Hey bud

Like buying any used car, be sure to check it out thoroughly before you buy - take your mech with you or get Stateroads to give it a good go over

That said i bought my R34 from Shane at PowerRoads, short story, because i'm from Sydney, He had the car driven up for me free of charge, while on the way up, one of the tyres blew due to a leaking valve on the rim - which took out the inner guard. He then sent another one up to me and paid us to get it replaced - he also offered to replace the rim but we were able to get it fixed free of charge so there was no need.

He's a good bloke, show him your serious to buy and he'll be serious to sell, he takes trips fairly regularly to Japan to choose several of his cars himself from both dealers and auctions. Haven't had any problems with mine so far - when i got it inspected my Stateroads, the bloke told me he was very impressed with the condition of the car saying it was one of the best he'd inspected in a long time. He said there are alot of lemons out there so to find one in the condition mine was in was surprising.

He's got a few nice cars at the moment so all the best and happy hunting =)

Yeah he does have a nice selection atm, i was also looking into one of his R34s.

I just had a car accident and am desperate to buy new car but dont want to see too desperate, i will take your advice thanks mate =] Much appreciated.

Just bought my r34 from him 2 weeks ago. I told him I was interested, so I got him to send the car for a pre-purchase check. Nothing wrong overall, just minor wear and tears. The whole transaction was nice and smooth lol. Shane's a nice bloke. Pretty much sums it up... Ps ask jeff from power rd to take you for a ride in his red r34 lol crazy driver

    • "Here's how it works: Buy a set of four Pirelli tyres." Hey I think these guys are on to something 🤣
    • Absolutely! I've been in love with them since I was a kid. I remember doing a school essay on Humvee's back in grade 5 haha. I always wanted one, but didn't have the space nor the funds. With us now looking for another larger home with a larger garage, I'll have room to park it. They have also gone down considerably in price. The US army has been phasing out Humvee's, so they're flooding the market which also brings down H1 prices.  It shouldn't be a problem to drive around here, I live in the suburbs. I would absolutely not buy one if I lived in a city though. They are known to be terribly unreliable. People often swap out the original 6.2/6.5L for a more reliable Duramax.  H1 and Humvee's are identical, minus the fact that the H1 has a dash and seats. It sadly also makes the H1 more expensive. I've driven both and the Humvee interior, or lack thereof makes it extremely loud and unpleasant to drive. Don't get me wrong, the H1's interior is horrendous, but at least it's present. Most do a custom interior in a Humvee which I'm also more than happy to purchase. 
    • Then I realised it was just a typo. I was hoping for a set of Pirellys for my 5 series.
    • Sounds like a Barra swap is needed...
    • A super responsive 250 would be nice in a daily.
