Paul - Would love to have a drive! Although I may not give you back the keys... Steve - I have been exposed!!!!

Well done Paul on trying a different route to what everyone else usually takes. You (and Unigroup ) have done very well to get the flex fuel and crank trigger working in sync to produce an awesome result. I must say I've been in (and driven) many GTR's but your car scared me a little being a passenger at Winton. I'm not a good passenger at best of times but the way this thing accelerated out of the corners was something else. It kinda of reminded me of Tangomatt's car, it's on early and the progressive and copious amounts of power just made this car feel bullshit fast. As I said to you at the Nats, if only I had this sort of power (and delivery) in my car back in the day.... Look forward to jumping in for another ride at next year's Nats....

Yeah I enjoyed going through all the pics and seeing how other people's cars have changed aswell. I'm glad I saved them all over the years... Cheers for the compliments...

Cheers for the kind words guys, good to see your enjoying the pics. Some of you are in the pics aswell if you look closely.. I'm told the new owner is enjoying it very much...

Sorry mate, sold a while back now. Only the R34 GTR sump/diff remains....

Thanks for the kind words Peter, check the vic section for a small writeup and history of the car. You have one neat car yourself with tasteful mods to boot, you should be proud.... Sad to see it go but unfortunately have to move on.....

Sandown track day August 2007 SAUVIC Show'n'Shine December 2007 - Trophy for 'Best R33 GT-R' November 2008 re-sprayed the front of the car due to 'battle scars' from track days, fitted aerocatch bonnet pins and colour coded the front lip November 2010 fitted the Alcon V8 supercar brakes to the car May 2011 photoshoot for Performance Imports magazine Well that's enough photos for now. Over the years the car punched out the following times: Calder - 1:02.4 Phillip Island - 1:46.3 Sandown - 1:18.7 Winton - 1:33.4 Eastern Creek - 1:47.1 Oran Park GP (Superlap 2008) - 1:20.2 (on street tyres) I'm going to hold off buying another car for now, since I have the Evo to play around with on the track. Maybe in 4-5 years time I will look at getting another GT-R, R35's will be much more affordable by then...

Well as most of you would know i recently put my car up for sale due to basically not having the time to enjoy it. Family and business commitments have taken a priority so unfortunately it had to go. Well on Thursday the new owner took delivery of the car, and walking away from it for the last time left me kind of empty inside. It was a hard decision to let it go but after 3 years of minimal use I had to be logical. After retiring it from track duties in 2008 I had the intention of building a 'dedicated' track car as I could not cope with the punishment and wear on the exterior, it was too nice to destroy the front of the car with chips and scratches from flying debris at over 200km/h. So I bought another rolling shell to transfer many of the quality parts required to build a track car (brakes, suspension, seats etc.) and had decided to use the 'ex-track' car for street duties. I inteneded on going 2.8 stroker with new track car, aswell as putting it on a serious diet. Well during this process plans changed in the form of 'acquiring' a cheap Evo 7. Yes I always bagged them and had never considered buying one but for the price I was offered to buy it was too good to let go. Plus by this stage the cost of finishing the track car was becoming very scary and unattractive, and being in the process of building a new house the logical thing to do was can the GTR track car project and keep the Evo to get my 'fix' on the track. After all it had been 3 years since I has driven on a track in anger, so it was a cheap way of getting back into it, even though the Evo was going to be slower and putting up with the 'hair dresser' jokes. Having bought the car back in 2002, it went through many different stages, from being a bone stock car to one of the quickest street registered full trim track cars in Victoria, the journey has been memorable one, and spending copious amounts of cash along the way I can honestly say I don't regret it. The amount of satisfaction I've had from this car definetly outweighs the bad times (yes there were quite a few). Over this time the car has won many awards, from both car shows and track days. In 2007 I came first in the SAU Motorsport Championship, as well as the WRX Club Championship. Anyway. enough of the bragging, the main purpose of this thread was to look back at the different stages the car had undergone, and to remember the good times (for me anyway). Most of you would have seen the car from cruises back in the early days to the track days it was attending on a regular basis from 2005-2008. I'm assured the new owner will look after her just like I did over the years, and frankly, got an absolute bargain. I won't say who it is but it is a fellow club member and somebody I've known for many years through the car scene. I'm sure you will find out soon enough... The car is also featured in the current issue (No.141) of Performance Imports magazine for those interested. OK, onto the pics..... Early days, back in 2004..

