_Shane_ Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 Well after the supra moving on I needed something to replace it and all i knew is it had to be mint and something special I am pleased to announce the new motor. Its a 2001 R34 GTR V-Spec Car has 20,500 miles, i will be the first Irish owner and all I can say is the car is stunning. Car was mapped by Apexi when they were over with CDA (Irish Tuning Company) and produced 455.9 BHP Car comes with Full Ohlins Coilover setup HKS front mount Full HKS exhaust system Turbo elbows replaced / downpipes Apexi Power FC and Hand Commander Full GTR Lip Kit Arc Carbon slam panel HKS twin Filters BBS gold 18'' rims Clear timing belt cover Greddy timing belt Greddy cam pulleys The car is absolutely mint, the road presence is something else. Still has not sunk in that I bought a 01 GTR lol Sorry about the crap pic, taken by camera phone. Will have better ones next week when the car arrives Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_Shane_ Posted July 13, 2009 Author Share Posted July 13, 2009 the vrt on this is coming in around the 10k euro mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 Is that per year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kearney Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 the vrt on this is coming in around the 10k euro mark Ouch, well it'd be worth it when its all reg'd up and all. Only bit of advice I have for you on this car. It likes to empty your wallet on a regular basis. I just couldn't afford to run my yoke after awhile. When the oil pump went that was it.. too expensive to fix and it broke my heart having to get rid of it. But that looks like a tidy motor you have there so you should be fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supramkivcork Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 Vrt scott is vehicle registration tax. It applies when someone registers the car first on Irish plates. Has to be paid on a new car or second hand if it comes from another country. It is the way the Irish government sodomises the Irish motorist the most.

Axle Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 Nice. How do you find it compares to the Supra? Positives and Negatives. Main thing that really dissapointed me about the Skylines was their interior. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Wilson Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 Looks stunning, but watch for rust, the 34 tends to be a real rot box once it gets a hold, I don't know why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl_S Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 Congrats on buying an all round better car than the supra. It looks better, it feels better, it's newer. Any regrets? Edit: The blue magic tree seems to contrast violently with the hi-tech interior. Does it smell nice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
