Thinking About An R34

[AMS]

Hey Guys,

As you may have noticed in recent times, my Stagea is up for sale *wink*

So I am considering buying an R34 GTT coupe or sedan when I sell her. Just want to know a few things first. Before you ask, yes I did search, but couldnt find anything significant...here we go

1. Is it cheaper to buy an auto and convert it to manual?

2. Is there much difference between the coupe and the sedan (please dont state the obvious )

3. What offset wheels do they take?

4. Can you buy flared guards for the sedan?

5. What kind of bodykit does the 'Blitz' R34 Sedan have?

6. Does anyone on here own this R34...(or know who does)?

Thanks guys, much appreciated

Cheers,

Chris

OH, did I mention my Stagea was for sale? :lol:

Hey Guys,

As you may have noticed in recent times, my Stagea is up for sale  *wink*

So I am considering buying an R34 GTT coupe or sedan when I sell her. Just want to know a few things first. Before you ask, yes I did search, but couldnt find anything significant...here we go 

1. Is it cheaper to buy an auto and convert it to manual?  Not really unless you are doing most of the work yourself it would be more sensible to by a manual in the first place.

2. Is there much difference between the coupe and the sedan (please dont state the obvious : Performance wise not a lot, except the sedan is slightly heavier, and more room.  Manuals in a sedan are rare as hens teeth but they are around if you look hard enough.

3. What offset wheels do they take?  standard wheels are +40 but should take wheels with +35, +38 If you want them to sit further flush with the guards.

4. Can you buy flared guards for the sedan? : Not that I have seen any for sale but I guess its not impossible to get one made up.

5. What kind of bodykit does the 'Blitz' R34 Sedan have? That would be the URAS kit. www.uras.co.jp

6. Does anyone on here own this R34...(or know who does)? : Don't know who owns this. but looks good

Thanks guys, much appreciated

Answers as above...strictly my own opinion as I have done my own research before settling for a sedan version. Everyone else please feel free to comment. Do a search on "tiptronic" as well...don't be put off by the auto because with tiptronic its like almost having the best of both worlds. Good luck in your hunt!

Thanks mate The auto is the reason I'm selling the Stagea

I don't think buying an auto and converting it into manual is worth the effort and time though. What's more, certain things might not be compatiable with each other.

Sedans mostly come with tiptronic. Not a big difference between Sedans and Coupes. Same engine anyway.

If you are looking at importing one in...
