Sydney :) Really hard to find decent R34's in NSW, but im willing to fly out to buy a good one

Check out my GTV if your interested.

Link was posted above.

1 point is to ensure that it is a genuine factory manual, due to most of the r34's being trip-tronic, alot of home-made conversions are done which can put you in trouble in the future.

trip-tronic ones are just as good though, compared to my manual 32 before my trip-tronic 34 at the moment, i would pick the trip-tronic. its a better daily, especially if your from a city. feels like your driving a manual without clutch.

but whatever floats your boat :). Good luck with finding a good one :).

You've got that right, but ive got a close to mint turbo one and im in Sydney - so dont be discouraged, there still are a few good R34's left.

By the time you finish looking though you may end up saving more cash and also want / be able to drive a turbo one. May just be worth holding off buying one until then.

Im in a similar boat to you, only im looking for a very clean (and close to stock) bayside blue vspec 34 gtr. Im assuming that theres also a few good ones left, but by the time i finish looking - i'll probably end up with a R35.

Yeah, i know what you mean. Would rather factory manual over a transmission conversion any day of the week, but just as long as its manual . . been driving manuals my whole life .. and im only 19 .. just a passion i guess :) I refuse for any car i own to be auto, until im like a family man .. or until i mature a bit more. and neither of those are happening any time soon. you get the picture XD

Lets hope so, well ive found a few ones that meet my description for about 12 k .. + 1000 or so to get it registered in NSW. And im like desperate as im very sick of my beemer, had it for about 2 years now .. fun but just a dud.

planning on buying round early feb next year when i have the funds 100%. dont really want to hold out either as ive psyched myself up about it soooooo much.

Cant compromise for anything less than what i want i guess. Hoping someone posts that perfect 34 on here :)

Good luck on your end as well man

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
