urghhh... i need help

Dude, you can get cheaper, but the condition / kms get worse. It depends on WHAT you want. A nice clean [undamaged] low km vehicle with 5spd and turbo will be at least $33k. I am sure you can knock some off that price too [$36.5], you should be able to get it for under or around 35k I think.

Here is an example of a slightly damaged / cheaper 34, 5spd turbo: Prestige Motorsport

Bear in mind this car is still in Japan and price does [obviously] not include tyres and on-roads. But it is a nice price!

Ps make sure you check the condition notes...

Cruize down to ballarat today as one of my friend wanted a r34.

$36,500 has done 22,000km , everything stockie (hehe just like mine) besides the front bar and wheels.. worth it?

It also looks lowered to me! Do you know what suspension is in it? Adjustable?

Edit: I just saw your other thread on suspension.

nismoR34.. u coming to ballarat this saturday mate???

I will give you a definate answer on friday - i need to call the guy I bought my car off to see if he has got the parts i am after...

If you want PM me with your number and i will call you tomorrow [friday]. Also let me know where your travelling from!

*EDIT* I dont think i will go, the guy hasnt got the parts out of quarantine yet - bloody crap! I would be just going for the hell of it and dont really have the fuel atm...

sorry nismor34... didn't get your post...

went with pushead and i put a deposit on it already.

Q: they have 17inch buddy club P1 wheels...don't know if it's x 7, 8 or 9 inch. I know the back is wider. At the moment it has 225/45 tyres and they don't really fill out the rims.

Front is ok, but back need wider tyres. What's a good size as i don't wanna go too wide, or it will look like 4wd wheels or a fat chick trying to fit into Satch jeans.

cheers

No worries Creation, thats cool. Good to hear you are buying the beast!

Check this site for a Tyre Guide This should help you choose a tyre that is roughly the same circumference as the stock setup [225 / 45 ~ 17 x 7.5]

You dont want to just put ANY size tyre on, or you will stuff up your tacho / speedo / odometer / etc!

My car currently has:

Front: 17 x 8, 235 / 45

Rear: 17 x 9, 255 / 40

Hope this helps :)

thanks... done some research.. i think front 17x8 rear 17x9 (guessing)... which would be the same as the Evolution R 200sx. He has front 215/45 rear 235/45. I might go the same or 10mm wider front and rear. The profile will be 45 as thisi s what it is on the stock r34 alloys.

    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though 
    • $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.
    • Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.
    • I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.
    • I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
