hey guys,

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

now i thought i'd post it up to see how much interest it will register with you guys, feel free to post up whatever comments you have to make... (try to keep the negative ones to a minimum though please, i am trying to sell it lol)

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;

MAKE:

NISSAN

MODEL:

NISSAN SKYLINE GTT (RB25DET - Single Turbo)

TRANSMISSION:

5 SPEED MANUAL

COLOUR:

GUNMETAL PEARL BASE - (has PURPLE/GREEN/BLUE spots in the sun/light - absolutely stunning colour requested by my painter) WITH BLACK BOOTLIT AND BONNET

ENGINE:

BLITZ SUS POWER AIR FILTER, BLITZ NUR SPEC EXHAUST, YASHIO FACTORY RADIATOR

INTERIOR:

STOCK, HAS ALPINE MP3 WITH IPOD CONNECTIVITY AND TV/DVD SINGLE DIN FLIPOUT SCREEN 7''

i picked up the car on Thursday as the rear bar and rims had to be put on, parked it up and only drove it out on Friday afternoon to take it to the Convention Centre...

have just driven it home, it is my daily so i will be driving it on a daily basis but i have only driven a tiny bit since i've gotten it back...

any questions as i mentioned before please feel free to ask, any comments to make also feel free to do so...

i am waiting on photos and will upload asap...

i am hardly ever on the internet anymore and won't really reply to sms's so if you're REALLY serious about any enquiries please contact me on 0433 560 364

thank you very much and i hope to hear your varied comments whenever...

cheers,

Andrew :worship:

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,

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

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

      You’ll want to have the block drilled and tapped to suit 1/2in head studs and the head for the same. How much power do you intend to make?

      Chris' R34 GTT Series 2

      By hoodedreeper · Posted

      Sorry for resurrecting an oldish thread Not much has happened in the past year since the last update. The car did another 1000 miles or so and failed the MOT for the first time in October (failed on tyres which had been advised for a couple of years) In October the car got put up for sale and was removed in November due to no interest, being so close to christmas it was to be expected. The roads were dry in February so I decided to tax it early and get the new tyres fitted.   Fast forward to April, I got someone in to give the car a good clean after sitting for the winter.                                 The car got re-advertised and today (Saturday 3rd May) the car sold. The new owner is planning a GTR conversion at some point and a respray in the same pearl white. It's bitter sweet, it's a shame to have the car sit there for half the year and then only do 1000 miles. The kids are growing too quick and space in the back is getting limited. It's been a great 6.5 years of ownership

      And if you want more power, more reliably, and cheaper, go get the Aussie RB... The 4L Barra and put that in instead.

      No cats will keep discolouring the rear bar. Sends white paint a weird yellow stain. Cut and polish normally gets it out, but you'll be doing that every fortnight I found.

      Both heads will be equally reliable or unreliable depending on what you do to them.  Stock the RB26 head will flow more. You have access to the stock intake ITB manifold on the RB26 cheaply which flows really well(1000hp+).   Arguably more aftermarket support for RB26, though in Aus we love our RB30 SOHC heads too.    The only downsides to the RB26 head is if you have a VL commodore and want to keep the SOHC look.  Where you may have an issue is drilling out the rb30 block for the bigger head studs but if you are building a big power motor you'd probably put bigger studs on the SOHC head too.  This is just about finding a good machine shop, sometimes easier said than done.  RB30 head worked can make big power just like a Rb26 head, so really it actually more comes down to what your preference is for your car.  People now even making billet versions of both.
