Hi Guys,

Spotted a Yellow R34 on victoria rd this arvo a cop was in the drivers seat and another was outside the car talkin to someone. If this was a cop car we all better be careful it had a big powerplay sticker on the back of it.

Now this could have been someone elses car but what was the cop doing in the drivers seat?

Not Sure so anyways beware unless anyone can clarify....... :ghost:

Cop was probably checking it out...

There are quite a few car enthusiast cops around... Not all of them are dickwads like some people on here would have you believe :P

Haha,

I dont think all of them are i have met a few nice ones over the years.

Its just most of the young highway patrol that are the arseholes.

Hopefully it wasnt a cop car with powerplay imports sticker on it thats all

Even though most of us wouldnt try and run a 34 well i wouldnt bother anyways.

No point not on the street anyways ;)

lol ... Are there prices that bad??

Hell yeah! Try $50-60k for an R34 GTT, and >$100 for a GTR. Haven't seen many GTR's there lately but they seem to sell pretty quick. You know what they say about a fool and his money.

I got pulled over for an RBT by a cop who had just bought a Twin Turbo Soarer, had a deopist on an RA20 Celica with a 1JZGTE in it and had a Datsun 1200 ute with a 13B Turbo that runs 11's. He quite liked RONIN and knew alot about MR2's

well IMO you cant expect to get a great quality car at the lowest price. I bought my car there, paid above market, and have an above market quality car. Very happy with the price and service

And I bought my 99 r34 GT-t from there for much less than that too. Great condition and good service.

To me it's time v money thing. I don't have time to work on my cars anymore so I work hard to get the money to buy a better one from a place that will look after me if I have any issues.

hehe, adrian...

yeah that yellow gtt has been there for a while now. i always see it along victoria road. model 6 white spoke wheels? yellow? different skirts and wing though to mine i think but nearly there!

i agree with most here, if the $ value didnt match the quality of the product im sure the business wouldn't survive?

in any case, 99% of the time money doesn't lie :)

    • Details: Turbo Borg Warner EFR 9180 with 1.05 rear housing Upgraded TurboSmart integrated BOV Sanded and powdercoated compressor cover in gloss black Elbow welded with wiggins clamp Speed Sensor(Not included) (Can include oil drain(heat wrapped + titanium intake pipe with almost new filter for a tad extra). Manifold: 6 Boost RB26/30 twin scroll manifold  e-MAP ports drilled into both scrolls(I was using the TAARKS EMAP KIT) Turbo is in excellent condition. Always used Penrite 15w50 Racing oil(Changed less then 2000ks). Also using the Turbosmart OP regulator and filter. Downpipe: 4inch Stainless steel with VBand inlet and outlet clamps(included) Heat wrapped Dual ports for Dyno/Wideband usage Will throw in free 2.5 inch intercooler pipe(2.5inch From turbo outlet to 3.5 inch intercooler) - Powder coated black. Turbo made 563rwkw on mainline hub dyno at around 24-25psi boost - Pump fuel. Will def make over 600kw on e85. Didn't bother as my e-MAP was through the roof with my setup sitting past the choke line. I have a cnc ported and fully built head on my 3.2. Turbine speed saw max of around 109k rpm. I'm running this on my R32 GTR, with AC, and the original power steering pump. The manifold clears the AC lines, ABS, and everything else. Although I had new AC lines because I just wanted new ones and I heat wrapped them as well. This will make more power on a slightly lower capacity motor with a higher PR. And I have since upgraded to a G45-1500. Have pics and videos if need be.  Absolutely nothing wrong with setup. Turbo is in perfect condition. No shaft play or oil leaks at all. All the work was professionally done. The transient response of this is fkn amazing. I cannot rave more about this turbo. If I wasn't chasing 4 figures, I would have kept it. $5000 NZ. Located: Auckland, New Zealand.    
    • I particularly like the look of the John Player Special team. (Thumbnail isn't different but hit play for the clip)  
    • Such a cool collection of cars back then.  
    • Mystery solved, thanks bro Bit of a strange mix, but i dont mind it, still looks good. 
    • nah no problems with bearings or hubs.  just the water pump leak and my AC death
