it. It’s like a child you don’t want, or herpes 
    • I got back to Japan in January and was keen to get back on track as quickly as possible. Europe is god-awful for track accessibility (by comparison), so I picked up a first-gen GT86 in December just to have something I could jump into right away. The Skyline came over in a container this time and landed in early January. It was a bit battered after Europe, though—I refused to do anything beyond essential upkeep while it was over there. The clutch master cylinder gave out, and so did the power steering. I didn’t even bother changing the oil; it was the same stuff that went in just before I left Japan the first time. Naughty. Power steering parts would’ve cost double with shipping and taxes, so knowing I’d be heading back to Japan, I just postponed it and powered through the arm workout. It took a solid three months to get the car back on the road. Registration was a nightmare this time around. There were a bunch of BS fees to navigate, and sourcing parts was a headache. I needed stock seats for shaken, mistakenly blew 34k JPY on some ENR34 seats—which, of course, didn’t fit—then ended up having the car’s technical sheet amended to register it as a two-seater with the Brides. Then there’s the GT86. Amazing car. Does everything I want it to do. Parts are cheap, easy to find, and I don’t care what anyone says—it’s super rewarding to drive. I’ve done a few basic mods: diff ratio, coilovers, discs, pads, seat, etc. It already had a new exhaust manifold and the 180kph limiter removed, so I assume it’s running some kind of map. I’ve just been thrashing it at the track non-stop—mostly Fuji Speedway now, since I need something with higher speed after all that autobahn time. The wheels on the R34 always pissed me off—too big, and it was a nightmare getting tires to fit properly under the arches. So I threw in the towel and bought something that fits better. Looks way cleaner too (at least to me)—less hotboy, less attention-seeking. Still an R34, though. Now for future plans. There are a few things still outstanding with the car. First up, the rear subframe needs an overhaul—that’s priority one. Next, I need to figure out an engine rebuild plan. No timeline yet, but I want to keep it economical—not cutting corners, just not throwing tens of thousands at a mechanic I can barely communicate with. And finally, paint. Plus a bit of tidying up here and there.  
    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
