So, I'm sitting at a red light last night and I see this car coming at me... I quickly realize it has a GTR badge... My first thought was "Imposter" Then as it get's closer I realize there is only one person in the car and they are on the RIGHT side... Then it comes along side and I finally get a full view of it... it was the real deal. I know of some R32's and even an R33 around San Diego, but R34's are near impossible to import into Cali. I was awe struck.

Probably not as big of a deal to most of you as it was to me, but I had to share my excitment. It sounded PURE EVIL too


Rod.

 

there is guy here in chicago that has a georgous show car that is sho and go R34 GTR he owns a speed shop.... topspeedchicago.com .... you can see it around...he is from japan so he brought it with him as well as his silvia s15 is is also amazing...damn rich japanese bastard... pics of it on his website if interested.

 

i only know of one imported here, and it was 250,000 to get licenced and in the country, there are many hoops to jump through to get this, so ya its a big deal. my buddy at nissan knows how to do it, and he even got to drive it around for a few weeks while it was here, thing was crazy fast, and i missed out on a ride. and never took pics.

 

Theres about 3-4 R32's rolling around Reno/Tahoe, and I've only seen 1 R33 (supposedly there is a loophole to getting it registered in NV....something about the no-emission areas) so I've seen em (not very often)....but never an R34, that's sweeeet man.

Closest I've ever been was at HIN in San Mateo....that's the only time I've ever seen one in person. Probably go nuts if I saw one at a light around here.

 

the gt-r is fun, but seriously over priced..

 

NO IT ISNT.....you only say that cuase you live here....the importing and legalization fees are over priced
if you lived in japan you could get an R33 GT-R for under 20 grand i believe.....they are priced just about right i tihink.....america is just a a **** bag about importing cars...

 

there is a r-34 gtr in El- Cajon California 92020 its dark blue i saw it over by the DMV over by the RALLYES HAMBURGERS and that LITTLE NICKEL ARCADE PLACE.. i belive its GREENWOOD DRIVE that was about a 6 or 7 years about..

 

i spotted r-34s in japan every day .

 

AND YOU DIDN'T CALL ME?! I would of been over there to race him in a sec!

 

about 20-30k for a used somewhat good condition GTR, but thats only if you buy from a private party, then you have to deal with the actuall shipping, fly over there, drive the car to company, spend about 4 hours filling out paper work, then customs has to inspect it, then once its in the US you have to have it inspected again by customs, pay the fee's, then you have to have it shipped to your house..

 

bah bah bah..i said buying it over there....nothing about bringing it hear....so the prices for the CAR are good...thats my point.,..it shipping and legalixation thats a bitch....which is technically not a cost of the car its self....

 

The Best Way To Get It Shipped Over Here Is If You Are Millitary. You Are Allowed To Take One Car Over There. Best Way Is To Take A Old American Muscle Car ( They Are Like R-34's To Them ). They Pay Top Prices For American Cars. Buy A R-34 And Have The Millitary Ship It Over For You. One Thing You Can Do To Get It Into The Us Cheaper Is To Weld A Roll Cage In It And Get It Registered As A Drag Car. Then Sell It.

 

i dont see much point in buying a car and leaving it there..

 

Noo You Take A American Muscle Sell It For Alot Over There Buy A R-34 Or What Ever You Want And Ship That Back To The Us The Millitary Will Pay For The Shipping Of One Car To And From.

 

anybody got a pic?? maybe i'v seen the one from elcojones around? i have detroit iron in el cabrones, somewhere.........
