$105k Sports car that is 25 years old with a systemic oil starvation issue that has in most cases been modified, driven hard, heaps of KM's under the belt and poorly maintained. Of course it lets go.

Skylines break like any other modified car does. Maintenance is cheap. Brand new 5 spead Gearbox $3000, rebuilt 1500, Dsg upward of 5k Diff 400, priced a C63 diff lately? I would be scared to. Gear

Pro tip... If you can't afford two you can't afford one. That is all.

Agree with the above ^^

i would almost argue the R34 has more history than the rest.

By the time the 34 came along, the others caught up and passed them, well except for that special , ah something ????

If GTR's are going to go up in price, what price will GTST/GTT's be in the future? If a R34 GTR is worth $70-80k. what's a GTT worth? Half? I've seen a few good condition R32 gtst go for near 15k. apparently Americans like RWD skylines too. If you look at carsales good condition R32,33,34 GTST/GTT prices seem healthy compared to a few years ago! along with a lot of 90's JDM cars.

There was around 5 R34 GTT's around 30k the last time I looked at Carsales. Crazy.

This thread has been amazing to read. Very soon you will be able to get R35's for less than R34 GTR's which is ridiculous in my opinion.

You can read on the Terry Tung-Yep Timeline on Fb where there's been a healthy debate about Iron Chef's article about the top 10 (or indeed 20) cars to watch due to auction movements, demand versus supply, etc...

      Thanks for your insight, it being basically useless will impact my decision for sure. I thought it may help the engine breath better I guess. But then again, I have also been told that tuning an RB20DE is also not worth it. Exactly, we follow EU Regulations. There is a bit more leeway on older vehicles. My Porsche 924 came without a cat from factory and managed to pass, they still mentioned that I have quite high emissions on it though.

      City of Casey - This is obscene!

      My apologies, I stand corrected. Thanks for registering to mention this! And thank you for actually reaching out to the council to clarify. This is the sensible thing to do and the opposite of what I was alluding you were doing. I may have seen too much outrage and hate being fueled on the internet and it has made me a somewhat cynical old man. Sometimes it is easy to forget that there are real people behind websites and accounts. In my defence, CarExpert and CarExplore do read quite similarly at a glance. I shall try and do better in the future. (Please stick around to get the latest scoops on dealing with old Nissan shitboxes )

      Don't bother. The poor little RB20 doesn't make enough gas flow to challenge the flow capabilities of even the littlest cat, and you won't make any extra power, and all you'll do it soot up your rear bumper. Plus....is Malta not runing under Euro regs?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Hey Daniel, sorry to hear that and thanks for posting up for us at a really hard time I only knew SmoothLine through the forums, we never met as we are based in different states, but when he was most active on here he was quite a while back so not many of the current crowd might remember him. I am pretty sure he was active in the Queensland SQU club but that is defunct now too (times are changing and we are all getting older). Farewell SmoothLine!

      R34 manual conversion wiring

      By ValgeKotkas · Posted

      Turns out depending on whether the car was equipped with TCS or not there are different signals coming to the dash, meaning there are different speedo clusters.  Wired in a speedo calibrator box from aliexpress and now works fine.
