Evo's good yesss but how often do you see a gtr compared to a evo ? i sold my evo cause it got sickening every tom dick harry and jack has one.

And yet you also sold your R34 V spec II Nur....I believe you had a 34 gtr before the Nur too and also sold that

Lol.. Buying a GTR is never about logic first of all..

Second 10-15k will not make an evo drive anything like what sinisters 34 will

GTR is a great car. R32 r33 and r34. Never doubted that. I am a former GTR owner. I personally think spending 60k + on a 34 gtr, stock or modded, is just not very ideal considering highly modified r33 gtrs are going for less than 30k and drive pretty much the same as r34. Evos on the other hand, they are just weapon. 15k can pretty much cover a rebuilt motor, FP red or green turbo, E85 setup and E85 tune and can get you around 350awkw.

Anyway what it comes down to, is the buyer's preference. Just my two cents

Well if you wanted to look at my car history i've had 3 GTR's now having owned both evo and gtr at the same time i ended up with the GTR at the end ;)

that being said i would choose evo over gtr for daily

well back to the original questions lol has anyone seen this GTR before http://www.carsales....2/?Cr=7&sdmvc=1

still have a few more to inspect. Cheers guys !

few things with that GTR

1. He has not bothered to move it when he washed it, so the dude is lazy.

2. he has not bothered to clean the interior properly at all, so the dude is really lazy.

3. he didn't even wipe the engine over, takes two seconds.

4. the mods themselfs look alright, though it looks like he has pretty much done them on the cheap and that worries me.

5. the lack of interior photos makes me wonder what the condition of the rest of the interior is in.

With just those alone ^^ makes me wonder what hidden gems there are on that car.

not sure on the specifics of the Z tune bonnet but i know CF bonnets unless ADR approved (that one might be?) will not pass a RWC.

I wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole. But that's just me.

thanks for the info - im guessing this is just on the basis of the ad right ? or have you seen the car in person by any chance ?

cheers mate :)

Info? Its just guess work based off some low quality dodgy camera photos.

If you are interested in the car you need to go see it.

I would ask:
Are the turbos stock (It is an odd way to modify a car with an ECU, fuel system when the limiting factor is the turbros). Also who tuned it?

Has it had a front end accident? I would ask this because new bonnet, front lip, pods, radiator tend to indicate it may have. I would have a good look at it for signs of front end damage and repair.

I agree, of course the best way to inspect the car would be to fly down there and check it out myself, but if someone else has seen it in person and has picked what you just said then it saves me an inspection and flight down to vic which i could use to fly and check someone else's gtr :)

thanks for the info bud, definitely going to ask what you just said :)

Well the other fun question to ask is who imported and complied it. Will be on a plate somewhere I think or the owner should know. If it is one of the less reputable car yards then you have saved yourself and airfare.

based on the adds.

And i would also agree it has had a front end hit.

Just asked him, just seems more suspicious as he takes so long to reply and delays sending me photos of the car, its like his not serious in selling it, thanks for the opinion/advice guys helps a lot considering it will be my first gtr !

however end up spending more if it has been taken care of like crap - but if it is in good condition then yes could potentially be a bargain !

Well to be fair some people in this world are busy or don't have everything at their finger tips. Doesn't make them dodgy, just busy.

It is nice looking, but the last line of the add says not a V Spec

Sales ploy to get better price ?/

You'll probably find the carsales is so crap that you cant list a non vspec or they just screwed up the add. Anyway there are only 9 cars listed so what difference does it make? They said its not correct and to be honest if it was me I wouldn't be paying a premium for V specery.

Would be much more interested in confirming the mileage.

    • The hot exhaust light will come on not from just the cat being blocked, but it's just a temp sensor, and it's designed to warn you to not do things like park in long grass.   If you've been pushing the motor a bit, it can cause the light to come on.   Second if the cat is rattling, I'd suspect it's not blocked, but instead falling apart inside.   The easiest "fix" until you can get a cat put back in, is to unbolt your one, bash the rest of the insides out, and then bolt it back in.   For a daily driver/street car, I am in agreeance of put a cat in the car. If it were race car I wouldn't care if it were removed.
    • No worries at all 🫡 I think the most satisfying things to make are the little bits that are just impossible to find or they're no longer manufactured. Generally I always try to replace parts with OEM wherever possible. This little project is also great because it'll never see the light of day, but strengthen these brackets so it's not just relying on the little standard screws in the headlight plastic. As soon as I saw the standard brackets and screws I thought, "well I'm not going to install with just the screws, the plastic tabs will just snap off". It's crazy how expensive everything has become yeah. But I suppose that's supply and demand; granted it's a lot easier to get brand new genuine parts these days which is fantastic 😊, I don't have to get totally reamed at the local Nissan dealer ha ha We sure are lucky we have all these manufacturers making parts these days, a few really great Australian companies too like Platinum Racing Products and Fit Mint Automotive, what a time to be alive ❤️ . I've got my eye on the RB26 head by PRP as mine has a very fine hairline crack, so that'll need to be addressed some time in the future. If you have any requests or odd things to make feel free to let me know and I can have a crack at making replacement parts ✌️
    • Thanks for sharing this, and BTW if your headlights are in good condition they are worth thousands....you might want to consider replacing them with brand new LED ones like this (https://www.nengun.com/78works/full-led-headlights-r32-skyline) and making enough profit to buy a house in Sydney
    • I'm not sure what sort of shops are nearby, but I'd expect any reasonable exhaust shop could put a cat in it that will not restrict the power that engine makes. Otherwise, if you want to remove it, short lengths that replace the cat are readily available online, search for "de-cat pipes" or "test pipes"
