They can trade in some GTR's and stagera for a few of out trophies!

I'd trade an R32 GTR for an E30 M3 Evo III or Ravaglia, even in LHD

There are an abundance of Skylines here, but with England about the size of WA I suppose its just more concentrated there, we only have a population of some 20Million, something like London??

Pardon my total ignorance BUT are there not many GTR`s in OZ?  Why not?

'cause they're friggin expensive here! Like $90k (~45,000 pounds) for an R34 GT-R and most people that buy them here are under 35 (generalising a bit).. which kinda means you have to be earning a crapload of money to be able to afford a decent GT-R.

And for that price here there are plenty of alternatives which seem to grab people that can be had for new with all the warranty crap (Boxsters, Honda 2000's, BMW's, HSV GTS, Mercs, etc).

Just done the conversions on those figures and they are all cheaper than the UK prices.

R32 maybe starts about the same.

Also an R33 but these will be VERY rough at this price and most are a lot more.

R34 we have no hope of getting at the price - would need around 100k aus for that.

$75 large for an R34 GTR in Australia??

Where would this be at? I've been keeping an eye on R34 prices

since I bought mine in July & I have not seen one for less than

$95 k.The last Unique cars had 6 for sale between $95 & $125.

These prices seem to be fairly stable compared to the R33 GTR.

For half the money of an R34 the R33 GTR is really great value.

A new Honda S2000 is $80,400.Not too much more to stretch to the R34 GTR & much more satisfying.Great with the top down & cruising through town etc, but the Honda really needs to be driven hard to get the best out of it & by the time the VTEC has cut in the R34 would be on the horizion.Nothing like the torque of

a twin turbo RB26 to motivate you.

On that note, I drove a new 911 turbo the other day & couldn't

believe how quick it was.It comes on boost much quicker than the R34 & just pulls like a train from 2000 - 6000rpm.Very impessed.

Pity they cost more than twice what a NEW VspecII R34 GTR would cost.

Great to see so many tough R34s in UK.Cant wait to see more here.

Do you guys drag your street cars over there?

Skyline fan.

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
