Hi guys,

As topic title says,

What would you consider a fair price for this r34 gtr? Assuming the kms are genuine. Sold with auction papers but no de-rego papers.

I've had a look over it and looks like the drivers side front may have been in a bingle. Drivers side front wheel doesn't match the condition of the other 3 wheels.

New bonnet? and definitely has had a front bar respray.

I really like the all black interior.

Thanks for any input.

Justin.

$45K is about the going price for a stock and good condition / Base Model R34 GTR.

If it were a V-Spec then pay about $49K - $50K (stock and good condition).

If it were a V-Spec II then pay about $53K - $55K (stock and good condition) - $60K (if it were stock and tip top condition).

The trim on inside looks like vspec 2. So does the fuse box cover. Were these items different on later series non vspec?

I'm not sure, but It is listed as a series 2, of that makes a difference to the trim. I have just paid US$75 to get the Japanese history on it but that could take up to 10 days.

Good work mate. Best way to go. Its hard to tell from photos as interior and fuse box can be changed quite easily

Get it inspected by a reputable workshop and then talk price.

I'm a diesel mechanic by trade so I know what to look for. And I've owned an r33 r34 and a Stagea befoe.

Mechanically the car is fine. Other then little tell tail signs there may have been accident damage to drivers side front.

I've been looking at gtrs for around 2 months and this one seem a little pricey..... Compared to what they actually sell for...... Some v-specs go for anywhere between $40k for one nodded with 150000kms - $55 for an immaculate low kms.

So I'm just trying to gauge if the price is right.

So..... We agreed on a price, went to take one last look at it and pay a deposit.

Only I found more damage.

Driverside floor panel that flows into the guard has been replace and seems sealed using polyurethaned and its obvious. D/guard obviously replaced and resprayed. small damage behind strut. Then I also found p/side headlight mounts broken. So it looks like it may have had full frontend damage.

Then I asked for the auction sheet. It shows 79565kms car currently shows 79400..... Something is definitely dodgy here.

I'm steering clear. And feel sorry for who ever buys it.

hey mate, did you ever get the results of your japanese history check with the car? would love to know the findings if you dont mind sharing!

No it would have been a waste of money getting it, as soon as i seen how extensive the accident damage was there was no way i was buying it. Not to mention the dodgy papers and speedo.

I hope someone doesn't buy the car unaware of this crap. And get ripped off. I can only hope who ever buys it pays the appropriate price.

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
