Even if you ever ever found one for $35k it woudl be a total heap..

Even ones for $40k are in no way genuine and will be accident repair with wound back KMS.

If you dont really care and what a GTR just because you want a GTR thats fine. A proper genuine R34 would cost from around 45- 50k upwards for a higher km (around 80) but genuine and good condition vehicle.

ah i see as this car is the one i was looking at

http://www.carsales.com.au/used-cars/priva...856&trecs=6

At 29,000kms is just way too low i would imagine. how does one tell if the kms are wound back and are there any proplems with a gtr with 80,000 kms on em. is the 100,000kms service expensive?

Don't trust those guy mate, they always have few gtr ads on the carsales(private car sales section) selling under 50k and using different name and mobile number on the ads, they have a warehouse just close to Glebe. My friend bought a bayside blue from them for 50k ten months ago but that car was full of rust under, then they didn't want refund and asked my friend to pay 4k more to swap to a white one (that white one was selling on the same price as the blue one before). Well, no rust on the white one but my friend found out the car couldn't drive in straight line after(should had a bad accident on the front in the past). I always look on the carsales, they now lower their r34 gtr's price at around 40-45k. So be careful when you looking on the cheap r34 gtr. I Think a good proper standard model r34 gtr is around 50k with around 50000kms-60000kms GOOD LUCK for your car search

cheers

Hahaha didnt want to say anything but the cars in that dealer will all most probably either be wind backs, accident repairs or both!

Remember, if its to good to be true it usally is!

Very nice clean example of a R34 GTR should be atleast 50K and up. If you importing now they will be around another 10K due to aussie $$$ drop.

Feel free to shoot me an email and discuss it - I'll see what I can do with your budget, but I'm not making any promises. :bunny:

You're dead right about getting a lemon though - a rough GT-R is a nightmare to own...

you can look at that car, but consider that it's nearly 10 years old. so less than 3,000kms a year through all of it's owners? yeah right. spend the money to buy a nice genuine GTR. I can bet you $50 you wont get any auction sheet or any service history with that car. I am biased though as I'm currently selling my 34 GTR. but mine does have history, has 80,000kms (about right for that age GTR) and is absolutely mint. I wouldn't take less than $50K though so it's a fair bit more money, but I'd wager it's a fair bit more car too.... even if they bought that at the peak of the aussie dollar for it to be sold for $40K it would have been a VERY cheap car at auction. very cheap. which spells trouble. so yeah, buy mine instead! lol. :P

any car you look at, look underneath. if you can, get it checked at a workshop, and even better get a compression test. car should have original service books and manul too. and try and drive a couple so you can get a feel for what a good one should drive like. good luck. :)

oh, and with the current weak aussie dollar importing one is out. buy one here. importing one really nice ones are 4mil+ which is $55K just for the car. you are looking 67,000 inc GST and import duty, shipping, compliance rego, etc allow another $8-$10K and you're looking at nearly $80K right now to import a really nice 34 GTR. 2 months ago it was about 30% cheaper!

Im with Barron, I bought a R34 GTR just before the crash (well halfway through it around 80ish yen) It is a genuine Grade 4B in Bayside Blue with around 70km, If I was to sell this car I would be expecting $50k for it. I was very happy with the buy as i think alot were scared off due to the economic changes occuring and the buyer needed it sold. (negotiated after auction as it was passed in)

Good GTR's are not easy to find for that sort of money and you can be pretty sure especially with todays market anything under 50ish would be a pretty poor example.

If i was to bring that car in now it would cost another 30% as Barron has said.

    • So we have most the interior back in, and for the first time with one OEM speaker hooked up. The 31 is running, driving and now tunes!!! Hahaha yet another step for the sub that sat 10m under for two weeks!!! unbelievable really 👌 lots of love work and not giving up on her. Seen so many youngsters part way less, and in way better condition. I’m stubborn, thinking another problem is just a hurdle to overcome, One at a time. IMG_9277.mov
    • That is correct. I'm using a modified ABS ring and a ZF speed sensor on my rear diff for speed input. I'm running a Haltech ecu. 
    • Been busy with the newborn. We originally thought we were going to go for a third, but we're good with two lol. He's starting to actually sleep now so I've had some energy to work on the car. It's been parked away in the garage since late November due to winter.  I went ahead and redid all my head oil drains. I originally had my front and rear head drain going into the same pipe but have since split them up. I also added an Ethanol content sensor to get ready to run E85 this summer. Tossed it on my return line. Sensor sits nicely under my intake manifold.    I also have a lot of parts that came in for my rear end. I'll be swapping over to a 3.3 final drive and doing the GK teck anti squat mod. While the rear subframe is off, I'll also change every bushing. We're planning on buying another house soon with the condition that I get at a minimum a 2 door garage, so I'll wait to have more room for this. Now onto the strange things that recently happened... After changing the lower rad hose (It had been sitting in my cabinet for well over a year and was the last hose I had to replace), I let the car idle in the garage to bleed my coolant. After running for a few minutes, it started missing. Got much worst within a minute or two and then stalled and would not restart. My crank sensor decided to crap itself. No damage, no explanation, just died. I went ahead and replaced it with another ZF sensor but the heavier duty stainless model with a shield. Tossed that in and started right up. Has anyone else seen this? I hate when things fail without cause. Luckily this was a blessing in disguise... This lead me to recheck my timing. It seems I may have had a beer or two the last time I had set my TDC angle as I was off exactly 5 degrees... I miscounted a line haha. I was running 5 degrees less then commanded. It's a little embarrassing but helps explain why my dyno operator seemed to think I should be making more then 478rwkws.        
    • Sharing results from recent Liberty Walk R35 GTR, since they are still considered as somesort of a V36 Skyline. We do them turbos too. This are high flowed SS-1 models with ball bearing conversion done.  Car have managed to pull 485awkws @ 20Psi so far pushing limitations of factory built engine. The build list for R35 GTR enthusiasts as follow : HyperGear high flowed stock turbos in SS1 (G25-660 specs) Custom titanium intake pipes. Vspec performance titanium front pipes. Vspec performance 4" titanium exhaust. Upgrade fuel pumps. 1200cc injectors. Ignition coilpacks Hks intake plenum. Hks intercooler piping. Greddy intercooler. Greddy bovs. Top-secret coolant reservoir. Emtron ecu. Straight E85. Built gear box.  
    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
