Hi All,

I feel sad doing this, but since I've moved way out into the bush, my beloved R34 rarely sees any use.

There is only one sealed road out of town, and too many critters to dodge!

Here's the basic info:

R34 GTT, manual, black, done approx. 60K KM (need to check new odo).

Vehicle was imported either very late last year or very early this year.

I purchased it in January this year - was stock standard except for the Nismo coilover suspension.

Since then I have done the following:

- New* Power FC (*purchased 2nd hand but was never used)

- New Greddy Profec B Spec II

- New FMIC

The above was fitted and tuned by Croydon Racing Developments in Sydney (210KW ATW)

- New Xforce turbo back system (3 or 3.5") - 2 weeks later I had a different resonator and Varex muffler fitted.

(still have the xforce pipes/resonator/cannon muffler/hanger etc. which should bolt straight on. I'm thinking of keeping the Varex for my next vehicle)

- New 18" wheels and tyres (forgive my poor memory - been an eventful year - but have all receipts).

- Panel air filter

- New Alpine stereo system & speakers

- New Rhino alarm system

- New Nismo 300KM/H cluster

- Had the door glass tinted

- New Splitfire coil pack fitted

- New battery

- New Targa Tasmania custom plates

As mentioned, I have all receipts for the above.

And I'm sure I've forgotten other things done...

So far I have only fed the engine 98 octane fuel and Motul 300V oil.

I have treated this car with the utmost care and kept it under 6000RPM. Apart from a few high speed runs, I haven't come close to thrashing the car. I did intend taking it to Oran Park and elsewhere, but ran out of time before moving to Tassie. And now I just plain don't have the time to take it to any track (plus I'm a good hour away from the nearest track).

Paint is in good shape, and comes up beautifully after a wash and application of good polish.

Basically I'm just in the wrong place for a car like this - I want to replace the R34 with a Forester, which is a better choice for here.

Bad points -

Only one that I can think of, being a small car park type dent in the door, approx. 5mm in diameter. Paint still intact within dent.

Not bad enough to bother repairing in my opinion and I rarely remember that its there. Oh, and no rear wiper arm (if that's a problem).

I'm looking for around $25,500 neg for the vehicle as-is.

I haven't added up what I've spent (I don't wanna know!) but basically everything bar the suspension was bought and fitted this year, so all mods are in excellent condition, with warranty and I didn't compromise on parts choice or who worked on my R34. I didn't go over the top regarding performance mods - just took it to 210KW at the wheels. Taking it further will involve a bigger fuel pump and turbo, just to give you an idea.

Drives the same as the stock vehicle - until you keep pushing the pedal that is :)

*Note: car park ding is just below door handle - not really obvious from most angles

I am located near Fingal (NE Tas) and probably best way to contact me is via PM or email at the moment.

Probably forgotten some important details, but I've wanted to get this post listed for a few weeks - so here it is :)

Of course, if by chance you have a Forester to trade, please contact me.

Also chasing a decent quad bike, could part trade with cash adjustment.

Needless to say, no time wasters please... don't enquire unless you are seriously interested.

Negotiable, but not by too much - I think its good value given the choice of mods, the age and documentation provided.

I could always return the vehicle to mostly stock... then sell off the after market parts... but would prefer not to.

If I can't turn this into a Forester (suitably modifed of course!) then I may as well keep it.

Thanks for looking :)

Cheers

Still haven't pulled my finger out and made a serious attempt to sell my 34 :domokun:

It's been sitting in the garage, no doubt feeling lonely. I reckon I'd have been lucky to have clocked up 300KM this year.

All the details are much the same (since bought a quad bike though), price reduced to $23200, rego and insurance has been maintained.

Still chasing a Forester - but need to sell this first. I don't need a fourth vehicle to keep registered!
