Hey guys,

Unfortunately it's time to sell the skyline, so up for sale is my 1999 R34 GT-t, manual transmission.

I am the first owner in Australia, I imported it in May 2008 through prestige motorsport, complied at SSV, had 100k service at RE Customs.

Car has done 141,xxx genuine kms (has books from Japan, see pics).

Hasn't had a whole lot done to it, just allowed her to breathe a bit better:

-Apexi air pod

-JJR bellmouth front/dump pipe

-X-Force hi flow cat

-Blitz cat back exhaust (with silencer)

-Splitfire coilpacks

-Blitz turbo timer

-Mongoose alarm/immobiliser

-Pioneer head unit

Car will also come with:

-Stock exhaust

-Hardrace front lower control arm bushes

-Spare pair of brake pads

-Spare oil filter

-Apexi AVC-R. I bought this second hand when I first got the car. Never had it put on the car. Like most people I had grand plans for the skyline, spent the money going overseas instead. May as well chuck it in to sweeten the deal. Comes with everything pictured.

-Also I still have the 'SKYLINE' lettering for the rear bar, that'll be in the centre console if you want to reapply it.

Selling the car as I'm trying to get a start-up off the ground, and need the money (or BTC) to put into that. I have a daily drive and this car hardly gets driven at all.

Will not come with RWC, hence the cheap price. I started getting a couple of things fixed to get it (dent pulled from rail, looks like it was used as a jacking point, have before and after pics below in case you're concerned it was a crash repair), replaced some cracked hosing, but when I took it in to get the engine looked at they said the crank case seals and head and rocker cover gaskets need replacing, which I don't have the cash to fix myself due to it being put into a start-up. Front caster bushes need replacing too (about a $100 part). I went overseas for the best part of a year a while ago, and the car sat in the shed for about 18 months, hence the crank case seals starting to leak. I looked up the costs for these issues (from memory it was roughly around $1500), about half of that is labour, so if you're mechanically minded you could save a lot by doing it yourself, if you're a mechanic you could fix it and on sell it for an easy profit or treat yourself to a R34 GT-t for cheap! Priced it so that you can buy it, do what needs to be done for RWC and still come out ahead. Am assuming people will be sceptical, especially being a skyline for $7k and this being the internet, so I am open to taking it to your mechanic workshop (not old mate's house in Frankston) at your expense for your piece of mind, or bring your mechanic with you.

Apart from that, as you can see in the photos the car is in pretty good condition. The money I had put away to get a RWC I spent on getting the rear bumper resprayed, had a car park scratch on the corner, has had new bendix pads fitted not long ago. Little scrape under the front, couple of imperfections in the paint, nothing out of the ordinary.

Interior is still looking good, especially for 141k kms.

Car still has rego so can be test driven for serious buyers (i.e bring a deposit or organise for us to take it to your mechanic to look at at your expense), however due to it not coming with a RWC I have to sell unregistered (have to take the plates back at sale).

Car has never been on a track, has never been flogged, has hardly even been driven for the last few years hence the crank seals.

Price is $7,000 firm.

I will accept Bitcoin for payment, if you choose to pay via BTC then due to crazy fluctuations the final BTC amount (equal to the cash amount) will be agreed upon at pick-up.

I can be contacted at twennyone @ protonmail.com (no spaces obviously), 0466 809 034, or DM me here.

Posting on SAU first because this forum is a great community and a huge help when owning a skyline. Will post around other sites a little bit after so you guys get first dibs.

Car is located in Bulleen, Melbourne.

Cheers,

Brenton

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
