which would you buy, the turbo r34 2door or a N/A 95-96' supra being that my budget is $30,000? for this $$ i'd be looking at an auto version of ither  :kick:

For $30k, you'll get a TT 6 spd Supra. IMHO go the Supra... I took one for a drive, and had a ball.

n/a supra's are still fairly quick, good old supra engines, but yes if you want somehting newer maybe a gtt is the way to go as many supra's are now getting a bit long in the tooth.

TT supra shouldnt be left out of consideration so test drive all three vehicles i say and get what you like best along with what suits you better...

for 30k, u can look at TT supras

anyways, i had the same dilemma back when i got my car ..

from my budget, it was either a 99 r34 gtt or a 93-94 tt supra

r34 won due to:

* Newer, as the supra was approaching 10 yrs old. Though i love the supra, i couldnt convince myself to spend the $30k to buy a car of that age

* Supra's are becoming more common in syd (not to say that r34's arent but relatively there are a few more supras running around than r34s)

* Its my daily driver, so big power and drag battles arent on my priority list

however, with that said, i wouldve picked a 97+ supra if i had the chance =)

been looking around to night and came up with these as the leading examples so far:

http://autopages.autoweb.com.au/cms/usedca...77/vehicle.html link to r34 gt-t

love the nismo kit on the r34....

thank for the replys guys.......

p.s. as of this afternoon budget may have gone up $13,000 as have strong interest in my HR30 coupe....

"links and pics are prime examples of what i would be buying not saying i am buying either of these"

My Choice GTR33 (Anything from $33k --> $55k)

THEN

SUPRA TT (My friend just picked up a 96 Model Black TT Supra wif FMIC and exhaust compiled 98 with 80k kms for $30k after bargaining) Nice car, good power BUT not practical what so ever, back seats useless Boot is useless..

THEN R34 GTT ( i don't really like this car.. too over priced)

thats my 2c..

GOod Luck!

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
