im ready to buy a 34 gtr now. i decided to get a vspec 2 but only white ones are for sale near me atm.

What do u think about getting an earlierl vspec in blue or waiting or even trying to bring the right car from japan.

What would u guys rather have, a white vspec 2 or vspec in a better colour. I would rather a later car too though.

Help please i would like one before xmas.

If your set on a Vspec II then don't compromise...

I searched for a while for my Midnight Purple III 34 GTR

I'm very happy I had the patience to wait for the car I always wanted.

Did you notice the year I posted? >_<

Srsly, I'd bide my time and check out every one with a fine tooth comb starting with "VINS Fasted" thread here on forums and seek out the car's history, where it came from etc. As stated above, patience is a virtue.

Even one of our Business Traders here on SAU once bought a Bayside Blue VS, only to find rust in various spots. Please don't hurry!

My Bayside Blue VS2 I pick up in January has all its history stationed in and around Nara (rather than up north where they salt their roads).

I thought I saw 2x VS2s F/S in carsales I think. What condition were they in? When you hold the cash, you're in the box seat.

If buying local, comp test it; yaddayadda.

No i didnt see the year, must have tunnel vision. The white and silver ones on carsales both look like nice cars, though im not sure how badly i wat one that colour.

What made you decide to upgrade Terry?

Smithers,

My son is buying the Pearl Black R34 GT-R - whilst there's not a thing wrong with it.

He's selling http://www.skylinesa...san-bcnr33-gtr/ also whilst there's not a thing wrong with it.

> the Bronze LMGT4s will come off the Blue GTR-VS2 when it arrives and go onto the Black GTR

> the Gold Advan RG1s (with blue striping) will come off the Black GTR and go onto the Blue GTR

> father and son thing really Smithers > some nice roads will see us coming :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

("Victory" and his son have been doing the same thing)

      I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp

      Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆

      A little PU bush story

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
