I can do the car for $20500 minus the boost gauge, upper links, N1 turbos and engineering($1000).

Or $23500 for the lot engineered

Possibly could do it $1250 cheaper on both prices if I swapped the engine for the other RB26 I have.

Now I'm off apprentice wages and moved back home I'm going to spend a lot more and buy a highly worked gtr.

Please call if your serious

No offence but if i remember correctly this GTR needed to have the engine fixed as it was on its way out?

If this isn't the car then i appologise...

Just that i remember it on J-Spec or Imports101 i think it was

I can personally vouch for the fact the engine runs, and runs well, nothing needs fixing on it from what i could tell.

Rowdy's a good bloke, and well in to the Skyline Club in Melb, he's not about to go stooging someone over this sale and giving himself a bad name.

Hi are you willing to do a compression test or leak down test for us interstate before we look into this seriously?

its a good price for a car here in aust.

thanks

Ther is nothing wrong with the engine, there was another gtr for salew that was red with a shagged engine. I haven't had a chance to even look at the car since I bought it but I should be able to do a comp test this w/e.

hi mate,

yes i beleive you , but for peace of mind as i would with any car, before i ring you and arrange a flight from brisbane to melbourne its nice to know compression on the cylinders.

as i'd do one before i handed over the cash anyway.

thanks v much.

ps - any more pics would be grately appreciated? ie here in aust.

thanks

Hi,

Thanks to your inability to please a potential buyer (all i ask is that you done a compression test) Ive took my 30k elsewhere and purchased another GTR.

I liked the look of this car and we would have done the deal by now if i knew it was all sweet. I had the money and wanted a GTR now.

On your Behalf, if you want to sell a car it doesnt take much effort at all to do a compression test.

For this reason, until i have proof otherwise, i beleive in my mind the car has a problem... you must understand that logic.

I was waiting for communication to say the car was good, i would of booked a flight, checked the car and possibly bought it.

thanks for your help, or lack of it.

Good Luck selling the car. It looks a beast.

Michael

If you were keen you would have called me. Reed the add! Stop talking s**t you are obviously just another time waster! I know the car is fine and I could have tested if if I knew you were really serious. I could have said that it was fine and all you could do was believe me but at least I'm not a liar. I have only just finished changing the turbos to the n1's over the last few night (wasn't at home on the weekend) so at least i know they're good and the car goes fairly hard with them on only 12psi. Next will be changing the spark plugs and change all the oils so I will comp test it then and then put it on the dyno. Just to let you know there was no blow by oil in the inlet pipes and the car doesn't blow any smoke and it pulls very hard down low and boosts early so I would assume that it has very good comp.

hey mate if your interested in doin a swap on a 95 180sx with 230 kw atw and run a 12.5 quater let me know if spent about 20 k on my 180 so its pretty full on if not hope u still got this car when i sell mine

cheers anthony

u can email me at [email protected]

Gareth can you email me some more pics at [email protected] Depending how the sale is going id be interested in having a look when i get back to Melb at the end of the month.

As for trade ppl, he also has an R32 GTST with an RB26, so dont know how keen he will be:(

Ppl i have personally found Gareth to be a honest and helpful person, as such i have full confidence that he is doing his best to keep you informed.

That is one wicked looking car; if that's not modified enough what is? :D

More pics would be great ;)

    • Cheers. Skyline is back on the menu, can’t get rid of it. It’s like a child you don’t want, or herpes 
    • I got back to Japan in January and was keen to get back on track as quickly as possible. Europe is god-awful for track accessibility (by comparison), so I picked up a first-gen GT86 in December just to have something I could jump into right away. The Skyline came over in a container this time and landed in early January. It was a bit battered after Europe, though—I refused to do anything beyond essential upkeep while it was over there. The clutch master cylinder gave out, and so did the power steering. I didn’t even bother changing the oil; it was the same stuff that went in just before I left Japan the first time. Naughty. Power steering parts would’ve cost double with shipping and taxes, so knowing I’d be heading back to Japan, I just postponed it and powered through the arm workout. It took a solid three months to get the car back on the road. Registration was a nightmare this time around. There were a bunch of BS fees to navigate, and sourcing parts was a headache. I needed stock seats for shaken, mistakenly blew 34k JPY on some ENR34 seats—which, of course, didn’t fit—then ended up having the car’s technical sheet amended to register it as a two-seater with the Brides. Then there’s the GT86. Amazing car. Does everything I want it to do. Parts are cheap, easy to find, and I don’t care what anyone says—it’s super rewarding to drive. I’ve done a few basic mods: diff ratio, coilovers, discs, pads, seat, etc. It already had a new exhaust manifold and the 180kph limiter removed, so I assume it’s running some kind of map. I’ve just been thrashing it at the track non-stop—mostly Fuji Speedway now, since I need something with higher speed after all that autobahn time. The wheels on the R34 always pissed me off—too big, and it was a nightmare getting tires to fit properly under the arches. So I threw in the towel and bought something that fits better. Looks way cleaner too (at least to me)—less hotboy, less attention-seeking. Still an R34, though. Now for future plans. There are a few things still outstanding with the car. First up, the rear subframe needs an overhaul—that’s priority one. Next, I need to figure out an engine rebuild plan. No timeline yet, but I want to keep it economical—not cutting corners, just not throwing tens of thousands at a mechanic I can barely communicate with. And finally, paint. Plus a bit of tidying up here and there.  
    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
