Found this in a car yard when I was in Dubai last time. 4000km on the clock. Appart from being dirty and someone had badged it, It was like brand new and went for a steal. 110,000 Dirham's. That converts to around $40,000 aus. I couldn't believe it. I was a day late, It had already been bought by a mad Scottsman that was working over there. Dubai is a great place f you want to get really cheap car's.

I believe John's old R34GTR came from Dubai

.... and those photos of the red R34GTR - 4,000km my ass - it had a big single aftermarket turbo on it .... you don't do that to a brand new car - surely???!!!!

Oh, and Hi Greg, hope your Middle East trip is going well! ;)

they also wear some pretty weird clothes. i havent seen anyone in a white looking kimono in a 10 second gtr before. if they are as fanatical as their cars as they are in their attire then we should see some crazy cars from the middle east soon. good to see the skylines are getting some world-wide recognition that they deserve!!

It does take a bit to get used to, them wearing the white x-ray gowns.

Either way, I'd tend to stay away from Dubai, I understand it is very much Westernised but none the less there is still a high risk.

I thought the same until i was there. It is just a big westernised tourist city and the locals know it. Had no problems over there. But, everyone has their own opinion on the matter:)

    • I was just driving into work and while on my drive, I went to accelerate and noticed the car would sputter/hesitate and I’d hear a few pops from the exhaust before it started going faster. Then I also noticed that when I push my clutch in, the car would die. This all started happening today. Any ideas?
    • That is a lovely Volvo, just saying. Yes I should have got an 260RS when they were cheap. I do regret now.
    • ^ lots of good points made above. The thing is, "aggressive" or "flush" fitment is relative depending on how much you have been influenced by social media. My starting point is always "look at the Nismo RWD specs". That is where you should start, then start measuring as GTSBoy as sort of mentioned, because every car will be slightly different. My 8.5"+35/9.5+38 will not be "flush" enough for you because you want more "pumped" look, which is why you measure. Tyre sizes and brand/models also make a difference. Some tyres are more chunky/square, some are more rounded. That means you could get away with more aggressive offsets without rubbing. But then it also depends on your ride height. Also depends on how much your car copped damage before being shipped from Japan. So it goes back to measuring your car yourself and determining what can work. Those Nismo specs are used bacause it's a safe spec for standard car (suspension. body) with chunky tyres. But then I put 265/35 wide tyres on R34 GT-R wheels, and currently run 285/30 tyres on 18x10 wheels.
    • Sounds pretty awesome. I recommend creating a new build thread and posting all your goodness in there.
