  2. Hi All, I'm looking to sell my '93 R33. I've had the car for over 10 years and it's been my daily drive. It's done 210,000kms and has been a very reliable car during this time and a lot of fun too! I've modified a bunch of things, such as the turbo, ECU, exhaust, etc... and it has about 330hp (250kW) at the rear wheels on 17psi of boost (tuned & tested by Sam at Dr. Drift in Tottenham - he is a master!). Below are some pics and a list of most of the modifications: - Apexi Power FC with hand commander - HKS GT2535 ball bearing turbo - 3 inch turbo back exhaust - Larger intercooler - 550cc injectors - Splitfire coil packs - Blitz Electronic Boost controller - Apexi Rev Speed Meter - Auto Meter Boost gauge - HSD Coilovers - 18 inch Drift R ROH rims (deep dish rear rims) - DBA 4000 T3 slotted front brake discs with Bendix Ultimate brake pads (discs and pads both recently fitted) - Set of stock rims and subwoofer box with amplifier (not currently connected) - Front steering arms and rear HICAS lock bar …and other bits and pieces that I can barely remember. It's a beautiful looking car and I always keep it in the garage. There are some minor blemishes on the bodywork, but they are not very noticeable. Mechanically the car is in very good running order. I've never been harassed by police for driving this car because it looks clean and stock standard. The car has VIC rego till the 20th of September 2014. I'm asking $7,500ono. The price is negotiable and I will consider any serious offer to buy (not interested in swapping). You're welcome to bring your mechanic along for an inspection. Feel free to contact me (Nick) via email or my mobile with any questions or to make an offer.

Have spent over $65k on the car in the last 12 months. Will sell the JGTC33 plates with the car, as they'd be no use to anyone else. Whole front end has been replaced and painted, with new headlights from Nissan when engine was built in September 2013. Car is been registered in Victoria as is, no issues with police, it is legal in every way from the seats, harnesses, rollcage, 100mm height clearance and EPA passed. This is driven daily and insured with Shannons for a decent agreed value.
  4. Hi all, I've been a member on here for a little while now, but have only start becoming fully active in the last few months. I purchased my silver R34 GTT last year around mid-August I think it was. Appearance wise it was completely stock, but it had a few performance goodies. It was nice to finally get a turbo car, my first car was a '94 Suzuki Swift GTi, and after that I had a '00 S15 Autech, both were nice, but obviously wouldn't compete with this performance wise. I live in Dubbo NSW, where there are a few imports getting around, but not many, mostly P platers in non-turbo Supra’s haha. At the time of purchase the Skyline had the following mods: Apexi Power FC + hand controller (tuned prior to the hiflow turbo to 206kw) e-Boost2 Hiflowed turbo Splitfire ignition coils Trust front mount intercooler (retaining factory piping holes) Trust pod filter 3" turbo back exhaust JVC head unit It also has a factory sunroof. Not something I was looking for but figured it was a bonus, though, after driving it for a few weeks I realised how tiny it was The car had close to 150,000kms on it, but the previous owner who lived in bathurst was a guy in his mid-thirties who had owned the car since 2001 and had all receipts from when it was imported, its services, and all work carried out on it. He was pretty meticulous. The km's didn't bother me after seeing the condition of the car and meeting the guy. We settled on a decent price and I was a happy Skyline owner I will also note that this is my secondary ‘toy’ car. I own a VY Commodore for my daily duties, and because my girlfriend is at university and I wanted something easy to travel in, so it does that well. At first I didn’t do anything to the car, I wanted to drive it for a little bit and enjoy it without spending money. It only took me a couple of weeks before I decided to pull off the NEO engine cover though, and also take out the factory air intake ‘snorkel’. It looks pretty crappy but I wasn't a big fan of the cover either. After a couple of months of ownership I decided to head to a local drag meet which is a 1/8th mile, held at an old airport near Wellington. I went with a friend who has a Sil80 pig. Wasn’t expecting any amazing results, just wanted to go for the fun of it and ‘play’ in a legal environment. It’s the only ‘track’ related thing I can do without travelling 4 hours. I had a number of runs throughout the day, and was improving each run, until my diff begun to play up. It started doing singles and was launching terribly. I think the best run I managed was a low 9.3. I know I could’ve definitely done better, but I was still learning. After the drags I obviously needed to fix the diff, so I decided rather than repair it or replace it with a stock diff I would go a 1.5way. I decided to go with the Nismo Pro GT LSD 1.5way so I ordered this online. While waiting for the diff I bought some second hand King Springs and Bilstein shocks from a forum member. I decided it was time to fix the ‘boat-ish’ look the Skyline had. They never turned up. Luckily, having paid using PayPal I got my money back, and bought another second hand set of springs on eBay. I chose spring for the current time as after putting coilovers on the S15 I previously owned I got sick of the roughness on the ‘country’ roads too quick. Once these turned up I got a mate to help me fit them and I was amazed at the difference. It looked better and drove firmer too, but still not rough. Once lowered I decided I needed to source some wheels. I kept my eyes on the forums and soon found a set of Rota DPT 18x9.5 +22 for sale with tyres for a reasonable price. So I purchased these. I was a little unsure how the fitment would go, but from what I read I was hoping they would be fine. I also