We were all talking about the R34 GT-R that had 380,000kms on auction last week (or was that 2 weeks ago). Well it was sold today for 1,560,000 yen which equates to about $18,500 in aussie dollars. Then add the usual FOB, freight, taxes, compliance, and other misc fees and you will have yourself a GT-R for under 30 grand.

I can't wait until she lands on our shores, so everyone stay tuned for this baby.

Its actually not a bad buy if the buyer plans to do a full overhaul similar to the sort that a lot of R32's receive

I agree with this. I can't help but feel that I should have bought this.

That raises a point; how often do r34's come up with mechanical issues?

Eg a blown motor (bearings or similar), surely they would be priced close to this 380,000k one?

I saw a rolled NUR Spec in Millenium Jade at Nagoya a few months ago. There was not an undamaged panel on the car and it sold for 1.1mill. Prices lately are just bizarre, absolutely all over the place.

Rolled? Bloody hell, what a waste.

I mean one thats structurally fine, clean enough inside etc but a blown motor, or a blown gearbox (or just no motor and box altogether)?

Motors over here are easy enough to buy, or just build :ermm:

As you can tell by the prices they pull at auction, if a 34 has a blown engine or box it will simply be replaced or repaired.

It's not like they're at a value whereby if the engine is blown they're worth nothing. So, if you were to find one with a blown donk, it would likely only be cheaper by the value of a rebuild engine.

Even if you were to find one like this, the extra shipping costs due to it not being drivable with outweigh any real benefit.

I remember that one, I think I put 500,000 or something on it just for the engine/drivertrain...

THese generally don't make it to auction, they get bought by dealers or fixed by the owners. Plenty of rattly 32/33s go through but generally the type of person who owns a 34 has the money to fix the car before selling it.

      By RB25inside · Posted

      Are these the Dmax ones you are in reference too? https://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35#description Not a bad idea to get the uni flange ones. I have sent just jap an email too. Will see what they say lmao. Only thing is the Dmax ones are on a big back order. Low key anything will be better then my OEM ones I got as they are sounding like popcorn when I go under load lmao 😂☠️🪦.

      Compatible rear drive shafts R34 N/A?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      They should do. I have S14 (or something S chassis, anyway) driveshafts in my R32 (because my diff flanges have 3x2). They're the right length. When you go looking for R32/3/4 driveshafts (for turbos), they're all the same thing, so are the same length. So there really shouldn't be any reason why those cheapies from JJ won't also fit an R34. R32/3 NA should also be the same thing. The (3x the price) D-Max ones are uni-fit. They have 5x1 and 3x2 bolt holes and say they cover all the cars. So that would also suggest that they are all the same except for the flanges. And in that case, the flange goes both ways. I'd be buying the D-Max ones if I ever have to replace a shaft. Because that will open up diff options without needing to juggle shafts also. Juggling shafts is gay.

      Yeah with the adaptors they do look like the photo above - just the fitment within the plenum itself and then further with the rail to the intake is questionable - we shall see tomorrow hopefully once I get some replies from Aeroflow, maybe those bosses are the missing piece....

      Should be fine, if you have it sitting too far in, you end up just spraying the walls and have shit idle. You "can" run them like that, however I don't think it's a great idea (also depends on your plenum, might be good to just get the injector bosses first, mock it up and see if you need to get the bottom extension) Ideally your injectors, with the extension should look like this  (Not my photos, just Google)

      Thanks for the replies guys, it's really appreciated.  It seems the kit was supposed to come with those injector bosses but hasn't. Unsure if they'll help as even with the adaptors to make them a 3/4 height injector they still sit too far out so mount the fuel rail?