They sure did, at a bargain price to boot. The car is now SOLD.

Stayed on the car...

LOL Marcus!!!! Long time no see! Hope your well mate. Car is featured in the current Performance Imports magazine (Issue 141) for those interested in a read. May I also request that people stop sending PM's about selling the exhaust, it's already being enjoyed by somebody else. The car is also SOLD pending payment.

Wasn't included in the sale from the start...

OK, Racepace exhaust removed, replaced with a HKS stainless steel front pipe, super hiflow cat and 3.5 inch stainless steel cat back of Jap origin. Car still sounds quiet with this exhaust, will definetly not attract unwanted attention. Momo steering wheel also removed from car and replaced with standard airbag wheel. Greddy radiator removed and replaced with standard radiator, engine bay looks even more standard now... PRICE REDUCED TO $33,500 or nearest offer.... P.S, Thanks all for the kind words.

Here's a couple of pics of the interior and engine bay. Will get more soon....

Thanks for the kind words guys, appreciate it... Mickeyz - first person to come see the car was sold on it. Unfortunately he had problems with insuring it, being below 25 years old and his driving history is not helping. Hes still trying to work out a way to make it work. Either way it's still for sale as no deposit has been taken. More pictures still to come, waiting to get them off the photographer. Cheers, Jack

Tein RS coil overs and R34 GT-R sump and diff still for sale...

Thanks LTHLRB and NickR33, appreciate the comments... Mikeyz, will get some up very soon, but there's not much too see, looks standard except for catch can and alloy radiator, although it does have the R34 GTR NUR emblem cover and Nismo oil and radiator caps. Oh, and forgot to mention in the original post it also has a Bosch 040 in tank pump and tinted windows.....

X-force dumps SOLD pending payment....

Standard bare head SOLD pending payment. X-force dumps, Tein RS coilovers and R34 GT-R sump and diff still for sale....

Racepace complete head SOLD pending payment....

End of an era indeed, almost a decade!!! Cossie would be nice, if I had time to enjoy it... Awesome pics Jarrod! Hope you didn't mind me using one here.... Will talk to you about getting a high res one for a poster I want for memories....

Cheers for the comments guys, it really has been a great car, gonna be hard to see her drive away into the sunset.... Forgot to mention the car will come with a RWC, I have a standard bonnet also, although it is white. If new owner does not want the Z-TUNE bonnet I will get the standard bonnet painted in silver. I have quite a bit of interest in the aftermarket bonnet, will see how it goes but will remain on the car for now...