rolled the rear guards in preparation for them, just using one of the the ‘cheap’ eBay guard rollers. This worked a treat. When the wheels turned up they had a few more marks around them to what was pictured/described, possible because of the poor ‘protection’ the seller provided when having the wheels delivered. But anyway, I guess that’s part of the risk you take when buying second hand. I got home from work the next day and went to fit the wheels all excited and discovered that my wheel nuts were not going to fit. I raced around town trying to find some that would fit to no luck. As a result I bought some 50mm extended wheel nuts from Cartel Aus, and opted for blue ones, as I thought they would match the black wheels on the silver paint. Once these arrived I fitted the wheels and was happy with the appearance. Not quite ‘build’ related, but I went for a bit of a drive one weekend when I had nothing better to do with a mate Kam, also a member on here, who just recently purchased a R32 GTR. Originally I was just going over to visit him (about an hours drive) and we would drive to Mudgee for lunch. This ended up in about an 11hr round trip drive for me after we decided to drive all the way to Bathurst and cruise around Mount Panorama before heading home. Next the diff arrived and I tried to find somewhere local to fit it. After being refused service by about 5 different local ‘transmission and differential’ shops, absolute joke but I guess that’s half the trouble with living ‘rural’ with an import, I finally found someone who would fit the diff for me. I must say, best thing I have done to a car so far. After driving the car for 20minutes I felt like I learnt so much. The car felt so much nicer to drive too. After fitting the diff I haven’t done much with the car, just been driving it around to bed in the new diff. Did go for a cruise out of town with a mate in his XR6 and a couple of mates with bikes. I attended a local car show with Kam in his GTR and a couple of other mates, who had R32 GTST, XR6 turbo and a Supra (N/A). It was good to attend this and push some local support for imports. I wanted to do this because the ‘charity car show’ had about 16 trophies covering Holden, Ford, muscle, bikes, utes, even ‘country utes’ and tractors, but nothing for imports. We gave them a bit of shit about it haha. Ahh to be in the country *bliss*. After the event we went for a bit of a drive. Along the way, the clutch slipped in 3rd gear, and later slipped in 2nd and 3rd. Time for a new clutch. Because I’m saving for a month’s holiday in Japan my budget is tight. But I wanted to replace it as there is a motorkhana event on locally at Easter which I want to attend, and have already paid to enter. I picked up an Exedy heavy duty clutch (just a basic one) on eBay for cheap that was coming out of a wreck. I received that a couple of days ago and am going to get a couple of mates to help with getting that fitted. Soo… this gets us to present time. Let me know what you guys think and I’ll update more as things happen Tim
  5. After owning my 1999 R34 GTT for almost 6 years, I thought I'd start a build thread. Since my car will most likely never be for sale, I wanted to share my journey of my pride and joy - the good, bad and the ugly. (Disclaimer: The car isn't or isn't going to be a 1000hp monster, but it's just a worthy street car that sometimes sees the track) Like many other cars and projects out there, this wasn't a smooth sailing journey, it had lots of ups and downs, lot's of blood, sweat and swears. I've been on SAU since 2007, started my Skyline career with a 1996 R33 Series 2 GTS, imported from Japan via J-Spec Imports, when I was 18 years old. It wasn't long until I had a 'little' accident in it, literally 2 days after it was complied and registered: Since then, I learned to respect the power and RWDness of the car, even though it's N/A. After having the R33 for 2 years, I felt the need for something quicker and better, soon after, the R33 was up for sale and this is her when she was sold: Now the story begins... About 1 week or so after the fund from the sale was cleared, I started looking at a new car, and I always knew I wanted another Skyline. At first, I was just going to put the fund into a Series 2 R33 GTST, but I thought it was going to be way too similar to my N/A, in terms of the look and feel. So I dug into my piggy bank and decided to get a R34 GTT. I wanted a silver R34 with an Altia kit all along, but at the point in time, they were going for around $20,000. And I was just earning $12 an hour at Safeway, so there was no way that I could afford that. One Friday night, I jumped onto Carsales hoping some new cars would have popped up and lucky that I did, a new 1999 R34 GTT in yellow has been added 3 hours earlier, for $15,500 (in 2009). So I quickly gave the owner a call and arranged to see it the next morning (Saturday). When I rocked up at the apartment complex in Southbank, inside the dark secured car park, there she was... Sitting in a corner by herself, just glowing... I started her up for the first time, for a test drive. Sitting in the driver's seat in awe of the more modernised interior compared to my R33, that's when I fell in love with her. Took her out into the empty streets, slightly blipping the throttle to feel what she was capable and wow, it felt incredible, the sensation of being on boost for the first time in my life lol... As soon as I got back to the carpark, I immediately arranged a deal with the seller subject to RWC. On the Wednesday the following week, the R34 was mine, I always loved yellow cars in Grand Turismo on Playstation, but I never once thought I'd actually own or drive one. The R34 was fairly stock, it came with: - 18" Buddyclub's, 18x8+35, 18x9+35. - Teins Type Flex coilovers - Blitz PowerSUS pod filter - Blitz return flow intercooler - Nismo front pipe and catback with muffler (very quiet on idle) - 3" dump
