  1. I got mine for about 41 - 42 ish, might come to 43 depending on the wheels i might put in still on the boat, will be landing around first week of Nov might do a thread ones the thing lands and in my hands I had to wait for a while as my budget was a bit low and were loosing nearly everything we are bidding and just when i though, it time look for white or silver one...... WON this I decide to import via J-Spec (Ben @ J-Spec being very helpful, this is my second import with them) as i could not find Black / B Blue R34 V-Spec for under 44K, which was my budget also wanted some nice goodies, which i got with the Car as well.. and it's 2000 model with updated dark interior so i am happy. but just waiting and loosing so many auctions does take it's tall... and did mention waiting Photo of the Car - yes it got Fake V-Spec II badge on.... did FAST it and came geneiun 2000 V-Spec Anyway on topic... 55K is bit too much for IMO , but no waiting
  2. But there check out system only accept US and Canada, how do you guys select austrlian address do you need to email them before hand
  3. she can get a Honday Accord EURO there almost "non depreciate"... specially in the Asian community and has EURO in it
  4. Can i ask, is it still wearing TE-37 look a like ROTA's, how are those.... lot of people say "mean" things about ROTA wheels... Will be interested !!!! but dam they look the bizzz
  5. Drive a Toyota Chaser as well, there are really nice cars and if you can afford the Manual, you will not be disappointed. they got 2.5 T VVTI engine, the one you will find in Soarer as well also 2001 Nissan Skyline V35 Sedan might be worth a look
  6. You seriously think about soarer and S-Type Jags (Social suicide buying any of them) Just buy 1998 TOYOTA CHASER JZX100 and be done with it Its Toyota and Import with decent looks It got your 2.5 Turbo VVTI engine Few Manuals available and got 4 door and big boot
  7. Just want to add left field choice... Mitsubishi GTO, Mates got one and it very decently equipped and goes well. because your limited budget the mitsu might be worth it, but you can get 1997 - 1998 Mitsubishi GTO "updated headlights version" for around 18K in Australia. Also there are shops that will do work on them for reasonable dosh... on another matter, you Got to be very patient when importing. my car is getting landed in Australia on the 19th Nov, then its waiting still for complance, though this is my second import, so i will get used to the waiting by now ..oh... how wrong i was
  8. Would be very interested to see as well
  9. Looks to be correct http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/V3...V35+timing+belt not sure if they need to change other stuff for 100,000 service, oil pump and other engine belts I know you need to do full transmission Clean and tune around 100,000K and injector clean as well, dont know about Power Sterling wheel system clean up.
  10. You only need the expensive transmission oil for V35 350GT-8 Sedan only as it has specially CVT transmission, "different to the Nissan CVT as fitted to Australian cars" but if you buying a normal V35 Coupe or Sedan "with Normal Auto or Manual", i don't think it needed if your car has done 95K, i suggest you do a full flued flush as you dont know the "Exact" KM it traveled in Japan. it is normall for Jap cars to have the KM wound back when i brought my V35 Coupe, i got this done and it did cost me around $450 100,000 service is around $850 was the quote i got, but i sold the car before 100,000KM, Never heard of V35 timing belt good for 200,000, not sure if that is a chance you would want to take !!!!
  11. Not sure about what people are saying 46-48, Few V36 370GT Coupes gone through auction recently "last few weeks" for a lot cheaper and sedan considerably cheaper the SP version is a bit pricey IMO and so is Black Color ones I was looking at importing V36 for a Few months after selling my V35 Coupe, but settled on a R34 in the end - personal preference for example - http://www.j-spec.com.au/featured/2008-Nis...pe_S-15370.html and these are dealer cars, so if someone is patient from Auction you can probably buy even cheaper and i know Silver V36 are bit cheaper in Jap, but still its lot cheaper than 48K
  12. Out of interest, someone like me.. who is only after mere 240 or so AWKW from a GTR, will there be any special benefits of sticking to this ECU, than lets say... common man ECU - Power FC
  13. Thanks Guys, it was not mentioned really on the auction report, but i though it looks similer I contacted GT Auto before for another car i was getting with HKS F Con, seems Few Jap R34 GTR got them now I am only after mild tune and they should be able to sort me out. When the time comes to put in some GT-SS (maybe 1.5 years time) will rip it out and put in Power FC or something, so i got lot more tuner choice, but maybe by then brisbane might have more people with HKS license to tune
  14. 2000 R34 GTR V-Spec
  15. This is only photo i have as the Car is in Japan, can someone who knows there ECU's can you tell what that ECU is To me it looks like HKS F Con Prov
  16. J-Spec Currently getting my R34 GTR through them and this is my second car via J-Spec being very good to deal with and very patient I got my GTR just 2 weeks ago "still in transit" after bidding and loosing at auctions for a while as i need V-Spec for Non V-Spec money Got a Black V-Spec around 61,000Km, non accident, Rust for 45K landed and complied, which i though was nice. They give you plenty of photos and report as well few nice goodies on it as well There are Few Nice Silver R34 GTR in Australia and some White ones, but no other colors unless you want to pay a lot of money by the way Aussie $ against the Yen has not changed much
  17. Good Luck with Sale There is fare few SILVER R34 GTR for sale in Car sales and you one is pretty much mint, looking at the photos I had a look at most Car sales.com.au cars and your one seems to be much better in terms of Quality and with the Turbo upgrade as well
  18. Nice but is it really healthy to just Red line like that !!!! - RB26 Known for span bearing and shit you a brave man
  19. Go hear and download the membership form SAU QLD is friendly bunch, i am sure they will love to have you mate http://www.sauqld.com
  20. Got an email from Ben that the site should be up either tonight or tomorrow
  21. going overseas tomorrow for a month mate i have singed a import contract with J-Spec last week, will see how it goes, when i come back Thanks for PM buddy of cause if you got some Spec's and pic's, please send to [email protected]
  22. You actually wrote the Sticky on Spec differences in SAU - (OO)SKYLINE(OO) , remember reading this my justification is R34 GTR is a "Toy" and a bit of a statement than a CAR, but Yes, i also agree that if you make your decisions based on sound argument R34 Stock with Mods win all the time. but i left the sound arguments side of the brain "turned off" when i decided not to buy a Mitsu Evo 8 MR or Nice R33 GTR N1 (was one for sale here some time back) LOT Less money and lot newer in the case for Evo 8 MR (not talking about locally delivered Evo 8 mind you) each to there own i suppose if anyone is interested, i made Spread sheet of how much it will cost to make R34 GTR a V-spec, with one worksheet "quality Jap Parts of Yahoo Jap" and another one with fiberglass on Carbon Parts " bodykit, suspention and MFD only not LSD" + Sticker from Just Jap of cause !! , so yes, i really needed a V-SPEC Guess i got way too much time on my hands
  23. I can PM about the first one, dont like to comment on stuff open forum second one is SAU sales section and is a really nice car he has mentioned that this is NOT a V-Spec and it standard GTR it got some NISMO Wheels, which are not cheap and if you ask him nicely you will see the Actual Price is very tempting I just don't like Silver for R34 GTR, other than that very nice CAR indeed
  24. Buying my dream Car and always wanted a R34 GTR and V-Spec just got that exclusivity and again personal preference IMO and we do have to sell it one day Stock suspension you need to replace as they are WAY higher and the Car have a odd stance
