So iv been saving for god knows how long to buy an R34 GT-T. Im in love with the car and have wanted nothing else. Currently the avg price of a manual r34 gt-t is around 15-20k for a decent one where ever I look. However i was tagged in a post on Facebook with a guy selling his 'gt-t' for 14k but its a rather perculiur case. Its actually an R34 GT with a full GT-T conversion. Images of the car look great but i was wondering if you guys could give some insite to weather it will be worth the potential hassel or not? Go easy one me

Im selling my Red 1998 R34 25gt+t Ive owned this car for nearly 6 years and I have a new car so this is up for sale!
The car: - Second australian owner - The shell is an Auto 25gt by compliance. It has 116***km on the clock, but was clocked back 40***km when Edward Lee's imported the vehicle (left Japan with 103k km, arrived with 63k km) - Rear cradle is the non hicas cradle left from the 25gt. - complete wiring, dash, interior, engine bay parts, engine, gearbox and tailshaft are all from a gtt. - Everything is stock gtt parts on the car, including the intercooler, boost actuator, and turbo. (the car these parts came from had done 104***km, can't confirm is that is legitament or not). - upgraded parts are the fuel pump (walbro 255), and a 3 inch stainless steel cat back. - Paintwork is fairly average on the car with a couple of small dents (seen in pictures) - Engine had a rebuild 8000km ago by Unique Automotive. - manual gearbox - GTR wheels - Custom Coilovers

I'd say just tip in another K and get the GT-T that was built as such from factory.

There's a lot of labour in that car no doubt, but to me there's more more to go wrong.

Also, Edward Lee's name itself is a red flag. It might be a Grade R car for all you know.

      Use text replace function to auto-link to referred threads?

      Yeah the issue here is that we have a lot of topics, unless we matched on the exact word & phrase we'd get a million topics and the one you want will not likely be in the top 20 or so.

      Yeah great idea, I have already added R32 Wiring Diagram but we can add as many as we want. 100% ! This has been something I've wanted to do for a while. I thought we could have a way for people to 'suggest' a link be added to the library when they come across something good.  We could kick this along by allowing members (maybe a subset) to tag threads they find to allow us to more easily find/locate/use good content, ie a tag 'for-library' which can then be added to the library and maybe have the tags reviewed and updated to better match the content. This would make it easier then to find the content when not using the library. We can also create pages that have lists of content with specific tags. That would allow us to add a tag and then have it automatically added to a page. We could have a page just for the 'for-library' content that we could then moderate and put wherever.  This excites me, the lack of structure with the amount of content is a little overwhelming.

      RB25DET Engine Oil Dipstick Length

      Of course you can. That was a waste. Straight down one oil drain gallery and out the sump hole. Could at least have run the engine a little (obviously with at least minimum oil level on the stick).

      Fixing exhaust position?

      By PranK · Posted

      Oh really? Maybe I'm being silly. I'll get some more shots. I had it higher but found that it went too high after a drive, I never knew this but exhausts can move around a bit when hot (makes sense, just never knew) and when it was higher it would make nice cooking plastic smells. That said, I could put some heat tape on a'la 90's R33 exhausts     Ha, I've spent a lot of my life in castle hill waiting for cars to be done. I think I'd prefer something closer but thanks D.

      RB25DET Engine Oil Dipstick Length

      @Duncan Yes, changed filter every time. I don't have the service manual for the car yet (Car was imported and they removed everything when importing). I've been using the oil change threads in the forum as reference.   @Milkmun The second oil change was after ~4 months after the first months and I wasn't sure about reusing engine oil that was opened. The third oil change happened within 3 weeks of the second oil change and I used the previous leftover oil to just "clean up" the system. (Poured it through while the sump plug was open")
