BNR34 = R34 GTR. oops left it out i'm using a Apexi Power FC. Yeah it was pretty cool running those 2 cars, my friend was shadered that he lost to me in both his cars. both cost about half mil each on the road. bloody deafening with both cars redlining every gear.

HAHAHA!!!

So he spent 1 Million on a Lamborghini and Ferrari together and you tear the shit out of them both with you GTR R34.

That just proves all you need is a Nissan and some upgrades and still have a large sum of cash left over.

LOL!

what can you afford and how are you paying for the car

then you should consider what model you can afford

both have distinct advanges, disadvantages, costs, bugs, features etc

so until you work out your budget - you got nothing

of course but thats like anything

you could go get a 1987 vl and spend 20k and destroy the 34

like wise with an rx7 or one of those rx3 rotaries, spend $xx,000 on them and it will beat the 34

that doesnt make it a better car - just makes it a faster accelerating car

i think you can get more acceleration out the BNR34 i think it runs taller diff gears in the rear (3.7 ish?)

whereas the others ran 4:11's

Hey,

I personally like some of the looks of the R33 GTR, but the R34 GTR is a superior car, but then again the new GTR is superior to that as far as power/handling go too bad you can't buy it here!

Anyway, it should come down to price if you like the looks of the R34, its a big price gap at the moment....(a decreasing gap but still a big gap).

Regards,

Gareth

I agree u should really plan everything properly. what u can afford and what expenses will be.

initial purchase of vehicle price/insurance, if getting a loan: car loan vehicle must be 7years or younger/anything older personal loan(higher interest).

don't rush into it (sorry didn't mean to lecture).

    • I suppose that's true. Barring almost any situation, I'll never sell so what the market does is kind of irrelevant to me. It's possible I'd make most of my money back. That spreadsheet I mentioned? Maybe I could make back more than what the car's total costs thus far are, but the parts and all that is possibly a different story... Thanks for reading. It was certainly a good moment and just makes the ties to the car that much stronger. It's exciting that the option will be there to bring it over, however I have some plans with a shop that may end up keeping the car there longer, not sure. Coupled with the fact I want to move there and haven't solidified any path yet. So in a way, it feels like I'm in a limbo state that is uncertain; time will tell.
    • No worries, everything worked out in the end. I just wanted to make the point that it doesn't matter where it comes from (I.E Australia), it can be broken or improperly built. I would still purchase from these companies in the future. B2R - Not certain how that finished, this was on a car I wired a few things and street tuned. I know the owner ended up shipping the motor back to Australia for investigation. Hopefully some of it is covered under warranty.  Turbosmart - I always pressure test everything that goes on my car. It's a habit from my career in oil and gas. I run two 40mm's and both had major leaks from the actuator to exhaust portion through the shaft. I returned both, they shipped me back two and one was leaking and the other had a 38mm top (40mm gate with 38mm actuator cap, no idea how that happens). Eventually after a lot of back and forth I found myself with two non-leaking gates. I believe this happens a lot more then people would like to believe but you would never know if you don't pressure test them prior to installation. Crank Motorsport - Issued a full refund and let me keep the seat rails. I turned them into scrap metal for other projects. GKTech - Shipped me out a replacement and asked that I modify it as per my idea and that they would do the same for a future revision. ATP - Can just needed a large shim to bolt up properly.  Haltech - They started an actual proper Beta channel for firmware's a few months back and stopped using the general public for testing. I'm now much happier.  Speedtek - f**k Speedtek. I would love to watch them burn.     
    • I've got a Turbosmart wastegate, ATP catch can, many GK Tech parts and Haltech everything. Everything's been perfect, sorry to hear your experience wasn't the same
    • The only high-power RB I've personally seen go pop after running for all of an hour on a dyno was built by B2R, while being remotely tuned by B2R. The only wastegates I've ever had leak like a sieve, return, still leak, return and get shipped back the wrong ones were from Turbosmart. The only final drive that I've ever purchased that were unusable, twice... were from Speedtek. The only seat mounts that I've ever purchased that placed the seats in the door frame were from Crank Motorsport. The only poorly designed parts that I had the manufacturer confirm should have been designed as per what I mentioned were from GKTech. The only ECU I've had firmware updates consistently break things are Haltech. The only catch can I've purchased that didn't fit in its advertised spot was from ATP. So forth and so on... Moral of the story, doesn't matter where it's from. Do your research beforehand and stick with products and companies you've trusted in the past.    @joshuaho96 If you want it done right, do it yourself.
