FOR SALE:

1999 R34 GTT 5 Speed manual Coupe. Rego till Nov 2014, has 90XXXkm on odometer. Pearl black GV1 + 3M DINOC Carbon fibre pattern wrapped bonnet.

I am the second owner since it was imported into Australia in 2010. I purchased this late 2012, and so have had it for 1.5 years. Absolutely love it to bits, and if you see the little details on this car you’ll understand. Always bought best parts possible. Interior is in great condition, there is some scratching on the arm rest console, but the centre console and dash is in great condition – so is trim on the doors etc. All electronics work perfectly fine. Still have original Nissan keys. No log books though. I have receipts of work done and parts bought for the car. A lot of stuff sourced from Japan directly. Never been hassled by police.

Nismo single plate coppermix clutch + flywheel + braided clutch line

Immobiliser, alarm, central locking installed from compliance (AUS standards)

Interior:

Nismo gear knob

18% Tint (actually not sure on percentage)

Bonnet gas struts (from NYTSKY’s groupbuy) – carbon fiber, look and work awesome

I think there are aftermarket speakers in the car but not sure who put them in

Exterior:

3M DINOC carbon fiber wrap on bonnet (Done at an SAU event in 2013)

Nismo LMGT4s 17 x 7.5/8.5 (+35 offset each…I think) in original bronze, they do have rash from previous owner in Japan though. Put on fresh new NISMO stickers on last year.

Tyres are Nitto INVO, had them on since early 2013 and have driven less than 5000km since

Altia body kit from factory

SAU Sticker on rear quarter window (hahaha)

Nismo smoked side indicators

Things that may need attention:

Paint is fading on the top, seems to be various rainspots of fading too – I think from acid rain in Japan, because also when I had the car there was buildup on all windows which I removed with a product (still have it, forgot name now). Couple of dings on the sides from people opening doors (WHY ARE PEOPLE SO STUPID). Previous owner bumped the rear left, so there’s a chip and bit of panel gap. Gearbox chatter accelerating in 4th gear at 60-65km/h, gone after that – have a written report from JLM that it’s consistent with age of gearbox. Doesn’t affect driving at all. There are a 3 cigarette burns in the seat, either from previous owner or owner in Japan, not me as I don’t smoke (and you can tell if you sit inside the car)

------------------------------------------------

No finance on it. Always serviced on time, have changed spark plugs, oil, gearbox, diff oil, recently. Is a great car to drive, comfortable, stock power but is plenty for street driving really. Plenty of boot space. Can fit 5 people inside (has 3 seatbelts in the back). I’m looking to move onto motorbikes so am making the decision to let this go. Still has flare from Japan!!!! Note: does not come with all the trinkets/accessories in the car - and as you can see I have added a few woodgrain accessories, will remove and/or replace with stock parts upon sale.

Asking price is $16500 or Swaps + cash my way for a motorbike (must be LAMS approved), DON’T OFFER ANOTHER CAR

Small mods can be parted out (depending on item) just ask me in the thread. Not willing to part out any of the suspension bits (which are most of the proper mods anyway). If you want the car without some mods contact me and we’ll work something out.

PM or call/message 0422 eight three nine 8 8 8. Don’t waste my time.

Bump, just met another GTT owner on the weekend who also has the same nismo clutch as me. They also have the same sounds and they told me it's the nismo clutch, not the gearbox. So, that leaves the paint as the only bad point of this car.

