Very clean interior for its age, a few burns etc in the carpet, some of the plastics are starting to crack/fray but overall its clean inside. Dash is in very good condition.

All electrics work

WORKING Air conditioning

Short shifter

200W Alpine CD player

5” Kenwood front speakers

Pioneer 6x9’s

Custom black carpeted MDF parcel shelf

Sports steering wheel and boss kit

Exterior

Unfortunately its missing the front air dam.

Body is quite straight, has a few dents being an old car

Paint work is ok, a little average in areas. Unfortunately it was fitted with gas at some point, and the gas pillar is in the rear quarter panel.

Factory TRX Wheels + TRX spare alloy wheel

All headlights, indicators, brake lights etc work. White LED parkers

It has a large battery, it has just had the following serviced; Engine oil, oil filter,spark plugs, brake fluid, radiator hoses, coolant, thermostat, New timing belt and gearbox oil.

Large battery fitted.

To get the most out of its performance, a more free flowing exhaust and a 4.11:1 diff could be fitted and it will be quite the little rocket.

SERIOUS BUYERS ONLY PLEASE! I dont have the time for tyre kickers.

    • I have replaced everything on my r34 including suspension to Miester R, all rear subframe bushes to poly, all arms to metal adjustable and same in front.   only thing I haven't touched is the front lower control arm. Should I? what improvement can i expect ? I mean the one on the link below?   Car drives perfectly, it is just me thinking everything is either puly bush or hard bearing type so should also do lower control arm front but do I really need it ? https://www.japspeed.co.uk/product/suspension/adjustable-arms/nissan-200sx-s13-s14-s15-skyline-r32-r33-r34-adjustable-suspension-front-lower-control-arms/?gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiAo5u6BhDJARIsAAVoDWs5V_PauQPf0kx3zFCaA4tOC9Q7JSIsfJWma_jAPN2f1sJA686djOwaAidgEALw_wcB
    • Thanks for the link.....but I'm still not totally understanding (a bit slow). So as long as the host unit supports carplay or android auto, you plug the unit to a USB C port, and then change the AV source?  Does the unit run its own apps (eg I could run Real Dash or Torque etc) or does it rely on a host phone and just run Android Auto from the phone (which is very limited compared to full Android?). And, does the touch screen work for the apps? Only the bottom screen or the top screen as well? The 4g wifi looks like a good feature if you have kids with devices in the car (noting none of the versions seem to support 700mhz Telstra)
    • Mate, if Australian build quality was an eye opener, wait until you try a Chrysler. If you need space and fuel economy (and you don't want to hit the track) a fuga hybrid is the way to go. Similar power to the 400r (270kw), roomy, comfortable, good on fuel, great build quality
    • Um...that thing looks terrible. I'd be looking for replacements tout de suite. WTF is it made of? Die cast cardboard?
