Bored as all f*ck at work, looking around on Carsales at what's on the market - Come across this.

What do you guys think? Reckon asking price is acheivable given how rare the car is?

Looks amazing.

Basically the asking price is justified by the rarity of what it is.

M-Spec's are just luxury models of the V-Spec's and the limited numbers made.

Equipped from factory standard with Ripple Control Shock Absorbers / Heated Leather Seats / Leather Steering Wheel with Silica Breath being the unique colour designated for this version of R34 GTR, along with other standard colours.

But considering the modifications that has been done, I'd say it's serious about performance.

Rarity is one thing but at the end of the day, it's just a luxury V-Spec.

I can't justify it for the price.

If I had $100,000 I'd just buy a base model R34 GTR, spend it on the modifications for a nice street / light track setup and still have quite a bit left over in the wallet.

Ha I have inspected this car and driven it. Came extremely close to buying it to.

It was owned by jerry on here, and I had an accepted offer on it for a tiny bit more than half the asking price currently! Have no idea what it sold for though.

I fell through with the sale because after a pre purchase inspection I found the whole front of the car had been resprayed and looked as though the rad support had possibly been replaced, was also told by educated ppl kms could be double or more (although they were still low).

It took alot of convincing to not buy the car though as it was presented beautifully.

Not to damage the sale, not sure if the guy is on here, but I dont think its worth 100k considering I have seen mspec nurs asking less!

DAAAAMN! Yeah let's hope the bloke still isn't on here or else that could potentially ruin the sale - Maybe that's why it's still up for sale.. judging by the pictures it does look immaculate but now that this has been uncovered. Could also help a potential buyer..

Nah the 60 year old mechanical engineer the guy mentions in the add is jerry, he is the previous owner I delt with. So I have no idea what he ended up selling it for, or who the current owner is.

Not out to ruin the guys sale just save fellow members the hassel if that is a deal breaker for them. If anyone is guinely interested in the car I could maybe dig up the old inspection report.

Yeah definitely can relate to the above. But i guess in the case of a bone stock M-spec it would be more of a collectors item would it not?

Depending on the modifications done... The price can swing either way...

But I'd say a bone stock M-Spec would be leaning towards it being worth more.

Due to the fact that it is still in it's original condition...

only M-spec in collector condition would be worth near that money in my opinion. the minute you put in HKS bits on it... it not longer is collector / investment level car, unless he has everything stock still with him, i don't think its worth that much.

Still a bloody nice BNR34.

Admittedly it is a beautiful car but severely overpriced imo. From memory there was an M-Spec on car sales 5-6 months ago with an asking price 25k less than this, albeit i know nothing of its quality.

Lol!

I bought my own car off the previous owners son. I had a good chat with the previous owner of this car today and know what it was sold for and it DEFINATELY isn't anywhere close to what this guy is asking! It was an immaculate car. The stock parts are still in the previous owners garage.

    • I’m only posting this cause I thought I had seen a bad review on these somewhere before. Any feedback? Would you guys recommend that if I do buy these I send em to RC to have em checked before installing. Or any other suggestions?   https://www.ebay.com/itm/114009965865?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=JDl-15yLQ8C&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=QTzlFXB1S-S&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
