Absolute tosser. That car does look familiar. I think it was for sale few months ago. Poor GTR. Thats what happens when price drops and idiots buy it. Hurts us more than just reputation with public and police. Insurance premiums always on the rise due to high risk with morons like this crashing them all the time.

Bit of a cockup by rego department and boys in blue. Bit of a long story. Bought an r34 gtt from NSW drove it here transfered it got the S style plate (old reissue one R and S aplha numeric) drove around for 2 weeks. Easter monday missus and I decided for a drive through Glenelg than heading north along the beaches. near West Beach caravan park tucked behind the fence was a police car checking the speed. I was travelling approx 40kmh cruising and checking the scenery. Went past no issues, police officer glanced as i went passed but nothing unusual. every now and then I check in the mirror to see if the police car had moved. nope was still there. 3 round abouts later out of nowhere I have a police car up my rear end with lights flashing................ here we go . by the way the car just went through regency inspection for ID as it is and no issues. nothing to defect, as mostly stock or nismo factory option items. only aftermarket item 19" wheels. Wasn't speeding, wasn't doing anything wrong so my assumption was: targeted due to the car and wanting to defect it. as I parked in the carpark the police car boxed me in (so i don't bolt ) got out of the car and walked towards the police car to see what is the problem. The younger police officer quite rude yells at me: Why em i driving a defected car and demanding my drivers licence. Quite shocked by the response I handed over the licence and replied:" sorry no its not defected" and tried explaining the story how i know the car is not defected. It was on deaf ears and I have been ordered to get back in my car till he does some checks. 15min later he comes out asking for paperwork and still sticking to his story about my car being defected and why i'm driving it and why did I remove the sticker. All new to me. I found the paperwork in the car with inspection pass, rego papers and original NSW rego paper and handed over saying to him check the car is not defected and I'm not accepting his accusations. he took the papers and again I was ordered to sit in my car for another 15min. He approached me and started saying why did I paint my car from black to white, why I'm driving it as its still defected etc...... At this point I was very frustrated. I replied to him car was never black always white from factory, never had flares never had any other mods that he mentioned. kept telling him this is not the car he thinks it is. than I was told off for trying to clear up things and not to argue with him. So i responded OK I wont interrupt till he finishes the story of what he thinks has happend to this car. story goes. I had the car defected, took it to NSW got it off defect there as its easier, drove it back here got it through id and got new plates. and then bought it of female owner on paperwork pointing to the paperwork i gave him. at the same time resprayed the car in white and to him car is defected and needs to go through inspection and i should be fined for driving it. At this point I busted laughing. saying to him that he has no clue what so ever. The female owner that I allegedly bought the car from is my wife, sitting in the car at the time. pointed out the car rego and my drivers is under same address. pointed out that our car again was never black and he can feel free to go over it. told most probably the issue is are the number plates. possibly they were on a black skyline that was defected and never cleared but rego lapsed. I bought the damn plates and in police system showing defected. told him to check the Vin and engine number that they will be different against the defected car His reponse to that the vin numbers match this paperwork therefore it is this car. I replied that i know they match cause they are for this car with these plates i was refering to other car. but again didn't listen. he couldn't figure it out he got realy pissed off but eventualy let me go after almost 45min. He did warn me that he will check in the office and will be knocking on my door. no defect. no rbt nothing just 45min lost arguing and still no door knock. Next day rang the rego dept and story gets better. not that my car is defected now its also stolen. seriously what tha F#@. anyway the rego department had figured the issue out. we have alpha numeric plates. the famous defected black skyline had custom plates with same slogan as mine. how tha hell does that happen. not only was defected but stolen. (by the way the police officer never mentioned stolen) basically it was my fault for buying the plates online (regardless that I went to rego department to pick them up and assign them to the car) apperently if i ordered them over the counter they would have warned me about it or refused the slogan. argued the point not my fault that they shouldnt be selling stuff thats not cleared or exactly same as their other plates. so either I change the plates which im refusing as I want my money back and new plates reissued for free. or I have to go to the police tell them the problem again, try to clear up the custom slogan plates so rego department can cancel them and restrict them from being used. or put up with possible constant pulling over and explaining the issue over and over to the boys in blue. what a freaking joke. they quick to get he money but wont fix the problems or even clear their stuff properly. still to go to the police station to try clear it up maybe tonights job. so yeah i wonder how many more plates are out like that. wonder how mamy WRX ### aplha numeric plates match WRX ### custom plates. visual difference old R & S plates have either just "SA" (which is what we got) or newer style "SA the Festival state" with SA logo while custom have different colours with "South Australia" and SA logo. so not much difference. moral of the story. try find out history of the custom plates before purchasing. if you want them tell them to clear it all up before hand. or just get normal current issue $21 plates and no problems.

Hi kinda new here but not new when it comes to skylines or nissan's I though I share some info on above issue and contribute positively to the site. Came across few R34 with above issue. Factory boost gauge droping out and not reading. sometimes come to life but only to die again. I have pinpointed it to the Boost Sensor. The one bolted to strut tower in front of the brake booster. Chased few days for replacement. Brand new cost u don't want to know. Wreck yards / Importers I contacted and had these items wanted $150 for it. bit expensive. So decided to see what make it tick (kinda typical of me as i'm electronics design technician) as I suspected a intermittent problem with the sensor. Luckily the R34 boost sensor can be dismantled revealing some what very shonky soldering job. Had quite a few dry joints. Once reworked I've tested the sensor and no surprise to me it worked fine. 1 week and still not a glitch. It is fine electronics so care needs to be taken and decent tools to be used if attempting to DIY.. So if anyone has an issue with these PM me ill help out. don't be silly paying $150 for second hand unit that will most probably crap itself. if someone has a faulty one send it to me and I write up DIY repair and post it here with pics and u get one free repair.

Same issue was on my R34 as well. Its intermittent fault with sensor. Either replace with new one or second hand for $150 the price I got from some wreck yards (bit of a rip off) or contact me to repair yours. it is an intermittent fault in the circuitry due to bad soldering = dry joint = annoying when boost gauge works on an occassion. I was searching on SAU to find if anyone else had issues with this. found you, Will make a separate post so ppl don't get slugged paying big money for a relatively easy fix. Though if R32 or R33 sensors are not repairable like the r34 (well not as easy, but haven't found a faulty one yet)

NEW Updated list bit less messy than one quoted above. 1. R34 steering wheel or S15 Jap spec or Gt spec leather steering wheel. Air bag not required. must be in good condition 2. R34 GTT 300kmh Nismo dash. Doesn't have to be perfect or even working can be damaged. 3. Stock gear knob in good condition. 4. Stock floor mats 5. Under bonnet sound deadner / heat shield thingy thanks

Cheers for the offer. Bought the exact same one and just got delivered this morning.

Hi everyone, Signed up 2 years ago but finally an intro.. From Adelaide SA, bit of a RB and SR nutter. Im into car restorations, conversion, modifications, had a 260z with RB20DET fully restored by myself (sadly gone now RIP RBZ260) new project 240z with RB26DETT. Also S14 and S15 cars another passion of mine. Just got a R34 GTT for myself but looks like the missus is taking a liking to it. so who knows who will end up with it. It needs bit of TLC so probably with help with SAU should turn out into a nice R34. I will post in wanted section some parts i require.SO Please HELP. Some parts needed urgently some not. Please pm me if anyone has any of those items. ie front bar, stock air box, exhaust etc....... more details in wanted section. i know everyone wants to see a pic, so here is a pic of the car currently

mate i know this is digging it out of the grave but just wondering if u still have this for sale. i was going to pm but it wont allow me. thanks John
