been looking for a series three.... how rare are they...Crikey!

Pardon my lack of knowledge, what year model would a series three be? I have a 98 V Spec but never knew if it is a series 3 or 2.

Look at your seat's highlights... if they are pink then you are series 3.

There are other things, but that is the simplest.

So Series 2 have the blue highlights? i thought the face lift in 97 was the only change in series and that's when they changed from blue to pink seats, xenon lights, thicker front lip, etc.

believer,

Don't quote me but I believe Series 3 GTR start from a build date from Feb 1997-Feb 1998~... Only around 1500-2000~ Series 3 were ever built. Then they started producing the R34.

Cosmetic changes, like Red Inserts in the seats, red stitching throughout the interior (not pink thanks Gojira :) ), they have only 1 rear reverse light, and one fog light, Xenon headlights are standard. I also believe there is some structural changes, and Series 3 GTR's have better gearboxes.. Stand to be corrected.

Meshmesh, I still need to call you... Id L-o-v-e to take this thing of your hands!!

Matt.

Hi Matt.. Cheers, PS I've seen you car run, it sounds awesome. Maybe we can work something out, you supply & fit the Whipple Chargers (x2) for our boat, and we can work out good price on the car... :) either way I'll be heading down your way early next week, I might pop in.

Drop in, you never know whats possible.

Hey Simon, some crook had pics of your car for sale on ebay yesterday for a price of $7000. His email was [email protected]. He has been using a 2000 R34 GTR for sale also and claims that these cars are in Germany or Italy and wants payment there.....

:) cheers george, I saw that and notified ebay yesterday..

PS: Lucky I knocked back your original offers before you bought your GTR, You could have bidded on it @7K and saved yourself about $40K ;)

Well ... the car is sort of sold to a mate who wants it later this year, once the 34 deal is sorted out. In the meantime we are contemplating just biting the bullet and giving her a pampering with the final (insert french accent) "piece di resistance" a nice full engine rebuild/overhaul.. numbers we're tossing around are in 400's, but who knows and who really cares... I guess, we'll aim to build it for more than we really want and use 70-80% of that, so long as it's streetable/reliable... and not really interested in drag/dyno queening.

Cheers.

So I guess this thread is officially closed.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
