Hi Everyone,

I've just started to get into Skylines and have decided I want one. The models i'm interested in are the R33 GTST although i'd prefer an R34 GTT and it must be an auto.

Can someone recommend a trustworthy dealer I can buy one from?

Alternativelty if someone here has one for private sale i'd be interested too.

Thanks,

Mike

I forgot to say that i'm in Victoria and obviously am interested in Vic dealers or sales.

There are heaps of skylines on sale in Victoria right now. You could try carsales.com.au or autotrader.com.au

But browse through the forums here first. You'd probably be able to get what u want. I wouldn't buy from a dealer as they are known to charge heaps more. But that's up to you. Good luck with your search!

don't go near any dealers.

try www.j-spec.com.au - they import cars but they've had quite a lot of R34's up on their lists at the moment...

I think there are a few more floating around in the big list as well.

I went to one dealer today and couldn't believe what he was asking when i saw the condition of it. Front spoiler had heaps of chips on it, scratches on paintwork, generally a very average paint job, gearshift material torn, rust on discs and well if it was being sold for $12,000 maybe, he wanted $23,800.

Thanks for the tips, i'll check out the J-Spec site, although I would prefer to buy one locally, one i can go look at, test drive and so on.

Thanks for the tips. My first experience with a dealer was funny, as i mentioned elsewhere he was asking around $23,800 for what turns out to be a very average example compared to what i've seen turning up.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
