You’re absolutely correct, these cars are Butt expensive and it’s ridiculous, not to mention the modification prices, since I doubt anyone buys an R34 to keep it stock.

When used R34 GTRs were around 50-60k it was a obtainable dream car for me. I had every intention of throwing money at one in 2024. However after money printer started going brrrrr like crazy in 2020 and 2021 that dream is more or less dead, especially when you consider they'll cost 140k+ for a high miles example by then. It's not even remotely worth it to me at that price. I'd love to see what you think between the MK4 vs MK5 Supra too.

Imo the R33 GTR gives the best bang for the buck, ive driven all 3 generations and owned the R33 GTR V-spec for 10.5 years. It is better driving than the r32, got almost all the tech of the r34 chassis, while also providing the most interiour space. And if you desperatly want a 6th gear or mfd, you could retrofit both.

@@gtrulez I am aware of production numbers. I have been looking to sell 1 of my 240z's to buy an R32 or R33 GTR. But I'm still not sure I really want to do that. For me the R32 GTR has slightly more appeal because I remember it racing at Bathurst in the early 90s. I agree the 33 is more refined, but I find the styling a little bland (probably because you see so many R33 GTSTs about). However I do like the series 3 R33 GTRs and the 400R is an amazing machine. But I also have a Nissan Stagea 260rs (99 model) which as you probably know has an Rb26 and is the perfect family hauler. So I feel I've kind of scratched the itch of a GTR. Plus they only made 1,700 of those! I've always kind of preferred the Rx7s and I'm in the process of getting my FD back on the road now. I feel the GTR is a cool JDM icon but it's more muscle / GT car than pure sports car. Where as the FD is as pure a sports car experience as you can get.

I had an R33 GTR Vspec. I sold it in regards to purchase an R34 GTR. I had a friend that had one that let me drive it and it felt the same. What I hated the most is the skyline community, in a way, kind of like the supra community, is the toxicity, insecurity and jealousy from the tuner world. Really was a put off. I ended up getting a Gen 5 Viper. I want an R34 GTR as much as the next guy, but for a clean one, your over 200K. I’d rather get an Gen 5 ACR viper for that price

It's really not big at all, the R34 looks bigger in person, honestly. It had a slightly longer wheel base than the R32 and R34, which made it a little worse on tight circuits but also more stable on fast stretches of road/track. The biggest drawback is the 5 speed vs. the 6 speed manual.

I bought my R33 out of the bottom of my heart. I was in love with it when I first learned about it. Already going stupid with my money on it, but cost of parts is not the issue for owning these cars, it's finding the parts.

The biggest problem with the R34 is the over-hype it gets nowadays. It was a great car for being more or less a Japanese BMW M3: fast but practical and unique and interesting but not a full blown exotic and all sold for a reasonable price. The reasonable price aspect has been blown out of the water, now you can get a Porsche or Ferrari from that era for less money, so what the hell is everyone doing paying so much for R34s? I just said fuck it and got a motorcycle, I'll destroy almost any car and it only cost me $5700 for a pristine used one. It's actually hilarious, so far I've had Porsches, Teslas, and even a Lambo once line up next to me at a red light and "suddenly need to turn right" because they know they'd get embarrassed. You don't feel bad riding motorcyles hard, either, because they're way more serviceable than cars and if you somehow blow an engine a nice used one off of eBay is like $2k max because there are so many out there from totaled bikes.

As a detailer and having clients and friends who were financially stable to buy and modify all sorts from around the globe.... my personal opinion is that off.. if you can afford it and you want it the buy it. Having sat in the passanger seat of a few i can say that there is a great thrill but it does wear off rather quickly when you consider most of the people who own them will never push the limits of the gtr never mind pushing it on a b road. The best fun ive ever had was in an old supercharged 1380cc mini. The only other thing that could compete for overall noise/feel and overall experience was an austin ruby converted to a single seat running a a small turbo t25 duratec built to accelerate as hard and as fast as you dare to push it. With the price of these cars now id be looking to retromod something older and make it unique and built with purpouse.

As much as I love the R-34, it's realistically not worth the current prices compared to alternatives (especially since they're starting to become SUPER inflated in price. But it's still one of those cars you'd want to drive at least once within your life time, no doubt.

I’d say no from my experience but it’s not just the R34 GT-R all of these 90s JDM cars people fan girl over hard are not worth the money of modern day. I’d rather have something that does not need to be built to be competitive and to have fun in.
