Ok, so we all know that it is always better to buy a car with a full service history and logbooks to authenticate the kms (along with a mechanical and visual inspection of the car), but how much of a difference does it make to the resale value of a relatively rare car such an R34 GTR v spec II? I’m seeing more and more of them around these days with no logbooks or paperwork that are surprisingly (somewhat) clean, and I’m also seeing some around which look old and worn but with logbooks, that have obviously had the k's wound way back. So how much of a difference do you think it makes? Would you buy a car that had a mechanics ok and looked clean to you if it didn’t have any paperwork?? Also, would you go for a good but aged car with a full genuine service history and all accompanying paperwork (lets say it had done ~100,000 kms), or one which looked and felt quite a bit newer with nothing to substantiate the k's (lets say this one's apparently done only 55,000 kms)?

Hi Guys!! Im relatively very very new to the scene in Sydney and in Australia in general. Ive got a R33 GTST which i intend to work on and use for 1/4mile drags and possibly drifting later on. At the moment it is stock standard (i know very rare to find one) and i intend to do mods starting from the basics like exhausts and to more intense stuff like front mounts bigger turbos and etccc. My question is how can i build a car and use it on the tracks? i understand we wont be able to get any form of certification to drive it to the race track??? What all do i need to do here to get into the scene? do i have to be a member somewhere, pay extra rego?, always tow the car on a trailer?? how about drive days? how do i use the car if i wish to drive it on cruises? Greatly appreciate if someone can get me started here. Cheers, Shaq
