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: )

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

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required.

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I always wondered how you were supposed to buy a set of 24 buckets and somehow magically have every single one of them yield exactly the desired clearance. I would have thought you'd need to assemble a cam with either 12 "sample" or "example" buckets of known top thickness (or a single such sample/example 12 times over!!) measure clearances at every valve, and then do the usual math to work out what the actual "shimness" of each bucket needed to be, before buying the required buckets to make up he thicknesses that you didn't have on hand.

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      I now seem to be limited in power due to my rev limit/hydraulic lifters in my built RB25. I'm looking into converting over to Tomei solid lifters. Question for anyone that has done the conversion. I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  I don't know where I got this idea, as so far I see no mention of this in any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must be missing something?

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday. Now for some reason I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  But I see no mention of this on any of the Tomei documentation. It just states that I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!?
