Yep we've been chatting for a bit.

He's given me a login to watch the auctions but obviously I'll get better results committing and giving him the finders fee.

I have a really hard time doing that knowing I can't inspect or drive the car.

Pass on that purple 33 imo.

There's a cheap white one for sale in WA. Light interior though.
Info is a bit slack but I'll copy paste for you as its only advertised on Facebook.

R34 GTR V-spec
$55,000

1999 vspec
Z tune front end.
Built engine. Still twin turbo.
515hp tuned by Fabcar
97xxxkm's

Pm for more info.

Nice car, but prefer something that is Silver o Bayside with dark interior.

I can get away without the interior as that's easy to swap in, external colour is another matter.

WA is miles away too =\ Why is there so many 34s there?

OK update time.

Gun metal R34 guy called to say he's been pulling the front end down a little and can see signs of inner guard repair due to new seam sealer but said an inner guard only goes from radiator to strut on the GTR not the firewall.

Said he and the panel beater are happy with how it was done (he's a mechanical engineer) and that I'm welcome to inspect and photograph myself.

He said the same for radiator support but he couldn't spot any signs of removal for the cross member but did notice the lower radiator support was also replaced (whatever that's called).

He said he's less concerned after inspecting but thanked me for alerting him.

He also noted that the auction report he was shown displayed an auction grade 4, so bs.

Good to see select owners going that extra step, as it's likely news to them as well.

I'm a mech engineer to but I wouldn't know a thing about that haha - best to leave it to experts if you decide to pursue this one further.

Safe to say this one's still on the books for you?

It better be a shade of MNP or some Omori Factory treatment for that much. Or at least notably better than any local AUS example in that price range, to even consider.

Reminds me of a R32 GTR Iron Chef posted with an S1, R35 Brembos, R34 6sp transmission - arguably one of the best I've seen, around the $80k mark as well

Nope it was just a low k's vs2 in Ws2 and with mostly Tomei gear. Still standard bottom end but the full list of bolt ons and including things like endless frotlnt calipers.

Clearly a track car.

That's part of my issue is that 34s like the first one don't seem that common for the money (Inc all spares etc)

I could just play hardball and offer less, want all spares (as he talked about keeping the power fc) and if he says no, then so be it.

that requires a comittment of a days driving to inspect it though and the knowledge that I'll need a build sooner than I might otherwise due to k's

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
