hey guys and girls,

couple of weeks ago iron chef Imports (Kristian) found this awesome car for me in japan.

its a very stock standard model R34 GTS-4. so its all wheel drive, manual of course and around 74,000k's on the clock.

it arrived in Brisbane last Friday, hopefully and will be getting sent to Adelaide asap, hoping for it to be here on Friday.

so if any1 is looking for a car from japan don't hesitate 2 email Kristian with what your looking for. [email protected]

cheers Luke

BTW if any1 has some non xenons headlights for the car, who would like to swap for a couple of weeks while compliance is getting done, that would be great.

so now for the pics.

found out the other week it has some crazy factory option parking guide. where the thing on the bumper is a aerial to guide you where your bumper is when parking. it comes up and lights up blue. also has some driving lights in the front bumper.

some strange factory options for sure.

future plans:

rb26

full suspension and handling components

some audio

exhaust

dished wheels

list goes on....

thanks luke

Throw a /30 on the end of that RB26. :P

Nice pick up.

So how long in total from finding the car to getting it in to australia?

can't get them through because they are not self leveling.

I don't know who would have a set of R34 headlights that have been complied that you could borrow.

but i reccomend holding off on compliance till you get some.

The xenons are wonderful, i had some for about 8 months.

Why the 4 door? If you are planning to put a rb26 in it , I would of bought a GTR . LOL

Looks great anyway.

Have seen a few articles about a few(very rare)R34 GTR's in japan in 4 door . Now that would be something that not every Tom, Dick and Harry would have.

    • As GTS mentioned, it takes a bit of faffing, some fiddling and a little modifying.  With the strainers, you can buy different styles. Some sit flat on the pump, some angle down.  Here are some photos of mine, ignore the ugly welds lol. 
    • The smart thing is to actually locate the pump at the right point down the hanger, so that the strainer can stay sticking out at a right angle, but near the bottom. This is the perpetual hassle with retrofitting any different pump to the factory hanger. Some just go where you need it to, some need fiddling and faffing, and modifying of stuff.
    • Some updates. After a lot of praying and some inspecting of crank threads, we've found that they were both kinda munted but nothing seemed terminal. The other option was drilling and helicoiling the crank. That is obviously the last option so we decided to at least try to get a OEM GM bolt in to GM Specs. So after honing/linishing the balancer from it's .002" interference fit to a .0018" to .0015" to .0013" it eventually slotted on to the crank. ATI state the interference is nominally 0.0007-0.0009... so it's still snugger than ATI reckon and explains the issues we had to fit the thing to begin with. New GM bolt went in at 37 ft/lb then torqued 140 degrees after which was EXTREMELY   but it tightened up to 140 degrees and it was a lot of force. So all things considered, the balancer is secured to the exact specs that GM want with the OEM Stretch bolt, (that ATI say you can use..) and the balancer itself is seated and snug AF. So WOO. Engine is now back in the car with lots of swearing. Bellhousing bolts done up, driver side manifold is on, AC Compressor and hard lines are back on the car. Next step will be to connect various engine bits/wiring/intake/radiator etc. Then oil and coolant and ... test start it? And of course, looking into this issue... which actually doesn't look so bad - It looks like it can be twisted back into shape with a set of multigrips. Anyone wanna buy my bonnet? Boy it looks good over there and sunk cost sucks.
    • Also this may be a stupid question, but how would you recommend getting the strainer on a downwards angle ? as they tend to obviously clip to the bottom of the pump which usually sits level 🥴
