hi all,was wondering if anyone has stripped or knows someone that has stripped an R34 GTR with mods to sell since i am having trouble selling it as a complete car?

How much would all the parts return me?

Hassle involved?

or just be patient and a buyer will come along.

thanks Anthony

I'd imagine that stripping the car would be bad in both cases. You'll most probably won't get as much as you would if you sold the car as a whole and it'll probably take longer to strip and find someone to actually buy the parts.

Just wait till someone comes along with the amount of money you're happy with in my opinion.

there just seems to be a lot of interest in R34 GTR parts....a tuner was after a 6 speed gearbox the other day and he told me he would buy the shell off me also but that is in Brisbane so postage is also a problem unless sold in Sydney

As said in general the complete car will sell for more than the second hand parts. The exception to this is the mods. People are often interested in aftermarket gear. Saying that I'd love a 6speed gearbox.

The hassle of stripping a car is too much unless you have to strip it.

You really only get good money for the main bits...

ie. Motor, gearbox, etc

Its all the little bits that are worthless, plus you will find people after stuff you need to further strip and then may be difficult to sell then...

ie. "I want your rb26 head" then you will find it hard to sell the block for instance...

Keep it together, wreaked GTR's are for parts, if its registered atm keep it that way...

      Shoota's R33 GT-R RB30/26

      @soviet_merlin Thanks mate!  Nothing too major but will hold me up for a while. I've got lymphomas to get taken off the back of my neck and the middle of my spine which always conjures scary thoughts!  It sounds worse than it is. Yeah great, conjuring more rabbit hole deepening , just what I need! 🤣

      I'd argue the F50 kit I got is very good value. For ~2k I got the calipers (refurbed condition), adapters, pads, brake lines, rotors, and top hats. I think you'd be pretty hard to get Evo/GTR/350z brembos + the additional hardware for similar money. Used market for a pair of front calipers alone I've seen tend to run anywhere from $1500-2000 depending on condition.    That said, something like a GTR or 350z brembo is a lot easier to adapt to the Silvia.

      Is there a significant price difference between the Evo/gtr/350z brembos vs the F50? Looks amazing.

      R33 fuel setup

      I was actually being a tightarse at the time LOL... My OCD is tickling me into running a 2nd 8AN Teflon hose all the way down and removing the 2x OEM hardlines. My other side of my brain is telling me to run 2x hardlines front to back (also acts as a fuel cooler, so win win).

      As I mentioned in an earlier post, I had some trouble with the Silvia's brakes dragging back in 2023. I managed to sort it out then, but the same problem came back to bite me late last year. Just take a look at the picture – I had a feeling the handbrake was acting up again, and I was right. Anyway, I'd been wanting to upgrade to bigger brakes for a while. Not that the Silvia's brakes were bad, but it was more of a "want" than a "need", you know? It was funny, though – at the time, I couldn't find any Evo Brembos, 350Z Brembos, or GTR Brembos for a decent price (of course, tons of them popped up online after I already bought my kit!). I ended up going with an F50 Brembo kit, which came with adapters, brake lines, 330mm rotors, and top hats. The F50 Brembo caliper was used in a few other cars too, like the FPV. I also decided this was the perfect opportunity to ditch the Silvia's ridiculous rear brakes and that awful handbrake (some of you were definitely right about that!). I picked up some R33 calipers and all the necessary bits – rear drums, backing plates, and new hardware to refurbish the calipers. Of course, it wouldn't be a project without a few hiccups. Turns out the brake master cylinder was playing up and basically (to put it simply) keeping the brakes engaged. I had it overhauled, and after some adjustments, everything was working again. The whole process took a while, as you can imagine. To top it off, the front right wheel bearings were shot and needed replacing too. This is a rare occasion where I'm posting an update while it's all still fresh! These pictures were taken just this afternoon.
