After selling my R33 about 12 months ago i decided to go out and get me a nice r34. I have just got the car and as they ussually do they have taken the xennon lights out for compliance but i have been told i can have all the old hardware if i want.

What is involved in refitting the lights ussually?

The other thing is the car is a 99 model with 32000k's. I have to say the interior is nothing short of immaculate but the body has the ussuall little scratches and so on but i still cat believe a 7 year old car would have that many k's. What are your opinions on cars with this amount of k's?

I have the option of buying some 350z 18inch rims for the R34 but wont be able to see them on the car first, has anyone got some pics of an R34 with the updated 350z 18inch rims?

Last thing for the moment but i paid $24000 for the car and also wanted some thoughts on how much the R34 will depreciate over the next 5 years or so. I know no one can be accurate but i know the R33 lost value in a huge way from say 2000 to 2004.

you sure its done 320,000ks??

Maybe it was misrecorded and meant to be 32,000...

wait, but you said you already bought the car??

so how does it feel when driving it??

All cars depreciate over time-- thats my answer, so be prepared to sell it a lower cost in 5 years time esp..

    • 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.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
