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 :rofl: 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.

$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.

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.

      Possible swap on R34 RB20DE NEO?

      By Kapr · Posted

      @GTSBoy Yeah i know. The RB20 has 180Nm torque and the gearbox "should" take up to 400Nm if you are not doing stuff like drag/drift or dumping clutch and of course then it is pure "luck" on how will it last. My problem is (i think i said this in different post) that my car was very badly maintain so i would not be suprised if the oil in the gearbox was not changed until i bought it. Yeah the gearbox seem little bit sad.   @Sxnjeet the +T seem very interesting but from where iam from it was nearly "impossible" to done right and not blow twice as money as just swap for the RB25.

      Spray painting interior plastics

      By MBS206 · Posted

      If the plastic wore, the paint will wear quicker. Heck, most car manufacturers cant keep the coatings they put on their buttons/trims alive these days for more than 5 years... A cheap paint won't do it!   However, you can get away with high quality vynil wrap, primarily in areas that won't cop much abuse. Skip colour matching, and just try and wrap a specific area with an edge in a new colour.   PS vynil wrapping is a prick of a job, and I suck at it, even for a small dead flat surface...

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I think this is more a question you should ask the tuner. My assumption is you have nothing plugged into the original pin for ring gear crankshaft, which is where your map sensor should get wired to, but now you've asked the tuner to disable it. I'm assuming (because I haven't memorised your setup) you are using RB25 ECU on the RB20 loom, to plug into an RB25. You will want to check what else is connected potentially backwards between the engine, loom, and ECU. You might be all fine and safe. The best solution you could have done is wire in a map sensor, and leave the ECU able to read a map sensor.
