thanx for the info guyz

How do i drive it back from VIC? isnt it too far? wont my Km's go high lol

will check out the rides here on the site first and decide. i really want an R34 and love the looks thats why the last option will be to get a N/A and then when i get more cash i will sell it and replace it with the r34 gtt

btw are r34 gtt automatic with triptonic any good?

one more question. how do go about with the forms? the ones u fill up when u sell/buy a car? if i am not in the state that the seller is?

get the owner to write you a receipt saying you purchased x car, for y amount, and both sign it.

in regards to the forms you'll have to contact the DPI

my mate in the Army when he was in Darwin wanted to buy my 180sx but it was too complicated for us but there was a bit more to it than just buying and selling

all the R34 GTT's that are automatic are tiptronic... there's quite a few members here with tiptronic ones so they'll be able to give you their opinions, i had a disagreement with some guy from Sydney as i personally think that a tiptronic one would not be as fun as a manual one, especially with our roads here and when you go on cruises and stuff there's plenty of roads that cater for fun/spirited driving

i know a lot of guys in Sydney and Melbourne however have tiptronics as their traffic is real stop/start so the automatic transmission comes in handy

if you're looking to modify and take your car to track days and 'enjoy' so to speak your car a little more i'd stick with a manual

a bit biased though, i hate driving automatics unless it's made to be automatic ie. a Lexus/Mercedes... couldn't imagine driving relative's cars in manual

less fun and puts you to sleep with late nights

my2c anyway, hope that helps

I have a tiptronic R34 (I wanted an R34 but could not afford a manual). It's great in traffic and the tiptronic function is really handy. However if you can get a manual I probably would, not to mention it gives you the ability to have a bit more fun. However if you're not bothered its a good way to save some money, be a bit lazy now and again but its still an R34 Skyline and a great car.

been in ur shoes before mate, got the na then sold it for the turbo, no comparison.. which i already knew but at the time i couldnt afford the turbo and its expenses bla bla. Save up a lil more and get the turbo.. otherwise ull say "i should have listened to that dude." I love manuals but i got a semi auto (mum needed to move the car sometimes and doesnt drive manual) i love it also tho, it comes in handy a lot and still very fun to drive. but the trans depends on how u like to drive i guess.. if i had the choice id have both.. might convert later tho cos i love it too much.

got both cars from nsw to wa from between 1200-1500 bucks. just get the turbo!

like Andrew said.. u may tend to get sleepy with the semi auto. Just clock ur car.. thatll wake u up, na dont thats dangerous

no matter what car ur interested in man, if u cant view it or drive it for yourself you should get someone who can, u cant tell what condition a car is in by photos, look for a car with the right colour, extras, kms or whatever u like then get a complete inspection. might cost anywhere from 100-400 bucks but thats a small price to pay imo even grab their mechanics number and chat to them about the car. depending on what state the car is search for a known or reputable vehicle inspection company for that state/city etc on the net and book an inspection (preferably a company that includes a compression n leak test also). still gotta reply to ur pm mate bit busy at work gtg. talk later hope that helps.

I paid Ceva (aka TNT) 750 to ship my 32 from perth to melboune (house to depo) at xmas.

If you drive it is about 3500k's, 5 days and cost about (depending on your fuel eco) $800-$1000 inc accom, food, fuel etc and it is very boring no matter what car you would be driving.