    • I am getting the same issue. Did you resolve it? I just got it after installing my new super coppermix and literally the same issue, new fork, new 18mm carrier, release bearing that came with the kit and replicated the exact same sound. 
    • If you like - I have the STL files so I can email em. There's a couple of gotchas (i.e the holes are not threaded so you might need/will need) to utilize some M3 melt-in threads for some of the points. However if you want to be super accurate, and are willing to remove your calipers and your SHOCKS it's a really good tool. You also might need to scale the part that measures the tyre width a bit wider. It defaults to a 7.5in tyre and I mean who is running that. Luckily with the magic of CAD this is very easy to rescale.
    • jeebus. glad you weren't under it while performing the stunt. Also thanks for the link to the wheel measurer, exactly what I needed
    • In the older stuff there were very significant differences 2wd to 4wd, for example Stagea had strut front end for 2wd and double wishbone for 4wd so it was not minor to swap. From poking around the 2wd v37, it *looks* like it might be more possible; some of the parts specifically have "2wd" stamped on them which suggests the platforms are more similar. You'd still want to start with a 4wd half cut to swap stuff from though. I'd suggest if you don't have a tune on the ECU you don't really need one on the trans either. Throttle mapping is in the ECU side (and you can always use a Roar Pedal if you want the throttle to actually respond to your foot), and really if you are happy with the stock power you probably accept the stock trans behaviour too....its all made to be "sporty" not racey.
    • So, updates. I have not washed the car since it came back from Tassie. I've driven it around a bit but not got around to actually sorting it out. I DID raise it because I cracked the rear bar leaving a hotel which was very distressing. Interestingly, the car drives more compliant now that it's raised a fair bit (5mm front, 15mm rear). Also noticed that my FR height was 10mm lower than FL. So that's now sorted out, too. I also bought this and had it printed: https://www.etsy.com/au/listing/1576422240/wheel-and-tire-fitment-tool-universal?ref=shop_home_feat_1&dd=1&logging_key=08f604d9fa4cc383550ba985e6ac85cd5cac7fbb%3A1576422240 Now, if I was smart I would have taken my brake calipers off to actually use this correctly but it was evident enough to me that in the region where the caliper was... there was nothing to hit suspension/guard/arm wise. So I'm going with "it'll be fine" after using the tool to hopefully very precisely measure the wheel clearance. Also while doing this, I had the very VERY bad idea of jacking one of the wheels/suspension arms up while the rest of the car was on jack stands. I did this to see how the arm would travel. This all was well and good until the car slid off the stands and went through a fence. So don't do that. Incredibly nobody was hurt and there was only minor damage to the rear bumper as the car didn't have far to slide, and had 3-4 wheels on it. The only damage turned out to be the fence itself which was easy to fix, and a little bit of damage to the fibreglass rear bumper trim. I had already planned to try a touch up paint kit to fix the time I drove into my garage door to see if it'd help in the interim before I get it fixed properly. I used the Dr Colorchip kit after looking online and seeing everyone talking about it. Yes it's made for chips and not huge broken missing pieces and I'll be 500% recommending it for stone chips after using it for stupid things like me. This took about ... 10 minutes and looking at the half assed photo the 30 second job I did on the bumper corner was almost perfect just by using the tiny little brush and painting it in. The sealact stuff to remove over-painting is really useful, so if/when I do it again I'll likely slather the touch up paint well over it and then clean it up with the cleaning solution. The wheels should arrive in a couple of weeks. I am still kinda confident after doing a stupid amount of measuring (and borrowing a set of 18x10.5+15) that they will not fit because I overlooked something, somehow and flew too close to the sun. ALSO R34 GTR guard liners do not fit on a GTT. I bought the undertray brake duct guides and had the wonderful problem of them not fitting my intake, my oil cooler and the liners themselves were even worse. Attempting to fit them won't work in general - You would have to cut them up as another poster mentioned as the bodywork is different on the GTT. At least I can try to resell them. So instead of cutting those up, I cut up my old already-cut-up GTT liners and extended them by using some PP plastic and drilling some 8mm holes for some nissan clips for the 'extra' bit. Because I was happy to cut them I was able to mount them pretty damn forward so I now have some semblance of guard liners, and the brake vents seal the bumper from the bottom. It sort-of-looks like this, to give some idea - If you look at the GTR and then the GTT this is when I realised that I needed to seriously measure as the inside of the rim area is entirely, entirely, entirely different and could not take any internet measurements for granted.