Time has finally come to move on my 1995 R33 GT-R. Due to not having the time these days to enjoy it I’m putting it for sale for somebody else to experience the satisfaction I have had over the years. If you are looking for a cheap GT-R I will suggest you stop reading on, this is not a clapped out car that has done over 150,000kms with average paint work and minimal mods. This car has had a sh!tload of money, time and development thrown at it, with a goal of having a fast track car that can be enjoyed on the street without unwanted attention and look like it just drove out of the showroom. If this interests you READ ON! HISTORY OF THE CAR: I bought this car back in 2002, and was chosen after 6 months of searching due to the strict criteria I was after. It was completely stock, except for some 18 inch wheels and TEIN HA coilovers. Performance wise it was all factory, including airbox and exhaust. The car was inspected by a qualified panel beater to make sure it hadn’t been involved in an accident, in which it passed with flying colours. I am the first owner in Australia and the car had 58,000km on it. Over the years the car has undergone a full rebuild regarding the driveline, suspension and brakes by the infamous Ben from Racepace Motorsport with the goal of being a quick track car without sacrificing the comfort and driveability of a street car. In fact this car was a development car with Ben’s own R33 GT-R for Racepace Motorsport, where it underwent many changes to get the best result. This resulted in the car doing a 1:18.7 (back in 2007) at Sandown, making it one of the fastest street registered, full trim, low mount turboed GT-R’s in VIC. The car was retired from track duties in 2008, where the engine was rebuilt and since has done around 500km of street driving. The front of the car including the bonnet, front guards, grille, front bar, front lip, side skirts and rear bar were resprayed due to the ‘battle scars’ after 2 years of solid track days. I have driven the car four times in the last 2 years, and it is now in storage collecting dust due to my business and family commitments. Aswell as being a quick track car this car has attended many shows in it’s lifetime, where it has won many trophies along the way. It had been deemed ‘Best R33 GT-R’ 3 years running with the SAU VIC club show’n’shine, a testament to the quality of the exterior and the tasteful (and minimal) appearance mods. Anyway, here are some details on the car. NISSAN SKYLINE GT-R R33 (1995 model) ENGINE SPECS/MODS: - Racepace built forged engine with mods to block for strength/reliability - Forged pistons (86.5mm) - New R34 GT-R crank - Nissan N1 oil and water pumps, Nismo thermostat - Racepace cam gears - Recoed head with new valves/seals etc... - Standard cam shafts - HKS GT-SS turbos with actuators - Trust/SARD 720cc injectors - Nismo fuel pressure regulator - Nismo airflow meters - Trust/Greddy aluminium radiator - HKS Type-S oil cooler - Custom Racepace twin 3 inch full exhaust (Huge airflow but very quiet) - Trust 76mm thick intercooler - Power FC with hand controller - Custom Racepace catch can GEARBOX - Standard gearbox with Redline fluid - Nismo Super Coppermix Twin plate clutch EXTERIOR MODS: - Nismo 'Z-TUNE' style bonnet with aerocatch flush mount bonnet pins - Series 3 Xenons - Series 3 lower lip colour coded - Border carbon fibre front bar air ducts (painted matt black) - Genuine R33 GT-R rear pods - Nismo front and side clear indicators - Nismo B-pillar CF garnish - Nismo CF spoiler end plates - Genuine Ganador mirrors (colour coded) INTERIOR MODS: - MOMO Race leather steering wheel with quick release hub (original wheel supplied) - Nismo white face 320km/h dash with matching triple centre gauges - Custom carbon fibre dash surround (including gear surround and driver’s side window switches) - Apexi RSM - Series 3 interior (seats/door trims/rear quarter trims) - Nismo gear knob - Defi boost gauge in Trust A-pillar mount - Alpine 9855R headunit, Soundstream Splits front, Alpine 6.5 inch 3 ways rear, VDO 4 channel amp mounted under driver’s seat.

If you have any doubts or want to find out about the condition of the car other than contacting myself you can contact Chris from Racepace Motorsport to confirm condition or any performance related enquiries. The car would have done around 70,000km by now, not exactly sure as I replaced the original dash with a Nismo item a few years back. The engine bay looks stock besides the Racepace catch can which has been painted black, cam covers and twin turbo pipe have also been freshly painted in black, also runs a standard airbox. The car truly is a remarkable street car and with the quiet twin custom exhaust you don’t have the fear of being pulled over by the boys in blue every time you take it for a drive. Focus on keeping it looking and sounding as standard as possible was high priority when building this car. PRICE: $37000 ono The car is currently located in Narre Warren North in VIC, inspections are welcome but please no tyre kickers, this is a unique car and is a bargain for the money invested and with a fresh motor to boot. PM or reply here if interested. Here are some pics, will provide more in the next few days...

Exactly what I would want my car to look like if I had a R34 GTR.
