i bought my r34 25gt from there for 13,000, i checked everything and took it for a drive the only problem was the centre console's hinges were broken while everything else was perfect. ive had it for 2 weeks now and loving it ill definately go there again, he gets new cars in there all the time, turbo's and n/a's i'd recomend them to other people.

yea i got my car (r33gts-t 2) from power road and the guy there shane is pretty good on the whole.

very casual though dunno if thats a good thing when your putting down your hard earned (nearly let me walk out the day i picked it up without giving him his cheque :laugh: ) good thing is if your serious he will let you drive about every car in the lot without a worry duno maybe its an aussie thing just seems so not fussed with it all lol

when i was browsing around, he didnt approach me until he saw me with my dad. Let me test-drive r32's and was happy to take car to any mechanic for a pre-inspection.

Although one problem i had was he listed a car as 1993 when it was a October 1992. May not be a big deal but i wanted a genuine 1993 model.

I guess that's why he didn't talk to me, didn't take me seriously (I wasn't serious on buying any cars anyway :P ).

Just like Pablo101 Power Rd are the only dealer with r34's in my price range too. :thanks:

Went down there last week and a guy called Jeff was the first to approach me.

Unlike Shane, this guy knows exactly how to look after a customer!

In about 5 mins of looking at the only R34 25gt there he threw me the keys to let me have a drive (trusting an 18yr old with an R34 within 5 minutes in my opinion was somewhat of a miracle).

NO pressure at all to commit and he even bought my girlfriend and myself a powerade!

As far as i can tell their cars are pretty good (apparently all grade 4 auction ratings at least), although their yard isnt the most pleasing to the eye.

This thread is really coming along since its revival !

Keep the comments coming they're really helpful as i need all the info i can get before i buy my first car (and incidently first 'line :banana: )

hey guys, currently in the market for an series II r33. JSA is bad i was gona smash him... he was full of crap. I went to JAPCARs which is on the humeway they seemed to be ok,nice r32's and 33's but some of them had dints n repsrayed... anyway today i went to power road.. they had some nice skylines... im thinking of purchasing a s2 r33 2morow. I will tell u guys the outcome. Thanks so much for the information ;)

Geraus.

best place to buy skylines in my opinion is power rd car sales.

I had my R32 GTR imported by him. It was a grade 4 and was the best R32 GTR i could find anywhere.

they have a good selection and the prices are very competitive.

customer service is not the best but once they know you are serious, its all good

I paid 18k for my GTR

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
