just wondering how much youd pay for an r34 n/a, basically want 2dr manual with preference colour being silver, have found two in sydney, both 99 models, stock standard, one with 70,000km for 28k and the other with 36,000km for 29,000 however i find the 36,000km hard to believe, these are surely a tad expensive (both dealer cars) and really am only willing to pay up to 26k, should i be able to get a 2dr manual within my budget or are these decent prices? cheers

hi reggin,

I just got a '98 R34 N/A for $25,000 (but $4,000 less for trade-in of my old car = $21,000 owing), so yeah you're not far from getting what you want for $26,000. this car was originally priced at $27,000.

Mine is semi-auto, 2dr coupe, dark blue, 25,300KM, perfect inside, runs great. only downside? no spoiler.

you're lucky to be looking for a manual so you have so many more options than I did.

Good luck, keep looking and take your time like I did.

just had a look at the yellow skyline for sale on nissansilvia.com, very nice however however have just had a yellow lancer so dont want another yellow car,

not really all that keep on importing either, sure i could save 5grand but i think id rather buy one locally so i dont have to wait 3mths,

and WPNR34 maybe im looking in the wrong places but most of the gt r34s for sale in oz seem to be auto tiptronic and/or 4dr, any advice on where to look for more manuals would be greatly appreciated!

and do you really think the 36,000km for a 6yr old car would be genuine? seems a bit suss to me!

cheers guys

I dunno, most places I went to in Melbourne were selling manuals over autos. Just check out carpoint.com.au and carsales.com.au, compare the number of auto and manual Skylines available.

I was sus at first about the number of km, but yeah, to be honest there's no real way to tell even with log books/history. But irrespective of that, I still would of paid the same amount even if it had 70,000km on it so I'm happy with it. the interior is in immaculate condition so it doesn't seem so unrealistic. I've also seen a few '96 R33 skylines with around 40,000km. if only there was a definate way to tell :P

mine also has a Pioneer deck RRP $1,500, 18'' alloy mags on it and brand new tyres RRP $170 each too.

G'day Champ... I actually noticed JapLink Motors on Parramatta road were selling a 1999 GTS R34, not sure if it was 2 or 4 door (think it was 4), but it only had approx 40,000km, and was an absolute gem, they were only asking for $22,990.

The link is attached...

cheers mate, im heading to sydney next week to have a look at a few so ill add it to the list :)

  • 3 weeks later...

I got my 1998 NA R34 in perfect condition with 31000kms 2 years ago for just under 32000$. Had an Altia kit (often mislabelled a Nismo kit) and a massive spoiler. Goes well as well, and that's without mods. Good luck finding one which meets your budget - they are great first cars!

    • Welcome to my 2004 Toyota Mark ii IR-V Fortuna (series 2) With a 1JZ-GTE powerplant under the bonnet (hood) it'll give me plenty of scope for power upgrades. For those who aren't familiar with imports, the 1JZ-GTE is a 2.5L 6 cylinder VVTi engine with a single turbocharger. This has the factory R154 5 speed gearbox, along with a aftermarket 2 way LSD differential (brand unknown). Under the arches are a set of CST Zero 1 alloys, 18x9 +30 225/40 up front and 18x9.5 +15 265/35 on the rear. The car was quite low in Japan and there's evidence of the wheels catching the rolled arches/fenders. The tyre's aren't great so I'm in two minds whether to replace both or just the tyres and put up with the wider wheels on the rear. The car still uses stock brakes with the addition of some braided hoses. The exterior is stock with the exception of a BN Sports front bumper and a replacement Fortuna grill  Moving to the interior, the steering wheel has been replaced with a dished MOMO steering wheel (which will get swapped for my Momo Tuner for the time being) Defi Link Gauges are mounted above the climate controls and on the A pillar, the Oil Temp,Oil Pressure,Water Temp and Boost gauges should help with spirited and track driving  The stock seats have been replaced with some retrimmed Recaro bucket seats. Being a larger build these are a little snug, unfortunately the orange isn't for me so I'll look into replacing these down the line. Other modifications include a twin plate clutch, Blitz intercooler, Evolve alloy radiator, a stainless exhaust with decat, HKS EVC-S boost controller and coil overs
    • Apologies for the long read My R34 GTT was up for sale at the beginning of spring due to a few repairs creeping up. The strut tops needed replacing, roof and bonnet (hood) painting (yay for 3 stage pearl) and the underside stripped and treated. I sold the car which allowed me to be in a much better place financially. Leading up to the sale I was already thinking about the replacement. In an ideal world it needed to be a good all-rounder. Something I can mess around with, modify, do track days, do the school run, go on long drives etc.  Options included but not limited to... Laurel C35, Evo 8/9, Civic FD2, Impreza Hawkeye, Aristo and even an Audi S4 Avant (I've already got the Mazda 6 wagon). But there was always one car at the top of the list The Toyota Mark ii JZX110 I found an advert on a Facebook group for an example in Japan, from a seller called Jon at Rising Sun Exports. A few messages back and forth and Jon calls me from Yokohama one morning (or afternoon in his case). He briefly explained the import process, the costs involved and a repeat of the advert. After much deliberation, the price was agreed and the sale was locked in. I've never imported a vehicle so I jumped into the unknown head first. The money transfer was completed through wise.com (fees apply), very easy to use and the money was with him within a day or two.  The car suspension was raised for the vessel and the car dropped off at the port. It was 7 weeks later when the bill of lading was received and the freight invoice sent to me, followed by the export certificate a couple of days after (both digital copies) In the mean time the port had been in contact. I needed an agent to deal with the NOVA (notification of vehicle arrival) along with the tax/duty invoice, this was £75.00. The port also had a fee of £100, I'm guessing to cover the cost of the 10 day 'free storage' and for moving the car off the boat etc. They need a copy of the vehicle invoice, freight invoice and export certificate to allow the vehicle to pass through customs. The vessel arrived on Tuesday 5th August, the tax/duty invoice was generated and sent over. This is generally tax 20% and duty 10% of the vehicle value. Although the invoice came in at a higher amount than I had calculated. Once HMRC had received the payment the vehicle could be released from customs. I thought once the tax/duty was paid you could collect at any point, that's not the case. Your agent will need to book a collection slot, I requested Thursday 7th which was accepted, with a 9:00am slot allocated. It was a 5:00am start from Norfolk heading to Southampton. We eventually found the compound, upon presenting the bill of lading and some ID they released the car (they drove it out of the compound to the front ready for us to load up). The email from the port stated each slot had a 10 minute window, which seemed abit farfetched but the staff said it's not a strict rule. We were there for approx. 30-40 mins in total. A week prior to collecting I contacted my garage and explained the situation, I was able to get an inspection slot that afternoon. For the registration, DVLA require the car to be insured, for this I used a company called Adrian Flux who can insure the vehicle using the VIN number. 
    • Hey guys, looking for these side skirts if anyone can help me out. 
    • Wife and I are still looking for a new home. One condition was a large enough garage for a full-size lift in one bay. Now if only we could find something... We've been looking for almost a year now.
    • Thanks everyone for the ideas! Sadly, ramps are a no go for me. With young kids at home, I do most of my work late at night while they're sleeping. Starting the car multiple times wouldn't be a great idea.  I'll go see one of those new long reach low profile jacks and take a couple measurements to see if they will fit.
