Hi, First of i would like to say that your website is great to read through and has alot of helpful tips and an immense amount of project builds that make the day at work really fly by.
The many fights between r35 owners and the old skyline badged GTRs is alot worth reading as an outsider.
But down to the question im asking for basic tips on what to look for when buying my GTR right down to the ownership of the car on a realistic scale.
Id like to also note that i used the search function only to find a thread or two on buying a gtr but not specifically what im after.
If people could point me in the direction of an exsisting thread that would save alot of embarrisment.
If one does not exsist could somebody please inform me as to what i should look for when buying a GTR.. from a GTR owners perspective.
Is there any common faults with the 34's to look out for, weak spots, common failures etc etc.
Ive been told the oil pump is a necessity to replace, is this true and/or if to what extent?
Currently im owner to a Toyota supra with the getrag box... its time to move on as these supras in Australia are becomming too common and not so much the enthusists car anymore. Ive lost my passion for the car and i would like to move onto something more exclusive and only affordable for the passionate enthusists... if you get what i mean.
Any advice would be appreciated, i understand this is a odd first post but i had to start somewhere and im looking to jump into a 34 GTR Vspec within the next few months or earlier if the right one comes along.. Money is no concern so long as the the cars value meets its worth.
