Hi All, First of all I would like to thank everyone's for helping each other on this forum. I have been reading posts here and there but dont get to spend much time here due to work.

I am looking at buying a R34 GT-t but I am a bit puzzled in terms of maintenance costs (I normaly do all my service by myself), availability of parts, anything in particular I should look at when inspecting to buy.

I am going to inspect a couple of imports tomorrow (Here in NSW) and would like to get as much feedback as possible by lunch time tomorrow.

Coming from driving SV6 and XR6....used to do all work at home, My first ever nissan was R31 Ti, loved it to bits.

Looking forward to be part of this community.

Peace out !!!

NOTE: Sorry admin if I have posted in wrong section.

If from a dealer try to see if you can locate its details before it was imported, to make sure it has the right km's.

Correct.

Just Jap at Kirrawee to-day was recommending the same thing to one of their customers > Get a copy of the (Japanese) de-reg certificate.

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
    • Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
