just advertising my GTT as an expression of interest, tried to sell it at an unreasonable price a few months back...

umm... car was at AutoSalon '08 with the SAUWA stand... in line with all the R34 GTR's if you were there, across from the Tech9Tyres stand...

some history on the car;

Imported through Imports101 in mid-December and i have owned it ever since, was initially run on BP Ultimate but i have since changed to Vortex98 as i myself, as well as a few other drivers noticed that we got more km's out of the car using that fuel...

i drive it everyday and is beautiful to drive, car is very reliable and i haven't had any problems with it at all...

here are some specifications on the car;

sorry, i have not had it dynoed... nor do i know how much power it's putting out...

fairly stock standard in regards to mechanical modifications, trying to keep it as tidy as possible before i find more $$$ to give it some more power, in saying that this is a perfect base car for anyone with plans for a GTT

appreciate the kind comments, thanks mate,

Andrew :laugh:

Yeah nice car.

I don't know if many R34's are selling privately as I have had my 2000 GT-T sedan advertised at 16k and have had no serious interest.

Mine is stock and auto so I expect that your manual coupe will get more interest but I assume the problem is that guys can't trade or get finance with a private sale.

Checking through the classifieds most dealers prices are into the 20's for stock GT-T sedans but private sales in this range seem to linger for a looooong time.

As usual there are plenty of guys wanting these cars but few with cash.

Good luck anyway.

okay, car no longer has the vented bonnet but now has a standard bonnet in black, a HKS SSQV and a decat pipe so blows some awesome kid boy racer flames that light up the night sky...

come check out the car, i am open to trade offers and interstate offers, willing to ship at buyers expense, don't forget... price is negotiable, cheers

Andrew :banana:

That looks really nice man,

In regards to the pricing and interests, the problem is that at the moment any car that uses more than 10L/100km fuel comsumption is much more difficult to sell, and when car prices start to fall the imports are the hardest hit.

I've been looking to get a GT-T recently, the prices on these cars have fallen quite abit over the past 12 months. The problem you may have in attracting interest is that while most of your mods a quite neat, such as LED lights, tinted headlights and carbon fibre mirrors, they're cool bits and pieces but a buyer like me wouldn't really pay any extra money for them.

If I want to get a stock GT-T as a base, I could easily find one well under $20k at the moment. So you'll have to look for someone who really appreciate the looks of your car and willing to pay a bit extra for it.

That's my opinion, I really do think you have a beautiful ride there, good luck with your sale and hopefully you'll find the right buyer soon.

yeah much appreciated mate, i do think the same thing sometimes...

i know you can get a stockish R34 GT-T for around 20k (manual 2 door turbo ONLY if you look hard enough)

and even then, a custom pearl respray will easily cost 4.5k, rims will be 2.5k and anything extra will be on top, you've just spent 27k for a GTT with a respray with no mods and nice wheels, i think a kit and all the other little bits and pieces do add up but we all know in the modifying scene you never get back what you pay for...

it's a shame but it's part of the game ey? i don't mind keeping it for a little longer but there's not way the price is going to budge too much lol can't do it

good luck with finding your R34... they're beautiful cars mate you won't regret it :laugh:

oh yeah, bump bump :wave:

oh yeah, bump bump :P

28K is a lil steep for a standard gtt with a kit ,paint and guages, you are better off askin 24 max other wise ull wait all year and no one will buy it then it wont even be worth 24, i know i did it with my three cars :P

i don't mind if i don't sell, i know these cars are a bit cheaper in the Eastern States as these cars are selling [stock] at the dealers for 26k so i think 28k is reasonable here in Perth, and it's not just stock with a kit, paint and gauges... thanks for the comments though cheers

Andrew :D

quick bump

    • Ok glad you clarified on the frenchy’s options , I was worried about if my oem hoses would fit the new compressor or not if I just bought the bracket/compressor kit ,  didn’t realize they also sold a larger full conversion kit. Hmm may just go oem in that case then to make it easy only because I plan to sell this car to upgrade to a 32 GTR or 34 GTT.
    • Right, here's a video of the basic operation at least.  This is what you can expect day to day when you turn the car on and it boots from standby.  The only thing from a media point of view I haven't gotten working is for it to autoplay plexamp when it turns on from standby (it works from cold boot) but that's more of a plexamp problem as it will autoplay other music players.  Also attached is my one stray cable.  It's part of the screen's wiring adapters but there's just nowhere for it to go in my car.  I've just now done a bit of research and found a matching port on a 2010-2014 head unit with BOSE.  Mine has no BOSE so that's that case pretty much closed I think.  Plugging in the Infiniti AC panel basically did nothing for me, so that's a dead end as well.  Next port of call is to mess with this CANBUS module and see what I can find from it.  I found this resource containing the DBC files for a 2010+ G37 : https://github.com/icecube45/Dash_InfinitiG37/blob/master/InfinitiG37.dbc I'll now have something to go from when I try to extract my CANBUS data so I can see if the HVAC Mode, Fan Speed, Temperature, etc. match and also the gear shifter position.  It's a pretty big assumption that it's just mismatched CAN signals but considering all the devices in the CAN network are talking to each other (AC can be fully adjusted just with no info on screen) it might be a safe one.  I will report back WhatsApp Video 2025-02-26 at 12.49.10.mp4
    • Thanks for that Paul.  Do you think if I posted a picture you'd be able to remember where it went? 
    • Sorry Duncan, I didn't get a notification for the replies.  Thanks for responding!  It's a full Android device, but does allow you to use CarPlay/AA as well.  This is the one I bought from NaviRS on AliExpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006368602668.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.111.59aa1802JDzQ0E - the 2K 8G-256G CAM variant but it seems to have gone up by £170 since I bought it!  My purchase was £307.14.   It's not the fastest thing in the world but performs perfectly adequately.  It stays on standby unless I disconnect the battery and let it power down, then it's just a fairly standard Android bootup time from cold.  The DSP Equaliser is very nice and made the standard stereo system sound pretty decent compared to the stock screen.  Perhaps I can take a video of it when I get a sec. It *allegedly* supports the reverse camera, but I'm yet to get that working.  It has options for reverse cam (a camera unit can be bought separately) or 360 cameras (also bought separately).  To be fair it doesn't seem to detect that the shifter was put into reverse but I'm working on a theory about this as well.  At the moment I'm going without which is a bit annoying considering the car is an absolute canal barge but so far I haven't caused any damage I'll grab a picture of the wire I'm missing later today when I can get outside.  My theory, by the by, is that not only is the head unit different, but the CANBUS network has different signals for the different years.  I think this because I have a spare AC panel from a newer Infiniti G37 (as opposed to my Nissan panel) which wouldn't control anything except the volume when I had it wired up with the stock system.  I'm going to throw it back in and see if the screen will respond to it.  I've just ordered an arduino CANBUS module so I can have a look at the signals going around the car and see if I can spot anything.  I'm thinking if I can work out what it's expecting vs what it's getting I might be able to translate and relay the signal back but so far just a theory anyway. I also found this on my travels, so far the only one that specifically matches my car: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002822934280.html?spm=a2g0s.imconversation.0.0.33433e5fgttovi If you look at the picture of the before, it has the card reader slot, and the picture of the head unit is exactly the same as the one pictured in my original post.  I asked if they sell the cables separately but sadly they won't.  I didn't want to just buy this one because it's a super old Android version and only dual core - likely slow as hell. 
    • As above, you did refill the coolant and burp the system before running it again didn't you?
