Keen for a meet on the 30th, car needs a wash already drove to some property in stockleigh to take some pics n shit halfway there the road turns into a dirt road. Bald tyres + Dirt road + gtr = far too much fun.
Most people just assume that because its a 94 model is a V spec so thats probably the case here. As you said there was only about 1200 v spec IIs made but there always seems to be a plentiful supply
Don't worry about buying a V spec or anything for its resale value because the only 32 GTRs that are going to go up in value are the genuine low km fully log booked V Specs, N1s and Aussie delivered ones.
Just try and find the best condition one you can afford and buy it.
I'll add my 2c here since I was in a similar position to you not long ago.
When I first started looking at GTRs I wanted to buy a car that had a recent engine rebuild or at the very least turbos replaced with all receipts for work to make sure it was done correctly. The problem I found with this is that its difficult to find somebody who has rebuilt an engine without cutting corners. Its an expensive thing to do properly and things do get neglected. The other trouble with a modified motor is that it puts more stress on the rest of the standard components and you get other things failing. Clutches etc.
So after looking at a lot of modified GTRs that didn't really cut it I decided to start looking for something that was as close to stock as possible. My reasoning for this was that stock GTRs are a great piece of kit and are fairly reliable in stock form. Most of the reliability issues come from poor maintenance or modifcations. If you get a decent stock GTR and treat it right it will last a decent amount of time.
Make sure you service it properly and keep an eye on your oil and you should be right.
If your only looking for something as a daily driver then a stock GTR is fine. I use mine as a daily and its a great car to drive everyday. Buy it, maintain it and love it you won't regret it.
PS. That black v spec looks worth a look.
lol class
touche, half my family are sparkys they're all cockheads though
Real men have to be in work for 5:30 tbh
they must be the days before his chocolate dick shake
Very nice I would love to do something like that but got no time, money or space atm. After uni is finished with and I've got more time and space at home I'lll sort something out, long way to go yet.
Are you a mechanic/apprentice for work?
Yea my ass is still sore from the yen raping I received. Atleast its not as bad as paying $600 for shipping on $800 wheels
Love the concave look on those rims Dave. I haven't seen your car yet. This thread needs moar pics
Going to ERD on Tuesday for a service so I'm going to talk to Dan about the Bilstein/King Spring combo he has. I've been on the waiting list for them for a bit over a month so they should be close now Wheels arrive on the 7th of May fingers crossed.
These are the ones I've got on order

Hey Funky this is the car I was telling you about last night. 18 x 10.5 + 18 all round. Absolute sex on wheels. I think all that had to be done was the guards lipped. Would die happy if my car looks this good one day
thought I was getting a sore throat this morning but its just from the air con in the office i think. Feel like another one of those milkshakes now. I'm off to lunch, Toscany's steak sandwich mmm
Will be in for coast meets. I'm in Jimboomba so I'm pretty much in the middle of the coast and brisbane. I'll keep an eye on the events section n see what pops up.
