Hi All,

I am currently negotiating in buying a yellow 34R located in Sydney south west (Campbelltown area). I have just briefly inspected the car and its looks to be in pristine condition. The current owner is a mature aged car enthusiast (also owner of an Automotive workshop in C'town area) and was evident that he kept the car in good shape. Has anyone seen the car on the road or know any info etc?

I plan to keep the car for awhile however the question is, how hard is it to sell a Yellow R? I dont mind it to be honest but heard that yellow is not for everyone..... Would you consider Yellow?

Sorry for the stupid questions fellaz!

Pretty sure i know the one you're talking about

Friend of a friend kinda thing, apparently it's immaculate but i haven't seen it

Yellow is a tricky one, i'd definitely own one but you've gotta be careful with wheel choice, really hit and miss with some colours

Would i buy a yellow one? probably not, but who cares.

Buy what you want to own, not what you want to sell. unless your planning to turn it around in a small amount of time or looking to make a profit.

shit buy a pink one if that's what you want.

i guess so. I dont mind a yellow R to be honest.

Regardless of the colour, It's a GTR ppl will look. lol

$45k is a lot to spend to get ppl to look at you...

I like that yellow GTR '10 4' posted, looks mint, would own, wouldn't care about selling. There's two sides to supply and demand, if a buyer wants yellow and your's is the only one then maybe they'll buy it. if a buyer wants blue, maybe there's a few for sale, he'll buy the nicest one or the cheapest one. it's not a commodity and very very subjective.

Just make sure there's an RB in there.

looks like a pac performance demo car, they might have put a 20B in it.

But seriously its rare and that itself is a good thing and at the end of the day the only person that it needs to impress is you.

Unless someone is willing to buy it for you.

I plan to have it inspected from Powertune this Friday prior to purchase. Fingers cross it all turns out well.

In regards to getting a vehicle history report, are there any site where you can get it for free.? lol

If you need to economise on a vehicle history report, then maybe a $45k 15'ish year old car is not really the right one for you?

why pay if you can get something for free?

That's like saying just because you're buying a Ferrari and can afford one doesn't mean you cant look to save a buck..

I like the yellow.. But if I actually bought one, it has to be blue.
Personal perference: Blue > MNP (any of the 3) > Yellow > Black > Red > Jade > Silver > White

For 45k and if kms are genuine and its a genuine car.. Yellow would do me nicely hah.

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
