A excellent opportunity for someone who is mechanically minded and willing to put in a few weeks of TLC.

Story has it that I had bought this off someone who was in a desperate situation financially, so therefore I am able to part with this at a good price.

I don’t need the whole car and I am currently in the progress of building my own. Going to the extent of getting this to stock and selling it and probably making a few $$ along the way is something that I don’t have the time to do. So anyone out there who is willing and would like to get into a 34 for cheap – this is it!

Compliance : 8 Days left on Original Import Approval – In the process of applying for a transfer to my RAWS which will buy me a couple of months to comply this car if need be. My RAWS is in QLD, if this helps prospective buyers. I will hold out to next week before I make this application in case it needs to go to a different state. All import papers can be supplied

The DEAL

$24K

Car is running and is in Sydney at the moment in the current state as in Photos.

Drawbacks – Bonnet has flung up whilst driving and has dented it, nothing a carbon or fiberglass bonnet can’t fix. Paint is not in pristine condition. I would personally look into a respray if you would like to use it as a road car ($2K I have been quoted)

For the above price I intend on removing

Motor

Intercooler

Radiator

Exhaust

Coilovers

Rear diffuser

Race seat

Cage

$28K

I Can replace all the above parts out of my stock 2001 R34 GTR

Also i am willing to sell parts such as Rear seats, dash, and airbags if the focus is to return this car back to a stock state.

Please email vs PM as I wont be able to keep up at work and if you leave a number I will be able to call you back

I don’t see this lasting long :rolleyes:

Cheers

Steve

Would you take 12k?
LOL ^

12k for a non complied shell that needs some tlc, a new bonnet and a paint job. id say the buyer is still getting a rough deal

not to mention it comes with nothing...

For the above price I intend on removing

Motor

Intercooler

Radiator

Exhaust

Coilovers

Rear diffuser

Race seat

Cage

Guys, please spend the time to think about what comments you decide to put up on someones for sale thread.

My calculations has this restored and complied ready to register with a new coat of paint in the high 30's.

I would dare say this would be considered VERY cheap for a 99 Vspec.

An option at 24k for a chasis to develop into your own race car would still be very cheap, considering running gear,

brakes, wheels, gearbox etc are present.

But then again at 28K i would replace it all with stock parts that i remove.

At 32K have the whole interior and missing bits replaced from my stock GTR (With a week to two of your own hard work)

At 34.5K have this car complied

Finally at 36.5K if you were fussy and wanted pristine paint.

Add 1-2K for transport and misc charges

This equals one happy owner :sick:

But unfortunately a few bitter boys with not much to do on a friday night :whoops:

your calculations would be incorrect. just looking at the pics, there is alot of work/parts that need to be purchased to get this thing complied. by the looks of things its also had a hard life, so a coat of paint will be the minimum, and i don't know where you got a quote for 2k from but that would be the cheapest mask job ever, a realistic price for a good job would be around 6k.

vspec or not, 24k is alot of coin for a rolling shell, thats not even complied and that has barely any interior.

Okay mate, not sure what qualifications and ability you have to judge off photos taken on the dock in Japan. Without seeing this car in the flesh, you are no position to pass judgement and state it has had a hard life. I really dont understand where people get off making comments which have no value? quite frankly if you will not pay 24K for this car, this is your business, not mine so stay out of this thread.

The quote of 2K came from a qualified experienced spray painter that has had two of his cars featured front page of HPI. Mask Job? would never do this to a 34 gtr!!! :bunny:

lol my bad. I was jk about 12k! Im a toyota clown and know nothing about nissan prices so disregard my comment.

Probably incorrect for someone who doesnt know how to use a socket set. When your doing all the work yourself with a helping hand from friends all it takes is time. Ive seen this car first hand. Other than the hood (Which isnt that bad, still lines up, closes properly etc) the paint work (IMO) just needs a good buff, polish and wax!

Do u think u can give me the guys number that does full resprays for 2k .

I want to spray my gf's car .

I think his saying it's hard a tough life cause it is fully stripped with a cage and Has

Race seats

I was talking to the previous owner about this car.. Is the engine as good as it was talked up to be...? It would be a great starting point for a track car with a 26/30...

No, complete stock, just boltons as i suspected - pulled everything out on Friday.

Excelent starting point for a track/drag car - 34 gtr in the 20s - i dont see many IF any around.

26/30 vs stroker kit is my current delema :D

mate, im just saying what i think judging from the photos, which is what i have to go off as someone who is interstate and also interested, but not for a $24,000 rolling shell.

in terms of having a hard life, you can't possibly sit there and say that it hasn't. in the state that it is in now, its built purely as a track car, and its also been neglected in alot of areas ie - you say the paint isn't the best, the headlights are badly faded, the wing looks faded but that could just be the photo, there is alot of dirt in areas, oil residue on one of the chassis rails, a little bit of oxidization in the exposed boot, and other small things (not from being neglected) such as the bonnet being replaced and exposed holes from removing the diffusers.

not to mention the amount of work needed and money + time needed to source and buy the required parts to get this thing registered, not to even mention get it running. im not even factoring in labour costs because if i were to purchase this i would do everything myself.

paint job, 2k is either mates rates or a cheap job. end of story. for a panel beater to do a good quality proper job with all windows out, taking parts off etc that a 34r deserves, for 2 grand i guarantee you he would be losing money rather then making any.

engine - 4k minimum

gearbox - 600 - 1000

jap exhaust - 1k

interior bits - who knows

airbags - $$

decent coilovers - 1500

respray - 5k (being generous)

jap radiator and cooler - 1500

fair to say theres 40k already buying the roller at 24k. thats not including alot of little miscellaneous things, a clutch, fixing up any other problems such as bushes or brakes, all fluids, compliance costs etc etc

now im not trying to be a flamin mongrel, because if there is somebody who likes building a car up from scratch rather then just buying one, its most definitely me. but to do this PROPERLY, thats what your looking at, and my prices are quite fair and that is without any upgrades or a rebuilding an engine or box or diffs. i think my main problem with this thread is that you are making out this is a great opportunity for picking a 34r vspec up for REALLY cheap, however theres a lot of standard v-specs with pretty low km for sale in the mid 40's now-a-days, so it's not really the case.

    • 65601-05U00 is the hood latch. 62550-08U31 is the support that holds it to the radiator core support. They are all super discontinued so I don't really have any great leads on how to source this stuff.
    • GTSBoy on your suggestion on another thread I had a look at those injectors and ended up getting them because of the quality.  Got the expensive ones.  
    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
