      If all the GTT has is a fender conversion then yeah, wow, BUT, if the car has a FULL GTR conversion along with suspension, brakes, wheels and tires then $80k isn't far off. Price it all out, ALL of it, not just a fender swap...

      I've been wondering about just wide bodying a skyline r34 & swapping it to what ever. Like a 1jzgte or whatever. Anything feasible & fun. What made me think this is the Nissan Laurel is essentially the same car as a regular r34 Skyline is it not? So if you prefer the tails on a r34 then a regular skyline with a bit of body work & power plant upgrades would make a car usably worth double in the right owners hands I think.

      @RoadsUntraveled  Рік тому +3

      Are you able to provide a link to any 100% stock R34 GTRs with halogen lights? As far as I know all R34 GTRs were equipped standard with xenons. The halogens (downgrade) were not an option. The xenons were an option (upgrade) on other R34 models, including the GTT (as mentioned in the video). I've personally never seen an R34 GTR with halogens from the factory, but if you have any additional info i'd love to see it!

    Currently GTT's and GTV's in fair condition are going for between 30 and 40k and I think that's a fair price. A GTR converted 25GT FOUR is going for 28k, a pristine GTT for 50k and a curb kicked GTT Auto is going for 8k. I was at an auction looking at a beat up GT-V Sedan auto and I almost bought it. Opening bid was 6 dollars. Then the third bid was 3k. At that point I was out.

    I actually prefer the rear end on the GT-T opposed to the GTR rear end. The GTR has a much higher side body line. I think the GT-T looks sleeker and smooth if on the right rims and those 5 spoke rims look very nice. Not quite the perfect set of rims but very good looking set. If stanced properly then perfect car having GTR front end with a GT-T rear end.
