my mates 34 vspec2 was in the workshop for 2 months waiting for a plate to get approved or somethin when he got his complied, dunno bout how much it cost him but u can find a place that does it here...

well, 34 plates were going to start out at like $5500, but seem to have dropped significantly. around $4000. So i think $4000-4500 would be a fair estimate.

my car has been at the compliance workshop for 6 months :P

R34 GTR's are a different world, a lot of recalls and parts are not cheap.

The one workshop I know that can comply them quote $10,000 including pads and tyres so the tyre kickers go away and they only comply good cars that buyers are willing to pay their fee.

Expect $7,000 to $8,000 plus parts for a proper job off a workshop that will be around more than 6 months.

Not need to tell me I am kidding either, R33s are $1,000 more so if it isnt in writing and not a test car price don't believe them as some people are under quoting to bring the customer in then hit them when they pick the car up, no payment no car.

i got two prices first $8,000 hence the second price $4,400. and there are cheap ones out there imports 101 had one for about $50,000 it's not that much more than an R33 GTR when you realy look at it just save your ass off you will get there

50k sounds about right for a used r34 GTR with high km's...

You think so , i like to see one for that in australia , actualy i'll buy all you can get me for $50 k in aus .

The minimum you will pay for a none accident 99 mod at a jap auction is 3 million jpy and it will have over 70 k ks on the clock and a lot of rust .

Add to that 80-100,000 jpy for fob then add 10% import duty + $2000 aud to ship it and customs q/t then add to all that 10 % gst .

Thats already over $50 k then add to that $4000 to compy it + 1000 for cheap tyres + you will probably need brake pads and maybe rotors .

At the very minimum you will be looking at $60k + rego about $2.5- 3 k .

I forget to add 5% consumption tax to the auction price as well .

Who is doing it for $4,400.

I can get you a plate for $4 k + tyres + brakes if needed + any repairs you may need .

The 4 K includes h/lights as well + all the usual stuff but brakes are very expensive for the gtr.

I can get a full set of GTR brake pads for $970 delivered, is it Zoran or Simon at that price.

3 different places in Sydney that will do a plate for $4 k , actualy one will do it for less and that includes a blue and import approval as well , a long way from 6+ k they were asking about a year ago .

This week a dealer who had 3 in stock was trying to replace it and it was that expencive for a good car and it was going to cost $80,000 to land it.

I was in Japan last november - december and i went to lots of auctions looking for a r34 gtr , i know you will pay over 4 million jpy at auction for a good series 1 car with no accident history and reasonable ks .

I saw a nur m-spec and they wanted 7.8 million jpy .

I ended up buying a 2001 m-spec .

    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox !
