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.

    • Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers    
    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
