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

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Ahhh, I need the whole head unit. I definitely needed to roll back through and review your setup, ha ha! Neat setup they have going on. I just need a full double din head unit. But I want good and responsive. I might have to review what the likes of pioneer have out these days.

      34 de+t conversion using s2 stagea automatic transmission, engine harness and ecu

      By albyz34gt · Posted

      Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By Duncan · Posted

      Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?

      My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
