Interesting to read that they weren't original cars but pre-owned monsters - doesn't take away the fact that I would give my mother to pay for this car, just not sure where I'd get the other £100k from

I'd mod a Z-tune....is that a bad thing? Granted, we're talking VERY minor changes, a couple of gauges, a line lock for the brakes, etc.

Man, I wouldn't even put an air freshener in it!
In fact, you'd have to wipe your feet before you got in it !!!

Story of the Aus Z-Tune, is the original owner found it was boring to drive because it had too much Grip. Im not going to say who said what, but thats what i was told.

Top it off with the fact he put in pointless ICE in to the car as if it isnt a pleasure enough to listen to the car running...its a bit annoying to me, why someone would do that, i dont know if its still for sale, but i was very close to buying it and sending it back to Omori to get it put back to normal, but my other half advised me to buy the 32 instead (made more sense in the long run).

My Z-tune still has the plastic covers on the seats too

its done a few road miles and is just a tad over what this one is at, mine came with about 30kms on the clock. its not at 41 if i remember right.

ANYWAY, i hope this goes to a good home really do!

Oh and there was one in HK i think they guy replaced the brembos with endless BBKs haha. Oh well, to each their own, if i had the kind of expendable income some people have, id love to own more than one of these for sure! To bad none of the silly countries i reside in offer any feasible method of importing these cars, yet.

the only thing i prefer on my R34 to his is the ashtray holder is black on mine

haha.. its in the silver i always wanted too!!!
how much is this goin for??

Pez301 · 12th April 2008, 04:43 PM

Rain, it must be painful to wait for 2021 to have the right to drive it. I think you should bring that z tune home, this way , at least you can talk with it while waiting

chanman · 14th April 2008, 06:22 AM

why 2021? rain where r u located?

Rain · 14th April 2008, 03:10 PM

2021? bloody hell i hope not, ive driven it a few times already, its already registered its just not where i am currently.

chanman · 14th April 2008, 10:23 PM

i agree with you on about keeping the z tunes standard. didnt the one in australia get an aftermarket steering wheel put on aswell. a red cheappy one. i couldnt do tht to a z tune, i think its perfect the way it came out of nismo

stealth · 14th April 2008, 11:07 PM

Why mod a z tune ? They designed to be pretty good and thats what you pay the prices for ,surely any mods on these cars is a price downer.

6speed · 16th April 2008, 09:52 PM

So Gorgeous I could spit.

plkettle · 19th April 2008, 08:45 AM

i DO NOT understand why someone would buy one of these and NOT drive it ????

WTF ? that is just pure sacrilege to keep it locked in a garage and not used for its only purpose - going bloody fast.

sickens me to my bones it really does.

if you have the money for one of these then you have enough to put some petrol in it and go to the nurburg ring for a while.
