So.. i want to buy an r34

[Arcane]

Hi all, ive been wanting an r34 for a while now so ive been looking around

my major requirements are turbo, manual and coupe

ive found this one, the kit it has is MAD!! love it... but its n/a

a - im curious what kit it is?!

b - how expensive stupid is it to convert the n/a to a turbo

the car on carsales.com.au

Any thoughts or comments would be appreciated

thanks in advance

You could import a turbo 5 speed for that price that he is asking for.

To convert to a turbo it would be ridiculously expensive and would most likely cost you more to convert than to buy one already done from factory.

You'd need to upgrade your gear box, brakes etc.

By the looks of that too, I reckon this bloke has thrashed it because of it's N/A factor by people trying to run him at lights I could be wrong.

Check out the import sites dude, you'll find one at that price turbo manual and coupe.

A few import places I recommend are

www.j-spec.com.au

www.imports101.com.au

www.importcars.com.au

Import cars is REALLY good he will look after you.

Also Danny at imports 101 is great.

Good luck in your search mate.

Thanks,

i will try that!

and i dont think ill try and convert an n/a! cheers

any ideas on the kit?

[Sumo]

You dont want to convert a N/A to turbo.... More hastle then its worth - from what it would cost your better off just buying a turbo one to start with.

$26k is way too much for an na 34.

i got my R34 for about that price imported through J-Spec - manual, turbo & coupe. But, since then, i have yet to see one that cheap unless it's either an automatic, four door, or well over 100,000 k's.

I think the kit is a Bomex kit - because i was looking @ one for mine and it looked exactly like that one.

Appears to be a bomex kit.

Here are a few examples of R34's through J-Spec imports - all with different stats

Ouch expensive!!

any idea howmuch something like that would be to buy/fit/paint?

[sktz-34]

i got a quote for somthing similar minus the T wing from Jetspeed. They quoted me $1100 for rear bar, side skirts & front bar. $150 for fitting. But that's not painted.

this guy is on these forums, ive seen the car around a few times in SE suburbs but ye its way too much for an NA

[fLipKnot]

personally i feel that the Skyline on carsales is quite gay. i think he is trying to rip off some poor guy that have not much ideas about skylines.

[predator]

well he is probably trying to get somewhat back what he paid for it.. probably about $30k 12-24 months ago.. unfortunately things don't quite work like that. Somebody will probably buy it though

[R33_Cam]

definately bomex, it looks exactly the same as my 34 except for the wheels and the wing, nice kit but very low on the sideskirts near the rear wheels if u have a lowered car.......

[r34_skyline]

yeh i guess its expensive considering the Km's its got.

usually the dealer sells a non turbo for around the 29k mark.

[Guest reggin]

how much would all you guys pay for a n/a r34 manual coupe then? with say 70,000km's on it?

[**JaR**]

yeah its a bomex one, i've seen that car on here before as well, some young dude owns it from memory

i got my R34 GTT for about that price imported through J-Spec - manual, turbo & coupe. But, since then, i have yet to see one that cheap unless it's either an automatic, four door, or well over 100,000 k's.

I think the kit is a Bomex kit - because i was looking @ one for mine and it looked exactly like that one.

i know someone who got a '98 R34 auto 4 door w/ only 40,000k's on it for $28k.. sure tis 2k more.. but still a damn good price..

I think that's expensive... in my earlier post i said "But, since then, i have yet to see one that cheap unless it's either an automatic, four door, or well over 100,000 k's". I've seen many auto R34's/four doors for about $20k, imported and that includes compliance.
