Thats awesome!!

Is there a unique story about the car? How the owner acquired it ect?

Good question Dimi.
I asked the same ;)
We think alike.

Where the car was stored for 5 yrs until 2010 is not certain.

Bobby was given a heads up about 4+ Z-Tune cars being available up until 2009.
He was told of this "special" Z-Tune being part of the Nismo directorship that was emerging for sale; but sight unseen and with the sequence number still unknown, he had to slap a $10,000AUD deposit on it to be locked in.
Only after the deposit was paid, was he told that it was indeed #1 of 19 (the last 5 of which were conversion to Z-Tune requests).

Bobby only had the car for 3 weeks before deciding to attend the SAU.NSW R32 GT-R 21st Anniversary From Tench Pk Penrith to Katoomba.
A brilliant iconic photograph of the car was taken by Kory Leung whilst travelling up Bells Line Of Road in the mist.
It hasn't travelled any long distances since then.

So is 019 the last Z-Tune, or 018 (plus prototype BNR34-P001)? Everywhere has 2 prototypes and yet after looking at hundreds of photos and spending at least a few hours researching I haven't seen a second prototype car. Any input?

So........the million dollar question.....

 

Will you register it and use it?

Garage and do some heavy petting?

Wait for the years to roll by and then sell for the millions it will appreciate to?

tear it apart and sell it off for spare parts? <<< yeah that one is a joke.

In other words whats the plans, do you have any?

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.

      Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.

      I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.

      The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.

      Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
