Yeah have seen couple of pics of it and it looks amazing. Have you considered importing? I went thru J-Spec they are really good you just tell em what you want, budget and they start looking only extra fee is 1200 on top of total car price. But a good service

A V-Spec II NUR just went through auction in Japan with 338,000 kms on it, the price? 7,000,000 JPY which is roughly $88,900 AUD!

Get a nice GT-R while you still can...

See my above post, importing is getting expensive now that North America and the Middle East are interested in these cars.

You can probably find a clean car already in the country for less than importing one yourself from Ja-pan.

WTF? man thats crazy, so R35's should start dropping then?

WTF? man thats crazy, so R35's should start dropping then?

R35s have been dropping for a few years now.

There are a few things to remember -

- The R34 was the rarest of the modern GT-Rs, there were significantly less of them made than the R32 and R33.

- The R34 had a few different model varients (like the V-Spec II NUR, N1 and M-Spec) which had reasonable changes over a normal R34 making them more desirable over a normal model than say an R33 GT-R LM is over a normal R33 GT-R.

- Americans are starting to purchase GT-Rs years before they are eligible to import into the USA and storing them meaning demand is greater and whilst supply remains the same, if not smaller. (There are certainly less stock ones going through auction in Japan each passing year).

- As of next year the R35 will be 10 years old and still in production (which I quite frankly think is lazy on Nissan's behalf, we deserve an R36 already)! Nissan hasn't had a production run on a GT-R even close to 10 years, ever. Couple that with the fact that the R35 was an international release (available in places brand new like the USA and Australia) where as the R34 was Japan only. There are a bucket load more 35s than 34s out there which means they are easier than ever to get your hands on one forcing market pricing down rather than up like the R34.

Haha :P

I've now been around the scene long enough and know enough people to know what's going on, but it's all common sense really.

As awesome and fast as an R35 would be, I'd take a nice R34 every day of the week. IMO they are the best looking Skyline/GT-R and will always have that bedroom poster/hero status. I think the smile factor of driving an RB powered R34 GT-R is where its at.

And here I thought you only knew about shoes ;)

    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
