I know someone will direct me toward the best person/company, or it may be even one of our resident car importers(Beer Baron, Iron Chef ...) that will get my business, and that will make me happy.

I'm in Melb, and seriously I cannot find anything decent in the country/carsales that catches my attention.

There are a few of those ones on Carsales, but they are mostly modded, or they have questionable kms, 30,000kms with worn steering wheel and worn seats, pff, no way, maybe more like 130,000kms - so I'm after a fresh one, with some history backing up the odo readings and its condition.

One of those that you can see with the seat covers and steering covers on in Japanese car yards. Something like this, but hopefully cheaper:Excellent condition R34 V-spec II

I'm basically after a 100% stock, excellent condition V-Spec II or the Nur. My preference is silver, or blue if no silver ones are around.

If its impossible to find stock I would be willing to go for a minor modded ones, exhaust, wheels, pods but nothing that would have damaged the interior(drilling dash for gauges etc):Slightly modded V-spec II

So, what do people reckon - who do I go and talk to that will get me this beast - and I want to have 100% confidence that when these guys buy it its gonna be ok, and inspected properly.

I'm in no hurry, so basically would love to have a car by 1st October, so second half of the year is what I'm looking in getting it in my garage.

Anybody, I'm all ears, listening to suggestions.

Gotta get the ball rolling.

I've sent you a pm too. My advice is don't choose a broker/importer/exporter based on price or promise of cheap cars. You want someone who is not afraid to search for you for a few months if need be, and someone who is not afraid to inspect and reject a few cars before finding the mint condition one you're after. in return you'll need a realistic budget in order to win that special car when it does come up and apart from that just some patience!

Good luck with the hunt. With the right advice you will be able to get something really special. :domokun:

^^ Well said. I'm sure I said it elsewhere, but speak to a few people and see who you feel most comfortable working with too.

Richard if you ever want to come and work for Iron Chef Imports, let me know :domokun:

what is it that one would expect to be the difference between a V-Spec II and a V-Spec II Nur? I ask as I don't know and I'm admittedly hoping that you'll collectively pardon my laziness and someone will take 2 minutes to type 3 lines to explain!?

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By MBS206 · Posted

      From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.

      Lock up the old for sale / wtb threads.

      That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.

      I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.

      If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
