That is very good for it's price, got a RB26DET engine, couple mods and low kms.

If you have the money get it man.

That is very good for its price.

i should hope so its got an RB26DETT, considering he is looking at a gtr lol (just messing with ya) :P

but seriously you cant tell too much just by pics. your better off checking it out in person and hear it start up and make sure the gearbox feels fine and stuff like that.

Hey mate, I test drove all the R34 GTRs on sale for a decent price in Melbourne a year and a half ago, including that one, before I ended up buying a different R34 GTR. Can't believe it's still on the market.

My, how the price has dropped. He was asking 60k or so at that time. He's a real nice, decent guy, and will let you take it on the freeway to test. He even showed me where there had been some (minor) panel damage before and re-sprayed. As I recall the front lip has a crack in it somewhere, but otherwise it's quite immaculate. Honestly, I wouldn't have noticed if he didn't tell me. He modified it and services it at Racepace, if I remember it correctly.

I would've bought it from him if it had been a few grand cheaper, as the yellow colour is really unique, but I ended up getting a different one. Take it to Racepace for a mechanical inspection/compression test or ring Ben there to see if there are any mechanical issues, but I doubt you will regret buying it. He seems like the kind of guy who takes care of his cars. Keep in mind though that I saw it 18 months ago, so a lot could've changed since then, although unlikely if it's the same owner.

Good luck and let us know which one you end up with.

As i mentioned in another thread:

If you are looking for one of the best R34 GTR's going around Mick from MiColour is selling his.

Lots less than any of the dealers and in way better condition.

You wont find much better than this basically standard one

Mick 0419 153 283 or MiColour 03 9555 8011

      Just one more post to show the final result and the original "janky" solution for a laugh. Everything feels really tight and no wobbling at all, very pleased 🙂

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) clogged cat

      By MBS206 · Posted

      The hot exhaust light will come on not from just the cat being blocked, but it's just a temp sensor, and it's designed to warn you to not do things like park in long grass.   If you've been pushing the motor a bit, it can cause the light to come on.   Second if the cat is rattling, I'd suspect it's not blocked, but instead falling apart inside.   The easiest "fix" until you can get a cat put back in, is to unbolt your one, bash the rest of the insides out, and then bolt it back in.   For a daily driver/street car, I am in agreeance of put a cat in the car. If it were race car I wouldn't care if it were removed.

      No worries at all 🫡 I think the most satisfying things to make are the little bits that are just impossible to find or they're no longer manufactured. Generally I always try to replace parts with OEM wherever possible. This little project is also great because it'll never see the light of day, but strengthen these brackets so it's not just relying on the little standard screws in the headlight plastic. As soon as I saw the standard brackets and screws I thought, "well I'm not going to install with just the screws, the plastic tabs will just snap off". It's crazy how expensive everything has become yeah. But I suppose that's supply and demand; granted it's a lot easier to get brand new genuine parts these days which is fantastic 😊, I don't have to get totally reamed at the local Nissan dealer ha ha We sure are lucky we have all these manufacturers making parts these days, a few really great Australian companies too like Platinum Racing Products and Fit Mint Automotive, what a time to be alive ❤️ . I've got my eye on the RB26 head by PRP as mine has a very fine hairline crack, so that'll need to be addressed some time in the future. If you have any requests or odd things to make feel free to let me know and I can have a crack at making replacement parts ✌️
