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.

    • 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 ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
